I agree, a dev could finish up a game and make a new one in the timespan it takes most games here to finish up, they're probably afraid a new IP could lose them potential patreons, but most adult game patreons support a developer, not an individual project.You have to understand that the adult game industry is purely independent and relies on donations, I have no issues with that but what tends to happen is that the devs stretch their games either by giving their donators small consecutive updates, good updates but selective content which rarely includes popular characters and adds random characters to fill the void or they are just repetitive. Unfortunately this leads to messy storylines. This is because if they complete the game or VN they have to make new or modify assets, storyline, characters...etc. Games or VN's that should leisurely take a few months to complete, takes years, this means from one popular single project a dev can actually make hundreds of thousands of dollars.
No.... you have a short sex sceen with older sister and then right back to Little sister again. Seems the two youngest girls is all this dev wants to spend time on.Any sex with the landlady in this update?
since you read my previous post, you are aware that im comparing a post about this game (guilty pleasure) from a player with response from another players from the same game. but you are comparing an apple to an orange. i dont think i need to answer your whole argument which actually just a personal preference. for example, youre talking about (e)book (another fruit) while i could talk about manga, manhua/manhwa and light novel that released per chapter.I'm noticing a trend over the last few months of many games releasing much smaller updates. I am betting that it is an attempt to keep Patrons subscribing more, over the long term, rather than the spikes when updates get released, followed by people un-subscribing right after.
Sadly, IMO, this really affects the quality of these games. The Devs spend so much time packaging updates, and pushing them out, that they start to lose focus on the overall story.
Randos, above, mentions that, by measure of this dev's Patreon page, the game is successful and making them some nice coin. But I would argue that, while the short term gains are good, the game, as a whole, is suffering. Look at Light of my Life, as a perfect counterpoint. Naughtyroads takes 10-12 months to finish an update. But he has more than twice as many Patrons, and is probably making four times the income, what with the subscribestar, itch and - very huge - the introduction onto Steam.
These are both good games. But the way I look at it is this... in this game, I get spoonfuls of content that, while tasty, leave me hungry for more. Waiting for the next tiny portion soon gets frustrating and eventually, I just walk away and shelve this until several updates have gone by. While, with LoML, I know the next update is still several months away - but when it launches, I will plan a whole evening to sit down and enjoy the story. I know I will be happy and satisfied after completing it.
There's a reason authors don't release books, chapter by chapter. Why we have to wait a year or more for sequels. After all, with ebooks, they can release anytime now. But authors want people to appreciate their stories, as well as make money off them. So they finish the books, get them proofed and edited and then release them to the public.
Just my 2 cents. I still like this game, but I would rather wait a month or three for a really good update, then be spoonfed these dribbles every few weeks.
have you seen similar notification above on this game, no? if it's not their thing, will they support the game?post: 1862953 said:Note from moderators: Look at sample pics provided.
If it's not your thing, please don't comment about it. We will delete those comments.
Also, time between updates is long, but updates are huge.
Well, it's all a personal preference, of course.
This is a bad example because Light of my Life started in 2019 where the market wasn't anywhere as crowded as now. By the time Guilty Pleasure started around end of 2020, the market was significantly more crowded. If Light of my Life started around the same time and took 10-12 months to finish an update, there is zero doubt that the number of patrons would be much lower.Randos, above, mentions that, by measure of this dev's Patreon page, the game is successful and making them some nice coin.

You are kinda making my argument for me... The fact that those same people are still Patrons, almost 3 years later, despite the long interval, argues that quality > quantity, with all else being equal. And again, my intent is not to take away from this game. I like this game and it was one of the first I got into, when I joined F95 last year. I'm just unhappy with the current trend of speedy updates that are not really substantive.This is a bad example because Light of my Life started in 2019 where the market wasn't anywhere as crowded as now.

Well, for me it's actually the other way around - my games I'm watching are taking more and more time for the updates. Most of them started also with monthly releases, but having now already 3-4 months. There are very rare ones (like this one here) which still have constant cycles.You are kinda making my argument for me...

Ok i'll gladly admit that the game has been online for a "long" time now, but please allow me to ask what has been unexpected that you CAN NOT "bang" mom at the current time?No.... you have a short sex sceen with older sister and then right back to Little sister again. Seems the two youngest girls is all this dev wants to spend time on.
so far the whole game has been about MC and Little sister and MC and the girl he is tutoring. This update MC finally has accidental sex with older sister. Short and quick and then right back to little sister again. I just don't get why all the Dev seen to spend so much time on the Younger girls in their games instead of the MILFs . 1 of the top porn searches is MILFs not little girls.Ok i'll gladly admit that the game has been online for a "long" time now, but please allow me to ask what has been unexpected that you CAN NOT "bang" mom at the current time?
Did any of the previous updates go in that direction?
