So he won't play the game ever because he will think all updates are betas
- Thread starter 7767
- Start date
There is absolutely no need for a walkthrough for this VN. The only decisions are to bang or not to bang!

That is not true there are certain characters that are only triggered based on you selecting certain events. If you don't have sex with one character a bunch of characters are not available in the way the game stands today.

Nope. We are now living in groundhog day. Braindrop releases a 300 render update, says another will follow in a few days, excuse, then you wake up 2 months later and he does the same thing.

It's ridiculous.
Sure, there can always happen things to completely fuck up your road map, but if you tell people you will have something ready for release until day X, your own deadline is not X, it is way before that, so you have time to test/check things and have a little buffer in case something takes longer.
And that doesn't even include that having something, not AT day X, but before/until day X, should mean to have it ready for release and maybe even actually release it before that. Kind of like, if you tell people you will release something in the next 10 days, you should be done with it like now, so you have UP TO 10 days for polishing and testing, not for tinkering around and doing actual work on it.
That's all easier said than done, and I am not able to do so all the time myself, but then I don't supposedly have a personal assistant and am not in a position where I have to regain trust like BD is.

Well you know like most have said on here the promises come then right before the patron refresh an excuse appears. I totally agree with you with the testing timelines there are other games which are in testing now which are far more complex and gone beyond the 2k render count that BD promised which have taken about the same time. One particular game has been given to the testers allowing the dev to tinker while the testers find bugs which hopefully take around 2 weeks. Considering it's only 300 renders I wouldn't even give it 10 days BD will need some real trust building here now

This. When you give deadlines, you always give you some margin for things that can go wrong, because a lot of times things DO go wrong.
But the problem here is that the dealines is just crumbs to be thrown to the patreon pidgeons, they arent really deadlines.

True, but it still comes down to bang or not to bang. If you don't want to miss something never pass on having sex.

Pretty sure there was another post after this that said the 9/30 delay would be pushed out a couple of days due to the issues they ran into on this last one.

Hello everyone.
We are sorry to announce that the update will be moved back to October 7th.
We announced on discord yesterday that Braindrop and his household are currently sick and all have fevers. They went to their doctor and everything will be okay but Braindrop has told me that he and his family were feeling worse today and that he wasn't able to get much work done due to caring for his family while trying to rest himself. They started feeling ill on Wednesday and they believe that they'll start feeling better soon.
There isn't much left to finish for the update but due to the circumstances I really do not want to push Braindrop to finish everything right now. He was very adamant about pushing through as soon as he possibly could and I convinced him to rest and we'll simply reload ourselves and be ready to continue when everyone is healthy.
He said that he doesn't want to just say "It'll be out soon" since he doesn't want people to check and get disappointed every day that it isn't out.
The latest date I could get him to agree to was the 7th.
We are very bummed about having to delay. This obviously isn't how we envisioned things going up to this point but we can not control when and if we get sick.
We're striving to achieve something maintainable and working through a bad illness, especially with a baby, is not a step in that direction.
We have already talked and planned how we'll try and avoid these interruptions going forward. I'd like to reiterate that we didn't flip a magical switch and suddenly turn perfect. There are many bad development habits that we are working on fixing, such as the constant edits up until the release day. But, we're working ourselves through a weird batch of content at the moment due to this past year and we believe things won't be as touchy when we're past a certain point.
I do hope you are understanding of the situation. We're not happy with the situation but we are overall feeling positive about the progress being made behind the scenes.
We plan to release at 5pm EST on Friday, October 7th.
I'll have news about when to expect Episode 4 as well as an update on the Season 1 redo in the next Mind Drop on October 12th.
Thanks guys. We'll see you on the 7th.
Take care.

when they already use season 2, chapter 1 etc, god whats next, oh i forgot theres the chunks too
Boy, what a short lived we are gonna be better.
I don't know anyone as unlucky as BD it seems, nothing in the last 2 years seems to have gone his way or at least game dev side of things.
But what he has done seems to be working with his supporters as he is keeping par instead of bleeding them as of late, gonna be fun to see if he drags until he starts loosing again or actually puts up some stuff (delayed of course)

Man, if there is a non-beta and non-DITLO release before 2025 I'll be surprised. Betas and DITLOs are about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. At least release a non-beta of one before doing a beta of the next.
