This is from the end of AL.

Overall, he's set his mind about what he wants and how he wants it.
So even if not everyone is a fan of his echo-chamber Discrod and so on, I think he couldn't care less.
He's doing what he wants to do.

We can only judge, hate, enjoy or love it.

So overall, I respect what he does. I don't have to agree with him on all fronts to enjoy this game.
And truth be told, I'm personally not a fan of internet drama. Whatever story he wants to tell, I'll play it, even if it finishes in 2026. It's just a damn game to pass the time, packaged in Netflix format to binge once/twice a year.
At the end of the day, not gonna get triggered by a game that costs me spare change, which is made by 1 person.

Not that I'm defending him, since I don't agree with all he does.
I simply don't care/get triggered by anything around the game.

so the original design had the Christmas tree and the tricycle in the blood... what a forward-thinking artist...

I'm still wondering what scene MUST be added to Bella's run, the opening animation? the cuddling in the library? the dance with James/MC? the twerking?

Thats the thing, go look at his early patreon posts, or even here. He would never in a million years post such a message before he made it.

Maybe he decided to add flashback Bella afterwards? I'm not gonna question what were the 40+ animations he added that he felt necessary because the episode felt incomplete, because it's almost entirely a big free roam + minigames.

Honestly this episode wasn't worth the 9.5-10 month wait for it. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I'm sure DPC is doing well for himself for an AVN author, but it's not like these guys have major publishers behind them. AVNs are not exactly mainstream. He probably makes enough to quit his day job, reinvest into his work and live comfortably, which is exceptionally rare for an AVN dev to be able to do. But I doubt he'll be buying yachts or exclusive beachfront properties anytime soon.

I don't get the hate either. Just...don't play the game if don't like the direction it is going or the time it takes him to make it?! Most of these games that have reached the scope and length of BaD just get abandoned at some point anyway. And developer taking a long time for the next meaningful content patch? That is just par for the course with these kind of games. That happens with pretty much every single one of these games.

About him building himself an echo chamber of praise...I can understand that, I think. It can be bad thing and lead to bad decisions, but since he is only developing a game and not ruling a country, it would be something that would mainly harm himself. I can also understand not wanting to cope with tons of whining and criticism, because that can also be very unhealthy mentally and a lot of the criticism is just mindless blahblah from people that have no idea what they are talking about. And handling that in such a way, that only the constructive potentially helpful criticism is left, is difficult.

It's his full-time job, he has 5 rigs with dual 3090's for rendering and in the end he gets outworked by other devs that I'm not going to mention that work with 1x3090 and drop their updates in 1 month less time. :WaitWhat:

He might be not the most nice person on earth but i honestly never saw any dev putting so much content by his dev time

Hate is, also like love or anger a feeling everyone has inside. Some turn their feelings into useful skills, some into more destroying. I don't get why people hate someone even if they don't know the person themself, only by the stuff they heard about the person.

If it takes months to get a new Ep, i will wait and play other games meanwhile (new and old ones, even such playing in a secret room ...), so no time to hate a developer for the times he takes nor the amount of money he makes.

Yeah, hate should be reserved for people that commit a great injustice, especially against one personally or a loved one and not thrown at some random dude making silly porn games at the internet...in my opinion at least.

Yes, the AVN genre is unfortunately, like sex in video games, a taboo for the gaming industry. Very few developers allow themselves to show adult content, and then it will be light erotica. The gaming press is also bypassing this genre (but I think this is for the best, looking at what gaming journalism has become). Not one publisher will take on AVN, so the developers do everything alone, or in a small team.
And they are definitely not millionaires, do not forget that the patreon takes interest, plus taxes, plus the cost of buying music, computer hardware, electricity, and many more models in DAZ 3D are paid.
As with any business, net income is not as big as operating income.

Maybe he wants to be an millionaire himself but is lack of any useful skills? So he is envious cause someone made it by himself.
