That tends to be the case with these games. The yandere simulator of the adult game world in a way lol. This is exactly the reason why so many people tend to avoid supporting patreons and such like the plague.

What I don't understand is that nobody had the thought to release the version as it is now and then release an update when the animations are done is a possibility.
I'm just baffled by this. All for a tech demo no less.... just what the fuck

The mindset about this is the problem.
This is a tech demo, people are voting to have H animations be completed as if the game was ready to be released as an early build w a solid foundation. The thing about this, the tech demo should be released to see how the game actually plays since it's naturally going to be the first thing anybody would be expected to interact right at the get go.
The poll is centered on the H animations, which is the main draw to be abundantly clear, but it's been a approx. a year since this remake has been in the works. It'd be appropriate to release the tech demo as it is. Yeah, no duh people are going to choose the option to complete the animations. That'd be a given regardless if there wasnt a poll but pictures and released as it is.
Again, to reiterate, the tech demo should be about the gameplay in it's current form. People can wait for H scenes to come in. LOK:R has had years to reach to that point w Cenvir but it already had a foundation to stand on as a game, though barren in gameplay itself.
The poll is a false choice in the matter. The animations will come regardless ((per your options)), but people thinking w the wrong head decided to extend the tech demo beyond the timeframe as it is. If given the choice to wait it out even more by forgoing the tech demo release, wait an actual build to release w even more H scenes in store with no timeframe given on when it'd release, the people would still support that.
There's a reason why terms like Sunk Cost fallacy, echo chambers and Yes Man exists
For someone like yourself to tell your criticisms of gameplay in regards to other LoK games, one would think you'd show off the tech demo for the gameplay itself. Or is this due to a lack of confidence in the gameplay and relying on the H animations to carry through? To which, that's understandable as that's the majority of most H games content being barren in gameplay but abundant in H scenes

I´d imagine it would be a win for everyone:
You put aside your differences, Abelius can rejoin as dev with focus on the 0.8 version, you could quickly animate new scenes with Nesi/Sek/Keakrix/Nemiri/Eri etc. with the already existing artwork and code of 0.8, a good amount of 0.8 favoring ex-patrons might repledge and everyone would have more LOK Rebrith (current AND old version) content to enjoy. I myself am a fan of both versions.
Just my thoughts.
Don't misrepresent yourself, I repeat, are the almost 2000 patreons you have now from 9 months ago or are they already from the first versions of LOK Rebirth? Maybe the game wouldn't be as bad as you're painting it.

Shame you all couldn't come to a different result Abe, I was a huge fan of the original LOK:R. For me it was the perfect balance of adult content/game 60/40, whereas the remake feels like its going to be more game then adult content. In a perfect world you all could have limited the scope of the original and continue with monthly updates, while the other team releases quarterly updates of the larger scope game. To me I feel that would have been a winner, a huge winner at that. Since no one is willing to share their time machine, I will keep an open mind and wait to give the new game a try. Hope it works out for everyone involved.
I believe the last version I had played was around...v0.05 or something? I didn't even get to valeens (leather worker) There is whole lot of content I'm missing. Lies. I played .08, but only up to some of Guldran. Still a lot of content I have yet to play.
I've enjoyed the pre-reboot, and I hope to enjoy the post-reboot.

That isn't a bad thing, Abel, and for the record I very much respect your work on LoK, and I think you're a very smart man. I don't hold any sort of grudge against you, and we didn't do any of this to spite you. I know you hate me, but I'd be open to working with you again if you ever got over your hatred of me.
I hope your high school project takes off, I really do.

So how long are we potentially off a release? I think most of us are on the fence on supporting the game until we see something playable.
I think after all this time (and while the patreon updates are exciting) most of us are a but cautious, I guess the same with any game in this genre. At the very least it's good to see the creators communicating with the fans, even though TBH I'm surprised you guys are actually on this site at all.

Definitely agree, communication is always appreciated albiet there be drama at times. For the most part, completely remaking a game that wasn't finished and still ask for support after the fact is highly unusual. The previews are nice to see a glance at the progress the game has but it'd be another few years to see a possibility the game would be finished.
The need to see the sort of potential in action of the remake of LoK:R is all about is critical for future support, especially well after approx. a year since the annoucement of it.
I'll believe it when I see something I haven't seen here.

The game as it currently is on the first page is no longer being worked on. But for almost a year now they've been working on a remake.
Lord, why did they do this? The old design was better!
(I want a graphic mod that will return it to the game)
Wrong decision! Even now it’s clear that the previous appearance of the characters is more elegant and attractive. I am disappointed.

agreed, the new artstyle is like 10 steps back. Especially the lizard girls whose jaw looks like its detachable.
From my point of view krystal has a slight upgrade + you can adjust her to look more like the old one, but the lizard girl is yee a downgrade compared to old one especially the jaw as i mentioned a few times. Still not my choice and im fine with the choice they made even though lizard girls will be like 5 times less sexy for me.Lord, why did they do this? The old design was better!

Anyway I'm happy with the game upgrade and the fact they said many times already the old one would crumble after few more updates just like Simbro did and was abandoned in the end, so i don't actually see any room for me to make any hard complain even if they go with something I would'nt like.
After all, some ppl seem to not understand that they have actually no right to complain even if they donate some money to them, you have right to support them or not, if you support them with 10$ 100$ or even 100 000$ you still have no right to complain because it was your choice for giving them that money you could also not do it, it was just YOUR choice whatever you did , why you dont ? you didnt make any specific contract with them where you put some sum of money like an investor and where your voice actually have some value towards them. But you can still be a critic and say stuff like this is worse than before, this would be better if you did it like this instead of this, stuff like that instead of, You guys fu.. it up i dont want that give me back that , i paid you 5$ so make this game as i want (ignore the hundreds/thousand other ppl that also paid, or your own vision of the game) , this is shi..
Yeee sorry for kind of chaotic comment here I could probably make it more detailed and easier to understand whats my point here but im kind of lazy and dont really feel like trying after reading multiple bs comments here, also have it in mind it might get deleted like last one. Have a nice day and keep it calm.

Looks like a vast improvement to me. A lot of people also find the lizard girls to be cute, I happen to be one of them, but hey, everyone has their own personal taste.
If you don't like them, then there are plenty of other races we plan on adding in the future, including other lizard species.
