Finally something worthwhile.
DPC: so, too much shitstorm due to the drama of yesterday's status report. I’ll calm down the peasants a bit and give them a really good preview. Am I not a genius?
Finally something worthwhile.
Oh you're 100% correct. I'm similar in that sense and I know for a fact that DPC is a psycho-perfectionist. I'm doing around 40-second music edit for Being a Dik and I've already spent 3 months of my free time here and there to change it or make it better.So all this milking talk...
I'll call him a milker in jest, but I don't believe it's necessarily true. DPC's work ethic, as observed from his consistent output since the conception of AL, shows that he is a driven man who can produced high quality products in this field.
After AL, DPC set his sights very high, and he knew he was up for several years of production. The issue here is that as time goes by, technology increases and with that, so does DPC's ambition.
So from our perspective, the development is starting to just drag on, but from DPC's perspective, he is putting out higher and higher quality.
It may result in this game being completed around 2030. And thinking about that now, that's a daunting wait! But for anyone picking the game up when it's complete without enduring this wait, it'll be a fucking good game. It'll be something that DPC will be proud of (as much as you can be proud of a game focusing on people fucking each other).
Actual milking would be to try to squeeze every last dollar out of the game, that would be like going back and remastering the whole game once it's finished, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, if people want it, they'll pay for it. A bad example of that is remastering older episodes before even finishing the game, that kind of milking is just unethical.
Then there's what he-who-shall-not-be-named did: Just stop production completely and still accept people's donations, and then throwing them a bone when they start to realise nothing's being done. That's not even milking, that's just outright theft, but if idiots wanna keep subscribing to someone like that, it's on them.
So is DPC adding all these animations and increasing the quality in order to prolong the development in order to rake in millions more? Or is he a fucking psycho who loves doing this shit and just can't control himself when it comes to making each episode bigger and (arguably) better than the previous one?
He's a fucking psycho. That's my take.![]()
I feel you, that game gets you hooked, the kind of game you take a day off when the new episode is outMilking, hmm.
I started a new game 2 days ago, I played the first couple of episodes on Thursday, took a few hours to play, then yesterday I played up to just after the mansion getting trashed and their first visit to the old people's home, I think the end of episode 5, start of episode 6. I started playing around midday and didn't stop, except for a couple of breaks to eat, until 1am in the morning, so it basically took 13 hours to play though 3 and a bit episodes and that's without mini games and I'm still nowhere near starting season 3 yet, which I think is Episode 9.
I've played many 'finished' mainstream games that haven't taken that long to play through, this game has given me plenty of hours of laughs and tears and has pulled a few heart strings along the way, it's probably the only game on this website where the length of time between updates has never really been a problem for me, because I know when it does drop I will probably have hours of fun playing it.
Like said, I started a new game, played through it a number of times already, this isn't my first run-through, but the point was that it still takes hours to get through the game.I feel you, that game gets you hooked, the kind of game you take a day off when the new episode is out
But once you're finished you're gonna live the agonizing wait like all of us![]()
Sampow got some nice tits lmaoAlthough I’m annoyed as much as the rest of you guys over this 60fps revelation, at least DPC mentioned how the fps increase improves the “jiggle”.

My bad, thought it was your first playthrough, I envy those who discovered the game recentlyLike said, I started a new game, played through it a number of times already, this isn't my first run-through, but the point was that it still takes hours to get through the game.

Wooooo! Yeah baby that's what I've been waiting for
Yeah, sometimes, after finishing yet another playthrough, I feel so milked that I can barely contain the urge to find that nasty milker, wherever he is hiding, and scream right in his face: “Shut up, bitch, and take my money!"Milking, hmm.

When did DPC hinted episode will end at MC's house?I'm not sure, but it looks like cheap sheets from the MC's house...If that's the case, then the final scene will be the scene in the MC's house, as DPС indirectly mentioned.
You cannot do such a huge project alone without being a little crazy or like Johnny Silverhand likes to put it "fucked in the head"I think that is probably the most accurate take. You'd have to be have so many PCs with 4090s and churn out 75,000+ renders just for one episode. Dude is insane.

He's kinda an egotistical nob but he's not a scammer or a milker his Patreon seem fine with the time taken and they're the ones that matter not us pirates and fuck even most pirates on here seem to love him. He also adds more workload not less, scammers don't tend to do that. The problem is more how Patreon development works (especially successful ones) combined with peoples belief that giving creators a completely free reign and no limits automatically = better game. Devs have little risk of running out of $$$ so release isn't an urgency as their life and dev are funded and secure so compared to most indie devs there's no real pressure to get it done. Which is why so many porn games take 5+ years to make and get bigger and bigger in scope (there are games from when I joined F95 that still are not done). A dev has little reason to focus or reign themselves in so they can adopt I do what i want with my baby and it's done when it's done attitudes. Thing is that doesn't necessarily mean a better game is made, anyone that's seen a kickstarter clusterfuck happen can vouch that focus and limits are not remotely bad things even for talented creators. Time will tell if DPC or BAD goes completely off the rails, hopefully not.Just because he is actually doing more work doesn't mean he isn't milking it. If he cut some unnessary filler, reduced the amount and length of animations he could be back to 6 months per update. If the game ends at episode 20 he could be done in 5 years and then lose his BADIK money but if he adds in some filler and makes animations longer and slightly better he can add 5 years on to the game and have an extra 5 years of all that BADIK money before he has to create a new game that may halve his monthly income.
I'm not trying to bash the guy because I and 99% of the world would do the same thing if we were in his position. If you are making an entertainment product that needs to have an end at some point and it is currently making 10k a month why end it in 5 years and create something new that could make 2k a month when you can drag each episode out to double the time. I'm sure everyone would rather have 10k a month for 10 years rather than 10k for 5 years and then possibly 2k a month for 5 years or even have to go back to a full time job.
He mentioned creating a new environment. And it was probably Nil's house. Or some other place with cheap sheets( maybe a tent?).When did DPC hinted episode will end at MC's house?
definition of milkingThat not milking tho, you agree that he is working right? He is making unnecessary shits like sfw animations, 60fps animations, etc. Just because things ain't going our ways or we ain't getting the update faster. Doesn't mean he is milking, if he wasn't working and wasn't producing quality contents. I would say that he was milking.
Maybe or maybe not. Saints Row had a lot of fans but the 2022 reboot failed. GTA Online is one of the biggest games in the world and a lot of players will defend all of Rockstar Games terrible and greedy practices but Red Dead Online made by the same company failed.Ps- His cult will support his next game, no matter how bad it is.![]()
That is why I have never said that he is milking the game before when I have seen other saying. When an episode take an extra few months because it has more content then I think he just has a lot of ideas for the episode and wants it to be bigger but when he increases animations to 60fps that adds no extra content but more of a delay to the episode then I think he is doing it just to prolong the game. It's already been 9 months and it sound like another month or two before the epsiode is out. If he didn't make any animations 60fps the episode could even be ready now.With DPC I see a guy who wants to put out more content, in what ever form, than what was in the previous episode.
60fps animations does not add a single bit of new content.He is dragging it out to develop more content
The most watched streamer on Twitch was XQC. He probably made more money in a year than DPC will in his entire life. XQC will have enough money to last his life, his kids lives and his grandkids lives but he still left the biggest streaming platform as their number 1 streamer to go to Kick a newer streaming service that a lot of people hate and he did that for money. The guy has more money than he will ever need yet still moved for more money.When he banked half a $mill for Season 1 on steam and then between $3 and $15mill for Season 2, it removed money entirely from his decision making process.
I agree that he is not a scammer. He delivers the product people pay for.He's kinda an egotistical nob but he's not a scammer or a milker his Patreon seem fine with the time taken and they're the ones that matter not us pirates and fuck even most pirates on here seem to love him. He also adds more workload not less, scammers don't tend to do that.
