This is getting ridiculous there is so much woe is me chest beating.

@DarkSilver was giving a choice by Patreon, granted it wasn't a nice choice but it was a choice.

You can choose to support him or not, I never really cared about the incest value of the game and just played it as a dating sim.

I am going to point a couple of things out, relationships with step siblings/ parents is still incest in US law in certain states the same as with foster parents, it is like having a relationship with a teacher it is considered an abuse of power.

Patreon is a business they have every right to say what is allowed on their page (even if I don't agree with it) it is not fascism, if your supermarket stops selling your favourite things you have a choice stop using the supermarket or 'suck it up buttercup' as you are one person and they don't care about you.

For the people that say Paypal doesn't allow porn, have you been on vixen, mofos or Naughty America lately all those sites you can now pay with paypal.

I am not sure if DS did not calculate with the end of BB.
Why should just not his game be taken under review by Patreon? He should have known better! All other incest games (DMD, DOD, and so on)... That should have told him something. He had time to alleviate this problem. He had time to find a solution. But he does not have?! Why?

Everyone wants a continuation of BB. However, he denies almost all payment options offered to him. He hold fast onto Patreon and is under Patreons thumb with all their zero tolerance to almost all sexual content. What the hell?


One refresher:


- We have zero tolerance when it comes to the glorification of sexual violence which includes bestiality, rape, and child exploitation (i.e., sexualized depiction of minors). This is true for illustrated, animated, or any other type of content.


- We also do not allow other fringe sexual fetish content, such as incest, necrophilia, or fetish content that is hard to distinguish from non-consensual sex.


What is the porn-content of "Glamour"?

Sex between man and woman? Lesbian sex? Uhh..how exciting?!
Unbelievable!

Why don´t DS and his team adopt a two-pronged strategy? On Patreon "Glamour" and on his own platform "BB". For a price of one. As DS declares sometime. But no. BB will frozen 0.13 after next (last) release. I guess DS has no more fun with BB. But i doubt that "Glamour" is also successfully as BB. There is no tabu, just ordinary sex. But put me right! I´m waiting for.

0.13 will be released without updater, with decrypted texts and images
it should make modders life much much better
Today is January 27, one year anniversary of Big Brother on Patreon. We had very productive year, our game has earned a lot of followers and we had a lot of plans for it in the future. But, unfortunately, Patreon has decided it doesn't want incest content on their website anymore. First we couldn't mention it in the description, then we couldn't have any adult content on our page for non-subscribers and now our game is banned altogether. And we can't cut out incest out of the game to unlock our page either, so here's what's going to happen in the near future:
1. We're still going to finish 0.13. We won't get any money for it and it's going to be free (you'll find it on the torrent sites, there will be links on discord and telegram, etc.). 0.13 is going to be released on time because a lot of players are waiting for it.
2. Big Brother is going to be frozen and 0.13 is going to be considered a final version of the game for now. We may continue BB development if we find an alternative to Patreon.
3. Our Patreon page is going to be completely reworked and restarted without Big Brother.
4. Our team is going to start working on our new project Glamour full time. You'll know more about it on our new updated Patreon page.
5. We're going to continue giving you regular updates. New screenshots, gameplay mechanics description, interface, etc. We love making adult games and we're going to continue making them, regardless of the temporary setbacks. Stay tuned!
"
Well after 0.13 version RIP BB, they plan to make another game call "Glamour"
As will my support. I didn't have any interest in Glamour when it first came out, and based on what I've seen and read so far in discord, I still don't. As others have said in this forum and elsewhere, when DS was first suspended, many people gave him suggestions for continuing the game elsewhere, and as far as I can tell he did nothing. I, for one, told him in a post and PM that he needed to make a plan B as it wasn't over, and that Patreon was adding more employees just for reviewing content alone. And again, he did nothing. Other games (like DMD) at least tried to start a website elsewhere for the game, which is why I'll continue to support that creator. I do wish DS well in his future game, but after I get this last BB update, that's it for me.

(Like I have said earlier, in real life no employer cant forbid you to get 2nd part-time job to earn more money. )
No, they absolutely can.
For starters they can claim your 2nd job infringes with your main job and fire you for that. Or say you drug the company name through the mud. And a dozen other things.
Secondly, some jobs have a special provision that you would work for them only. Do you think that people working in sensitive jobs like with important court cases, in industrial research, in important pharmaceutical research, in military facilities etc can just get another job and be paid by others?

Exactly, I have clauses in my contract preventing me to work for any competition companies. If I leave for a non-competition company, they take all my notes and creations during my contract with them as intellectual property. If I leave for competition, I have to pay them a big indemnity... as I receive more every month just that anything like this doesn't happen. It depends on your contract.

I would be surprised if Patreon doesn't have any kind of clauses against you taking your project from them and going for competition if they don't allow it. (which doesn't seem to be the problem here as Patreon want DS to stop BB)

The dummy solution seems to me the better solution for all parts, DS has a problem, even if he just wants to go "Glamour" only route, he knows some (probably many) won't follow him as let's face it, he isn't one of the best payed adult creators by giving us "vanilla sex", the fetishes sell!
If he goes the "dummy" route, all of his current patreons will move with him anywhere he wants, I don't even mind upgrading my pay just to see this happens... But I want BB not glamour. If it turns out glamour is that much better than all the competition, well then he can start to box BB & give full attention to Glamour.
My 2 cents. Kira forever!!!! ;)

why not use ccbill or one of the other payment methods the porn industry uses, start his own site, I'm sure he has the e-mail addresses of all his patreon followers.
If every developer did the same patreon would lose a hell of a lot of money

Those who attack DS for not taking any actions should remember that he at least was developing Glamour for quite some time. Thanks to that he's not in such a deep shit as Dots. He seems to know he has no alternatives than Patreon and he's at least prepared to keep his page opened with some quality game. Look at Dots - he has to create new game from scratch, it has to have amazing quality to gain people's attention, he wants to keep DMD alive outside of Patreon which will make him develop 2 games at the same time which means at least 2 months for each update. That really unhealthy for both games and sooner or later something will be ditched or cutted off. Not to say about all other devs like Sin who really think they won't be banned at some point. Adapt or die is Patreon's policy and devs should remember that.

Because it's more easy to drop the project and to make new one. Shame he will stop update BB and make new shitty normal porn simulator game.
Incest ftw. <3

Like people have said. Patreon is the Facebook of crowdfunding at the moment. As it is NSFW content is only about a quarter of Patreons revenue and they really dont seem to care that much to lose it since theres not much competition at the moment. If there was any serious contenders right now Im sure Patreon would lighten up since no business in their right mind would risk a quarter of their revenue. Now seems like a good time for anyone given the climate over a lot of content to start their own website.

Sin was/is better off right now than DS. His page and game complies to their TOS. He cant ( of course it might not matter for patreon) be held accountable for a fan made patch that he has no connection to. On top of all this he too has another game set up once DoD comes to an end. Like you said, unless DoD gets banned I wouldnt be too worried.

In my opinion Sin and other clearly incest devs are in the same position Dots was. If he has another project prepared that's great. But I wouldn't be optimistic about DoD and other games. People were saying same things about BB cuz it took some time for Patreon to act. Preparing another, high quality games seems to be the best idea for now.

Bullshit. Comparing a massive work of fiction as ASoIaF to a porn game is beyond laughable. The incest, the violence, the death in Martin's work is just a tool in painting a much bigger picture. No one reads 700 pages long book, because somewhere in there is a page long scene where Jaime bones his sister. Don't be ridiculous.
Help me understand.

How is the use of real people, i.e. actors, creating an on screen, visual representation of something from a book, more tame than CGI representations of something a game developer imagined and placed in a game? I agree 100% that readers of George R.R. Martin's works do not pick up his lengthy novels just to read about incest, rape, etc. but, I can guarantee there are people that watched the HBO series for exactly that reason. While I also agree the Martin's use of those baser human actions are used to fuel the subplots and character development, the same could be said for some of the better game developments we have here.

I'm not certain I entirely agree with your statement, but that is my opinion I guess.

But again DS did almost nothing to prepare for it. DMD was dumb for not changing the title and then explaining how to restore the banned content on patreon. Thats not very subtle at all.

Without anymore incest theme story it will be not success like BB and DS will lose patreons for this mistake, the new "best idea it will be a worse one" only because he decide to drop a good project and dissapoint patreons.
