The update does sound to be something exciting. Monica acquires a "new experience", now that is something i am interested in. Julia will be punishing Monica. I don't like Julia in particular but if Monica is going to be pushed a little further I'd be willing to put aside my dislike for Julia.V12 is OUT!

I'm happy to announce the new big regular update for the game beloved by many, "Fashion Business"!
As always, I’ve been working extra hard to bring you a pleasant experience and release updates on time.
I’ve put a lot of effort and idea in into this particular update, I hope you enjoy it.
Monica’s adventures continue, she acquires a bit of new experience ;-)
This update includes 1774 cool images, many hot animations, and 20223 words worth of dialogue!
What’s new:
- Office: Monica continues to ‘bond’ with her colleagues at the office (animated scenes)
- Steve: Steve continues business negotiations with his new partners. These include Monica (big animated scene)
- White: Monica decides to make use of White’s offer and take part in a photo shoot for her magazine to make money. (hot photo shoot, additional content in the Extra version)
- Julia: A scene where Julia gets jealous and punishes Monica. (animated scene, additional content in the Extra version)
- Slums: Monica gets dragged into another fraudulent scheme run by Misty. Where will this lead her? (animated scenes, additional content in the Extra version)
- Victoria: Victoria wants ‘friendship’ with everybody. What will Melanie face for her careless remarks at the photo shoot? (long scene, additional extreme content in the Extra version)
Even the other events seem nice and atleast have an element of suspense from the description. Hopefully it is just as fun to play.

I don't know what you're talking about, but if even Denuvo has been hacked, it's unlikely anyone will be stopped by some "activation steps". As for the Extra version, I'm still of the opinion that we should have patience and be prepared to wait at least a couple of weeks. (if you appreciate what the developer is doing). But if DM comes up with something more complicated (which you were hinting at) it will only provoke people to hack the game and leak it to the public earlier.Oh the whining will be great with the new activation steps for extra content..I wish you well

I wonder why the game is getting less popular overtime and receiving now less support than it used to have. I mean a year Decent Monkey had about 2000 patron, but now there are only 1500.
I personally feel that the game itself is getting better, not worse. The quality of the pictures and animation has improved quite a bit and most of the grind has gone in recent updates. The scenes are also getting hotter with more sex and so on.
Some might say it is because of pirates who upload the game here, but almost all other games get pirated and shared on this site, but still the number of their patrons is growing.

It is most probably because at this point fashion Business is too intimidating to play. I have my saves but seriously if i were to lose them, i might never pick up FB again just because reaching the same point is too much work. Luckily now we can start from Episode 3 itself but even that alone is time taking honestly. So for new players starting from Episode 1 is a daunting task to reach episode 3. Over 50000+ renders and 1000's of animations, not to mention the grind and doing some scenes repeatedly, makes those 50000 renders effectively 80-90 thousand. The initial grind is still there. You continuesly still need to keep clicking, like to enter a building, you need 2 to 3 clicks and so on.
Decent Monkey is definitely improving in terms of art and animation he would benefit a lot if he makes a new game. There are no developers who can develop as much content as him in such less time. Fashion Business should be brought to it's closure soon if DM wants to prosper further financially. I myself have been surprised by the low numbers on his patreons.

Well, ignore the pick of the graph, check the average, he is losing some patron but it is not as bad.
Probably story is going on for too long, despite the high quality of the game.
I am in favour of shorter stories but with decent sequel.
Anna is an example, the sequel is very successful.
Now this Monica is stuck in this situation for too long, or the Dev escalate (gangbeng, rape etc) or it close with revenge.

Some decrease may be due to the disconnection of Russian users from Patreon for obvious reasons, Paypal and payment from Russian cards do not work for us

Lets not forget that he started a new game about 12 months ago. So some may have started following that game. Also since the new game his releases that you could set your clock too have become less consistent. The last 12 months have been the least productive since I have followed the game. Not only that but the quantity of renders and events in each update has been less than before the new game launched.
There is site for Russian users “Boosty”. If the developer will create page there he will get more subscribers.

A new game can be a bust. Probably will, since most new games are not financially successful. 1500 patron is not such a little number. Let's say 200 out of them pay 30 dollars. It's 6000 dollars. Let's say the rest of the patrons pay 5 dollars. It is another 6500. Even excluding the Patreon fees it is a huge amount of money in Russia. You need to be up there very high to get such a salary. Very few IT specialist earn more than 5000 dollars.

I agree it is a big number. But he can increase his engagement by gradually introducing his new game and FB moves closer to its end. No need to end one to start another. He can to small updates of his new game initially and get feedback. His patrons already pay for FB so they will just be getting a free game to try on the side. If it is successful, DM can successfully move to closing down FB and focusing on the new game. This way he has already established a market for his new game.
Plus there is very little chance for DM to fail considering his quality is really good and the updates are big and frequent. This itself is a rarity in the 3d games sphere.
Additional DM is not alone, there are others who work with him and get paid from the patron earnings as well. So he might not even be making as much as he deserves for being such a top quality dev. He should definitely try to push towards 2500 patrons.
because of julia and victoria

I think that's the point too. DM has spread his forces on the second project but ended up miscalculating his forces and as a consequence (less content on each FB update) lost some of the patrons. Note that the decrease in the number of patrons did not start after 24 February 2022, but much earlier.
The peak on the chart, after which the decline began, is the approximate launch date of MILFs of Sunville. Whether this is a coincidence or a pattern is up to you to decide. But personally I don't have much faith in a "magical spillover" of FB patrons to patrons of the alien MoS. They are too different games (FB hardcore and MoF vanilla) and too different audiences.
Perhaps the fact that globally the game's storyline froze in place also played a role. A huge number of storylines and as a result - an attempt to fill each one with content, but all in all this translates into a very slow progression of the game's global storyline.
And again we come to what we've already discussed. In my opinion, for the foreseeable future, DM should reduce the number of current FB storylines by completing them and heavily pushing the main story of the game, do some episode 3 endings, and then start episode 4, which will fundamentally change everything that happens in the game. You know I'm in favour of your version of developments but there could be a few of those, but not as many as there are now.
Of course, you could continue doing things as before, releasing 4-5 (let's say) events for each route in each update. In that case, the game could be extended for another 5-10 years, but whether or not the current patrons would take it well, I can't say. Personally, I'd like to see the finale of Monica's adventures sooner than 5 years from now.
