The patreons are the ones who asked for the 2 months wait for new patreons. His supporters don't like pirates very much.
Imagine how much money the dev is losing out on because he wants to please his Patreons. Many including me would've subbed to his Patreon to get the new release. In my case because It's a big update and I'm a fan of Dottie and It's stated that It's a lot of content with her.

I support other creators for months and usually a new update doesn't end up on here after a few days, sometimes even 1-2 weeks. By that time the Patreons have already played the new update.

what I don't understand is how as a PATREON you want to lock out the update for your little group... do they really care? or is it just a powerplay for those basement dwellers? again, I do support a DEV when I feel like their creation tickles my fancy, but usually I never pledge longer than 2 months in a row, and just like you I would have supported him for longer than just one month, but this 30 day rule and super expensive higher tiers are just not worth it imo. I just wait and play a bit later, same sh1t! (I just wanted to see what is on his PATREON page when you sign up to the lowest tier)

...after all the identifying information is removed, and that is if anyone actually sends it to him.
I wonder how many of those +260 paid people are the highest tier! can't be higher than 5-10% ! even that would be insane in my opinion

While I sadly can't be the hero you all want, I do at least feel like giving back to the community from whence I came.

That's so weird. According to developers, the first two weeks are the most important for game sales and Denuvo has proven to helped their sales.

This guy's DRM is the exact opposite of how to make sales. The 1 month lockout means people aren't going to want to buy into his patreon and just wait for the month, when it's free for everyone. The guy is missing out on sales. Sure, pirates get it faster, but i'm sure he would sell more copies. in the end, it would have been an increase in profits, not loss.

edit: wait, i just realized his plan doesn't work. it locks out newcomers for 1 month before they can get a copy. 1 month... the exact same time it goes free to everyone. Why even subscribe in the first place if you get it for free in the same amount of time?
Exactly this! What's the point of long-term support at the $5 or $10 tier, when you're forced to wait anyway? You don't get the game, even if you've been subbed since January, which is even dumber because you've *literally paid more than expected* to get the game. It's discouraging for new patrons, and insulting to current patrons. Huge shame, considering how great the game is.

Because people are stupid and don't read anything.
(they don't even read important contracts)

The plan works, there will always be idiots who will pay because they don't know anything BEFORE paying. Not many (or many-many ), but there are always a few. At least a few!
Since there are people supporting (via Patreon/Subscibestar) creators who haven't released anything in years, there will be even more people willing to support a dev who releases something. All in all, it's pretty good stuff, maybe not exactly my taste but definitely above average. Oh wait, this dev also releases updates once a year...
