So disappointing. It's obvious when the excuse for a delay comes at the last possible moment that it is complete bs.
- Thread starter Retro
- Start date
i'm kinda sure that the game will be finished before the human race extintion, but i have doubts
Easily the best Grifting Sim game on the entire site. Thanks Based Alishia.

Worse thing about this is even when it does get an update it won't be worth the wait
in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and alishia postponing the update

Well, her statement in November was that the next update will consist primarily of erotic scenes, so there's that. But you're probably right, in that it probably won't be enough content to justify the five month (so far) delay.

That's actually not being honest, though. She has worked on the game in the past two years, as we can see by the fact that she's released two updates in the past twelve months. They weren't big enough updates to justify the wait, so she's obviously not working hard enough or often enough, but she is working, at least once in a while.
That's not the way to make a game successful, though. She needs to be working on it consistently.

Good grief. If you want people to stop saying nasty mean things all you gotta do is lock the thread.
No no, let's delete posts and leave the pointless thread open for people to ask pointless questions in so everyone that has it watched can get an alert every day.
I suppose above user could be playing some sort of con...

Once again, they aren't going to lock the thread.Good grief. If you want people to stop saying nasty mean things all you gotta do is lock the thread.
If you're tired of getting alerts, you can always unwatch the thread.

I'm no moderator but from my understanding the posts were deleted because they were a clear derail from the post.
It was okay to say that the excuse used from Alishia this time was BS because whatever reason they had that I'm not going to repeat, but they then went to discuss about politics between countries and whatever and thats a big no no. This is a good forum and we only want to have fun with erotic games hahaha.
Said that I also feel that this time Alishia just used the current situation in Rusia to excuse her lack of work.
Let's be real, a lot of people are using these trying times where we need to keep outside contact to a minimun to work more on personal projects (drawing, writing stories, reading or, in this context, making indie games). This also coincides with a time where the digital industry is incredible popular for similar reasons (online work and all that jazz).
That instead of doing even more work and making use of this oportunity and free time Alishia is failing to keep her promises it's just more proof that she is not indisposed for whatever reason she feels that month and is just being lazy and using whatever happens each month to excuse her behaviour. Which makes everything she does even more suspect and kind of feels a bit scammy.
I mean, you can even read it from the messages that she sends. After a few delays she still said that she "didn't work" on the update so she needed more time and now that she said that she would be adding mostly art she still delayed without saying how far she was xD And all this after saying that the "hard" part was already done and that the next updates would be shorter... Her own words ("I hope to restore your trust with the subsequent updates which will take ~2.5 months to release." "Why so much faster then? Because even if you will not be able to see it I have laid a good foundation for more content in the future (mostly story-wise) and the MOST boring and unmotivating technical stuff will be already done.")
After she said that she took a year to release the (hard) update, version 0.2. Then the one that was suposed to be 2,5~ months took around 7~ months, version 0.3. And now another 6-7~ months later we are still waiting for the next one, version 0.4.
PS: Take an imaginary potato for the long post

Your timing with this post is quite ironic. Alishia resurfaced on her Discord channel just a few hours ago. Her statement is that she was at the protest, was arrested or otherwise detained, and is now facing charges in court and a fine. Also, she states that she can currently only go online with her phone, and won't be able to access her computer for another week.
The people who are inclined to disbelieve her will say what's already been said, that this is just her fastening on to a convenient circumstance as an excuse to delay again. And they may be right. Personally, I'm inclined to believe her, and I'm sympathetic to her position, given the political situation. However, I still maintain that this situation would not have been a problem for her update schedule, if she had just finished the update a month or two ago, or five months ago, when it was scheduled to be released.

Also ironic that she was last seen on F95 today at 8:20 AM. Which means they most likely visited the thread saw what everyone was posting about the protest stuff and decided well I better go make an announcement saying that I was at the protests and got arrested.
