Some of the humor is amusing don't get me wrong, but goddamn does the man have to do the dumbest thing at all times?not until he takes Gretta. I'm not even sure I'm pronouncing her name right, it's been so long
It's not going to. It'll probably have the usual 30-40 minutes of content if you read everything, 10ish minutes if you're a skip straight to the porn player. There's a laundry list of excuses for why it took so long, so expect the same level of quality as we already got and if it's somehow better then be pleased with it.Imagine making over $6,600 a month on 'developing' a game that you haven't updated in 2 years.
Previous updates took roughly 2-5 months each and still provided a few hours of content.
I guess the couple of devs realized that they don't actually need to do anything or rather take their sweet fucking time doing it to get paid... This game had a huge potential to become one of the best porn games but the devs decided to be cheap about it and didn't hire anybody while leeching money off of their patreons monthly.
This update better contain a week worth of playtime in content.

iirc the game offers no mechanics. it's fancier than the common VNs but still no gameplayThis update better contain a week worth of playtime in content.
I lack your optimism that we will ever even get there. Three more updates is 6 more years at this rate. I'm not even sure there will still be a planet Earth in 6 years, let alone porn games.Did we have any date to 1.0 release or still nothing?
Never having had any faith in the release date is really helping me here, because I feel no sense of disappointment over it slipping.Oh no. 23 tasks left (probably more coming), 23 days left in november. And if they need a week to do the final release preparations as usual, then they won't make the deadline.
That is his character and we love him for it goddammit. It reminds me of the old Leisure Suit Larry games, part of the fun is helping some total loser get laid.For my sanity, does the MC just remain a happy go lucky idiot?

Mechanics? I think you mean pointless grinding to pad out gameplay. No thanks! I'll take pure content instead. This is one area of design philosophy the Nuts got *exactly* right.iirc the game offers no mechanics. it's fancier than the common VNs but still no gameplay
I'm a masochist on that regard. I grew up playing those janky meet n fuck games. Even mediocre sex scenes feel great if you are frustrated navigating through poorly made minigames, and the scene finally comes as a release. Of course, it is better if the minigames are well made, but bad ones work tooMechanics? I think you mean pointless grinding to pad out gameplay. No thanks! I'll take pure content instead.
There's something satisfying about having to work for the scene. Otherwise, I could just go on PornhubI'm a masochist on that regard. I grew up playing those janky meet n fuck games.

RPG Maker porn games be like: hey anon, if you bring me 600 tufts of grass I'll show you my boobs! uwuMechanics? I think you mean pointless grinding to pad out gameplay.
Those "600 tufts of grass" would be useful in this situation tho.RPG Maker porn games be like: hey anon, if you bring me 600 tufts of grass I'll show you my boobs! uwu
Yeah the devs for WAL have their flaws but not including shit like that is a design choice I'll be forever thankful for.
I'm also really grateful they left the grinding out of this game.RPG Maker porn games be like: hey anon, if you bring me 600 tufts of grass I'll show you my boobs! uwu

Touching grass is what many people have been doing for the past 2 years without an update (when doing something else like playing other games is not an option at least).
I mean everything that makes a porn VN game something more than just a flood of text between lewd scenes. By 'mechanics' I mean exactly this. A fishing mini-game, a doll-dressing mini-game, an exploration or a fighting mode, multiple plot lines - these are mechanics. You playing a game by using mechanics, otherwise it's just a VN. So iirc WaL is a straight-forward VN with no gameplay. It would be nice to have something to do in a game but it takes an actual game design.Mechanics?

Yeah, the old Sierra games protagonists is what he reminds me of, specifically Larry Laffer. In comparison though our character steps up to the call and does manage to figure out clever if unconventional solutions to problems for more or less altruistic reasons. Even if he is also a horndog who wants a harem for whatever reason.That is his character and we love him for it goddammit.

Just be thankful he's not a loser with a hideous bowl 'do, like in Summertime Saga
That would be a bit of underselling the game. There's some point-and-click aspect, acquiring items, navigating the map, figuring out which NPC to approach to make the plot progress, checking on them at various times of the day, finding that sheep for the picture book.I mean everything that makes a porn VN game something more than just a flood of text between lewd scenes.

You can't blame the guy, he was raised in a brothel! And lets be fair, who wouldn't want a harem?Yeah, the old Sierra games protagonists is what he reminds me of, specifically Larry Laffer.
