If that's real, then yeah, what a spit in the face to people that have been supporting the game, especially people that have been paying for it for almost two years and have received nothing in return.

nothing? you call those constant progress reports - nothing?! how dare you...If that's real, then yeah, what a spit in the face to people that have been supporting the game, especially people that have been paying for it for almost two years and have received nothing in return.
LOL i even forgot the update was about Gomira. Imagine its been two years in development and we get 3 scenes with orc pussy and they call it a day- then another 4 years in development. Its almost laughable how slow these devs are. Like snails with fucking asthma. Are they using an iMac from 2003? That would explain the 6 months wait for bug fixes in a goddamn renpy game. Holy shit dude.... Maybe Magicnuts should also consider a different approach for the update after Gomira so it won't take this long each time.
Who needs an API and an automated OCR system when you can just do it manually for each month?does discord have an API so I can scrape all the progress images in the progress thread and do a little graph showing progress over time? cause it'd be depressing as hell
Seems pretty linear to me given the state of things. They also have an infant.Who needs an API and an automated OCR system when you can just do it manually for each month?
Slower than before and a bit more work.
Yep, pretty linear. Just much slower.Seems pretty linear to me given the state of things. They also have an infant.
Ouch, damn.
Context matters. He was replying to a comment from a guy who regularly complains about having to wait for years to get Princess Serena's update. But you won't see context if the ones scrapping that message don't want you to see it hisnik2Ouch, damn.
It's easy and yeah, it has been discussed before. You plan, you do, you test and replay what you did, you see things don't work and have to redo them, so you add another task to show things didn't go as planned and you'll need to work some more, creating different artwork, dialogues or whatever. At some point, all the planned content is finally done and then, when you replay what you have (your 'alpha' version), you add editing tasks to show you aren't happy with the results and you need to keep fixing, improving and redoing some things. As simple as that. You call it moving the goalposts, I'd say is being transparent with your supporters and telling them the update will take longer as soon as you know it will.I imagine y'all discussed this already, but it's kinda scary how the goal posts continue to move on these progress indicators:

Now I can understand when you're months away from the end goal that things can creep a bit, but if your total planning is complete, it's a little weird that every single report has continual creep on whatever aspect you're working on.
Plus, they've been polishing it for two months, what's up with that?
Still, that's not how you're supposed to respond to your patron. Better just let them be.Context matters.

What is it gonna take to make people FINALLY admit this is a scam and they just aren't working on it or if they are it's no more than an hour a week or so. People just gobble down one excuse after the next and even go out of their way to attack anyone that points out what a scam this is.
2+ years with nothing to show for it is a valid thing to complain about. I have a programing job and even on the bigger projects if I went more than 2 weeks without any obvious signs of work being done my boss would be breathing down my neck.Context matters.

Yeh that's life. Until there is a real update, then we got a few months peace, and then they come back complaining.What a disrespect to community.
How people even support that.
How they dare to tell to people to go play other games, don't they understand it's not the same, it's almost like telling someone to go swim in the iver because the beach is interdict, it's likely a total disrespect for beach simps, are they just nuts...What a disrespect to community.

This 100%. Too many people are so clueless about how game design works. Goals and tasks change all the time for many reasons, all with the goal of making the best possible product. Fixing one bug may case two others to appears, needing them to be added to the tally of tasks. Editing always go through multiple passes before settling on a result.It's easy and yeah, it has been discussed before.

I didn't say it was the polite or even the right way to answer. But this guy has never been a patron and is, indeed, a regular complainer.Still, that's not how you're supposed to respond to your patron. Better just let them be.
First things first, don't pronounce that banned name !!!What is it gonna take to make people FINALLY admit this is a scam and they just aren't working on it or if they are it's no more than an hour a week or so.

This is ICSTOR behavior.
