I know many people like this VN, i know this is the dev’s creation so he can do whatever he want with it, and i know he need money for his own VN
but $30 a month for a build every 2 months is wild, like.. that’s more than Photoshop’s subscription
		
		
	 
	
		
	
	
		
		
			my man its 5 dollars for 20 days earlier , 10 dollars for 25 days earlier and lastly 30 dollars for a month earlier  ( this compare to public build which is free after a month release )... pay extra to get the game sooner than 10 days is optional and acceptable ..
Overall you get the game at 20 25 and 30 according to your patreon member ...
		
		
	 
Unfortunately that's the world we are living in, they are doing this because they can get away with it.
"Pay for Early Access" is a reasonable and fair exchange between dev and audience.
"Pay for a finished Product" is also the most fair exchange.
BUT the line is broken when they start to PAY-wall contents in updates, for an unfinished game, with no Finish line planned.
When the dev start to nickel and dime updates, they will put more stuff behind pay-wall, they will piecemeal the paid contents (like 1 month worth of update split into 2, etc.)
Even worse with the "Pay to Win Vote" that people who pay more money can directly decide how the game is made:
There are so many thing wrong with this practice I don't even want to start
Never saw a game with this type of vote has any positive impact on the game, it always makes the game worse.
This game had a great start, but It's a shame that's the direction they are taking.
From years of gaming it never changes: 
Money always corrupts, when "Making money" is the goal, not the means.
