Okay, finally finished this game to its current version end.
Gif related is me at the end of Luna's childhood story. Well done man, God damn well done. Fuck the porn, I'm here for more writing like this now, you've activated my full attention and higher expectations now. Take your fucking time if it results in more chapters like this one.

lol definite contender for most moving, emotion grabbing scene from all games I've played. (y)
Joel & Ellie's story in original The Last of Us was emotionally strong.
Then I played this & Luna's backstory hit me. :cry:
"God damn, well done" indeed! (y)

Haven't played this game yet I will soon but holy the character design is absolutely stunning every character is so clear looking I actually looked at this and didn't realize they were 3d characters I thought they were real porn stars (i.e real people).
You might want to hold off because with the next release, due to HopesGaming redoing some of the gameplay mechanics, current saves won't work. Everybody will need to start over.

I'm well aware we won't get any Cordia events for the upcoming update (with it being focused largely on Contracts overhaul, Eiza's sister rescue mission & gameplay), but damn can't deny I'm so much in thirst for some Cordia events. :ROFLMAO::LOL:

Who else feels the same way?

Get in line pal all jokes aside, there are a few of us who have the 'thirst' for some Cordia events.

So I go offline for about a week and I get dozens of pages in this thread AFTER I am guessing several thread purges. Do you think it would be better for all involved to give this an Abandoned tag and maybe the requests for the tag and when is the next update will go away. Then when the update comes out, update the OP but not the title and tags and let us enjoy the game without all the Filius posts? I know it is a stretch to think they might actually see the tag and we know they never read the OP so we could hide the new version there. It would also have to stay off the latest updates page.

I'm not concerned about exposing this plan here in the open on the thread since they seem incapable of reading back a page or two so it will just fade into the background noise.

Plus if it was listed as Abandoned, it would take all the stress off Hopes to actually release something and he could concentrate on the last bits and slip it to us on the down low.

The idea of tags definitions is to keep them. If you start making exceptions, the tags lose all meaning. "Is this game abandoned as in Deluca, abandon as in the definition, abandoned as if bla bla bla", which renders the whole tag system pointless.

Current definition is this.
Abandoned: The game has been abandoned (confirmed by the dev) or the developer hasn't posted anything related to the game for at least 3 months.

I'm not sure whether you're saying this as a joke or not, but I'll assume you're serious about it all.
Trolls will be trolls regardless whether there is a tag or not. They're here when the tags are not here, and they'll still be present even if this game has the Abandoned tag on it.

As Ayhsei elegantly put in his answer to you before me, the tags are there for a reason, as an indicator of what the actual status of the game is (whether it's on hold, abandoned etc etc).

All it takes is for people to read what it says, on the OP, and the recent couple of pages of what the status of the game is on the project, and if people can't find any info in the OP or past couple of recent pages to find what they're looking for, then I have no problem helping those folks point out where to look (the problem is, most of this subset of people asking "is it abandoned?" question, are just people who only look at the last update date and nothing else, and don't bother reading anything else. They expect to be spoon-fed without trying for themselves).

Also, by putting an "Abandoned" tag, this will actually harm Hopes, the Dev in general than benefiting him. Because when it has Abandoned tag, what most new people will tend to do is to not even bother trying the game out at all since it says abandoned (I know I did that for a lot of abandoned titles out there on f95).
There just won't be any growth in the people playing the game. Sure, people who stuck around from the beginning, or for a long time till now will know it's not and stick around, but most likely all newbies won't know that. They'll just look at the title and the tag, and ignore it.

Just isn't a very practical solution in my opinion.

Then, there is the fact that this site is run strictly by the rules without exceptions regarding its rules, and tags and the definitions. If somehow things get changed and this is given an abandoned tag when it's not, well........ it's gonna be the first game in the history of f95zone to go through it (and I find that to be really, really unlikely).

Welcome to the club mate :) Let me ask you something if it is okay with you, who is your favorite girl?

Pretty much every De Luca family fan I suppose? My crown jewel is Luna but she is still the Blizzard Queen, I am dying learn (and see of course :ROFLMAO:) about her.

A good one, LMAO :ROFLMAO: but rules are actually meant to be not broken regardless the reason. (JJJ84 explained magnificiently why, I wont add something more :))

Why would expetations of some people affect the work process? The dev has not signed any contracts with anybody and every patreon is free to end their "sponsoring" any minute if they don't like the progress being made.
I'm pretty certain the dev has full focus on it and will release in a couple of weeks, regardless of pressure being put on him by people who want to play the game (which in my opinion is like the best positive feedback for your came one can get).

I don't worry about these kinds of things because I only play completed games. I can't handle the loss of a game being abandoned so no matter how good a game looks I won't touch it without a complete tag and so it prevents me from being disappointed (Also stops me from playing 50+ different games at the same time.). Thanks for the heads up though!

What are you ? With that much willpower, there so little one can't achieve.
I can only skip 3-4 updates. But waiting for completion is on another level. Even it is pointless from one perspective, because some stories can lose its meaning over the time.

Partly a good strategy if you dont like waiting, I am doing this for TV series but in patreon or on this forum etc, its not so good
The developer cant get a feedback from you, so you cant participate the process with your thoughts which may be make the game better. Let me give you two examples from this game;

1 - After a lot of people found contract system boring due to farming, grindig and a bit harder (too many clicking) HopesGaming decided to remake it and now a much more promising contract system awaits us in this update

2 - Luna was meant to be the main girl of this game plot at the start and Gracies route was like a railroad (this was my understanding from older post about game, if I mistaken about this I am sorry) but now HopesGaming considering (nothing certain, dev just said "may be") add a friendship to both Gracie and Luna according to feedback.

Considering that, following updates and giving feedbacks to dev is more rewarding strategy I think.

Well then you are not playing this game any time soon as you said, because the story is really just starting. My best guess is come back in a year or two.

Will the new update change old scenes, story or mechanics?
I heard somewhere that the missions will get an overhaul.

I was planning on replaying the game from the start (like i always do lol), but if the update affects the old version, i will probably wait for the new version.

Ah, don't worry. I don't mind.
A dev who is not prepared for toxicity shouldn't be a dev.

Ofc, that doesn't mean that everyone who is complaining/dissatisfied is toxic.
Did some dude really make 8 accounts to facepalm you 8 times? Lol

Some people really have issues.

You will have to start from the top again (Start a new game)

Also I'm sure that dude has made more than 8 acts I'm sure it's over 20+
