I support whatever the dev feels is best to make this a sustainable endeavor not only for WTHI but also future games. He deserves fair compensation for his work, and if Steam is the best platform then 100% go for it!

Except if I cannot get Jenna and Katie in an absolutely filthy incestuous threesome. Then, it's full-on torches and pitchforks.

what makes people pessimistic is that most remakes will result in the game going into milking and slowly being abandoned after a year or two of no more patrons

Thankfully, the people that might actually be affected by milking will already know that this dev pauses patreon when there's no progress being made on the game.

I am rather an optimistic person than pessimistic...which of course isnt always a good thing hehe
Like all of you i want to play ep 24 and 25 asap but since most of us dont support the dev moneywise, we shouldnt complain too much...we had an amazing ride with this game so far.
Few of you mentioned that 2 months arent enough for a rework and i agree...i guess it could eat up up to six months imo since there is no guarantee that everything will be silkysmooth.
Still, its worth the wait and i have faith in CG.
That said, we can play some other amazing games while we have an eye on any news regarding WTHI.

It's only 2 month postponement.

I don't think we will have: Reworked episodes 1-10, steam release and episode 24 by mid may. That's next to impossible.
Mid-August for ep.24 seems more realistic.

On the other hand: I got the game here for free, and while I am sad I have to wait ~6 more months for the next chapter, it REALLY makes financial sense from what the developer is saying. Yes, steam will bring much higher revenue than patreon alone.

The irony of people on a pirate site blaming a developer for making decisions because he needs to improve his income stream is mind-blowing.

That.

Work on episode 24 is postponed by 2 months, not release. Yes, august seems realistic.

Cause blood rarely visits his upper brain.

Oh, come on on hold for remake FFS.

Oh, come on on hold for remake FFS.

What is FFS?

 

[SweatyDevil]

Why is the game on hold all of a sudden? Is it because of the remake or something else?

Probably because of the remake but it's misleading, it's even an error imo. Other games being reworked don't get that tag...

Not competely sure, but imo an onhold tag can actually only be requested from a developer to be added to the OP. So maybe cheeky has done that here.

For Fucks Sake.

Devs can request the tag, but mods can tag it without devs' approval. From the last patreon news, it's not on hold, it's still actively worked on.

Where on f95 has this been stated. Because the rules still only refer to On Hold as being at the devs request.

And it makes sense for Cheeky to request it at this point.

Do you think the rules are 100% respected by every mod? They are all powerful on this site. Also "mistakes" can happen.

Perhaps, we don't know. I don't think it makes sense, but it's just my opinion.

They "paused" the development of new chapters but are still developing the rework of the first 10 chapters.
