WIPs that can give Bastard of Camelot a run for its money

[game_hunt3r]

CC Hill is basically the final boss of dropping interesting WIP's and forgetting about them, and then updating the most boring one six months to a year later. Now she's rewriting WLGYL's and has no drop date, but keeps posting wattpad level smut stories on patreon behind the most insane paywall in IF history. Truly the most IF author in IF history.

And don't even get me started on the fact that every choice you make always gives you the same damn answer, sigh.

every choice you make always gives you the same damn answer

There are usually three choices and all say the same thing, just rephrased.

#1 "He is so hot!"
#2 "I want him to give me babies!"
#3 "LET'S F*** HERE AND NOW!"

posting wattpad level smut stories on patreon

Even TGR author is posting smut on patreon. It's just what it is (aka what sells, and what many seem to want out of their IFs nowadays).

There are usually three choices and all say the same thing, just rephrased.

Either that, or it will be like...

Your cheating ex tries to catch your attention from across a sea of beautiful faces and you hate that you notice them first.

1.Look away.
2. You smirk at how desperate they look.
3. You glare at the bastard.
4. You turn away, heart racing.

<and the next page will be the exact same answer for every choice because it doesn't matter what you chose and your ex will corner you, and you'll be angry and pining.>

CC Hill books are basically a linear experience.

flowers for the demon king can give BoC a run for its money. It's been so long and its still not out of character making section

well you went and jinxed it

Since the rules aren't ironclad, I'm also putting Wayfarer here. What happens first? BoC getting out of the childhood arc or Wayfarer chapter 4's Patreon release (Chapter 3's public). It fails criteria 1 and 2 but boy is Wayfarer gold standard for 3.

I do know that chapter 3 of BoC would be two books long and filled with unnecessary padding and fluff (Llama decided to add a Patreon short story into the main storyline again and why is always that chapter).

Another one would be Shepherds of Haven

ill say Shepherds have its own problems but (imo) its the last game you d include here considering the criteria™

like. im spoiled by how regularly its updated (now im jinxing it...) i just got into Wayfarer but...dont think ill b able to continue...its far too slow

If I remember correctly flame is supposedly a full time writer now, but hasnt even updated his patreon since November.
My pick since some of the big ones were taken is The Thousand of Us every update I have seen for that game is like 10 minutes of content for months between updates.

Careful now, I suspect the author did know about this site and looking for leaked demos, or that we have a white knight here for the lack of leaked demos

There were two authors. Rohie was the main writer and she was the one who decided to drop the if because she felt it a burden. But now she's writing spotlight and it's crap

Hasn't been mention but The Nameless?

No update since 2022 realistically, but was still able to do streams and have patreon which is still live

White Knight or not, the demos started dropping or being locked away after Dashingdon went down because somebody shared links of this site on the Hosted Games subreddit and COG's forum for people who wanted to know where to read their old favourite demos, and a majority of people found out that there was a pirating site for the games and went wild. That's when everything started to become too mainstream for the authors to ignore and the host of cogdemos decided to create a pateron lock on their site.

But before that if you searched up a finished game, Dan's mods would always pop up in google anyway. Years ago I thought that this was just some sort of forum mocking COG and never looked at it because it looked super basic at the time as I suspect many others believed. Now the site is renown, better looking and most of the COG fanbase knows about it. So, unless the site went on lockdown, it was always going to be found out.

The death of Dashingdon was just the final nail in the coffin and alerted the entire platform about this place, and most of them can't shut up to save their lives.
