That’s fine if you don’t like this VN, like I said, it isn’t the type of VN you’re looking for. There’s plenty out there that does what you’re looking for, and the Dev has no incentive or need to do what you want. I pledge 2.5x times the highest Patreon tier because I enjoy this VN, and there’s plenty of others who enjoy this VN as well. At the end of the day, this is a Piracy forum, so there’s very little reason to argue with each other or whine about what the Dev is doing since they aren’t obligated to listen.

If you're going to bitch, at least do it about the right things. This take? Garbage.
Game will be released when it is 1.0
Newest version is to be 0.10.
Math me out how a tenth of the game is close to release.

I've already cancelled my patreon subscription since I got cockblocked too many times already in the recent updates, and the new updates are like 2-3 mins of gameplay lol. Maybe after 1 year or so ill come back to it.

His methodology is clearly working. People who don't want to wait are spending money.

It's honestly not that clear to me, when it comes to the codes. The game was already making 2k+ when he introduced the codes and the trend basically continued as it was (

). It's true that the average earning per patreon has gone up a bit, but one has to see whether that's going to last or not. At least in my experience there isn't a huge overlap in the number of users who are willing to spend $10 or $15 on getting one or two updates, and the ones who regularly pirate that same content. Those who want to spent money will spent it anyway and those who don't very likely won't, as long as they get to play the game at some point.

Had he established codes from the beginning, I think most would have passed on it. He waited until he got people 'invested' in the game. For me, until I am showed otherwise, I will take him at his word that he is doing it to protect his patrons - since he does eventually release the full version. Whether the wait be two weeks or a month, I will continue to check it out - because it costs me nothing to wait.

Given that the game will likely be on the shorter side, it's probably an acceptable strategy. One has to see that his patreon turnover seems high compared to other games (which means many people subscribe for one months, but won't resubscribe the next) - so it's not a very good long term strategy, given that there's a risk you'll never really form a very stable base.
It's an argument, though I don't think it's a very good one. I don't think that many people actually care about the exclusivity - at least I sure know, that I don't for any of the games I'm giving money to.
I usually prefer actual benefits like getting access to the creation process etc. via video, etc. as some other devs do it.
That's fine. As said above, the number of people who care enough wanting to play the game "right now" but "not wanting to pay" at the same time, is probably not that large. I still think it's ultimately a waste of time and that he'd make similar amounts of money without all of this, while he'd have more time to work on the game and a much more relaxed life as a dev.

Before I give you my like I have to ask. We talking real "Pubic hair" or body hair like hairy armpits, legs, etc. I'm good with the first, but I've been drawn in before expecting a little bush down there and gettingPubic hair on CGs please!
That's a bit disgusting for me but I can tolerate it in games from Megrim like Love love my buddy because I love all of his creations.
Ideal for me:

Stop cluttering the game thread asking for passwords, DMing of links, etc.

You should check an actual dictionary (not dicktionary) for the word scam to understand its meaning and where it implicates.
