1. Patreon flat-out told him they wanted his game gone. Modding it wouldn't work.
2. DS's belief is that trying to host BB anywhere while still trying to have a Patreon for Glamour will likely lead to him being banned from Patreon. I suspect he's right.
3. What's he going to sell the game for? The quirk of the patreon system is that people will pay far more to support a game than buy it outright. While people will pay $40/month or more in some cases for the promise of more incest content, those same people may balk at $30 for a stand-alone game.
4. DS always wanted to move on to Glamour in the first place. It's the safer alternative. Will it make as much money? Probably not. But I don't think BB being moved to another site will make as much money as it once did, either.
Maybe that has more to do with the scummy blackmail approach than anything to do with Incest.
And since none of us but DS have seen these conversations he has had with them it is very possible he is simply misreading what they are saying to him...I can't say.
Maybe. I doubt it's so simple.we can only wait for further actions of Patreon.
Sure they might be less popular. But less popular game is better than non-existing game.
He can't mod BB. Patreon strictly forbidden anything related to BB on their site. He could remove whole content and leave just title and it wouldn't be allowed as well. They want to remove BB. Paypal has alternatives but paypal has no working alternative. You really believe huge number of people will even find his site not to say use CCBill? Paypal is as strong as Google and people won't use different sites connected to their bank accounts without a great reason. And porn isn't one for most. He could try such a thing ofc but if it doesn't work he'll work everything. In case of Glamour which was being made for quite some time he can easily expect to remain on a market. Even if he will lose half of his patrons he will still be bigger than most devs.
Funny how MotH had it's page taken down and game reviewed yet he managed to get it all restored by making a mod to his game!
Me personally I don't care if it continues or not....
But to suggest that it isn't fixable/moddable to meet their policy is just lazy or ignorant.
He could easily mod it and rename it and reupload under a new name if he really wanted to continue it.
My suspicion is he really wants to dump it because he is tired of it and this is just a decent justification for moving on to Glamour. And some here seem to be fine if he does that so why not just do that and end this game?
MONEY! That is why!
If what you and Corambis say is true then there is no more money to be made on Patreon.
That means either going on his own and creating his own pay site (Easy to do ask any stripper they all have one!) or simply make Glamour and hope Patreon doesn't think that too is too creepy for them to have on their system.
Meanwhile I will still play the game that got closed down on Patreon, Modded by the developer and restored to all it's Patreon glory.
