I don't even believe this game is ever be completed. Feels like dev losing his "gass" for this project, he already did with that zeus theme nonsense.
Not planning to play, but reading what other say it seems it also losing its charm that first couple of releases had.
And dev saying that 5000 or so $$$ patreon income is not enough to make him think of this preject seriously doesn't add much confidence either.
He'll probably will reach a new "zeus party" critical point and gass out again.
This reeks of another ecchi sensei situation.
The irony being that the slow pace of updates causes people to NOT give money. Like I don't want to subscribe for 4 years straight for a single project. But I'd happily subscribe for bigger updates knowing this project will be complete on a reasonable timeline and then stick around if I like the next project. I'm subscribed to plenty of other Developers who just put out consistent full chapter+ updates every few weeks. I can't justify subscribing for a pittance of content. Maybe I'm missing something. Spending $5 a month for 5 minutes of content is horrendous value. I can get a movie ticket for $11.50 for 2 hours+ of content. I can spend $30 on a steam game for 50 hours of content. I don't mind getting a little less value to support a small developer but I need a little more than 5 minutes of content.

It is 30-50 at best. What you count is repeated images for parralax, busts etc.


I already doing fine. I'm not so desperate to involve myself writing and creating shitty AI games with shitty porn stories for dudes to masturbating over their girlfriends being pounded by other dudes.
It is a pathetic living.
False. 109. Replayed the game and counted them.

Yea. Good catch. He uses AI to write. Anyone who ever did RP with AI, soon can catch how it phrase thing, what words it uses "shiver down the spine".
I noticed a lot of usual AI slop in this game writing. That's probably why it has so much useless text. When AI is badly set up, it tends to ramble and ramble, generate overly narrative wall of text.
Biased as ever. You always go for the nuclear version of opinions. It's more than evident that he writes his own things and uses AI as a tool as a secondary tool for his writing.

Couldn't you just subscribe every few months, pay $5, then unsubscribe until a few months later? I've done that for games where I didn't want to pay every month but wanted to show some support. It's not like Tori or Patreon is forcing you to pay every month.

Thank you, Tori, for slowly but constantly developing one of the best games on this site. I liked the update, because relationships aren't just about horny. Sadly that it seems like most people will just hack the gallery on release and "go through" the game in half an hour

Absolutely if I wanted to deal with the hassle. I love the work and I don't want to just be negative as I think that's corny and every developer can do what they want to do. Just giving my perspective as a potential customer. That's all.

you'd hope there would be 15 updates worth of CGs in the game files since the size is already 2.7 fucking gigs and we're 3% into the narrative so far
3% into the narrative? Can we atleast keep the criticism honest instead of dishonest?

The dev made very terrible decisions, but honesty is not what we should sacrifice.

They have lost interest, but they're always here to tell us that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Losing interest doesn't mean I don't want to know other people's opinions, that's why the forum is not to flatter liars, it's to bring people together around a game we like, unfortunately the game's dev is lying and was caught lying about many things but that doesn't mean I'm going to abandon the forum or the game, I just won't contribute money anymore.

Now, if we're here to review and read about the game, it's because we absolutely downloaded and played the brand-new Torishakespeare update.

Excuse us, Tori, you're a misunderstood genius (in the business).
