VN Ren'Py Abandoned Tides of Succession [Ch.3 v0.3] [TakMycket]

[Krytax123]

Seems like the college avn is gonna be abanoned too and now we will get a pirate short story which he already created 900 renders for ... There is a poll on his patreon if anyone can still take this serious.

And they all have "Tides" in the name, which at this point feels like a brand for unfinished ideas

Tak seriously has crazy commitment issues, i already feel bad for his future wife

It's genuinely comical at this point. I've never seen a Dev so determined to bomb his reputation this much before, by chain cancelling his plans and games.

I'm sure he'll stick to this one though...Right guys?

Also I've attached Taks response to the Reddit thread that was talking about this also, for anybody that cares.

He should just admit he messed up and just commit to something, I don't know what his Patreon feedback was but in here most people were telling him it was a bad idea, but he still decided to continue on.

Never quit your stable job to go full-time for this until you are an established developer, it's not going to work unless it's such a low wage job that it doesn't matter, he's not the first to do this, and I think for most of them it has ended badly.

Either commit to something, anything and build from there, or just give it up, at this point I am not too optimistic for any project of his.

Edit: Also Tides of treasure Synopsis:

After an affair lands her mother in danger of execution, Lady Patience Sharington enlists the help of sailor Lawson Winthrope (MC) to help her find the treasure of the once infamous pirate legend, Captain Zacharias Tiderunner in order to pay off her mother’s ransom.

So basically we would get the sequel to Tides of succession without the original ever finishing

tbh at this point id feel id only ever consider playing a game of his again if he went back to Tides of succession or I saw the completed tag

 

[Semak34]

He's the George Costanza of Devs

I guess I should be glad that I only had this on my list of games potentially to play. I have enough games that end up abandoned; I don't really need to add any others.

Another game from this developer? Seriously, why? I think his work is incredible; the guy is talented. Some developers with large audiences should learn from him. He works in such a short time and manages to produce an entire AVN game from scratch, while some take years to release an update. Aside from the ideas Tak possesses and the fact that I think we'll never see a single finished game from him, the guy is talented, but if he continues like this, people will abandon him.

the guy is talented, but if he continues like this, people will abandon him.

absolutely. for those who put Succession on their backlog, like me, the dev already lost me. Add to that the "Abandoned" tag on f95, that impacts the dev's credibility a lot cuz f95 excels in discovery.

And of course ToS isn't even one of the choices. Dude has lost the plot entirely in multiple ways now.

Others have pointed out some negatives to your approach, I'd like to point out something else thou, which comes from 30+ years of work, changes of career are always risky, said risks can be mitigated (to a degree).

A way NOT to mitigate the risks thou is to take a break (1 month long holidays) right after starting a new chapter of your working life/career.
Everyone needs breaks especially to clean up their minds and (re)build "stamina", but said breaks have to be taken BEFORE the new project/life phase starts, not right after its beginning.

As an example you "promised" 2k renders for every update and an update every 2 months, your first month was 285, no biggie issues happen and the start is always rocky, your second month thou just ended and you are going on holidays, the first update will be in January, so possibly 4 months after you started working on it?

You are already 2 months late on a (self imposed, but publicized) 2 months deadline, working on your own/self employment doesn't mean you can be more relaxed on deadlines, quite the opposite, as nobody will pick up your slack, unlike let's say in an office or team.

Best of luck to you TakMycket , I really wish you the best (because I like when creatives succeed) but this is starting to look like a disaster (for you) waiting to happen.

Not that it matters. But when he announced that 2 months deadlines, he also mentioned his vacation. So there's nothing that was announced that is "late".

Not that it matters.

It's really all the same game: Tides of Indecision.
