Just think if it takes him this long to do a basketball game in which the MC is not involved in the game. How long is it going to take him to do an update when the MC is actually involved in playing the game. When that time comes, I expect yet more excuses to delays.View attachment 2413301
Basketball., wait i totally forgot this game is about basketball
at this point you can just post a slide saying "after the match" and most of your patreons will just increase thier pledge. why keep dragging this on. also., wouldnt it be easy to do basketball renders than whatever he is claiming to do with those 4 to 5 images
Not dissapointing anyone?? brah, you cant please everyone. how ppl precive the update isnt in your hand so no point in being "anxious" over it.
had to walk on eggshells to even give good suggestions. else you might get muted and berated without a chance to rebuttal or straight up banned

He fucking made tons of money with actual playtime porn game then top tier pornstar actual shooting porn at same length.
Let that sink in.
Let that sink in.
This is a literal clownfiesta now.
Thanks for the peeps who keep us posted wth how things are on patreon/discord!
On the topic... so, technically, the update should drop in like a week, as per the latest excuses, no? As MK should get it in 1-2 days now, but waits for BD to finish the adjustments before posting it. (Let's not get into the alter-ego thing, as that's a whole other fun ride.)
Any ideas why this will not drop?
I think we could actually start a betting pool for the next excuse.

No need imo, this game will get the abandoned tag when it is officially abandoned via F95's rules. BD is torpedoing this game himself, no need for mods here to add extra fuel to this fire.

Problem is he gained 30 patreons the last 2 days.
His scam is working so more lazy people is gonna try and copy him.
Before he hid the amount he made that was with a little less patreons he made 24k a month he is making bank. And now he does not want to work he found out he can stall people for years.View attachment 2413346
"we havent earned anything" well excuse me, the last update you released was in october, now its 4 months after than. even if we consider the bare minimum he makes is 13000$ a month then it would be 52000$ in 4 months (bare minimum according to his projection and previous graphs) that's more than what most ppl make in a year. you cannot sit here and say you didn't earn anything. and what are you spending on?? assets? electricity?? that which ever dev has to spend while making fraction of the amount??
The human making this game is perfectly capable of hiring more humans. the ppl who are giving money are also humans, we are not robots printing money from thin air.
"He isnt asking for forgiveness" Asking for forgiveness is precisely what he should be doing. and how much longer ppl have to wait??
as for the pledges, its not about pausing or resuming. its about the lack of accountability thats the issue here. you cant always hide behind "mental health" or "IRL stuff" like family and send your huggers and bouncers to do the damage control, whiteknight or ban ppl for questioning you.
P.S: sorry for going on a rant here. this is the first time im like this on the forum, but this is just hard for me to see this game/ thread being mistreated and dragged around in the mud by BD and his ilk. This is the thread and community that made me become active on site and rise to the position im now and it sometimes physically hurts see all this BULLSHIT
P.P.S: so the update release is in Mac's hand but BD is still fixing the render?? so Mac can potentially release the update without the fixes but she wont and let BD update the fixes??? so whats the point of Mac having the update "in her hand"?? explain that logic... as i said before "the illusion of control"
funny part is he stoped posting updates when the mc got attacked and was hurt. people called him out on it then he released an update with the mc having headaces/ptsd from the attack. now all we get are sob storys as if he sees himself as the mc

It's a metaphor. "Mackenzie" is saying that "she" knows they haven't earned anyone's goodwill and are wearing out everyone's patience by constantly breaking promises and lying.
What's really happening here is that Braindrop doesn't want to work so he makes up fake mental issues and ridiculous excuses. Now they're going to switch to "weekly" updates that are only actually weekly if you're at the highest contribution level. What Braindrop has done here is constantly delay this giant update (just like he did last year) and will now split it up and parse it out into smaller amounts so he can just release all his stored-up renders throughout the year without having to actually make new content. So now the only way to play the "weekly" updates is to give him more money. It also prevents people from cancelling their subscription as the only way to get the small amount of content each month is if you're paying him.

Well, the biggest problem is still Patreon or the other sites because they give no shit is someone is a Faker or not. Actually this sort of behavior should get Banned from this Support platforms. Atleast to help the "Too easy Trust People* because from alone many will never check that or even forgot bout that they pledged.
Sadly to patreon BD is just a big cashcow that making them a lot of money...
would you get rid o him if he made you money ?
and the supporters keep giving him the money saying "we will support you no matter what....."

I know this is probably a lot to ask but can someone give me a TLDR version of how we went from a dev that seemed to be very trusted and liked here to him being basically viewed as another ICSTOR? I follow a shitton of game threads so it's hard to keep up with all this stuff.

this should help: https://f95zone.to/threads/wvm-s2-ch-1-ep-3-braindrop.35910/post-9943160
now add the 3 more excuses/delay posts to the ones mentioned there. Also see how the 2000+ render update mentioned in that post vanished into thin air.
P.S: these are the posts by uncle loco only, there are a ton more which were posted from his patreon to here (now they have been deleted on patreon to fool new ppl) not to mention all the pity posts before the once mentioned there.

Oh man, have myself already forgotten how Long this fucking List already was.
They will do it when there is proper reason to do it. Brainded is free to post allegedly scam posts and technically swindle his supporters until it is proven verifiably. Current milk train is eerily similar to 2021 when he kept delaying after the beta update. Currently we are in the phase before some people close to him might die and he falls into another massive depression cycle which will push further development to at least june or july. Estimated first chunk update of 2023 is August at the earliest. Adjust your pledges accordingly and keep the milk train running.

I am not as active on this thread as I used to be so I missed a lot of stuff. I can't really blame people for being distrustful. Devs are just normal people and shit can happen but that is next level. He is either making stuff up or he has been cursed by 100 gipsies.

As a previous poster pointed out, there is nothing stopping BD from subbing to his own Patreon with the money he has already made. But assuming that didn't happen, you also have to remember there are always going to be new people who see this game for the first time and think "Wow, this looks good!" But that inflow should get smaller if he continues this behavior while the outflow keeps growing. And you have to consider the turnover rate as well. I subbed to him in the middle of this drama not knowing how bad it was, and hung in WAY longer than I should have because I didn't get exposed to this history of neglect. If I just saw this game now as a new sub, I wouldn't make 1/100th of the time I did, I would have been a one month and done. And good luck recapturing the outflow audience, at this point they hate him more than they liked the game at its prime.

If patrons start doing chargebacks in large enough numbers, Patreon will care, trust me. Every chargeback is a tremendous amount of work for the company to undo. Even one is annoying. Thousands and they would probably punish him simply to lower the amount of work he'd be making them do.
