He was humble until he became famous (within this limited circle). And with fame came a lot of unpleasant attention from little whiny cunts that felt he owed them something. Of course there are heaps and heaps of people enjoying his game, singing its praises and also thousands are supporting him financially.My final word on this thing is. It is sad how money changes people. Going from a humble guy that is just happy that people support his game and asking for donations to finish it on page 1 of this forum to charging these insane amounts of money for things. Anyway it is what it is.
But what changes you is a barrage of hate from cunts. When you're not famous, you don't deal with hate from cunts all the time, it's the benefit of being unknown. But when you're famous, there's good and bad, and both are magnified like a motherfucker.
Regarding the amounts he's charging. Nobody is forcing anybody to pay anything for anything. All devs have tiers with benefits for those who wanna pay the crazy subscriptions. DPC'd have to be an idiot if he didn't provide an option for mad cunts to fork out their thousands if they wanted to.
But then whiny cunts who never paid a dime somehow feel they are owed the high tier benefits because, I dunno, their mommy said so...
Maybe there's an opening for an entrepreneur to build a platform that work better than Patreon. One that rewards loyalty and investment, not one that just encourages developers to milk shit.this more or less applied to me. i was a low tier supporter ($5 a month) since right after AL was put up on this site, and stayed that way for many years. until we got to a super severe dry spell here and i upped it to $40 a month in order to post the preview pictures here so we had something to talk about and think about.
there wasnt really any reason if i basically supported him from the early days and had already paid him more than enough to buy the game at full price a few times over, that i shouldnt be allowed access to the stuff at the $40 dollar tier just for being a loyal supporter for many years. it's a rigged game and the scales are heavily weighted towards greed, as opposed to rewarding loyal donors or just overall appearing more grateful that people like me existed and were giving him money in the first place
