VN Ren'Py Completed Dating My Daughter [Ch. 1-4 v1.01] [MrDots Games]

[wrx21]

i've sent PM to mrdots and now wait to see what he'll answer,in the case he gives more informations i'll post it here
but reading his post again more carefully i become even more miserable,the way he explained the situation does not give any signs for optimism..the mentions of new project and "moving forward" to me sounds like an excuse for abandonment of dmd...one thins is sure,there won't be dmd updates in incoming monhts,i hope so much that i'm wrong

I'm sorry Mr Dots but I would imagine the vast majority of your supporters were only there for one thing and that was DMD. There may be a small percentage that will stick around due to how much they liked DMD and recognising that you would be able to put that quality into your next product but I doubt it would be a large percentage. Truly is a sad day and I now feel the need to shoot some peeps on Battlefield to release some frustration

I think you are right.Most people are for DmD.BTW same go for DS.If he think when he replace BB with Glamour that his patrons will stay and support him,he is in huge mistake.I bet at least 30% will leave,won't be surprise if will be even more than 50%.

Well you're right, but I think that crypto currencies are already good enought, maybe just not use bitcoin. If you by the right amount a crypto before paying you don't pay much more.

He can also go on makersupport.
They guidline says


And I think it worth to try...

Hmmm...
Makersupport does seem promising...

There are alternatives, none as easy and broadly available.
Most people active in internet have a paypal account nowadays.
Far fewer even know of existing alternatives, let alone have an account.

There is for example "Erotic Illusions". Is mostly for porn comics, but I don´t know why it would not host porn games too if they make as much money as DMD. It uses segpay for monthly payment and customers just need a credit card.

Why not? What stop him to email the download link to the bakers or graciously give it on his tweeter account or something? Didn't they pay for this? And What about Hatreon?

 

[drowsy]

You had to know that now is the time of the "social justice warriors" given the "me too" movement where you can hurl accusations at anyone from your past in true character assassination form without any burden of proof, paramount to the Salem Witch Trials... I just hope that Mr. D. will at least give us a "happy ending" before he embarks on his new watered down, remove my money from his pocket, Patreon endeavor... (SMH)

Still, don't understand why these guys, especially the "big dogs" just don't tell Patreon to fuck off and do it themselves? What you are a programmer and can't figure out how to build a website and take recurring paypal payments??? I may not be a dev but I am self-employed and if you are willing to pay me, I can take any form of payment that you can offer... Are you that hard up, or stupid, that you can't???

This, so much.

Why on Earth not just go independent? Everyone subscribing to such a game on Patreon is already probably internet-savvy enough to realise they can subscribe via his personal site without necessarily risking anything more. Hell I'd probably be even more inclined to support if they had their own site. As of now I'm not giving Patreon a dollar. They could even change monetisation format, like go with how DDLC does it or something.

I imagine because it is not done.
He said that he was, understandably, not able to work on it since monday, even if he tried.

 

[Londo_Mollari]

btw ... never thought about this ... why not collecting the money from funders directly, whithout using a additional service provider?

I don't know how people in US pay their bills, but here (Germany) most regular bills are paid with automatic bill payment (not sure if this is the correct word for "Dauerauftrag" ^^ ).

Transfering money from here to a US bank account costs about 1,50€ (little less than 2$). Seems to be ok.
Probably transfering money from US to US is for free, isn't it?

 

[armion82]

I my mind it would be the other way around - the new project will get minimal attention (just enough to show there's - minimal - progress ), for its role as a straw man

I think you get the right solution.He actualy don't need to make a new game.He can post montly pictures of his new comic no-text version.Like MatM did.Meanwhile Mr.Dots can continue working on DmD,get payment through patreon and release the game on his site.

 

[Bfrop]

>not able to work on it since monday
They tied his hands too? Seems to me his obligation are less toward patrean than they are toward his backers. What do you think?

Yeah, I think they would be fine with something like this.
I'm a great fan of artdude41 (who moves to another places this week ... so no Carey-updates this week, too :'( ).
At least incest seems not to be a problem.

But they use credit cards for payment. So ...

He seems to nearly finished v0.17. So I'm quite sure we'll get some stuff soon

 

[justjoe2k]

Here is a site he should check out. That he should try to continue the project. I'm sure this forum will try to inform everyone the new site for donation. Or he can do it at his website too.

I'll try to see if there is a site that supports porn even hardcore.

When the first "crackdown" from patreon hit I stopped all my support(11 different games) including Mr.Dots, not because I don't want to support him, but because I don't want to support patreon with the % they get from my donations.

Well, anyways, that is my reaction to this whole thing.

v.17 preview Daughter is sad because the P guys don’t like doughnuts.


Hey guys!

I’m creating this post so that everyone can join in the discussion. I know I have many fans from other sites like f95zone, and I know there are people who can’t financially support me so I’d like to read everyone’s thoughts here.

As I said in my Patreon post, we will try to continue developing DMD on dmdgame.com. v.17 is going to be released in Mid-February to those who pledged during January. I’ve got your email addresses so I can add them to an email autoresponder.

Patreon has practically forced us to create another game in order to keep the page alive, so we can’t offer DMD there anymore. It was either that or seeing our account getting banned.

It’s not what we wanted, so we’ll see how that goes. But our main project will always be DMD.

The project won’t be canceled but we will work at a slower rate than when we’re on Patreon, mainly because we have to look for another payment alternative and we’ll also have to focus on the new game as well. But don’t worry, DMD will be finished no matter what!

We are looking at some potential solutions but for now, we are not entirely convinced. As much as I hate Patreon, they are the best and we might have to wait for a long while until we see some serious competition.

I’ll be reuploading Dating My Daughter: Chapter 1 and Ch.2 v.16 (Without censorship!) to site like Payhip, Gumroad, etc. tomorrow. I don’t know how long they will last, but at least those who didn’t like the censored game will be able to get the original one and also help us financially.

We knew this day would come eventually, and to be honest, I’m kinda glad that DMD is out of there. Patreon was killing my creativity, with all the censorship, the patches, and I’m not sure if my patience would have lasted much longer.

DMD will become Dating My Daughter again, and I’m really excited about that

P doesn’t like puppies either
Thank you for being a loyal fan of the game.


I really appreciate that and those who experienced the first censorship wave, you know that I would never choose a big company over my fans.


Talk to you soon!

Mrdots.

P.S. I’ve received HUNDREDS of messages on Patreon, here and on Discord. I’ll be responding to each one of them but It’s going to take me a while, so please be patient

Reading up on the guidelines of makersupport it seems to have the same flaws that many of the other Alternatives have when it comes to adult content and fetishes. so it would be a temp fix if a fix at all. i dont believe this is the correct solution.

I've written about Makersupport in the Patreon thread best alternative I've found billed as free speech alternative for all.

OFFTOPIC Hey, I´m a fan of Carey Carter too
Artdude41 moves to another place? Do you mean he leaves Erotic Illusion? I was suporter of Ash for a while and I´m planing to be again at some point soon. There are any new comics of Carey in the site (not just images without text) after "The Resort"?

Thankfully this one is not as gloomy. What a rollercoaster of emotions, but great to hear that DmD will be finished no matter what.

Patreon is a bit like the scary mother who comes in and grabs D from you. Mind blown.
