The game is whatever people think about it, but the truly dismaying revelation is that the dev team intends to continue a two-game process. Which means they're artificially delaying the development schedule of every single game they write. When Patreon banned incest, the hybrid strategy to fund and release DmD made complete sense. Now it's just, well...
Every single game they initiate will take twice as long to complete. This doesn't have to be the case. This is their choice.
I mean, you do realize that things like creative burnout, and writer's block are things, right? Many creatives (not just Adult Game devs) work on multiple projects simultaneously so that they can switch from one to the other when their creative juices stop flowing, or they hit a wall when writing the script. Sometimes it helps to work on something entirely different to give the brain a break. If it is one writer working on both projects then having that freedom could end up with both games moving faster (and being better quality) than they would have individually. That's not to say that the two games would release sooner than if they focused on one, but that two games done this way would release sooner than if they were done one after the other as opposed to simultaneously.
There's also the possibility that with any team larger than a solitary individual, workflows can be optimized to have two different pipelines working side-by-side to make sure that everyone always has something to do, instead of an entire down-line waiting on, say, the writer to give them a script, so they can continue working on posing, rendering or coding.
Do I know if either of these scenarios is the case? No, but to just immediately assume that they are choosing to deliberately take twice as long to complete games is extremely cynical. We don't know what their workflow is, or their reasoning behind wanting to work on multiple projects at a time. Maybe you're right and they just want to make everyone wait and keep paying (despite the fact that it's very likely most of their ongoing supporters aren't just looking for one game to be finished and then plan on dropping their support), or maybe they want to have two teams working separately, or to give their writer the option to switch games when he starts to burn out on one, or maybe they just have two ideas and don't want to only focus on the one and then forget the other. Who knows?
