With all due respect, they have gone against their Patrons suggestions numerous times purely based on their own preferances, they also have stopped communicating for months on months at a time, losing Patrons in the process. While yes, Patreon IS a business model and Hreinn games IS a business, they certainly don't act like one and I'd believe they also don't want to treat it as one. Maybe because once you start treating something as a business rather than a hobby, most of the creativity and fun is down the shitter, since it's now all about quotas and meeting expectations rather than doing what you prefer to do and it shows in the game. Or maybe because they simply don't want to, in any case Nomo sure as hell doesn't.
No, they didn't mention that and I never claimed they did. They were implying that purely based on the fact that they are making money off of it that they are obligated to do what the customers want and that simply is just not the case.
They certainly do, as is evident by the past year. As for a terrible business decision, read the above chunk of text.
Influencing a project via suggestions and polls provided by the dev are vastly different from "I PAY YOU, SO START MAKING WHAT I WANT TO SEE IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW AND STOP DOING X".
(Edit : Don't get me wrong, I stopped agreeing with their development once the updates went from "Bi-monthly with 4-5 new high quality scenes" to "5 month with 2 new low quality repeatable scenes". But I just wanted to make clear that, even if they are a business, they can and certainly do whatever they want with their game. Oh yeah, and look at us talking about business decisions in a thread about a porn game, let's just stop that real quick xd.)
