What he's trying to do, considering his patreon page and overall behaviour - to create elitist vibe around his project. I mean, just look at the description of lowest level actual
supporter of his work:
- Access to the news feed on Patreon.
- Access to the DIKs-only room on the DrPinkCake Discord server.
- DIK pledge status on the DrPinkCake Discord server.
- My sincere thanks to you!
It's like "ait, worthless maggot (maggots actually a higher title, my bad), let it be so, you can read what's goin on from now, go fucking hang out at special bum-room for others like you. What? Wanna play my game for that pathetic 1$? Are you fucking crazy?!"
Moving on, for 5 bucks you can check the update after 2 weeks, when all the big guys already long ago nutted themselves and discussed all the details. Although fuck knows what's goin on there, maybe same sweet cospiracy theories for months after each update? Anyway, at this level creator is suggests you to discuss it in the same room with 1$ bums in order to advertise them new hot stuff enough for the raise.
The following levels are starting to look decent (althogh polls only at 10 and walkthrough at 15 as you guys know worth mentioning) and I'm not going further with impressions but I beleive it's quite clear that hiding even basic info fits into the overall pattern perfectly. So, it's not insane at all and it's truly his business, however dunno about you guys, but personally I cannot respect this greedy corpo-style approach. No way.
Besides, it's works while he's on the edge (yeah, I'm almost convinced now) but if some let's say small teams will start outplay him on his own field all this attitude would backfire big time. With all that steam release tendency now I'd say it's quite possible.
