Today marks the 2nd month since Aortta should have released the update. The Dude went completely silent and still earns money. This totally disgusts me. I'm no mod/staff member, but isn't it finally time to add the " abandonned " tag to this thread ?

I am just curious how much content is in the game for a such uncompressed file size.
Nowhere near where it should be with a file of the size that they have. I made a post about it earlier on where most of it is their image compression leaving their HD/4k pictures uncompressed/not in webp but they are decent renders (Not sure on their set up/their team's set up. Long story short I'm estimating around 1.8gbs worth of uncompressed images/animations).

If you were to compare this to a DMD which is a fairly hefty file by itself, the content difference between the two is best described as "exponentially different".

Considering the most of the team have full time jobs so that they don't dedicate all their time to this, it's understandable but also can't really give a fair comment whether it's their design style or just a lack of time.

Been such a long time since I've looked into this. Fortunately I didn't delete their zip file. Ok so they use a mix of both jpeg and png with approx 1.3gigs (This is their episode 2 images folder less sounds and videos which were inside) of mixed HD & 4K jepgs purely for episode 2. Each image is roughly 1 - 3mbs each and there's a number of them. Then they have a separate images folder (I think it's for episode 1 of around 0.5gigs) so call it 1.8 gigs of images or thereabouts.

Realistically, they need to have a second thought around compression if they're sending out roughly 1.8 gigs of images. Just depends if they ever get around to updating their patrons and release their reloaded game before other games finish up. Based on their past release schedules, there's an argument that some devs could potentially finally finish their sagas before Aorrta release their first chapter of their reloaded game. It's such a shame to make that kind of comment but devs actually have finished games.

dude there is a big difference between a long hiatus and many aorrta doest this all the time and is untrustworthy if i say he is dead that means dead for us..
if you cant handle a pun then ignore it
I simply tried to express with a few words that joking about someone's at least possible death isn't even half as funny as you might expect and definitely no "pun". And why ignore if you can answer back...? ;)

I will never understand why Devs do things like disabling rollback with mousewheel.. all it does is make the game more annoying to play cause you need to save nonstop.

if aorrta steals time money and trust then he is dead simple.

You deleted the return at the end of the line. So
config.console = False
config.console_history_size = 100

became
config.console = False config.console_history_size = 100

It's very important when monkeying with code that you do things precisely.

If you check his website he updated it to "The Secret - Reloaded (or maybe I was late to notice it.) And it had new images and all.
