Release an update every year!
You're putting too much pressure on this dev!
The dev puts the pressure on the dev...not the consumers. The dev makes the promises of release dates. The dev decides what goes in the game. The dev decides how much time they can/want to spend on it. The consumers come here and whine about broken promises, but in no way does that put pressure on the dev. There have been multiple times the dev said the next update would be released, and then at release time, come up with an excuse as to why it wasn't released. This has been going on for over a year. Expect comments to be what they are.

New delay, that half of the nightclub dialogue is real tough. So in addition to the week it's already taken, its 'probably' going to take another week.

This man has no shame...

IMO the strengths of the game are the images and the story.
The dev keeps working on game mechanics that have little to do with the strengths of game.

I've been beating my head against the Stone King dungeon for hours now. When did this game go from being a cute parody of WoW with occasional futa sexytimes to being a nightmarish slog through aggravating puzzle rooms and overpowered bosses?

Imagine if this guy was an employee or hired on a contract (as he kind of is by his patrons). You'd never accept this endless stream of bullshit. He'd be fired on the spot months ago. His excuses absolutely stink and anyone with at least half a brain could detect how flimsy they are. He's either pulling off the classic Patreon scam of stringing the work out forever so the project never ends and the donations keep coming for minimal effort or he's procrastinating as pointed out before and doing nothing for that reason.

He was supposedly going to do all that stuff inside the week and one missing dialogue means he's going to need another day...then a week and then we'll be waiting for a Christmas release instead. Suckers. Then we'll have not even a single update in a year. For an RPGM game he's being paid to update!!

It has already been over 15 months since the last update.
And the single room's only half-missing dialogue, in addition to having already taken over a week, is scheduled to take another one.

Please don't diminish this man's failings with your honeyed words.:LOL:

15 months!! It's hard to even keep track of his failings at this rate. It's all blurred into one big stinking heap of excuses and lies. He probably will release something eventually but we all know it's going to be a half-assed thing and not going to reflect 15 months of working full time on it, 8 hours a day, five days a week. Heck, it won't even look like he just worked two days a week for 15 months. It'll be a stupid puzzle, another added mechanic that will get used for one minigame or something and a tiny dribble of story and images, the thing that everyone is actually waiting for and you can be sure the patreons are paying for too if they were honest. No one is blown away by the shitty minigames in this so much they're going to pay a subscription for years for them. Many people would just press a button to skip them if they could. There's better freeware out there. The saddest part is that when the too little too late update comes out the fanboys will gobble up the meagre scraps scraped onto the floor and thank him for it, the sunk cost and buyer's remorse aversion effects dig them in deeper with every payment.

The whole Patreon thing has got beyond ridiculous for these spongers and scam artists. It is now habitual and almost expect that it gets abused and people get exctited when someone...actually works and keeps in communication with the people paying them. At what point can people just agree something is a scam or being abused? Another week to correct a couple lines of dialogue in RPGM?? It sure feels like 15 months with nothing to show for it is a viable candidate for it to have turned into a scam. This guy makes that bum that "works" on the eternally threadbare Newlife look like a workaholic. The sad thing is that unlike most when he does work he can make good stories and images. What a waste of talent!
