I was not talking about on discord. I am talking here. have there been issues? yes. has there been times he didn't tell the whole truth right away? possibly. but here it's "he's a liar don't support" should be said "I feel he is a liar and I don't think others should support" because the latter is the opinion of another person and not a direct attack. how ever one could say "he took X money went on a cruise and here is the evidence to back this up and he never said anything to anyone about it thus he is a liar" that is fine too because you say he is one thing and back it up with tangible things. I'm sorry you got blocked from the discord etc, I can't attest to it but I will accept your word that you say you were because I have not known you long enough to think you might lie about something like that. I am an open minded person but not when things aren't there to back up the statements.
There are a lot of disheartened people on here when it comes to BD, and I will be honest, I truely hate being negative about another dev. I try my best to be supportive of other developers because I do understand how stressfull it can be. When you only have a very few supporters then you begin to know each of them and they are not a colective, they are individuals. You dont worry about letting down a faceless multitude, you worry about letting down Kaz, or CXX, or Elhemeer, or Boobs Lover, or all the others that you know as individuals, and it's stressful being a Dev.
And I will give BD props. What he puts out is, for the most part, done well. Some will say there are too many duck faces, or we didn't get enough Basketball, or even that there are too many girls(that one I agree with). BUT the story is good. It has sexy parts (Harper
) It has sentimental parts(Rachel pregers
) and it has tension and drama(Ryker
and Dallia
) And as I have said before, the art is on point.
It's the missing deadlines and the bs that piss people off.
When I said that I "got tired of the lies" I specificaly meant him making comments where he says that he already has x# of images rendered for the update, but it will be delayed another week because he still has another x# of renders to do, and then when he finally releases, it is less that the original number of images that he claimed he already had done back when he delayed the release. He did this at least 3 times while I was a supporter.
Once you start noticing these discrepancies in what he says then it begins to cast doubt on all of the other excuses that he gives for the repeated and continual delays. If EVERY excuse he has given for missing a deadline is 100% true, then BD has to be the most statistically unlucky person in the world.
It would be better all around if he just gave honest updates. If he doesn't know yet when it will be ready, then say it's in progress and that he will keep us informed. then when it's all good make a post saying I'll post the update tomorow at X time and then do it.
After three or four of these type updates people would stop complaining. You dont have to give a date if you dont yet now the date. No one will kill you because you can't give an exact date yet. In fact they will be happier with your transparancy when you just say
"I don't know, but I am making progress. This is what I have gotten done. Here's a few sneak peaks."
All supporters really want to know is that the work is progressing.
I will keep playing the game on here, and I wish BD all the best. But when I did support him, I felt let down.
I'm sure someday some supporter will feel the same about me, but I hope that they will tell me, and when they do tell me, I hope I will atleast care enough to acknowledge them.
So I'm sorry,
Freki if I came across as if I was attacking you. I was, and I shouldn't have. I was not upset with you, I was upset with BD supporters saying that those of us who feel let down and betrayed by BD shouldn't feel the way we do.
You have every right to feel happy with what BD is putting out. Just please remember that those of us who are disheartened also have every right to feel the way we do as well.
