Selebus is the developer, so he is allowed to complain because it is his game.
Unlikely, this doesn't seem to be a simulation, but instead a 'real' world, quotes because this is not the real world as in what we players live in. What we are likely seeing is the slow process of worsening mental instability. I have no reason to believe that this is a simulation just yet, though I have a theory or two based on that in reserve.
You're spot on with your second reply in this comment, humans don't just stop worrying because nothing can be done.
Absolutely nothing is wrong with that third part, it won't do much, but it isn't wrong.
I like Touka being in the class because now I get to watch her fall as well, maybe even participate in it. She might even be the one character I'm willing to overlook player Sensei pulling a Miku on, you'll know what I mean by pulling a Miku once you finish Miku's stuff so far if you haven't already. I hate himederes with a passion, though I don't dislike the ones who are kind and gentle, the ones who don't ignore their own status, but also don't lord it over everyone else like some sort of dictator, and who tend to be nice toward people of lower status. This second type also doesn't come with that annoying laugh that himederes ALWAYS come with when portrayed as stuck up rich girls. Example, the snobby personality in Koikatsu, the program used in making the graphics for this game, has that laugh and it comes out nearly every time a girl with that personality comes to you or you go to them. The personality in game, and therefore any girl that uses it, is also EXTREMELY stuck up, though not as bad as in some anime, where they act like some sort of royalty when they often aren't, hence the name of the archetype as "hime" is princess in Japanese and dere is from the word "dere dere" meaning lovestruck. Touka seems to be a middle ground himedere, one who isn't stuck up, but one who doesn't treat the lower classes almost like equals either. She seems more like one that has yet to learn the ways of her own class and has not learned the behavior of looking down on people, but she knows for sure she is in a higher social class than others like Sensei. She's just not at the point of defining how she treats them. Assuming we ever get to see her development as a himedere, not just as Touka, I hope she turns toward the kinder side of the archetype.
Exactly
Out of those two things, get over it is not an option while it's still happening right in front of you. Things would be different if it suddenly stopped and Selebus was dealing with the aftermath, but he isn't. The issue boils down to exactly what
barglenarglezous said above you.
Your second point in reply to mannice431 is perfectly said, Selebus is offering an extremely fair deal, no exclusive content, the only thing you even get by paying is access to stuff outside the game and your name in the game, location in game depending on choice and tier of patronage. There is literally nothing people don't get without paying.
It isn't downplaying, it's being realistic. Patreon developers don't just get all of the money listed on Patreon, or graphtreon, every month, they sometimes have to deal with taxes, which can take quite a large chunk of it in some places, and definitely have to deal with other expenses like bills, which definitely take a large chunk. Then there's also the stuff that goes on before they even get it, that 10k is the total coming in, but Patreon and other sites like it take a portion of that as their share for allowing the developer to use the site.
The only number we as average players ever see is the total coming in, we never actually get to see the actual amount made after all fees, taxes, and expenses are paid.
No, he can't, that's why he's distancing himself instead of continuing to watch and letting his mental and emotional health decline.
