You know what is funny, they actually didn't need any extra excuses.

Before they started working on this update they asked their supporters if they preferred "small" or "big" updates and they picked the last option. Now the problem, there is no "big" update for comparison so if someone asked they only needed to say "But that's what a *BIGGER* update is, it requires much more time than the *smaller* ones you know."

So in my opinion they just wasted good excuses that they could very well used in other circumstances, but that's their problem now.
In the off chance that they do start giving a new excuse, how do you guys think the people would react? My guess is that there will be some expected outrage here, but the people who are still supporters are essentially cultists and they wouldn't care. So nothing would change.
The only reason people are complaining is because it's actually a really good game.

I wasn't looking forward to an episode all about Rose, and after 10 months of development they released a really good episode. I really got into it.

This episode, if they've stuck to their style, will probably be equally as entertaining, even if it is about an orc. The long development time aside, if the game is fun, the game is fun.

But it's also fun to pile on to the "excessive development time hate" in this thread. :sneaky:

At this point I think you guys like making these reports so much some of you will be disappointed when/if the update comes out.
I do enjoy making charts, but I enjoy the game more, so I won't be disappointed. Also, when/if the update comes out we'll start over with the next update, delays, complains, progress reports, charts, etc. It's a win-win! ;)

It's been 2 years since I've visited this thread is the game finished/almost completed. Or is the game still being developed on?
The game is not finished by a far stretch, and it's also not abandoned in the sense the devs keep communicating. The devs have been working on the next update for a little over two years, as they decided to go for a bigger update. There is no estimated release date, but there are progress reports, and the devs say they are close to finishing the update.

That's for the facts. Now for my personal opinion: if you're interested in the game, I'd advise you to come back and check here again at the beginning of next year.

At least the number of remaining bugs isn't going up.

This feels like when a parent tells you to do something within the count of three. When you don't do it even at two, they start going "two and a half, two and three quarters". That's how it feels seeing these numbers supposedly going down according to the devs
Can't say I disagree.

ahhh ok my bad then, still seems like a weird policy to me with so much transparency
I agree this shouldn't have the abandoned tag but, with the rules as written, it's indeed deserved.

I'm guessing it's meant to signal projects that might be scams, where devs keep posting news but never deliver an actual product, to keep milking patrons.

I personally don't think this is the case here. But other people think otherwise, and I can't say in good faith that they don't have reasons to think so.

I think our system should introduce a new tag: "milking"
You know, I understand what you're getting it, but that's actually its own thing too. They even make specialized tables for it. It'd be like using the furry tag because someone in the game has a mink coat. You'll get a bunch of disgruntled weirdos showing up. :ROFLMAO:

How about 'Bereft'? Because even though the devs are there, the game is bereft of updates.

EDIT: On second thought, maybe stale.
