Oh I see, so criticism is only valid if you agree with it? LOL

Some seems to forget that dev aren't at your service, they do what they tend to like as any autors. They sure keep in mind what their auditors may like but that doesn't mean they have to what YOU like. Any person has their own point of view, things they like or dislike. So if you aren't completly stupid stop to critisim and complain about the devs because they don't do why you like, pass your way and find something that suit you better.

Once again the fan's of this game are saying "no one is allowed to criticize this". You're wrong, in a free forum everything is a fair target for criticism. If you don't want to hear it use the ignore function, but you have no right to tell anyone they can't post their opinion.

2 years of the same criticisms is just obsessive. Every post doesn't need to the same fruitless critique.

No I meant valid criticisms are things like spelling errors, bad grammar, grainy renders, bad lighting, bad camera angles.

I don't agree, the story is the central part of a game. And probably the most important part. And in a situation like this where the dev dramatically changed the direction of the story, just to pander for more Patreon bucks, it's going to draw very well deserved criticism.

Critiquing the story is fair game. The story is probably the weakest part of this game. It's had poor pacing since Ch2 started. Either with routes being completely forgotten for extended periods (Martin) routes being dragged out (D/Rachel) or routes being neutered (Graham/Olivia).
It's been posted several times before, but the content people complain about (sharing etc.) were planned tags since the game started. The old MrDots website laid out what the game was meant to be. The story was botched when he hired a couple writers and let them write a story that deviated from what Dots originally wanted.
And when that content actually started to get added in Ch3 people had a cow and that caused pretty much everyone on both sides to get fed up. The "vanilla" people were mad content they dislike was being added (despite this content being planned) and the "taboo" people were mad because this content keeps getting put in the backseat regardless. Like the latest update when D/F go to a swingers club...and didn't swing? Makes sense.

Wait so which is responsible for mr.dots changing the direction? The new writers that were hired or the patrons?

I really enjoyed the game and wondered if it's possible to make a one time donation to mrdots without subscribing?

make it on his patreon or subscribestar pages and cancel it before the next installment ... alternately subscribe to a lower level and once you have reached your limit cancel it ... bare in mind DMD is coming to an end

Also bare in mind Dots is one of the few top creators, so, do what you want, it's your money, but in case there's another game that you enjoyed that is made by a less financially lucky team, maybe your money would be more useful there.
