Its not exactly fair to compare DM to say EA or Steam and the $60 AAA titles. DM has to pay server fees, costs of manufacturing such as computer parts, electricity and sustain a livable wage while still turning out the same quality product each and every month and any team members wages. Meanwhile steam and EA are releasing multiple games a year with DLC's, subscriptions and merchandise and they sell millions of copies of a game versus DM's ~1300 or so Patreons. I get the point though, I have been a patreon of DM for nearly a year now, it does add up. But if we want Monica, we gotta pay and hope DM keeps going, otherwise no Monica.
