Where do I even start with this shit?

"There are only two reasons why any human does anything:

1. It's a mandatory obligation
2. It benefits them in some way"

Oh yes, because nobody has ever taken time out of their day to help somebody else without expecting anything in return. Last week at the grocery store, I overheard some boomer complain about how he couldn't find a certain type of peanut butter, so I decided to help him out. We couldn't find it, but he thanked me anyways, and after that I just went on with my day. Helping that guy out wasn't my obligation, and it didn't benefit me in any way to do so (Not even on some sort of social level, seeing as how I will probably never see that guy again in my life), so if the world really works they way Alex suggest, then I wouldn't have done that. Fuck off with this cringey ass cynicism.

"If you have a desire within yourself to be violent, you will adopt a philosophy that permits you to categorize a group of people worthy of violence."
"If you have a desire within yourself to abuse and mistreat another human, you will adopt beliefs that permit you to categorize a person as being worthy of harm and harassment"
"In short, people who were already pre-disposed towards harming other human beings in the first place have decided to look at me from whatever perspective will permit them to feel justified in performing the actions they have always wanted to perform; mocking, shaming, humiliating, abusing, mistreating, harassing another human being"

Pot calling the kettle black right here.

"In reality, taking a long time to finish a video game is not actually valid justification to ridicule or harass another person. It's merely an indication that the developer is struggling with numerous obstacles, and needs help".

1: Who the fuck is criticizing Alex solely because the game is taking a long time to finish?
2: The reason Alex needs so much help at this stage to begin with is because he is unwilling to improve his own abilities, and has to ride off the back of his volunteers, whom he treats like shit and continues to do so (Hence why the number of them has gradually shrunk over the years). That's not even taking into account the fact that Alex oftentimes creates more obstacles that he has to deal with on purpose.

Dragging the development as long as possible benefits Alex in some way, since he squandered every opportunity to complete it.

Alex, people assume you are still regularly reading your thread, so let me tell you a secret - nobody here wants to play your game. Even if it wasn't a buggy piece of garbage, your approach to gamedesign is ridiculous, what is the point of making sandbox out of pure railroads, where you either do 100% what developer wants or fail? Also, I am not touching anything with a plot, written by creep like you, even with a 10 feet long stick. This thread isn't about your game, it's about you, the sideshow of you LARPing as game developer outshined your game long time ago, maybe it happened even before that fateful thread from 2014. People don't wait for the release of your game anymore, they just wonder if you quit after the Phil-Fish-tier meltdown, slowly fall into obscurity or present bland boring buggy mess, that you will generously call "a finished game", while waiting for praise from some strangers on the Internet. Spoiler: you aren't going to get any, just "son finished coding" or "chalice is empty", because you are a "laughable spectacle" in the same cage with Chris and DSP, just like you feared.

But...Yandev, you state that insults and harassment are violence, and you just love to insult your trolls. Would that not mean that you yourself are a violent person as well?

God, I love when people make up all these concepts to make others seem worse, just for those very concepts to implicate them as well.

If patreon is you salary, then you are an employee, Alex. We are just complaining to your bosses (the patreons) about your terrible work ethic and inappropriate behaviour at the job.
And one by one, they are each firing you. That is not our fault, its yours.

 

[Protistology]

The absolute madman. Lunar Scythe confirmed.

 

[Gargoyle]

The absolute madman. Lunar Scythe confirmed.

If he wasn't such a terrible person, I'd have some sympathy for him - Lunar Scythe has always been his passion project and the game he truly wanted to make but Yansim became more popular and now he's forced to work on YS, which he doesn't really care about that much. He's stuck because he knows he'd lose most of his fans if he just abandoned it and followed his dream of making LS.
He acts as if YS is going to be his magnum opus but I think a part of him just wants to get YS over with and hopes his army stays for LS - which is not going to happen because, if anything, people will want YS2 or some expansion and couldn't care less about his shitty forgotten project. He's grasping at straws here by saying the games take place in the same universe, trying to trick Yanfags into thinking this will be like a legitimate sequel.

 

[Catgirls are Love]

The absolute madman. Lunar Scythe confirmed.

This has been known for quite some time, though that's merely the oldest confirmation that I can easily remember and find; there's likely more older confirmations somewhere. Alex has quite the hard-on for his generic Flash beat-em-up waifu, except it's in Unity and commits many of the same sins against game development that YanSim does. If you're curious, you can likely still find the Lunar Scythe files on his website though you really might as well not bother; imagine any generic Flash beat-em-up, and you've essentially got Lunar Scythe except the Flash game would run better.

Perhaps we've been looking at this all wrong; YanSim wasn't Alex attempting to get praise and recognition from other's ideas and work, it's instead the trial run to learn how to make as broken a game as he can so when he returns to his true magnum opus he can make it as terrible and horrible as it could possibly be.

 

[Juan But Not Forgotten]

If he wasn't such a terrible person, I'd have some sympathy for him

I wouldn't have anyway - he was working on that game only to impress Mike Z, but when he just told him "look, it's bad, but you can make it better", he immediately dropped it and jumped on the first thing that could bring him some praise. I've always felt that he keeps inserting that abortion everywhere, because he wants to tell "see, I was right all along, the game was good, Mike is awful, he just wanted to make fun of me, he is just like the rest of them".

On the matter of passion for something, maybe LazyPurple didn't put it best, but close enough - "at some point I realized, that despite all my fears and insecurities, not making videos feels worse than making them and dealing with stress". Can you tell the same about Alex? I don't think so.

He's grasping at straws here by saying the games take place in the same universe, trying to trick Yanfags into thinking this will be like a legitimate sequel.

The thing is, he's not forced to work on YS. I mean, we've seen that by the fact the barely works on the game at all. I think he'd for sure lose some fans if he shifted gears to focus on another game, especially this late in, but if he had tried to transition at the height of his popularity, I think he could have made it work. Especially if he said he needed to finish LS to get the funding for YS, or to build up his name so he'd have weight with real devs. There's plenty of potential ways to spin it, and we know Alex isn't above lying or underhanded tactics.

 

[A Sign]

He is probably just going to have YS "end" by having it be the direct sequel to it rather than a "Yandere Sim 2" or that so-called 1980s mode

"American game".

I decided to check up on what r/Osana was doing for the first time in a little while. Was not surprised to see they are still discussing the same shit they were 2 months ago.

 

[A Sign]

I think also on r/Osana there was a thread that claimed azzman is a pedophile groomer with receipts (I think only cause besides pewdiepie and markiplier he was one of the earlier youtubers that covered YS)

 

[Juan But Not Forgotten]

Well, they aren't the only one.

Better - Azzman was the first relatively big youtuber to critique Alex about the problems with his game and then called him out on his behavior, which resulted in his videos being reported. Reports were obviously bullshit, so his videos are back, but he set most of them to private.

r/Osana will never say anything worth of value until another July 2020 (because iirc nothing of significance happened in 2019) shitstorm occurs again, which is not (and may never) gonna happen for the foreseeable future

speaking of which, I’m more shocked most of their members are so fucking attached to this practically dead drama (I mean really, unless you’re DEEP DEEP, it’s dead) that they still lurk there for any small fish they can find

July 2019? What happened then?

This may sound like a brainfart, but I wonder if this game could've been successful if it came out soon after the initial builds were made. Mainly because back then, there was no real Hitman titles. Sure, there was absolution, but many fans were disatisfied with that game, so if it came out during that content drought, I feel like it could've scratched the hitman itch they were looking for. Of course, since then, an entire trilogy has been released with many fans considering it just as good, if not even better than blood money. Now, it's forever going to live in the shadow of the current trilogy, not that it ever had much of a chance, but it's fun to imagine a world where YanSim could've been a temporary hitman alternative, at least until the 1st season of the trilogy came out.

If by that you mean "before the release of the first game from Hitman reboot series on the March 11-th 2016", then no, it would've not helped much. Not only the game was even buggier and less optimized than it is today (yeah, imagine that), it didn't have rivals in any meaningful wayl, even long-suffering Osana. It also didn't have clubs and had way less students. If you wanna know what would've happened, look at Yandere School. This is also why Alex was getting away with that shit for so long - he just said "this is not a finished product" every time. It stopped working only after he failed every possible deadline to present this "finished product".

TL;DR - I doubt that buggy alpha build would've had any resemblance of success just because there wasn't any good Hitman games around.

 

[BScCollateral]

For certain values of "came out" I agree.

If it were released on schedule, in a reasonably playable state then, yeah, probably. However, that's just saying good game developers release decent games and decent games have a shot at being successful. But then, no thread.
