His wife couldn't post an update for him either? Sounds like more excuses to me... Every update seems to have many of them. What ever happened to those 2000+ renders?
I'm not a developer but I have a high-stress job and for me, it comes down to compartmentalization you have to understand and expect that things will go wrong and there will be things you can't control so the only things you need to focus on are limiting the risk of things going wrong and controlling the things you can control it's literally that simple now there are exceptions to this rule but the expectations do not disprove the rule.I can't speak to a lot of what they've ever said, but I would imagine there would be a lot of stress and pressure to keep up a very popular project. Deadlines and quality etc. Then of course there's the spiraling and increasing stress of failing to meet those demands.
Add to all that any other internal or external factors and pressures and things can get very bad very quickly.
It's a miracle more independent solo devs don't crash and burn.
I sure as hell wouldn't be able to handle it all.
Sure maybe in the UK lol, and even their studies have shown more than a quarter gets them taken out after the fact anyways.Taking out an appendix is rare these days. They usually just give antibiotics.
It's also that as he's gone through these cycles, every time it gets bigger, more desperate. If you go back a couple years in this thread, it starts out with Internet issues. Then each time it gets more involved. If he'd simply said "I'm taking the holidays off to be with family, back soon" nobody would've have had an issue (well almost nobody ).bruh he really really really can't keep crying wolf his appendix needs to come out Just like that? Feeling sick then 2 days later blam bloated appendix? Bruh I just can't given recent events believe that. I understand life is spontaneous but his life seems like it's the spontaneity highway.......I'm aware that this could happen to anyone at any time but this happened to BD on his "I need an extra week" tour coincidence? So extra long wait for this one fellas gotta wait for him to heal more delays probably etc.
I am pretty sure in most of the places you named, extraction is the way to goI'm talking about in the US and probably Europe, Australia, etc. Not the 3rd world.
BD has previously said that the game is an embarrassment for him regarding his family. I wouldn't expect anyone other than BD to give updates (for other reasons as well).His wife couldn't post an update for him either? Sounds like more excuses to me...

Per BDs discord:
Braindrop Today at 6:20 PM
I've been in the hospital
Not gonna go deep, still feel like shit but here's the short.
Was sick before the last post, was told it was the flu. Few days later I wake up in the middle of the night feeling like my stomach is gonna explode, rush to hospital, few hours later I no longer own an appendix.
Go home 2 days later, wake up in middle of night feeling the same pain. Now been in the hospital for over a week being monitored. Also turns out I did have the flu and got pneumonia, coughing a lot and it fucking hurts.
I'm finally starting to feel better but my ass got kicked.
Didn't mean to go dark and intended to update as soon as I felt better but things got fucked and I didn't want to say anything until things got better.
There's always people that assume I'm evil and lying and gotta say the last thing I wanted to do was read that shit while laying here feeling like this.
Told Mackenzie to go ahead and take the rest of the year off since she had plans to go back to her family for Christmas.
Not sure how much longer I'll be here, my vitals still aren't where they need to be but it hopefully won't be much longer.
Really bad timing all things considered but it is what it is, just focused on getting healthy and the update will be out very soon after.
Sorry again for not saying anything, I would make a post on patreon/SS but I only have access to those from my PC. I messaged Mackenzie asking her to post something just now but I'm not sure when she'll see it.
I would like to believe him too but I half expect the next delay to be a post about him being in a comma for 6 month and how sorry he is and how he will get an update out as soon and he is feeling better. Probably shouldn't joke but it kind of how it seems to be going. If it wasn't for bad luck BD wouldn't have any luck it seems.at this point, he has zero credibility for me. I am not saying he's laying. I am saying I cannot say if he is at this point.
we'll see because he's rapidly running out of organs to say flatlined and here's hoping the family dogs are in good health because lord knows if lassie goes home we won't see a release till 2033.It's also that as he's gone through these cycles, every time it gets bigger, more desperate.

But not just appendicitis, but flu and pneumonia...as if one isn't enough?
He is making stuff up to delay the nothing he has done for months. It surprises me that after all this time from the last update which was in June or July with the 400 renders that he promised to break the 2000 render update that he promised to release by in April or January. But the plan was to release chunks of that update. It's December.I would like to believe him too but I half expect the next delay to be a post about him being in a comma for 6 month and how sorry he is and how he will get an update out as soon and he is feeling better. Probably shouldn't joke but it kind of how it seems to be going. If it wasn't for bad luck BD wouldn't have any luck it seems.
It should be just extract and play as your saves should be there unless you deleted them from their location.I see my folder is named "WVM-0.6.7.1-pc"... while the newest downloadable version is 0.10 which hopefully means I have some new content to play through. Can I just transfer my saves and start from where I left off in the previous version or do I have to play through the game once more?
MetooI wish more did that. I would support far more of them. Now when someone I support doesn't update that month, I drop support and never go back to them. To me, it's generally a sign of the developers dwindling interest in creating the game.
Yeah, and you are ready to go next dayThere has been a study about it indeed, but that's just a study. For appendicitis the golden standard remains a surgical removal.
Completely disagree and I live in Western Europe, but that's fair if you want to believe that.The treatment via antibiotics is becoming more and more common as the appendix has shown to play a role in the immune system, and surgery has risks. Appendectomy started in the 19th century. As long as it hasn't burst or gotten close, better to keep it. At least in the developed world.
They could be talking about an actual 'open appendectomy'. Those are pretty rare now in Western medicine. Usually only necessary if the infection has spread far beyond the appendix or it has already ruptured. Surgery is still the primary treatment, but its a laparoscopic surgery only needing a tiny hole in your navel. Antibiotics do work though, if you manage to catch it very early on. However, few go to the hospital until it progresses to be pretty bad.Completely disagree and I live in Western Europe, but that's fair if you want to believe that.
Yeah,right.Taking out an appendix is rare these days. They usually just give antibiotics.
