Merry x-mas to you too -despite we will never grew as friends, everybody deserves a feast in peace - wish you the very bestEdit: anyways my flight is boarding Merry Xmas all
I can understand that you align the game according to economic aspects. That first of all as a statement. It is your game and I would not let anyone talk me into it if I make my living from it.well - basicially we have a 100% non-ntr and non-sharing policy in general.
Long time ago as Jeff Steel was still onboard, HE was the one who convinced MrDots to include that sharing-crap.
The team agreed, and we went for a try - and it failed. You know all those rage and senseless discussions. All the hate and fights. All the bashing and kink-shaming.....
We just get sooo sick of all that, so we went back to our roots (no ntr - no sharing) in our future updates.
Go and thank those, who got greedy and kept demanding and demanding for more.
You know what you get, when you dmand? right - you get NOTHING.
The people raged and told us how many supporters we will lose, because their group is soooo big.
You know what? we might have lost a few - maybe a dozen, maybe 2-3 dozen....
... But same time now overall we have more active supporters than we had ever before when counting SS and patreon together.
So what now?
Oh boiiiii - they were wrong. Seems they aren't that important as they think. Maybe tehy arent that many as it seems.
People - 90% of all players over here aren't our supporters at all - So (talking to all out there who might feel "ignored" because we didn't add Martin content) PLEASE stop thinking you are important in ANY way. We tried it once to listen, but we regret bitterly - so we will not listen anymore and do as we want - take it... or leave it.
So they should pause it every other month while they're working on the other game ? Are you aware of the basic principles of sites like Patreon or SStar ? Do you know there's devs releasing updates maybe 3 times per year and they don't even work on a second game ? Shall they pause subscriptions all the time and only activate it on the months they release an update ? Shall they pay rent and buy food only 3 times per year ? that's not how support works.and you never paused subscriptions when you were not working on this game (DmD)
Some would call that unethical
I just call it milking
yes - there is SIGNIFICANT difference.I can understand that you align the game according to economic aspects. That first of all as a statement. It is your game and I would not let anyone talk me into it if I make my living from it.
But I do have one question - Was there a difference in the negative reaction between the virtual characters Martin and Ryan?

I wish people who agree with me on the fact this game became too vanilla, or too mid, not really satisfying either side because it was trying to satisfy everyone, had better arguments.
The team specifically said back in August they were not going to work on any DmD updates at all untill NovemberSo they should pause it every other month while they're working on the other game ?

same as most of the other late posts are off-topic tooThis is off topic
This is just not how it works. It's up to supporters to cancel their subscriptions if they feel like it, not to the team.The team specifically said back in August they were not going to work on any DmD updates at all untill November
The ethical thing would have been to suspend payments on the SS platform
They didn't
the subscriptions are not soley for DMD - they are for MrDots in general. He is continuously creating games - without any free time (except january) for 7 years right now. His main game (after DMD has been banned from Patreon) has been Melody and now Sunshine Love. DMD is just a bonus on top of the basic subscription if you pay a little more (see support level).The team specifically said back in August they were not going to work on any DmD updates at all untill November

story - he might feature in the fantasy updateAnything involving the Dog or is that just a tidbit of the story?
Well Cassandra is a woman and Martin isn't that's good enough reason to leave Martin out of the endings for me . Also if you want some BBC so badly go out and get some of your own .Just saying he isnt just a side character i mean when cassandra can get an ending then martin would have more than deserved an own ending. The build up then they fuck 2x and jus forget about him? wtf
Im not the only one who assumed that there would be an martin ending
That's a shame, but understandable as it'd be a stretch to add in the main story. Fantasy update sounds gooodstory - he might feature in the fantasy update
That doesn't surprise me. Ryan and Graham were written in such a way that they never posed a threat to the father/daughter relationship. Martin, on the other hand, did.yes - there is SIGNIFICANT difference.
First up, i do tell this without ANY rating nor do i intend to hint ANYTHING - that's just pure facts because you asked for it:
There was nearly ZERO talk about Ryan or Graham at all, but soley a MASSIVE shitstorm (in both ways) pro and con Martin
