I was working with a Dev on a game.... He had to abandoned it couse of family problems, he did mostly graphics, i did the dialogs and translation and we both tried to produce a story... ITS A FULL TIME JOBB
Respect the people producing the games, couse you get them for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You shouldnt be even asking stupid questions like this....
PLAY THE GAME OR GET THE F...... OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!
Actually, no, a lot of devs are worthy of criticism, because they produce crappy products. It has nothing to do with whether the games are being played for free. With the limited resources and time they have to develop, many devs make horrible decisions in what to focus on.
For example, many devs of these adult games, despite putting in something close to a full-time work schedule, still produce updates with lackluster content. Many don't seem to understand a simple rule: while producing a sex game, they should actually add quality sex scenes to said sex game. All the highly successful games have high-quality sex scenes in each update, and the longer the time between updates, generally the more sex scenes to account for that time.
#fuckarounditis is a real thing with some of these developers. And they probably sit around wondering why they don't gain patrons. Maybe it's because they're trying to compete in a highly competitive industry but aren't providing the main ingredient . . .
I've seen some of your other comments around here, where you imply the unfolding story seems to make up for the lack of sexual content. But whatever. A talented developer would be able to tell a good story while adding sexual content for each update. Period. If, as a dev of an adult game, you're telling a story that, because of its inherent plot and character setups, forces the sexual content to arise years down the line of the development stage, you need to rethink your story.
As this game is, I see several hot models--great design, in my opinion--but with nothing but the promise of grind fest with no payoff. This game isn't worth playing for free, so it's surely not worth paying for. And since it's not worth playing, the devs are much more unlikely to gain new patrons, and thus more resources to fuel better development. This game will stagnate and die at the rate it's going.
