Does anyone know what the next story planet will be, and if there is an ETA on it?

Professional writers don't just ignore the plot for 2 years and fill everything else around it with fluff that has no meaning other that hosting another character or two for you to go fuck for the next 5 minutes. There hasn't been a single reason to go to any of the other "planets" or stations that have been added for the last 2 years. Also, I don't get where this "something for nothing" thing comes from when, again, Fen literally made Corruption of Champions with like no money. Alder also made a game to with like no money as well. The issue with your argument is that you state this "donation" money ceases being donations when it ends up being payment to compensate these "professional writers' " time, and pay for their own personal expenses that don't count towards the game.
FoE didn't get through its first act before it died. That's a pretty shite point to bring up if you ask me.

TiTs has more content then CoC and FoE combined and THEN some. It overall has better characters and a lot of concurrent writers compared to those games. If FenCo werent making money on a daily basis we, we would still be on Tarkus.

until TiTS became a thing and raked in all the money that he prompted abandoned CoC and begrudgingly "finished" it.
CoC had been abandoned ages before the arrival of TiTS. If the old forums were still readily available, I'd link here to the "elephant in the room" and "beating a dead horse" threads and messages.

Fen literally made Corruption of Champions with like no money.
There were monthly donation drives. And controversy around them at times.

TiTS objectively has more content.
Or, objectively, more imperial text walls. That said, I suspect TiTS has more events and scenes than CoC did at this point.

If you're giving Fen some money on a monthly basis, you're doing it because you think he, and by extension everybody who works for him, deserve it. You don't even have to fucking wait to get the free build he releases monthly, if that's something that's an utter affront to you. This is the internet. It would take me all of two minutes to find a pirate build of the latest release somewhere.

Maybe you don't think Fen deserves your money; maybe you have serious reservations about how he structures things, or his game design decisions. That's fine, I've got criticisms of those myself. Lay them out and we'll discuss them. But don't pretend for a moment we aren't talking about the softest paygate imaginable here. Basically what you're worked up about is that thousands of people do think Fen deserves five dollars a month, because they enjoy what he's producing. Frankly I think there are much more popular video game IPs out there that are more deserving of your ire.

Do you also not donate to charities because as soon as they use that money to pay the staff it's no longer a good cause?
Nah, I don't donate to charities because most of them don't do shit except be the middleman between your wallet and a company that could actually do shit for the world. Last time I checked, all the Cancer research charities and foundations that people have donated to still can't cure it. Meanwhile, people who were infected with Ebola, are cured off-screen with nothing more than a news story.

FoE didn't get through its first act before it died. That's a pretty shite point to bring up if you ask me.
You completely missed my point. The point was that it doesn't take $200,000 of initial capital investment and continuous "donations" to make a flash game. Hence why I said, CoC and FoE. What I would say is, I bet that Alder got 200k in a Offbeatr campaign and 30k a month in donations, they'd work their ass off on FoE.

TiTs has more content then CoC and FoE combined and THEN some. It overall has better characters and a lot of concurrent writers compared to those games. If FenCo werent making money on a daily basis we, we would still be on Tarkus.
You're right, except for the better characters part, because all of that other content that other people like Hugs, Wsan, JimT wrote for the game, wouldn't exist.

Lol No.
Alder has said himself that he has very little motivation to work on FoE.
Jsyk, Alder HAD a working Patreon for FoE, he WAS making money off it, but he froze the campaign since there was literally no point making money off a dead game that isn't getting content, even less-so since his two best character writers have left due to the game's long hiatus.

Money isn't the only motivator for making shit, it can be for some but it's a part of it (A large part but whateves), not exactly the end-all-be-all.

Also you keep using the 'Fen didn't make money off CoC' excuse for him to not do it with TiTS. Newsflash man, creators can't make shit for free anymore, especially when freelancing.

But no seriously. I'm assured you have no idea how content for this game functions. Are you really that upset that some people donate money to get an unreifined and buggier versions of TiTs content early? There's no pay wall at all to this game. You get big content updates every month for free. You're not forced to donate. You don't get any legendary porn packs for donating. It's literally a choice in of itself.

First off, FenCo DO work their asses off for TiTs. You just disagree with that cause they arent working on what you want them to. So tough shit.

Name all the bad characters in TiTs that Fen and Savin wrote. See if people agree with you.

>tfw CoC has just as much dickgirl content as TiTs

Come on man. Don't try and make it out like CoC was objectively better content wise. That "soul" was mostly half-finished plot threads and unfilled story arcs that went fucking nowhere. Not because "lol Fen only puts dickgirls in the game" but because most of the people writing them flaked out and disappeared from the face of the Earth.

Oh, don't worry None, I talk about the popular stuff too like everyone else in the world. My question is, like the OP, when is the next addition to the plot? Surely, we can't all just expect to diddle around on the same 3-4 planets for eternity. I'm sure there's quite a number of people who are patrons who ask that same question. I just don't get how in like 4 years that TiTS has been around, we only have 3 story related planets, but like 70% of the rest of the game is just there to kill time. I just feel that $200k+ and 4 years time hasn't been allocated well and that the people who give them money as a "thanks" should get more than just, "You get to bug test builds earlier".

Don't try and make it out like CoC was objectively better content wise. That "soul" was mostly half-finished plot threads and unfilled story arcs that went fucking nowhere.

You just described 60% of this game...

As i said about the fact story planets arent being worked on that much. Tough.Shit.

Difference. TiTs is still being worked on. CoC is finished.

When i said professional, i just meant that they financially support themselves by writing for a living. The quality of their work is open to interpretation. And their failure to follow through as well. However enough people continue to believe their project is worth financially supporting for the game to continue to be financially sustainable.

You realize that nothing you say here will change anything.

Kiro (She's just Urta)
Gianna (Because she doesn't amount to anything but a fuck-bot)
Pretty much everyone on New Texas, because they serve no purpose.
Celise is just there
I actually like Reaha
Azra is basically just Minerva
Syri is basically just Heckel, but not as awful. So, she's alright.
There's probably more, but I'd have to go through and see who wrote what since there's plenty of characters with like 3-4 different people accredited to them.

How about the Gabilani? we should see some more content with them involved, that and their cybernetics, but that kind of thing can start off small, for example, some kind of cybernetic fluid that replaces blood and makes you immune to the cold and some diseases or something along those lines. (Viva la Goblin)

The thing is TiTs actually has hope of being finished and what story arcs there are have actually been finished. Character wise anyway. I'm sorry that you think the various writers for TiTs aren't giving you finished content but you can't rush people. 95% of the writers for this game aren't even employed to TiTs development and just decided to donate their skills and ideas as content because they like the game that much. Like holy shit, one of the developers already mentioned that the next story planet is coming early next year ffs. One of them is literally rebuilding the game from the ground up for Ship Combat as their house is deteriorating around them and one almost died. Like come on man. Have some fucking patience ffs and get off your entitled moral high horse.

Unlike CoC, TiTs is not a spaghetti mess of code and Fen has actual desire to work on it. The game will get done and the story content will progress. Do none of your "lol Fen is dirty money grubber living off 30k of furgold" people understand this?

Eh. Going with the general flow of the thread. I play for free, but I do my small part and advertise the game by word of mouth to other bored internet denizens. I have no shame.

Also y'all are too soft. You need to tighten up. I slew the Frost Wyrm with nothing but my trusty essyra great spear, a weave mail coat, and some crystal shards as a level eight merc. You have no idea how appreciative I was just for the backpack upgrades.

Blacjak, if you truly hate so much why play? the backers are people happy with the games progress rate and style of content. the typical player cares more about character scenes and the sexual pay off that results. if a backer gets too frustrated they can stop supporting. not to mention a lot of writers basically donate content, writing via commission or there on desire. and at the end of the day, your opinion on everyone won't change anything. just induce some eye rolls. so just play the parts you enjoy and wait patiently. or commission content that would satisfy you.

There's probably more, but I'd have to go through and see who wrote what since there's plenty of characters with like 3-4 different people accredited to them.

Kiro: I wouldnt say her and Urta are the same, they certainly are similar. But i asked you for BAD characters, so unless Urta is bad character this is moot.
Gianna: Meh. She actually has a personality system that changes her sex scenes depending how you talk to her. And a fuck bot wouldnt have that level of personality.
New Texas: Maybe
Celise: As far as i know she has had like 6 authors who worked on her, all with degrees of content. I wouldnt say she's a Fen penned character then.
Reaha: Why did you mention her then, i said list bad characters
Azra: They are of similar appearence but they are no where close to being the same. And Minerva wasnt a bad character eitehr.
Syri: Thats funny. No. Like REALLY funny.

Keep the salt coming. This is hilarious.
