That's just another grifty ass early access milking machine.carnal instinct has fallen...
billions must play wild life
Especially games that get that amount of funding through crowdfunding sites. They don't have an incentive to ever finish the game nor even make it complete enough. Better stall as long as possible and get that sweet patreon revenue each month.If there is any takeaway from the 5-ish years I have had this thread saved and the game on Steam, it's to never buy Early access games again.
No. I recommend you blacklist the unreal engine tag if you're looking for games to play on Android.Can we play this on Android please tell me ??
well, at least there is regular updates on patreon page (not patron-locked) and they are adding new animation on a regular basis. I mean, WL team.That's just another grifty ass early access milking machine.![]()
Can you point me to the post where they said they're going to stop working on the game and take a break? The latest post on their website is for the Christmas update where they said they decided not to do crunch time over the holiday period like they had done in prior years, and so were delaying some of the nearly complete content.I think I am done supporting this game. The devs keep making excuses for not delivering what they promise. I think if they keep doing that then they should disable their patreon and other payments until they are ready to start working on the game again. Even their website says they aren't going to be working on stuff for awhile because of "kids" now...as if all the devs have the same aged kids or something. And they also said they were taking a break from "crunch" but If there were "crunch" there would be some actual story content. The ue5 version still has nothing meaningful compared to the original ue4 version that they decided to abandon for Stutter Engine 5 aka Unreal engine 5.
TLDR if they want to take a long break (which they have and still are according to their last post on their website) then they should disable the donations until they are ready to start working on the game again instead of still taking money from people.
LOL sure bro their previous excsuse was their kids. Now they are pulling the typical "hospital" thing that literally every patreon creator does. Go to wild life and beasts in the sun. Same excuse for slow updates "so and so is in hospital" so either every patreon creator has the worst luck humanly possible (but only once slacking off) or they get lazy and just want to still keep taking money for as long as possible before finally trying to actually release the game. Even one of the devs for one of those games got caught lying since they didn't even have a wife and when they got called out they deleted the tweet.Can you point me to the post where they said they're going to stop working on the game and take a break?

There's also been no indication that they're planning to break schedule on their Discord. No announcements of delays or anything like that, though Echo did post that his work in particular has been delayed but emphasized that it covers content that is several updates out from what we're soon to see:

Like, I get being disgruntled that the game updates slowly and unhappy with how thinly the content in UE5 is spread, but if you're equating "We’ve previously had a habit of working right upto (and including) Christmas day and honestly we decided that we needed to ease off a little this year." with "Even their website says they aren't going to be working on stuff for awhile" then maybe you should reevaluate your own work environment because the kind of hours they pulled the prior Christmas were obscene.
No, I'm genuinely curious. If they said they're temporarily stopping work on the game, I would love to know so I can copy the full news post into this thread, like I do with most news posts they make. So please, what's the link to the news post? I'm having trouble finding it.LOL sure bro
So in other words you're saying it's the exact same news post that I directly quoted, from December, where they announced that some of the content originally announced in that update has been delayed to the next update (which is due within the next two weeks)?we realised we weren’t going to be getting an interactive Drake or Naga into this update without pulling a serious amount of crunch (and even then it would be devoid of it’s lead-in quest).
We’ve previously had a habit of working right upto (and including) Christmas day and honestly we decided that we needed to ease off a little this year. Kids won’t stay small forever and some of ours don’t have many years left where it’s quite as magic; we didn’t want to sacrifice that to push out half-baked content. I hope everyone understands and it’s not too much of a letdown that you’ll have to wait a little longer to get your hands on the Naga and Drake.
Like I said earlier, there are plenty of reasons to be disgruntled with the devs of this game. The bugs and lack of QA, for one. The way content is spread far too thinly in the oversized UE5 map, for another. Their constant rearranging of the roadmap, and their inability to provide clear and consistent updates and communication on development status.Even their website says they aren't going to be working on stuff for awhile because of "kids" now...as if all the devs have the same aged kids or something.

How is that a lie? You just listed the same thing but reworded it. The thin spread, the constant rearranging, no clear updates, communication, or development status...whilst ignoring the excuses constantly given for that. Why leave out the excuses? Why are you cherry picking? They gave excuses for all of that yet you ignore the excuses given. The excuses have been the typical "kids" and "hospital" excuses that EVERY SINGLE SLOW MOVING PATREON GAME MAKES. Hence me saying that either every single one of them has the worst luck of any human on the planet OR they purposely do this to get revenue for as long as possible purposely doing this insanely slow process. Its kinda funny that it never happens with AAA or AA game devs, it only happens with insanely slow PATREON ADULT GAMES. Maybe being a patreon dev is just cursed since everyone of them has the same word for word excuses.So in other words you're saying it's the exact same news post that I directly quoted, from December, where they announced that some of the content originally announced in that update has been delayed to the next update (which is due within the next two weeks)?
And you're framing that as, and I quote:

You don't need to make stuff up and lie in order to criticize these devs.
Again, look at the parts of your post that I quoted:How is that a lie? You just listed the same thing but reworded it.

These are lies. They are blatantly untrue. Even the portion of the news post you quoted in your now-deleted post disagreed with you on that front. There is no long break, there is no "aren't going to be working on stuff for awhile".Even their website says they aren't going to be working on stuff for awhile because of "kids" now...as if all the devs have the same aged kids or something.

Dude I literally quoted what they said when they said it was because of their kids. I am done arguing. I love big tits and ass as much as everyone else, However I am not going to make excuses just because I like tits and ass. so many of these games do this crap. I will come back in a few months to see if they finally add some more story to the UE5 version.Again, look at the parts of your post that I quoted:

I'm not saying they don't have problems delivering content they've promised. They absolutely do have issues with scheduling, communication, and follow-through. What I am saying is that you don't need to lie about these developers in order to criticize them, because they offer more than enough points to criticize that are perfectly legitimate and grounded in reality.
Caveat Emptor - Buyer BewareWhen people are giving you patreon money they expect something in return other than "ooopsie we can't complete this part because -insert same thing everyone else says-" But keep giving us your patreon money and we will eventually start pushing out more content thanks for your understanding"
You deleted the post where you quoted them, but kept the post where you misrepresented that quote and its context. That is not the same thing.Dude I literally quoted what they said when they said it was because of their kids. I am done arguing. I love big tits and ass as much as everyone else, However I am not going to make excuses just because I like tits and ass.
We have a team big enough that we dont need to write about everyones individual sickness or issues with kids in update posts. Our guys are professional enough to deal with such issues discretely and privately. Also we never had anyone hospitalized for long enough periods of time to even consider mentioning it. So youre just talking out of your ass ... as always.Go to wild life and beasts in the sun. Same excuse for slow updates "so and so is in hospital" so either every patreon creator has the worst luck humanly possible
