When I was young and had to do homework I really didn't want to do, i'd do pretty much ANYTHING else.
I'd sit there and draw, sit and spin around in an office chair, walk around my room and mess with random things. just ANYTHING over doing my homework.
This is what is happening in a long ass while around here.
It started with reworking the first week, which is honestly reasonable as long as it doesn't take more time and effort than creating a new VN.
Then we got DITLO, which not a single person asked for or wanted, but we got it, which could have been fine if it wasn't delivered instead of a 2K renders update that was supposed to be out 10 months earlier.
Now it's interior decoration time! WOHOOO!! again, something that might have been reasonable if everything else went great, or even just ok.
BD does not want to do his homework and it should be pretty clear at this point, he'll do ANYTHING over actually progressing with the story. it might be because he have no desire to develop WVM anymore, or maybe because he can't find a way to move out of the corner he wrote himself into story-wise, personally I think it's both.
I don't think he has bad intentions at all, but it's obvious he can't and or does not want to work on WVM anymore, but can't bring himself to let it go. after all the backlash he was pretty much forced to try and deal with things and still, here we are.
If you don't see it, I'm not sure what to tell you.
If you keep supporting this, well, that's your money, good for you.

Well, the basketball is going to need to be reskinned at least once obviouslyYou'll soon have your wish. This game is all about balls - and with the assets growing between updates, soon the MC will definitely need a basket.
And it's supposed to be finished in ~10 years.

I hope nobody is pathetic enough to make up a wife and child, but I wouldn't put it past him. If anyone would do it, it would be him.

That's the really sad thing, that someone who did weekly updates and was the poster boy of how to be consistent is now someone we think being able to do this ...

Sadly seems to be like that. It's even irrelevant if he at some point decided to scam people or if he is the unluckiest person on earth or if he has psychological problems that big, that he belies people and himself on this scale ... The result is the same.
Wait a minute hold up....
Is it just my mind playing tricks with me but wasn't this update suppose to be focused on the game ?
And weren't they suppose to fly off to some charity thing directly after the game ?
I'm more confused about this update now than before oh man I'm glad I dropped this mess so long ago....

And my first meeting with that aggro bitched called "Armani" the mc now her, but whos is that dumb aggro bitch, I never see her before? Or is that these missing days that only show up in 2023?

I don't understand the difference in releasing the game and then doing the housing fix the next update. Rather than delaying the game to do those fixes. What's the point in changing the housing for an update that is ready to go? When making the next update they should now be rendering new scenes and changing the house. I don't see what's so difficult in doing that. Instead they add on extra work to do for no apparent reason. I enjoy the game and wish only the best in the future. Just kind of bummed out waiting for so long. Given dates that aren't achieved, gives me a false sense in confidence that next time they release a date, that it's going to actually be met rather than delayed again.
Oh thats easy, because its not ready to go. BD has got distracted again and is working on the rework instead of the update which he has been scamming his patreons for the last 2 years.
Im honestly really happy that the last Ive been a patron to Braindead was in May 2021.
Havent actually had to pay for any of his milkings.

I checked in on the game today and was as amused as I thought I would be. I saw a helpful post by a member named Uncle Loco. He had all of the posts by BD/Mackenzie from March 22nd of 2021 until yesterday. I checked the first one, and then another, and another. By the time I was on the 6th BD post I was laughing out loud. I decided that I would kind of curate a rough list of dates, excuses, release promises, and release sizes for anyone who wishes to read a condensed version of the past almost 2 years of this game's development. This is not 100% accurate. There may have been things I missed but this isn't an historical document. So sit back, grab some popcorn, and marvel at the endless drama that is TWO YEARS IN THE LIFE OF BRAINDROP (or TYITLOB as good ole BD would call it.

I'm glad I don't play this game anymore. There's no point wasting time on it when Dev himself doesn't want to provide us with updates. As for his ''problems'' everyone has them. That's life, welcome. I wish him well.

I'm not gonna lie, the last couple of updates were disappointing, and now the game hasn't had an update for so long, it just keeps getting "delayed" and then bs excuses are made up and we just left sitting here wondering if there even will be a new update or if the dev is just gonna take the cash and bail.
This new update, assuming it actually comes out better be before March, if it's not out soon people are going to start to grow tired of waiting and seeing the excuses being made. It also better be one hell of an update for taking this long, if it's another short update with absolutely nothing happening... I will officially lose the last bit of respect I have for the dev.

Love how new Devs go all in when they start developing a game, claiming they need support since they'll be doing it full time. But once they get some ground and money starts flowing in, their grind slows down and they frame it as "just a hobby" . If not your patreons atleast show some respect to your passions, why lie to yourself just to save your goofy aah.
