U-huh, filthy piretes ruining it all? Really?
Eh, Patreon is voluntarily donations and Mirthal aren't owe them anything. When you want to buy the game you go to the store, not to some scammer cesspool where nothing is guaranteed (except lack of spicy stuff).
More like people being people. Would be hypocritical to blame pirates being on pirate site. It's just a fact that he will lose some sales by releasing early on Patreon and Itch, and any sane person would care more about money than about feelings of some dumb fucks who supported him for years
Really? Well...Nope.
Wordplay. Technically - yes, you pay to support. But I really doubt anyone will be happy to pay a hefty sum just to read "you know, thank you and all that, go buy on steam now." If he's going to pull that joke, well good luck with keeping his patrons then.
It seems strange. Like how can he be out of the loop on this?
What you linked can neither confirm nor deny it. Nothing about price parity.
my understanding is that the game isn't released yet but when it does a kind soul still has to post it here. So could be a while. I'll be checking back in a week.
This only applies to sells of STEAM KEYS. Not to direct download on a Patreon.You must be registered to see the links
And there some rules about keys:

So yeah Valve is a good guy, but you don't want to mess with them and trying to scam them or Steam users, that one they state clearly. Even big publishers like EA or Ubisoft offer similar prices and deals for their games on Steam, because they know they will be kicked out for not playing nicely.
So yeah if you offer your game "for free" to 5$ Patrons, but it's sold for like 10$ on Steam you are in a trouble. And I doubt it matters how long people paid said price and how much they was milked before
If half of what is on this thread is true, then should be after december 1st so it catches the next patreon month billing cycle
Thank goodness this is the f95 thread, whose last 3 pages have been pile upon pile of utter bullshit
Ok that is the answer then. If he post same thing on patreon then it makes sense, nobody is complaining there - coz it is his desicion, not some kind of random thing.
Valve is one of many stores and if their rules clearly says "keys", then it would be hard to use it another way in the court.
No I heard it more than once. What's odd is that it surprised the dev himself, while he even has experianced publisher. But is quite common. Maybe you don't hear about it very often because usually checks go way faster. But here in the case ofporn game they must check the content more thoroughly. You know - if there happen to be a 300 y.o. goddes with tiny titty and frail frame - the world may collapse coz of some shiny moral knights start to explode with unnatural force. So more checks needed.
Not sure, i've played a bunch of new released hentai/porn games in steam and the dates that are posted for launch ALWAYS go through, no delays, no devs complaining about check delays. So i have no idea what this is about
"I'm afraid I will have to give this game a more...thorough check," he said while unzipping his pants. That's how I imagine evaluation of porn game now. The more they can fap to it, the longer it stays in evaluation limbo.
Thought I answered this a few days ago, but my post history says otherwise.
