Shit, waiting for anything in Innocent Witches is tantamount to ascetic training. Innocent Witches has had exactly one scene people asked for in the past two years, and only has three sex scenes after nearly six. Development for the next update for What A Legend! is getting a little long in the tooth, but it's nowhere near as bad as the worst of the worst offenders so far.

Y'all see the last update for Being a DIK? They update something like twice a year and they wasted a full update on a stand alone chapter for a character that only a few people even like, let alone want to see content for. And to make matters worse it was ten minutes long which is a big departure from their usually meaty update. Until WAL does something like that, there's nothing to worry about.
At least Being a DIK release twice a year and Innocent Witches have at least one scene with one of the four main heroines having intercourse with MC. You must play Witch Hunter Trainer that with luck have one release in a year after promises of "end of the month" with no intercourse yet with the heroine on main story but only in bad end that doesn't count as be sure because MC was half hallucinating the entire scene. There is another called Thrallworks Orientation which after a year of the Demo in Ren'py there is still no release in the new Unity conversion but there is nice looking outstanding art in the Patreon that sometimes a bit of it can be seen in the official twitter...

The update is almost 90%. So it might be released in a few weeks.



That is a long time between updates.
Game's popularity increased very quickly so developers had the chance to release 1 maybe 2 updates per yer and took it. It is the standard with these games, regular updates with a lot of content until the game gets very popular, then small updates once or twice a year.

you really think the last update was small? took me at least 2hrs to read and play through it. art was amazing and even though pistachio was critical of his work being a bit dark, i really enjoyed it

And if they released actually small updates with 1 or 2 scenes every 3 months people would complain that it's not enough. People will always cater their narrative around their opinions to justify it to themselves. Have some developers done this? Probably ya, does Magicnuts? Not at all, they even recently released a poll to ask people if they wanted shorter more consistent updated and it was overhwhelmingly voted for the larger updates with 5-7 scenes (Like the last two updates) They also openly admit they don't want the wait to be this long but they're doing their best

84 days from release of 0.2 to 0.3, added 470MB of content. 146 days from release of 0.3 to 0.4, added 670MB of content. 223 days from release of 0.4 to 0.5, added 920MB of content. Added content per day has remained in the 4—6 MB/day range. "small updates once or twice a year" is an objectively false statement if applied to this game.

Maybe we shouldn't pay this attention to someone whose only job in this forum seems to be commenting in this thread about what a lazy and greedy people are this game's devs. Literally 9 out of his 12 posts written in 4 years have been like this one.

Oh damn it's been 7 months? It felt like just yesterday there were arguments leading up to the last release.

Excited for when the next update comes out. They've knocked it out of the park every time so far. I will continue my existence as a polite leech who comes in, checks the tracker, thinks "Not yet, oh well" and doesn't leave weird hate comments. See you guys next time I randomly check in!

Is this update going to be as long or longer than the update with the one-eyed Elf chick?

Genuinely asking. Also there are some LIs that only have 1-2 scenes, is this update for Rose only or can we expect a few scenes for those LIs with 1-2 scenes?

Their current modus operandi is to complete a character arc each update, so don't expect scenes from other characters, maybe a random one or two like Hammerdick in the previous update but mostly expect Rose.

If the last gap was 223 days and the same amount of time is required for this one then it will be 14 days from release.

But the 2 year anniversary is in 10 days :unsure:

And there's the possibility that neither of those dates matter and it will take as long as it takes.

The progress tracker is at 90% and it has been 209 days since release, that means roughly another ~21 days before the tracker is at 100%, and then usually when the tracker is about to hit 100% there's additional bugs and tasks for polishing that are discovered.

So no, I don't think either of those dates are going to matter (maybe they'll have an anniversary post on the patreon) and the release is still more than 3 weeks away.

Why is it taking so long for the update to come out this time?
Your game was one of those that had little delays in updating it was always almost exact......
As for the question you made in the last posts I prefer 10000 times a shorter update of scenes but in a short time than this delay ....... this time it's taking too long
