I think I've got about an hour in this game and it's already telling me that I've seen all of the available content of the public release.

I think the at style is charming, I like that it's more of a relaxed storyline (so far), all of the little touches really make the game feel good, it's good work.

Just... The time it took for acts 1&2 to come out, 1.5 years for both acts, vs now nearly 3 years for act 3...

There just not enough content to fall in love with a project that's taking this long to come out with a new update.

it's important to remember that only 2 independent people are in this project and they might not be able to do as much coding as before, or do more coding than before depending on how their lives go.
They might have the statistics and values and see if their efforts meet the expectations, which can't be too motivating if your game isn't dang popular...
In short, let's not forget the workers on this game are only 2 independent people minding their own lives...

Stardew Valley was made by one person in 4.5 years. This is two people you say sitting on 4.5 years and they only have an hour's worth of content.

Let that sink in.

I don't want to be rude or harsh but I don't get it, why do they "have to" make a game in short time period? it could be 3 people, 4 or 100, doesn't matter, that's not their full time job. Are you looking for NSFW workers to hire? that's not how and where you do it. And besides, this game offers more content and gameplay than most other NSFW furry games I've played here, might not be the best but it's good.
It's just wrong to compare and judge 2 independent people who made a NSFW furry game for others to play, to someone who had the skills of coding a game like Stardew Valley.
Perhaps if you didn't fund hundreds of dollars to them, they don't really own you too much and that's not your concern,, right?

I think it's important to remember that this is a review, and there's nothing unethical about saying why I think this game is not worth me dedicating a monthly portion of my income for content that is barely trickling out. I don't get how you can't understand that. I think it's important to remember most of us have other monetary obligations that leave us with too few dollars to spare on entertainment, and would rather be informed before we've invested our money into someone else's weekend tinkering. It's like buying someone else's kid a new model airplane to build every month. It's cute, and that kid sure appreciates it, but people just don't have the cash to be giving to every kid that might appreciate it.

Now tell me you don't understand THAT either.

its been updated to act 3 hell its on act 3.5 now the itch has been abandoned its patreon only

Then we're not interested. It's one thing to charge a fee to play the game, it's another thing entirely to expect people to pay a monthly premium to play a game that's taking several years, at this rate over a decade, to complete.

You patrons are being milked at this point.

But is there any act 4 content on the patreon? If not, 3.5 just means they are either 50% done with the act 3 content, or are still working on making adjustments to act 3 before releasing the full act here and moving on to act 4 on the patreon.
