This entire thread the last few weeks is exactly why people are leaving his patreon lmao. imagine thinking you're immune from criticism just because you make a porn game.
I'm pretty hesitant to post in this thread anymore just because I'm sick and tired of my posts being deleted, but I guess here goes nothing:
I'm mainly just interested in whether that's actually the case or not (ignoring for the moment that the bulk of his income is from Subscribestar rather than Patreon) and went to check for myself. Now, as I discovered earlier this month and talked about here in a post that got vacuumed up by whichever mod periodically cleans this thread, apparently there is a verifiable pattern of pledges on Patreon dropping sharply on the first of every month for some reason, so to actually prove or disprove whether his Patreon is doing worse this month than last one, I suggest we compare dates exactly one month apart; in this case, September 15th and October 15th.
This data suggests that Bones is actually doing slightly better on Patreon than he did before, not worse. I would check Subscribestar as well, but I don't have access to analytics from there. Bones seems to still be riding the high of 0.19.
As for thinking that he's immune to criticism... it's easy for him to think that when he deliberately isolates himself from anyone who criticizes him (for instance, ignoring this thread and banning critics from his Discord) and is rewarded with both monetary support and vocal appreciation and encouragement from his more fanatic fans; people who seem convinced that "the longer we wait, the better it gets."
He does good work, when he works, but he's incredibly lazy. Since he gets paid regardless, I expect the game might be completed by sometime in 2030. It'd be nice if we had a update timeline, so it'd be a lot easier to spot these dairy farmers.

I am hoping for someone or a group to make a fan mod, cause damn is it sad to have them just make a new excuse per month to not have any work, or to then release some half-assed work. His super fans are acting like the longer you wait the better. na dude when this guy is sitting pretty with the monthly income he needs to be pumping out better work. So many other people are solo working, and producing great work 3 times his speed on updates.
