To me it would be obvious for a dev to release one version as Patreon friendly but offer a patch outside Patreon to unlock the content.
Devs can't offer official patches for their games to get around Patreon TOS (i.e. an incest patch) if they are promoting any version of their game on Patreon. That would still be a violation of TOS.

Unofficial patches made by "someone else" allow devs to have "plausible deniability". This is the same "plausible deniability" that developers allow Patreon to have when developers do not promote their games on Patreon which violate TOS (such as how there is nothing about "Dating My Daughter" on Mr. Dot's Patreon).

Developers can also make all relationship settings the choice of the player - again, offering "plausible deniability" for developer and Patreon, alike - such as the Name Your Friends settings in DF. Which goes to your earlier point: since that setting is available for DF and the developer still has yet - after 5.5 years - to include significant sex content for the mother and daughter characters in DF, that should be a huge red flag for fans.

Well, i am not sure why devs go through all the trouble and are unable to write the story they want.
I rather would put it on itch. I know, money. But if you think about it, would rather make a game you have intended or something just to be compliant with Patreon because of the donations.

I think i never understood that really because in my mind i want to make a game i desire without cuffs around my arms. But of course i would do it because i want to and not because i want money.
I just picture what this game could have been a long time ago.

Just my thoughts of course. But i am getting a little tired of games that are ultra slow burn which reminds me of another big title.

act 2 which need to download first?
While you can download stuff from Act 2 in any sequence you want to, I would not do so! All of Act 2 is an art experiment (if you want to be nice about it) or something an addled mind cooked up (if you are less nice about it). All Act 2 parts are not a game in any coventional sense, but art experiment at best or mental breakdown (would be fitting since it is mainly about the Son, which is on the way towards a psychotic character in DF 1 already).

So you can try Act 2 if you want, but no longtime thread visitor, be it fan or critic of DF, tries out this LSD trip on renpy!!

Hey fellas, i didn't follow this game before and I'm relatively new to the game... What's the order that I need to play it? Also, what's with the Party Hall, TV DS, Din Lick, Adama and Aves versions? They don't seem to be available for download any longer, do I need to look for those versions as well?

There are nearly 1800 posts with the majority of them saying don't bother. Looking at the previous 2-4 pages would tell you the same.
