Not even gonna get involved in the Jelly mess with a ten-foot pole, but I will say that in exactly sixteen days (where I live, anyway) it will be the tenth anniversary of a game that was ostensibly supposed to come out between five and seven years ago.

I mean, what the fuck. Obviously I want to keep the ride going because it's fun to point and laugh about a project that has nearly taken as long as GTA 6 to develop, if not longer (and because KF would be out of a conspicuous job - although not the only job - if we didn't have him to laugh at).

But jesus, man. Almost ten years. (And on April 1, it will really be ten years.) What a ride it's been.

Can you imagine spending nearly 20% of your expected adult lifespan, just to be a failed laughing stock on the internet and not even be done with it yet?

He might get it up to 25% by the time its actually 'done' at the rate he's going.

I have long given up hope that he will release it without being forced to. If, by some miracle, the game reaches enough of a state to be called "reasonably complete", I still don't think it'll come out without external intervention. This man is 40 goddamn years old and has spent his last ten years "working" on Yandere Simulator.

Alex is just too damn lazy and is so utterly lacking in self-discipline that he fucked around and did nothing substantive for nearly ten years. I mean, it's 2024, for crying out loud, and there is still only one (maybe two) out of ten rivals in the game. Is that the kind of legacy Alex wants to leave behind? Hell if I know, but I'd be embarrassed if that was mine.

I genuinely believe that the game itself will never be released unless someone else releases it, whoever that is. Either he will continue to grift what little supporters remain of his for at least the next five years while he promises to get the game out at some point (yes, some of his supporters are still gullible), or he'll pawn YanSim off as an IP on some shitty game studio.

I can't see him releasing the game in the next five years, and probably even longer than that. I may be wildly optimistic, but it really seems to me that he's gonna keep bilking his dwindling fanbase out of money until he gives up or hands over Yandere Simulator to someone else.

(...or, you know, flames out, gets arrested, loses all his supporters and fucks off the Internet forever, all of which don't seem that likely and the last one especially so.)

How is it any different from who Alex had been before the YS?

Potential, opportunity and perception. Its one thing to be young, and have done nothing, bad or good. Blank slate to work from. The Alex of that time had a no prestige boring job off the back of a basic education for the field, and was just a standard issue nerdy kid with some cringe teen years. He had all the opportunity and ability to change that, and no real baggage that'd stop him from doing whatever he set out to do.

But now he's on the wrong side of his 30's, riding a failing project into the dirt. He's consistently refused to learn, adapt or change and has all but guaranteed that he has no potential for a future in the industry - He's too stubborn to produce a consumer oriented product, too lost in his fantasies of what he wants his products to be even against all odds. His behavior and actions both in his work and outside his work have been so poor, toxic or even dancing towards criminal that his name is basically ash in the industry. All but the worst of scam projects would refuse to touch him with a ten foot pole at this point, so his entire opportunity space in the industry is just gone. And his wider perception in the industry is that of a failure, a clown and a laughing stock. He's built the kind of reputation that will immediately stain any potential change he could make in his life or his work. If he were to announce a new project, people would immediately assume it'll be a coomer failure that'd take another decade, and all conversation on it will be about the negatives, the failures and how everything could go wrong.

If Alex were to change tracks, pick up a chemistry book, and develop the cure to cancer, the first thing people would ask him on stage as he presents the commercial form of the cure to the world would be "How many pairs of high schooler panties is it going to cost"

Isn't he 40 or something? That would make it even more depressing, in a sense - to waste his life away like that for ten freaking years without something to be proud of or impressed by.

Okay, I double checked and he's 35, which funnily enough means he could run for president. Maybe in 10 or 20 years I'll write-in his name just for fun, although I don't trust the man with actual power one bit.

You know, when he said "I'm going to see a giant hole in my life where nothing happened, except for Yandere Simulator", I didn't think he was kidding or anything, but it was certainly prophetic.

Em, no, since one of the first things Alex has been doing on the internet was chasing minors while he was getting further and further from that age. Not to mention his fantasies about having a sex slave.

And the first "notable" thing that he did was that fucking Evangelion and RahXephon comparison gallery, which people laughed at even back then.

By God I am tired of these "what if...". People were critical of YS and its code even back in 2015, the problem was that its fans were louder. It's one thing seeing buggy game and saying "well, it has potential" and completely different one when one sees Student script's noodle abyss, since it is obvious that the person behind it is clinically unable to learn, mentally ill and/or retarded.
 
I think both statements are right - Alex was always destined to be a failure and now he pretty much IS the failure with his reputation so deep down the toilet, no matter what he's gonna do, he'll fail miserably.
I also liked one of the critical videos of him where an OP said Alex likes to be The Gamedev more than he actually tries to develop a game. He liked all the fame and popularity, his ego was flattered at all this attention and praise, that was the main thing he needed even more than money (that too, though.)
Truly a fascinating story.

Can you link that one, please? That's exactly what I was telling here for a long time. Alex's blogposts/dev videos are basically his 4 chan posts from the 2014 on steroids - praise fishing hidden behind empty promises and gamedev LARPing.
 
Heh, about a decade ago he was insisting he'd never do that and a small amount of his then-current batch of fans seethed at him for being homophobic. This game's been in development so long that the entire social context of his teenage fans has shifted significantly. Speaking of sign-of-the-times,
After satisfying my curiosity by implementing the gender-swap feature, I shifted my attention to implementing the next 202X rival, Amai. I’m now focusing on her exclusively, and not working on anything unrelated to implementing her.
I'm pretty sure when he started the project the setting was "201X". I wonder if in another ten years he'll be putting out a post talking about implementing the next 203X rival.

I suppose the question would be, once he "released" Yandere Simulator, what would he do? He's never going to have another video game idea that will generate as much buzz as this game did, so his patreon will dry up - no money, and no stream of attention. But the nature of the game, the crappiness of his coding and how unprofessionally he's acted (especially with TinyBuild) pretty much guarantees he wouldn't be getting a job in the gaming industry. He'd have to get a crappy entry level job somewhere as he's effectively got no employment history.
He's got a lot of incentive to never release it fully. He seems to have managed to set up a pipeline where the fans get exhausted by him but there's always a new generation of edgy tweens to replace them. I guess the only change is if this drags on long enough that the game becomes too recognisably dated, or there's a significant enough shift in the video game landscape that the style of gameplay becomes unpopular among young people (that could happen - Yandere Simulator is firmly a PC game, but a lot of younger people are shifting over to mobile/tablet gaming).
 
By God I am tired of these "what if...".
The only "what if..." I accept is contemplating whether MikeZ not fucking Lunar Scythe into the dirt would've changed anything. Maybe he'd still have overscoped even that, though since there already was a demo (!) there was a possibility of that releasing. I wonder what an Alex with no or "mostly negative" reviews on Steam would've looked like.

He's 40 years old? Perfect age to turn transbian and get some pity sympathy points. Alex, if you're reading this, please take my advice. it would be so fucking funny
Do you REALLY want that?
