Will this morality system, which gives us points for the decisions we make, be important in the future?

And why is it so difficult to understand
I don't understand why installing cameras is moral but audio recording is not and there are more such cases. It's as if the game is judging that being totally ruthless and having no mercy towards your enemies is moral. Is this about mafioso morality and not general morality? But then the game again judges that the fact that Joey used the gun is not moral or that we consider honor and integrity to be important when talking to Serpent. And why is it also moral to remain silent during the attack on the beach house and not to stand up for Luna and Gracie?

"Morality" is the stats term that is used inside the code for the game.
For the player, the game refers to it as "Dispassion" (check the quoted post below)

Here is a screenshot of what you're referring to in the game.

View attachment 3671720

Also, one of my old posts below should help you how to define dispassion:



Tbh though, as I said in the last line of quoted post as of now there is no consequence (yet) as of high in dispassion/high in morality stat or low in dispassion/low in morality stat.
So just choose whatever option you wish to choose.
Hence, High morality stat by code = High Dispassion of MC in game.

As for what's to be done with Morality/Dispassion etc in game's future, I asked Hopes about this back in June and he said it's "yet to be decided."

This is the problem I have had with supporting him. I LOVE the game but he treats his supporters poorly. Even an update a week shouldn't take long. I want to support him but I can't get past this.

Especially considering that he is supposedly working on the game full-time as an actual job
Only when the update drops we'll know whether he was working on the game full time or not. Nothing changed since he left his actual job. It's the same shit ever again like when he had the job. Hell we don't even know if he's not lying about the job.

There's no excuse if you can't be bothered to give an update to his supporters when you are working on the game fulltime. He doesn't even pause the payments when he's supposedly not working.

Not talking about discord. Last time I checked you don't need no money to talk with dev or get updates in discord. I'm talking about the paying supporters in patreon. Also it's not like he made an announcement in discord or something. He dm'd some guy about his status, not about the game status. I see nothing in that post talking about the game of his except that update is nowhere near in sight.

Tell me who should actually get to know about the status of the game first?
Some random non paying supporter in discord or paying supporters in patreon.

I knew that you were gonna get on my ass ass after I made that post lol. It's like your only job is to berate or criticize anyone who says something against hopes.

lol the irony is hilarious seeing you going on and on about supporters and Patreon (2 posts in a row lol), on this site.

If you really are a paying supporter, why even complain about it on a pirate site when you really should be voicing your complaints/criticisms on his patreon?

And if you're not his patron, please don't start with the whole "I'm still saying this for the injustice done to Hopes' Patrons" blah blah.
I've seen idiots use that dumb argument time and time again over the years lol.

I was one, not anymore, drawn my conclusion and I will see, if in the future that will change again. Interesting thing about Patreons are, the neither sheps nor dumb, just your normal average humans. Sure the zone is a bad example for average, but...

So, if someone give or not give his hard earned money to some dev, it is his and only his fucking problem alone. Different people have different opinions and that ends with different result.

I agree, that a dev should inform their supporter somehow regulary on how the status is - no need to write a novel, but few sentence that cover the important part of the message.

I had supported Hopes for 6 months and got tired of getting no updates patreon and I even asked on Patreon about just posting a quick update on the state of the new update. I never got a reply. So asking on patreon didnt help, and against rules on discord.
