I just dont get all the patrons. I would understand if this would be an investment and money would potentially came back from sales or something. But providing money to someone for whole 2 years without anything back is just out of my mind. I get that you could compare it to MMORPGs but that is different because you pay for hours of continual play. I get you can pay monthly/annually for other entertainment like Netflix/HBO/Prime, however you specifically know what you pay for and you get it. Could anyone explain this to me, please?
The comfort of knowing that something you might enjoy somewhere down the line is going to see the light of day is sometimes attractive enough for some people to drop a buck or two. Think of it like a Health Insurance Fee, you might subscribe to it for years and not ever need it. But it's comforting knowing that whenever something does happen, you're covered.

I'm lost on how this scene trailer has so many 5 star reviews calling it a demo when there are like 3 meaningful choices that lead nowhere and are followed by a compilation of clips that should have been in an actual demo

*Opens door and thinks outloud*
"Let me guess... Still no joy huh?"

I didn't want to make a post about it, but my fingers were itching so badly....
Anyway... with his recent "quick post" he informs his patreons about the way he will "update" them on the progress of the so called "game".... Yep, he is still my role model on milking people.

I' ll risk an educated guess and say that he will probably make some kind of release (any release) as soon as his patreons reach the lucky number of 220 give or take 10.

*Closes door and thinks, I' ll come back around September to check on the patreon count, cause I am pretty sure that by then he will still making plans on how to update his patreons for the game they 've been milk... ahem paying for*

This business model has potential for hollywood as well.

The movie version of this. Production will take 3 years and when people pay for their tickets they will sit in theater watching all his excuses and explanations on screen for 1.5 hours and the credits will roll and a cliffhanger for part 2 "the real movie" coming soon.........donations help.
