I'd take what they claim with a grain of salt (sidewalk grade), since they also claimed to have been charged for the last 7 months when I know for a fact that's not true. Highly doubt faux Yoda was ever a patron.Day in the life of
He remove you from his patrons for what you wrote???This is crazy
I have no problems with side stories, when they tell us important information that would be weird for the main game to stop and tell us. For example Lilith's Longing as a side story to Single Again took us into the mind of Lilith as we explore her past and see her attitude towards the MC change in Single Again. It wouldn't have worked as part of the main game, but making her the MC in her own story gave us an insight into who she is and why she acts the way she does. That was the right way to tell a side story.
DITLO Harper didn't really add anything to the story. We already know that Harper is stressing, we already know Katie is working against Charles and Ryker, we already know Natalie was stressing about spending time with Ethan, we already know Harper went looking for Natalie. Aside from seeing Harper nude (and not even fully naked thanks to unnecessary censoring) what exactly was added that we didn't know before now? Her internal monologue about seeing what goes on in the house? Well, she finds out about that in the main game anyway.

Ok...first I want to say to BrainDrop: prayers. Hoping you can find your way through whatever it is that is breaking your spirit right now (and yes...as a fan of WVM I am.hoping that it happens soon, but I know it will take whatever time it takes.) I truly have enjoyed WVM so far (haven't played DITLO mini yet) and I hope you will be able to continue it again soon...but take care of you first (if you suffer, your work will suffer, and nobody wants that).
Having said all of that, I'm on the fence about this whole DITLO side story idea. Yes, I would love to peer into the lives of many of the characters and learn more of their backstories...but in also kinda feel like this minigame setup Seperated those backstories from the main game. Kinda like breaking important pieces away from the core. I still need to play this Harper mini before I make a final determination on that subject...but in general the concept feels like it may be castrating the main story a bit...or may end up being overly redundant for no reason than to try to keep the thread active. Will see how things go. Also, at this point in tge main game, censoring these side games (if that's actually happening...haven't played yet so don't know for sure) seems excessively unnecessary. I know...we haven't seen Harper nude in the full game yet...but if you're puting the main on hold for now and just doing these minis (and considering the main game never was censored to my recollection anyway), then censoring them is a GIANT slap in the face of the players...and if you don't want to show certain characters nude untill they are nude in the main game, then don't make sure games for them (if at all)...just save it for when you can get back to the main again.
Anyway...best wishes BD, and good luck.

Someone needs to help Braindrop to get in the right track...
I understand griefing, i lost all of my grandparents too, and there are people that loses SONS and DAUGHTERs, but at some point you have to move on...
He neeeds professional help
Well I liked it... I don't know how long its been for the update, if longer than 2-3 months.. and if I were a subscriber would I be a bit cheesed off.... yes probably.
As I am not, I quite like the idea of the side game (purely Kinetic novel) but its a nice side thing. I would have liked to have seen more of the actual game... but I don't mind this side novel at all.
When are we going to get it on with Harper???.... been wanting that for ages now. She needs some serious loving, even more so after this mini-game.

Don't know, I'm always reading "DILDO Harper"...
Well, in the main game there was the whole scandal obstacle with a former teacher getting involved with a student. That stopped anything happening with staff at WVM getting down and dirty. Only relatively recently in the story has that obstacle been removed, starting with the scenes with Mabel. For Harper, I assume it would happen after the first game he wins for her.
Oh, and since pledges were paused for most of that, subscribers aren't out of pocket. Pledges were enabled for this month and something came out this month.

One thing is for sure ... There are too many Rabbit Holes in our Planet, every second step a Dev is falling into them.
Someone needs to help him out there.

Darn, happy to see this pop up! Thanks for the update!
It's been almost a YEAR since a real update.

I like the idea of third party perspectives for story exposition, but I question why it should be divorced from the main game. Why not integrate it into the game? For example, at the beginning and/or ending of each 'Day' provide a different character's perspective before MC takes off on his harem globetrotter adventure. I feel this would add gravitas to the narrative with the added benefit of waste-not want-not.

it´s sad that after waiting for that long there is no update for the maingame but insted a sideshow...and i know it´s meaningless to say anything against the dev but even if you want nomore cant you bring it to an orderly ending!? yeah whatever...i look in a coupple of months again ,if there is anything real new or not....(sideshows are boring and censored at that moreso)

which is what makes him a good dev. but the statement i responded to was more about a dev not using patreon at all.
Oh I know, I read the dialogue...... but doesn't mean I don't want to see it. Haha
Well that's fair enough then, if he paused it for a break and no subscribers are out of pocket, then people can't be too miffed with braindrop's decision or the time it has been since the last update. Like i said I liked it...would have been better if certain scenes were not blurred out, but as a side game was fine... as long as it doesn't go down the route of the whatif's like another game (I very much doubt however as this isn't the kind of game for it) then I'm all for these side games.
