Dude!
He is working on renderings of DOL and AWAW versions! This has already increased the production time of the update! I'm not talking about post-processing and animation!
Put Sophia's model in some environment, naked or in some kind of underwear, putting a light into this scene and hitting render, doesn't take much time - especially for an experienced artist like LP!
You probably forgot that in addition to the DOL version, he is doing a remake of old images!
So making a simple kalage is not difficult!

Everybody here so busy talking about how much they hate L&P's preview policy (which is admittedly unusual)...
Why the heck is nobody talking about story?
I don't know about anyone else but that's the thing that keeps me coming back to this game.
The magazine cover is hella' interesting, it's more risqué than I would expect from Sophia and the cover text does point to even sexier pictures inside - given the assumption that the magazine (and presumably the photo-shoot behind it) comes from a discussion about how she lost her virginity.
Was Sophia's first time with some older photographer guy who took advantage of her? It could definitely inform her somewhat frigid nature when we meet her at the start of the game.
Liam's gambling problem was first mentioned on Day One, just to setup the Morello storyline coming later.
You know what else was mentioned early on? Sophia forbidding Ellie from taking any kind of modelling work until she's finished her schooling, we may soon (in like 7 weeks) find out that Sophia made that judgement from personal experience.
On top of that - this sets up a much different picture to how I had been imagining Sophia's 'First-Time' story turning out.
I had assumed it would be a high-school fling in her teenage bedroom; parents away, invites the cool guy from class over to 'study', he's charming and respectful at first then turns coercive and mean when she starts backing out (like a late 90's/early-2000's version of Aiden) and that becomes the negative formative experience that sets her up to become the somewhat frigid woman we meet later.
Anyone else wanna offer some speculation about what story progression we'll see in this update?

If you like this game, it's natural to sponsor it.
But people want to say that there is a problem with the way this game operates, but if people have to pay, when will the developer make a loss and when will he correct the mistake?
Money's coming anyway...
The reason why the number of postings increases when a teaser is shared is because people waited for something to discuss.
same word but not the same word.
Even if you share only text without images, the number of postings will increase
actually it was
I keep talking, but there's no need to get mad because the teaser
he just need to provide sponsors with a special image, not a teaser.
And the sponsor average for this game is $3
He would be very hard without this forum
He should not try to find a way to stop publicity.
He should try to find a way to publicity.
One of those ways is a teaser.
soon we will find out that Sophia did porn when she was young, one or two movies, no biggie
His behavior is rude! When you want something, then ask nicely. If someone respects you, then he will fulfill your request.
Imagine this - you are his supporter from the beggining of the game until now. And you are pay for this 35-36 dollars per month (excl. VAT). Six years, 72 months... And he forbids you and ban you, if you not doing what he said?!!! WTF....

My theory is he took a picture of Sophias vagina and now he is sending it to his friends
I agree that some of his language is a bit overboard with the rats and everything. A content creator insulting anybody, yet alone a subscriber seems out of this world.
I would prefer he didn't do that. It would just increase the already high development time. If he views his teasers as rewards for high tier patrons and not publicity it's his prerogative.
The 3$ average makes sense to me. As you get the game even for the 1$ tier, I don't see why anyone would pay more, considering his development speed.
No, it is not up to me! It's up to me how I use my benefits of support this creator, but if I want to share the teaser and then get a ban, then where is my decision? I am supporting StopeArt, but he never forbade me.
In this case L&P must say - for 50 dollars you will recieved this, that and several prohibitions. And if you don't want to be a good boy - ban! WTF again....!!!???

A promise is a promise, even if it is not legally binding.
We see numerous types of sponsorships
From hospital treatment costs to neighbors in need
Get college funding
When they are caught lying, they apologize to their sponsors, delete their channels and close their accounts.
It is fraudulent to say that developers do not have to keep the service they promised to provide to their sponsors.
And although I do not know Partron's policy, sponsorship funds that exceed a certain level are legally binding.
How would you feel if someone told you that you paid for food but they would not serve it?
Companies that sell subscription services, if than don't provide a subscription services, consumers get refunds. any company

You said there would be many high level sponsors.
And what idiot would consider a teaser a privilege?
Don't know what a teaser is?
Or do you not know what privilege is?

I didn't read the ToS for Patreon but I imagine that you get whatever rewards your tier includes as long as you pay/are subscribed. If L&P would decide to block/ban (I have no idea how that is accomplished) someone, that would mean that they would not receive further money for them and, as soon as the period for which they already payed expires, they would loose all access. I think he could also refund the money for the last payment period and deny access immediately, again, it really depends on the ToS.
I don't know what promises L&P made that would bind him, unlike a contract with a service provider where the service in question is extremely well defined in the contract.
- Access to the most exclusive teasers and animation previews 2 days after 1st release
This is taken from his patreon page for 30$ tier. It's clear that he considers this one of the attractions of that tier.
Anyone can do what they want with their money, if they consider whatever the perks of the 30$ tier (including the teasers) are worth the extra bucks, it's their right.
It's clear that for L&P teasers serve a different purpose, as can be seen above, they are "exclusive" and meant as a reward.
I think you don't know what privilege means.
Let me help you with the definition:
"a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group."
I would say the 30$ tier is a particular group and the teasers are an advantage that they would get, compared to other people that don't. If you don't think that is an advantage, why are so many people so desperate to see them as soon as they appear?
Again, I am not defending L&P in particular nor do I condone his way of doing things. This is just something that applies to any and every content creator out there.
