I'm curious, as I see a lot of people complaining about this thread/game not receiving an "abandoned" tag. How does the tag affect the games development? It's not as if there will be any monetary decline if/when it gets the tag, right? Or am I missing something here? Also some poeple said that DC is pushing an update because of the possiblity of the tag.

The decision may have been made at the beginning of the year but that wasn't when coding stalled. Coding stalled back in September of last year. Coding has been stuck at 69% since at least last october (there is a pic of the progress, from then, somewhere back in the morass that is this thread). My question is, why has the coding stalled? Because only patreon subs can see the progress reports we do not have a clear idea of what has been going on. Being a coder myself I do not see a reason why the coding stopped. If they made a decision to roll out the updates in small bits you'd think they would have started that back when the coding came to a halt in order to start debugging.
Interesting because my posts here #73,284 and here #73,564 would say otherwise, I do apologize for the lack of screenshots with the second you'll just have to take my word on that, just because percentage doesn't move doesn't mean task aren't getting done case in point this month they've closed out 5 posing task yet the needle hasn't moved much I greyed out the older task.

That's not a shadowban. That's a regular ban. A shadowban is a ban someone doesn't notice, like when you just get removed from searchs on Xitter.
I mean, most of the other users didn't notice it, including myself at first. I genuinely thought people just left.

Depends on the game. Some people usually won't try a game marked as abandoned, because you'll only get a half-assed experience that isn't finished, or worse, a promising game that doesn't have any more activity.

STS case is special, though, I genuinely believe this is a "too big to fall" sort of scenario. That being said, marking games without updates as abandoned IS part of the site's rules, so it is unfair that some games are marked as abandoned, while this one isn't. I bet it doesn't have anything to do with the fact that some mods here also work for DC.

Well, a shadowban in Discord's case would have the person still be part of the server, but their posts cannot be seen. So in this case, it's just a sneaky standard ban that just doesn't get announced.

Sure. Still a pretty despicable practice, though.

For what i understand first update will tiny, about 2 scenes at most, he will be releasing the game by the same size update every 2-3 months, i mean people waiting years for it to be released like this and the excuse its for testing for bugs.
I read the notice as both updated Debbie and Jenny routes in full. I guess once it’s eventually out we can get an insight into what we’ll actually be getting in the updates and will know what to expect next.

Sure I agree with the point of enforcing equal rules for everyone.
But poeple saying that DC is pushing the update because of this tag is a huge cope imho.

dude i'm legit sad about this whole thing. i miss the times when i actually got excited about this game with the people on here, i remember the good times with the teacher update, the roxxy update, the eve update and so on. where did it go so wrong? DC should have just canceled the dating systema and all this other pie in the sky shit, kept the original resolution and shitty code and just finished the last couple updates: judith, annie, rhonda, a remake of the mia update, sex club library (we would have gotten those by now) and then started a new project. where did it all go so wrong? it's been going downhill even before the tech update with the pretty underwhelming main story updates tbh

Read it like that, too. Like they're releasing each finished story in pieces, with the 'house' stories being the first done upon release. So Debbie and Jenny. Which, I guess many people actually only care about because incest.

Holy shit I've been reading the Discord and how the fuck did Dogeek keep his job as long as he did. Apparently on top of being an unlikable cunt to everyone. He named a bunch of variables "booger aids" and never left any comments on any of his work while also doing everything as stupidly complex as possible to show off what a smarty pants coder he was.

I wouldn't say it is as much for the tag as it is because patrons getting incredibly upset already. That being said, it is weird that they made the announcement today, considering that today is the day that there are no excuses about the deadline for the abandoned tag.

Want to know something funny? The game has made more money while we waited for the tech update than it did when the game was being constantly updated.

and no one else in the team or DC bothered to ask him during the whole time they were working together why he was naming the variables like that or why he wasn't leaving any comments?

Dogeek is the current or old coder?

While I have been following the news page for the past couple of years, I have never taken a screen shot of it. But this is the shot from last october that I remember concerning the progress of code.

From -
View attachment 3020501

The next status update report is expected in 10-11 days. Until then: #72,879
And the current state is 69% .. yes, back then it was 162 of 233 tasks. But now it is only 178 of 255 tasks .. Still at 69%. 16 tasks done and, I believe, none of them completed this year. If nothing else that bugs/issues bar should have been seeing some action if coding had progressed far enough to start testing.
