by supporting this game for 5 years at $5 a month I could've bought and paid for the labor of installing a new transmission in my car lol

I must honestly say that I've never given much thought to this project. I was curious about the game, got it and thought “It's not as completely unplayable as the other ‘demo’ porn games with big ambitions where you can't even control the character normally.”And therein lies the problem.
Look, I'm not telling you how to spend your money, but I think it is more dignified to give it to the homeless guy in the corner of the street who is at least "honest" about his heroin addiction than to give it to scamilious.
Respect and dignity are very valuable, both of which are things helius knows nothing about. They do not respect the very people who are funding their damn life costs.
Thing is, the guy found an infinite money loophole, through several types of people:
1. some such as your self, who are thankfully well off and don't care about the amount and are slightly hopeful about the project.
2. people huffing copium that one day this will be a finished game. (utter delusion)
3. people believing the lies about the "features" they are going to add
4. people who don't know who helius is or are uninformed about the game/situation.
And I guarantee you, he will not pull out of the loop hole because why would he, he is making money just by posting bullshit lies and an occasional shitty update. And worse case scenario, as @yessiyuri1 mentioned, he can just dump the game, change his pseudonym and rinse repeat with some other game.
All I can say is, whether you can afford it or not, don't support scum, they will either get bolder or multiply.
But you can see from what I have said so far that I am rather skeptical about the whole thing, and today's insights have made some things clearer to me. Thanks for that, folks.

Hey lad, I would wait if I were you.
At least until this game is released on Steam, because the game will be free to play.
1: The developer of this game is incompetent at managing the project, and many of the backers are unsure if this will ever be released at a decent state. The developer was caught lying about the project on multiple occasions, everything gets delayed, and when the updates are released, they are broken and unoptimized.
2: No point in wasting your money on a project that will end up free, Innit? I get it when people want to support a Dev, but this one does not deserve your money. Use this money to treat yourself right lad, get some other game, or a nice food that you like, or see a movie.
I've just discovered this game after cleaning up old bookmarks and finding the name "Paralogue".
So as I understand it, the version available here is the 0.49 cracked - because the "live" version is apparently multiplayer and online only (On a porn game?!) and is one of those that requires multiple months of sub to "earn" the key to play - and apparently has an entire in-game MTX/economy system going on as well?

Patreon is terrible for encouraging poor development practices. When making any sort of project you have to decide what your means are and then design a game within those. It's all very noble to say that "I want developers to create without limits on time!" But unless said developer has experience in finishing projects then all you're doing is enabling them to dally about, fall to feature creep and add the temptation to start trying to pander to requests from patreons ect on content.
Early access is fine because like, at least the flow of money isn't infinite. Only so many people will give you that first chance and then if others see you're not delivering then they won't buy your early access version.
It is amazing and somehow unbelivebable at the same time, how you have a whole discussion on why no one should be supporting scams, some guy reflecting on his financial decisions, some other guy reconsidering his current stand, yet one post later...
the question that has been asked, 31241 times before... man this shit wiill never end. Mods should lock this thread. dear god.
alright. i also think the same i will wait for this game available on steam

partly because early access has specific requirements as far as I know, whereas any idiot can post on patreon about their shitty game that's so poorly done as of writing that they could never make anything good out of it, and people bite it
Blender, and some motivation, can make all of that, but with custom poses and scenes.
Studio Neo v2 if you don't care that much about graphics and want a quick start.
Paralogue is nothing but a scene viewer with gatcha on top anyway.
I've been pretty much exclusively looking at my own stuff that I've made in HS2's Studio Neo v2 and it's so much better than any of the stupid porn I find on the internet. And no I won't post any of it because I did at some point and people were complete assholes.
If you want spoon-fed animations and characters, you gotta pay the tax of sucking whoever-made-it's dick.
Hounds of the Blade/Hounds of the Meteor are interesting sci-fi/alien focused games with, well, actual gameplay. Models are hit or miss for people though.
Jap dev called ACID STYLE (multiple games on here) does a lot of sci-fi 2D stuff and has parodied games like Halo and Fallout. Sprite-based graphics though, but can be pretty fun and content packed.
There's also Monsters Abyss that's also on here, still in dev and the demos can be rough.
But of course the important thing about the games listed above is that they won't stop working when Helius pulls the plug on his rented Amazon web servers. Even if it just remains a scene viewer, this game should have remained as an offline product not reliant on a constant connection to a server in order to play.
It somehow scares me yet knowing the human race, sigh in futility that people can throw a few bucks being thrown at a barely finished product and think nothing much of it. I suppose that's how it is these days. People having so much money (or so little) that they can easily throw money around and shrug their shoulders.

I tend it find it more odd that people that have never met one another, never will meet - have never interacted with other than on an online porn forum seem to have a mindset that they have a say in what others spend their money on and support. While I've never paid for this game, I never will - but my decision doesn't come from other people telling me to - or not to - do something, but rather from my own ability to look at something and simply think.
You realize people paid for porn magazines in the past or Playboy right?
You realize people pay for video porn whether DVDs and such in the past or online access right?
You realize people pay for stuff like OnlyFans right?
How about games like Illusion's and other porn games? Aside from those who pirate them of course.
So you're surprised people spend some $35 on the best looking porn game (if you aren't into Furry's) that has been available for multiple years now as nothing has shown up to supercede it? Are you really that surprised?
You say it is unfinished but have you actually ever played any other porn game, like ever? It already has more than Illusion games which were the reigning porn game offerings until AI Shoujo and later. Even if it is incomplete, which it definitely is, you're acting like it is offering so little that a meager $35 can't be justified. I mean, it is hard to take you seriously with the way you are presenting your take, and this is coming from someone who doesn't like any of their characters and thus doesn't play the game because Helius doesn't know anything but huge fucking boobs.
People often pay for Early Access in games all the time, too. This is hardly new.
So tell us what the alternative is that you are suggesting to this game to spend money on for a porn game. If your argument is to not spend any money on a porn game period then your entire prior comment was pointless. I'm not even trying to defend Helius. Your comment was just that irrational. As Sirene pointed out, people also have different perspectives in how they spend their money or time in terms of personal interest and value.
By all means, get in line to throw a dig at this game's shortcomings and Helius' failures. However, this round was definitely a fail.
You could also take your Blender results and then enhance the final result with Stable Diffusion. It plays very well with Blender. With the supporting blender model it helps improve animation consistency, too.
You look new, Welcome to the site!
Erm, it should be located wherever you saved it to no?
Which version are you using: Official version with serial OR Demo from Steam OR Cracked version from OP Thread?
Official and Demo version textures should be in the Steam download location:
"..\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Operation Lovecraft Fallen Doll Playtest\"
If you have the game icon on your desktop right click it and select 'open file location'.
That should take you to where it's downloaded.
IDK what you're going to do with the textures tho...
