Just so that the people fully digest what's going on. Remember there was a 6 month gap between updates where he reworked some scenes and gave us the newer Mia scenes, and then there was this 8 month gap for more reworks and 2 waiting on 3rd scene. In all, that's 5 (cause I believe the Mia ones were 2 new ones iirc) new scenes in the still raising span of 14+ months. If he has a single pateron who gives 10 dollars a month, that person has given him 140 dollars for the amount of content they could spend less than 10 bucks ONCE just buying a completed game off Steam or DLSite.
I'll tell this as many times as I have to, any dev who thinks that paterons or subscribers are not paying for a product but instead simply supporting the dev so that they can work on their projects.....is either delusional or a scam artist and any supporter who thinks that is just a god damn fool. Just like with Kickstarter or other such places, they are supporting you so that you can work towards the completion of a product and/or continuation of multiple products. It's an investment, not a donation. They are clients, not fans. If you want people to pay you while you sit on your arse doing jack shit for months on end, set up a paypal donations account. If you're using pateron or subwhatever, they have all the rights to call you out on milking money. Why the hell do you think those places set up ways to get your money refunded?
Spending 1-2 years to make a game: The norm.
Spending 1-2 years for reasonably sized update: Sus.
Spending over 2 years and the game isn't even half-way done: Milking.
Spending 1-2 years for a small update: Scam.
Year 4+ and the game isn't done: Scam.
