Too true. Too true.
Reminds me of an exchange between my parents when I was relatively young, when they were arguing, and my dad had the stupidity to say "I wear the pants in this family."
My mom, a slender 5'9" woman said "Oh yeah?" and huffed into their bedroom momentarily before returning with a pair of her Jeans, throwing them at my dad, "Put those on."
My dad, who is an athletic 6'6" Looked confused at them as my mom kept yelling at him to put them on. Getting one leg barely into them, halfway up his thigh, he said, "There's no way I can get into these pants."
My mom replied, "That's right, and if you ever want to get into them again, you'll lose that attitude right now!"
I never saw that attitude from my dad again.

Hello Wolfschadow. On July 24, 2017, I paid $ 10 for lunch, but it only puts me into the group (coffee) on the site. How is it possible?

That`s called inflation!

See my response to you in the "Episode Index" thread. Basically, you must send a PM to Wolfschadowe informing him that you have pledged so he can set up your patron credentials.

I was just curious if you had a new time-table for when Episode 7 would be out for us public players? I enjoy your game, and have been waiting patiently for quite a while now. You said a bit back that it should be the beginning of July, but August starts tomorrow, and we got bubkiss. Thank you for making such a great game that we all enjoy playing.

Every time someone who hasn't donated asks he moves it up another month.

The current tentative plan is to release Episode 7 to the "early access" folks in mid- to late-August with the public release a week or so after that. Most of the episode is locked and as of last week, there were only a couple of small scenes left to finish up. There are also a couple of bugs still to be stomped but the beta is looking good and I would be very surprised if it isn't ready to go fairly soon. I have to say this new part of the game is looking great. There are some story twists and a couple of new mysteries to go with the erotic stuff.
You are right that it has been a long wait for this episode and it has been frustrating for Wolfschadowe more than anyone else. The upcoming episode is the most complicated so far and is also the largest episode of BEW ever. Once this one is out, future episodes should come out much more regularly and in a more timely manner.

Cool. Like I said, I love your game. I'd like it if I was able to donate, as "infiniteignorance" pointed out. But I have other, higher priority monthly charges to take care of. Like a car payment and a house payment. Glad to hear that this one will be so large, as it gives folks like myself something to delve into. I, for one, like it when creators take their time and release an substantial update, instead of one that extends the game play by, maybe, two minutes.
Keep up the great work, monseigneur Wolfschadowe.

I want to make sure everyone understands that he was joking about donations. BEW is and always has been free to play for everyone. While Wolfschadowe appreciates the donations from patrons and can use that money to pay skilled helpers in the development process, he has said multiple times that the game project is a hobby for him and he would still be doing it without those donations. He'd probably just be doing it without as much help.

Hmm... I kind of like this idea. Maybe a week for for patrons and a month for non-patrons who ask?
Yes, it's a joke. I'll release when it's ready, regardless of how many people ask. I appreciate the excitement and interest that leads to people wanting to ask politely about when the next episode will be available.

Question the multilingual version will also be ready for non-patrons in a month or will it still have to wait?

The localization files are dependent upon the availability of the volunteer translators.
The worst case scenario is that some of the game text will not be translated, and so will appear in English.

It will also depend on when we receive the files. Because +530 pages won't be ready in a week, that's almost for sure. So I guess most of localizations will be added in further patches after the general release date

Yeah. I got he was joking. But I was being serious. I'd love to donate if I were able to do so. Because I like Wolfschadowe's and his crew's work. Sorry. Sarcastically funny doesn't translate to text very well. LoL.

I figured you got it. I am pretty conscious that others read these thread beyond the original posters. I just wanted to make it clear for anyone who may have come a little late to the party.
