Release date V0.83
Added 2018-10-12 11:47:29 +0000 UTCHey guys,
Sorry to bother you again, but I really need your input on this one:
Redoing Veronica took a lot more time than I expected, but I think it's a major improvement. Now the question is, should I do the other girls as well?
If I do, I won't be able to make the release on the 19th and I know how much you appreciate my (normal) 2-weekly update schedule.
I could also just leave them as they are and let you experience Veronica's changes, so you guys can let me know if you think it's worth changing the other girls.
But this will mean the savegames will probably be incompatible between the next few updates and will probably be a bit more work in the long run.
I know I won't be able to please everyone, but I promise that either way, we'll get to the new content soon and I think it will be worth the wait, as I have some great storylines planned (and one last surprise character introduction)!
So, what would you prefer?
A: Release on the 19th, it's been too long, I don't care about some bugs and outdated dialogs, I just want to get to the new storylines as soon as possible.
B: Release late October/early November and get a completely stable and updated version, so you can focus completey on content updates after that.
Thanks for your input!

That is hilarious. Best poll ever. It will be done when it's done.

2018-10-20 02:46:51 +0000 UTCTranslations are generally always one update behind, because the translators start working on the version as soon as I release it and have 2 weeks to catch up.

2018-10-12 20:22:37 +0000 UTCWhat about translations? Last update was done over 80%, will this new version have all texts translated? (I'm talking about Spanish translation that is the one I play).

2018-10-12 19:28:05 +0000 UTCyeah,take your time this is an awesome game and I would hate to se you rush it. MoTH is the best game I have played and very first game I patreoned.
2018-10-12 17:50:29 +0000 UTCTake as much time as you need.
2018-10-12 17:12:32 +0000 UTCDon't worry, the end is not coming for a long time ;)

2018-10-12 16:20:51 +0000 UTCI’ve waited this long another week or two wouldn’t bother me.

2018-10-12 15:51:45 +0000 UTCYep I know, but thanks! And you had to ruin this by talking about "the end." :(

2018-10-12 15:24:00 +0000 UTCThanks uncejay! Just to be clear (and not get your hopes is), this update won't have a lot of new content yet, as it will focus on creating a stable version for future updates, all the way to the end. So after this update, I can focus 100% on adding new content.

2018-10-12 14:01:48 +0000 UTCHonestly, the one thing about developers (in general) that bothers me the most is releasing an update that's buggy, and then having to wait for a hotfix, etc. So if the update is released with new Veronica content, but all the other women are bugged, that would ruin the experience for me. This is one of my favorite games, and I can wait another week or two to have the bugs squashed, and as much new content as possible!

2018-10-12 13:55:14 +0000 UTCHey faerin, I am glad you posted this status-update. Take all the time you need! Keep up your great work. 😎

2018-10-12 13:49:13 +0000 UTCI think I speak for most people when I say would love to see the “updated” Veronica as soon as possible, but don’t want the game to be really buggy and become a lot of work for you if it’s not gonna notice much, if you could do a release with the new Veronica and then release a poll afterwards to get people’s feedback on her then you might have a easier decision to make regarding the rest of the characters, I will repeat myself from previous comments and say I don’t mind the wait for quality content but must admit you have teased us big time with Veronica...If it’s a case of the game being a bit buggy in between the next couple of updates while we see the new “V” then I wouldn’t mind that at all.
2018-10-12 12:51:24 +0000 UTCThis is supposed to improve the replay experience, so I would say, fix all girls and plot lines. So everybody may have a clean restart and an enjoyable experience.

2018-10-12 12:28:33 +0000 UTCI was actually considering releasing an in between update and I might still do that. The problem is that it will be very buggy for the other girls. But I guess if I make that very clear, it should be fine.
Faerin
2018-10-12 12:05:21 +0000 UTCI would say either is fine.....but I would say maybe release it with just Veronica updated and get people's opinion how they like the update and tweaks.......Would suck to do all that work and people really not even take notice....let alone all that work on multiple characters. But I am not opposed either way to releasing as is or taking your time til you get the others tweaked as well.
2018-10-12 11:54:01 +0000 UTCSince this will require to start from the beginning, it makes much more sense (to me) to do this once when the rework is done, not several times.
