Yeah this, and also I think they want to focus on working on the update, instead of reading comments every day on the forum and wasting time. Once the update is released they will again be active here and on the sites.
Devs actually replied and clarified most of the comments, positives, and negatives both. But near the update release, they don't interact much.
Wait, i remember people here being nice to the married couple making the game, they came here often and anwsered questions just few months ago. What happened?
I must have skipped this thread for a month or so...

How is your complaining about them any better?

Its two sides of the same coin. If you don't want pages of shit, let them complain and don't reply back to their BS and you will have helped the problem.
don't see how that would help since they are complaining to the developers who barely reply to them when they get like that, and it doesn't stop, so staying silent is no solution, talking about it and being vocal, in hopes that a few understand what they're doing might change a few minds, better than nothing.

Soon guys, soon..

Everything depends on that debug though looking at the tracker.

Too bad the user who used to post the weekly reports can't do it anymore or not around? Hope their alright regardless.

Definitely a blow to the thread I think.

I think the issue with releasing content like this is that folks who pay (and those who do not, but feel a sense of self-righteousness), feel like they have some kind of ownership and feel cheated, or disrespected (somehow) when their sense of time, or timeline has been violated. This couple is producing one of the best games on this entire site and in the entire genre. The reason why this game is so good, is because this couple takes forever to develop their content and makes damn sure they only present what they feel is the best representation of their art.

The band Tool has been around since 1990 and they have only released 5 albums. Now regardless of what you think of the band, you cannot fault them for not wanting to produce the best possible piece of art that they feel best represents their talent and message as a band. Other artist release music like magazine subscriptions and it's mostly mediocre. This game has yet to be mediocre and this story seems like it is going to be long and detailed. Give them the license to take as much time as they'd like and support their beautifully crafted game. Don't rush them, or force them into the trap of producing dog shit, because you think their timeline should match yours. This is their hobby, not their career. Even if this is their full time gig, art has no timeline.

As a long time Patron of Magicnuts the reason I don't share the Patreon stuff is because this forum which has been mostly supportive has also been extremely toxic and vitriolic towards them as devs. At the early stages of this game Pistachio would directly comment on people posts almost daily and like pretty much every positive comment that was posted. Now I think they tend to avoid it here because it's always the same people freaking out because the game isn't being developed as fast as THEY want.

You could scroll back many pages and see Pistachio answering things like: Why the development takes a long time, why hiring more people is not the solution to that and if they're unhappy how they are willing to refund someone's Patreon pledge. But let's be real the people complaining about those things, especially the "Devs stealing people's money and not working" people have never put a dollar into the game.

All that being said this is what comes with success, the more people who find the game and love it the more people who come to an anonymous forum and say the most negative, cruel and completely untrue things.
This is why I left the discord, as a Patron. One of the more toxic discords I've been on. I'm on NLT's who has way more people there, but yet it's civilized and the mods do a good job enforcing rules and keeping chat to certain channels. Maybe it's because he releases bi-weekly, no idea. But, it's worth taking a look at the difference and how it's handled vs MagicNutz. I feel like it's a prime example of how discord's should be ran and handled.

Yeah, NLT have fixed update schedule, so no one complains about that. Tbf, it's way easier to render 3D assets than drawing 2D assets one by one from scratch. Shame that no one seems to understand fairly simple logic like that.

Did you really got the feeling that Magicnuts' Discord was toxic? Could I ask you why? I find it's quite a chill one, I'm really surprised by your comments (and as a mod I'm very interesed in learning how we can improve)

I swear that progress tracker has been at 97% for the last 4 months at least
I can confirm that your suspicions are not true. I check the progress daily, and it's been moving steadily. Maybe you're looking at the "total polish" tracker, which was a little slow, but the content bar has been moving every 1-2 days.

I am just re-playing this game from the beginning in anticipation for the upcoming release and suddenly I realized that Chestnut must be a huge fan of the renaissance painters Botticelli and Peter Paul Rubens:

The 3 Graces

The birth of Venus

These are some very fine re-imaginations!
Well done!

EDIT: I have added previews of the original paintings for comparison ad educationem populi.
Turns out that 'The 3 Graces' is actually inspired by a painting from Rubens.
Just because you are browsing a naughty forum, it doesn't mean you have to be an uncivilized goof right?
