This practice of releasing a game later to "normal" paying players in order to make some higher priced packages more interesting is one of the biggest misdevelopments in the gaming industry in general (not just Patreon games). It builds on the fear of missing out and is a really sleazy approach. It really annoys me about Patreon games in particular, because it completely distorts the idea that everyone who supports a game to the best of their ability should be taken equally seriously. I think punishing people with less money who are still willing to give is pathetic. L&P is really going to extremes with their "Legend Vet", considering that until recently it would have been the equivalent of a AAA game every month. The whole thing is just sick.

Well, I've made it a rule to only support the smaller games here. Anything that has a good approach and where you can see that the developer isn't just taking people for a ride. The problem is that even the smaller developers often change their attitude as they get bigger. That's why I just gave up my last support game on patreon, because I just can't take the concept seriously anymore. There is a lack of control (e.g. actual milestones). Why should I put trust in a developer when much of the projects are going to get screwed up anyway?
I think you are understanding this concept wrongly. Especially for outside Patreon but I think it applies to Patreon as well.
This isn't meant to punish anyone, it's meant to reward the people that pay more. Just like some AAA games have early release. There has to be something to incentivize people to pay more. If all tiers release on the same day, it means the only difference will be to let the higher ones have input or produce extra renders and stuff just for them. This would mean more workload on L&P, which would mean later release dates.
In Fashion Business for example high payers get the update earlier, a higher quality (1080p instead of 720p) and more content in the game. That is a big difference one could maybe complain about.




In 2 weeks it will cost only 2 euros to buy it from his website… people are impatient to get it asap and they start getting impatient… For people living in EU or USA this is peanuts…

Be patient and relax ;)
I never understood the impatience. We already waited so many months, what do a few days matter? Also, if you get the update later for this one, you wait a shorter time for the next update.

The gallery is bugged, in the story line you could go back a little and then move forward to make that decision or look to see if you have a slightly earlier save and load that one (assuming you are on the right path and can go to that event).
you can still click on it. It is somewhere there i had to click multiple times on different spots but then it opens the scene in the gallery mode.

Do you mind atleast sharing the update. Looks like people dont want to share afterall
Can you explain me, why you feel so special and someone who paid for something has to share it with you? May be the guy dont like people like you, and dont like to share anything with you at all?
