This man made some of the models for this game, he is very talented.
And so is Ryan Reos, one good thing about Helies trying to milk this game as much as possible, is that he will have to commission more character models from these artists, and once this game is dropped/stops getting support the community from other games will be able to extract the models from this game and make mods out of them.
Skyrim has many of Ryan's models in it, Alet was already extracted from this game as well. I would love to use some of these models on Starfield.
that migo guy is real good, ryan reos, not so much
He has been using the same face model he re-purposed from tera online's high elf head model since forever. He sold them too, duh.

Releasing on Steam comes with caveats.

The game is going F2P so he'd need to rely on people paying more for in game currency after trying the game, which is unlikely in its current state.

Steam also have strict requirements regarding false advertising so he'd have to be up front about the state of the game even on third party sites, e.g. Patreon. He wouldn't be able to advertise it as supporting VR, being a rogue like, having combat drill and he'd probably have to remove his Steam promo vid since it isn't reflective of the game...

Essentially he would kill his Patreon revenue and not make it back on Steam. It's unlikely Helius will ever get this game to a state where it would make financial sense to release on Steam. Maybe he'll do it for a quick flurry of sales when his Patreon subs hit rock bottom in a year or two.

Im sure at this point they are already working on their next patreon page and game..they make far more off of patreon then they will ever actually finishing and selling the game...if their point was to sell the game they would have stuck with it being single player (what most everyone wanted)and making outfits and pose animations as DLC's..instead they switched gears again made it a multiplayer to get a new group of patreons as the others started to stop subbing.

12,142 x $4(at minimum) = $48,568 per month
I would guess this number is off though considering you need to donate $36+ to get a steam key, I suspect most people just donate a lump sum to get to that amount rather than waiting the 9 months for the accumulation.

Their original Fallen Doll would've been a good enough formula, clearly the team is big enough to create plenty of content like characters, clothing and animations. I don't think there's anyway any other coombrains are going to fall sucker for a F2P battle pass model, this isn't Fortnite where you're playing with friends and flexing your cosmetics

I really don't like the direction Operation Lovecraft has taken, but when it comes to profits, Asian countries will drop a lot of money on this game, if it's ever released that is. (Just look at FGO for example, that game would not be half as popular without the fan service. Hell they changed the gender of every historical figure they could find.)

Not only Japan, but Korea and China will have big spenders on a game like this. The gacha aspect itself creates a dopamine rush in people who have an inclination to gambling addiction. Being half-Japanese myself I can attest to this, we have in Japan what we call Pachinko parlors, and the amount of money that people spend on places like this is insane.
Even here in the West, we had cases of people dropping thousands and thousands of Euros on Fifa... My point is, be it at fan service/sex or everyday gaming people drop a lot of cash on stupid microtransactions.
I'm not okay with that, but it is what it is.
