Ren'Py Power Vacuum [Ch. 12 Official] [What? Why? Games]

[CoomerKing]

If this isn't an April fools joke, damn. What a way to ruin your reputation. Impressive really. Waiting until the last few days of the month while keeping your subscribers in the dark, knowing it won't release in said month while promising so.

Hilarious. And to be honest, even if it is an April fools joke, it sure is a very bad one.

My goodness, all these tragedies that happen to developers right before the release dates, the world is so unfair.

Needing a couple of months or more, hours before the release

naaaah how the fuck was planing to release this month?

Either a joke or for real, its WILD

did the creator of this game died

Lets wait until Tuesday. And if you don't like how its going you can stop to support the dev. If you don't support the dev i think it's meaningless to be upset at all.

 

[MorganFreemansToe]

People saying it's an April fool's prank but comprising yourself financially and potentially losing the trust of the people that fund your livelihood would truly be the dumbest prank of all time. I don't care about the delay, if it's not done then it's not done. I don't care. But the way it was announced a few days before he said it would be out is very strange.

I'm just wondering but, what do we think the percentage is at now since January? Closer to 95% or 98%?

I think he's stalling because he's working on the next updates of the final epilogues for each character (at least the 3 main ones)
I think it's already finished for a while..."my hypothesis", he's just stalling for the next job because I don't think he wants to work in the summer

This thread has reached unbelievable amounts of coping. I suggest everyone goes outside to touch grass and breath some fresh air

It's not about how many times he's lied compared to other devs. Let's keep the goalpost in the correct field. No one likes a liar, especially one that takes money from people. Suddenly offering a refund when your back's up against the timeline you have been lying about doesn't suddenly absolve you, people will rightfully be upset. The fact that it's a porn game doesn't suddenly make it not a product people paid for and anticipated. The defenders can do their thing but unfortunately minimalizing people's anger doesn't make you right or appear more mature. This isn't WWG's discord or patreon, it's a forum, people get to speak negatively about him if they want, especially when he lies.

If it's a prank, cool, it missed the mark but worked as a great distraction from missing a weekend release entirely.

the game is really an April fools joke, with 5 years of planning.

Its not an April Fool's prank, how do I know? its March 30th bruh

Calling him a half assed worker right after saying he puts out good content is just silly to say in my opinion. He has acknowledged months ago that a year wait for an update is far too long and addressed how he will start sticking to shorter update times with less content after this update. Why do you guys always try to justify why you supposedly stopped giving the dev money? Life happens. We are all bummed that the update is delayed but there are many of us that will continue to support him because we love his work and the story that he has built for us to experience. And I'm not cracking on anyone who isn't able to support the dev financially, but it's incredibly unfair to label someone we don't know a scam artist because they delayed their game update. And it's not cool to call his supporters chumps either. Without support what incentive is there to continue to create the game?

He delays and lies constantly. Stop acting like this is the first time. He waits until the last minute on purpose. Like I said assuming this isn’t a very dumb April Fools joke, he’s known it would be delayed for a long time and kept it to himself purposely until the last day.

Also having the talent and ability to make something good, doesn’t equal a good worker. There are many talented people who are flat out lazy, he has the talent to make an amazing game, in my opinion he’s also a lazy milker and has been for a long time.

Precisely and also the chance that this is actually something personal or it might be something else is also ridiculous considering how close to the deadline this had happened.

I personally don't like to speculate but unless he actually provides more info the next couple of days elaborating on game state etc, the possibly of it being something else besides IRL stuff and him taking advantage of us is just inexcusable.

 

[strenif]

Ya. You lost me when you brought your politics into it.

 

[elbo911]

FWIW, I see no reason to impute to WWG that he acted in bad faith. Things come up sometimes. That's just my opinion ofc, and other people are entitled to have their own. But...

If you're a patron, you have access to WWG's patreon feed and the discord. Voice your concerns and accusations there, where WWG would actually be able to clear things up, communicate, defend himself maybe. That won't happen here, your rants here are just spam.

If you're not a patron (e.g. me) - you don't matter. Be thankful for what you get for free and shut up about things you can only speculate about anyways. You don't know anything and you don't have to. Your whining is just spam as well.

 

[elbo911]

Nah dude, if I see dogshit in the middle of the walkway, im gonna say "Watch out! Theres dogshit right there" doesnt matter if I have anything to do with the dog that shat there, you feel me?

Makes sense and I would totally do the same. I just doubt your ability to discern between a dog turd and a lollipop.

 

[Snugglepuff]

If you find the latest occurence analogous to a "lollipop" then good for you man, good for you.

It's as analagous to a lollipop, as it is to not warning someone of imminent dog shit in their path...
