VN Ren'Py The East Block [v0.7.1] [Bobbyboy Productions]

[FourtySix&2]

Does anyone know what scenes the dev had to remake?

 

[ifss]

Someone said it was about the amount of fluids on Kathryn's face. Unconfirmed because who would make such rules. Even Patreon.

 

[HennKyun]

Although Patreon has some policy rules when it comes to adult content, this will not hinder the overall VN in any major way.

Certainly I did not mean to attack the game or the developer(s) in anyway, I'm here because I loved The East Block. Communication is always appreciated, and at the end of the day we are bound by limitations legal or policy-wise. I just hope nothing beautiful gets lost in the process. Cheers .

There is only so much Patreon can limit when it comes to U.S. creators since they can't impose unconstitutional restrictions to freedom of speech, art, design and expression as that is a given right by law. However, when it comes to countries outside the U.S. then that is something I am not familiar with, but again this is nothing major and will not affect the overall VN. Most countries have some form of freedom of speech and expression as well, so it should be fine.

Lol, that's exactly the other way around. See youtube / twitch, the rest of the world has to follow the puritanistic positions of conservative american groups, because free speech is protecting the individual from the state, it doesn't limit what a company is allowed to censor (or demonetize / suppress in their algorithm)) on their own platform (what is limited is discrimination against specific groups and so on, but that's not because of free speech). If you're not happy with the limit of the platform, you don't have to post your content on it, there are alternatives, so your free speech isn't violated.
Most of the restriction on patreon are most likely due to lobbying from american interest groups (or even more stupid, Patreon being afraid to anger them and preemptively being more strict), and Patreon caves in order to not lose access to the US.

Fellas, the official release for loyalty tier comes out tomorrow or Wednesday according to dev's patreon - an actual firm release window. That gives us a week-ish for the leak to end up here, so early May optimistically.

Quick update

2 hours ago
Hey guys, I wasn't going to post again until the initial release, but I've been seeing a lot of you commenting on my last post about when it's going to be released. I'm very close. I'm expecting late tomorrow or Wednesday to release the first version to loyalty members for testing.
I know you're all waiting patiently and I appreciate that. And to all my Canadian patrons, get out and vote today if you can!

I was actually responding to someone's post about this and stated that I don't believe this will affect the VN game much at all. I don't have any issues with Patreon about their policies except when they screw up as with any company lol. But overall, I agree with some of your views on this but not all. Also, adult sites, which are companies behind adult businesses, are required in some U.S. states to have the user verify their age to make sure they are adults, which is a bit overkill, but I understand the concerns on both sides. I can't speak on things I am not 100% sure about either. I don't believe sites / companies like Patreon or others will be foolish enough to disrupt creators / devs and their works in any major way that can prompt some major legal challenges, and like I mentioned before - I don't believe it will affect The East Block or other VN creators either that use Patreon as it stands now and moving forward. Nothing has really changed.

On a bright note, I'm totally looking forward to The East Block - Chapter 7 - though, which is expected to be released soon! - Cheers!

Ffs, now bro is stuck inbetween the storm without power, this is some bad luck. It's like we take one step closer to the update then two step backwards. It is what it is I guess, stay safe dev.

Power outage.

An hour ago
Hey guys, I’ve been sitting without power for about 5 hours now. Extreme winds have caused power outages all across southern Ontario Canada where I live. I probably have about 10 hours of work to do so as soon as things go back on I’ll get back to it, but for now I’m stuck. I’ll post again once everything is back up and running just to put those that care at ease. I was hesitant to post this as it could come across as an excuse, but since it’s been so long I felt like I should post something especially if it goes on long enough that my phone and ipad both die.
Anyway I’ll check in a bit later hopefully with good news.

So, has Canada officially joined the Third World now?
Did Trump secretly hijack Canada’s power grid or something?

Dude what are you talking about? Tell me what power grid is immune to a severe thunder storm and gusting winds? I live on the other side of Lake Ontario and it was so bad you couldn't see a few feet in front of you. The power went out at work and after two hours of sitting around and playing cards we got sent home. For a good half hour it was like the clouds opened up and just dumped water. Some areas lost power, some didn't. Luckily when i got home I had power.

Yeah, not Canada, but where I am, we've already had a few rounds of incredible severe storms, one that knocked out power for almost for 18 hours and another for 8 odd some hours. And they can't start restoring power when it is lightning every couple or seconds, or you get 40-60mph gusts every 30 seconds.

Also had some minor issues with smaller storms knocking it out for 20-30 minutes, weather has been uncharacteristically severe this early in the season.

Hell, lots of places have it really bad with tornados and absolute devastation.

Storms in spring?!
Thank God I don't live in Canada.

Oh yeah, I got hit by this storm front too, it was pretty intense. No power loss here, but I'm sure up north closer to Canada there were outages.

Just discovered this and wanted to say how much I'm enjoying it. the only suggestion I might make is to the HR lady. Perhaps we could get a different render there because whenever she's on screen, I want to ask her "why the long face?" or perhaps offer her a carrot.

The last few weeks have also been nasty in the upper midwest.

I hope BobbyBoy gets things up and running soon, excited for what should be a meaty update! Nate visit, Clem shenanigans, also maybe subway girl will make a reappearance?

I'm sorry to hear about the power cut, and wish you good luck. I don't mind some delay, just take your time, and hopefully everything is fine or could be fixed.
