Don't you feel people who were interested in supporting, would be doing that by following the OP link, without any preaching from fellow posters on a pirate forum?Completely disagree.
I enjoy the community here (across F95) because I enjoy these games and it’s one of the most active places to discuss them. You also get access to mods and walkthroughs and help from other players. I’ve enjoyed being able to spend hours speculating on the future of the game here.
That said what better place to suggest people support his Patreon than the most active place for it‘s piracy. You have hundreds, perhaps thousands of people downloading the game, claiming to enjoy it, claiming it’s one of the best. Why wouldn’t you pay for something you enjoy or at least contribute to their being more of it?
And there are plenty of answers to your question. From the simplest "I don't like paying for things" to more complex like being wary of a dev's track record, not liking the Patreon model, or even Patreon itself. Just to name a few.
