I'm not a fan of the one that's being worked on now either. This game was truly superior in every way.
Im always confused about these kind of games anyway, who wants to play a bad or at max average card game just because there are some titties

In that case just play a good card game.

Dont get the dev either, its like downgrading your product for no reason at all. Like he woke up and thought "Hmm i think i want to become a worse dev! That would be awesome!"

lol I have that general attitude towards AVNs in the first place. There are so many options out there, even dating sim eroge stuff that are mainstream, with way better writing and production. To me these indie ones really only make sense for niche fetishes, so this one was good for that. Anything vanilla there are already way better choices. So for me I just check out some femdom stuff on this site, otherwise I play normal games if I want to play something.

Well, my understanding of the back story is this:

MrSilverLust was (and probably still is) a big fan of Slay the Spire. After he released chapter 6, he was feeling like he needed a break from NIF. So he decided to try making a card battle style game as small side project for fun, and also experiment with the new AI tools to learn more about them. After he got the minimum version done and released it (for free) he went back and did another two releases of NIF, chapter 7 part 1 and 2, and then a released a minor update for DIL in Sept'24. After that we have not really heard anything more about either game.

So It's not as though this small side project is the specific reason that NIF has not had a release for ~10 months. Nor is MrSL currently publicly working on Decked In Love now - he seems to have just gone to ground completely.

I honestly hope MrSL is not having troubles in the "real world", and this hiatus is just "normal" burnout from putting so much of his energy in NIF for 3 years straight. I'm grateful for the chance to work with hin, and of course I'm sad that we can't see the continuation or conclusion, but ... that's just the way it goes.

I mean yeah, Slay the Spire IS awesome, the thing is you dont create anything comparable to it as a little side project, you will either have to dive in really deep and make it creative and complex which is not easy to create (and probably not really what most adult fans here are looking for) or you will create a kinda cheap garbage card game really nobody needs

Did he stopped patreon subscriptions during the developmend of decked in love (between chapter 6 and 7 according to you? Otherwise that was not free and instead subsidized by his nif patreons. But i have to clue what happened there and i dont really care, hes the dev and he can do what he want as long as people are paying or he doesnt need the money.
