That's kind of a reason I think that Sel is going to stay away from F95. It has to be a hit to his mental when the last few updates have been leaked so quickly after release.FYI the newest update isYou must be registered to see the links.
The game is released to the public every two weeks, so it's not much of a waitPlease don't steal from Selebus as that's pretty rude considering he releases his game free so often.
He has admitted to it being bad for him to witness, as it would be for anyone to witness a theft in progress. There is some minor good coming from the speed of the leaks, though. It does show that the game is so popular that it is a priority target. In terms of popularity, that's a good thing. It's still a bad thing on the monetary side, though.
Yeah, well. i kinda figured that might be the case, actually.
The theory I've seen expressed the most is that she happened to hear them by chance and then was surprised that Sensei's biggest fear was losing his memories, something she suspects happened.
Something to note, Yumi reacts the same way whether she does or doesn't know that Sensei and Chika are now actively dating.
I know it's easy for me to say, but I think he should focus more on the bright side. Look at
The only real bright side is that the frequency of leaks indicates his game is popular enough to be a priority target, though I'm not even sure that counts as a bright side. Sure, it means his game is getting attention even outside the people willing and/or capable of paying for it, but it also serves as a source of diminished possible income. He could have had those people paying for it if there was no leak.
Already made it past that one, don't you worry. I have 100% completion with the current version.
Texas has no state income tax, and I don't believe there are any other state taxes that would apply to Patreon.
Nicely done, that one stumped many a player in the early days of that build, myself included for a few hours, I can only imagine how much harder it is without sound since one of the answers is sound only.
Good to know, so Selebus just has to deal with federal taxes, that does mean he gets more of it than I initially thought he might, but it still doesn't mean he gets it all and he likely does not.
I'm sure it is. But it's also almost inevitable that leaks will happen, so it's better to try to not worry about it too much, if possible. And since the 5k goal meant, in author's own words "You guys have already made my dreams come true by allowing me to work on the game full time", it should be a bit easier to get over it with current 10k (where it's possible to choose to see it only as annoyance) than it would be with e.g. 2k (where it's real problem, because it means needing also other sources of income). Yes, it's bad, unfair, hurtful, ... but it's not like there's any easy solution (*), so why let it get to you too much and torture yourself?
Except that if you look at a few other games on here that had DRM in them, it ended up preventing the leaks for not even a whole extra day. Patreon login to be able to play? Cracked within a few hours at most.
Inevitability does not prevent stress or worry, in fact, it is more likely to cause it if there is no way to stop an undesired outcome. Try as we might, we cannot help it if we get stressed out by that kind of thing and that stress can lead to negative health consequences, both mental and physical. There is no getting over having something stolen from you right before your very eyes with no way to resist, that's just not something you get over. You're right, there is no easy solution, which is why Selebus is choosing to try and look away instead of continuing to watch helplessly.
Precisely, there are people on here willing and able to crack most, if not all, DRM that is available at the moment for the average developer. It would take military grade protection to stop them. With no other viable alternative, looking away and trying to ignore the theft is his best option and I'm glad he's taking it, though sad he won't be as active here because of that.
Yeah, no, it's programed.
Not how humans work. If that were the case, we would all be just happy to have what we currently have and be content.
It be preaching to the wrong crowd, but what's wrong with that?
The irony is, if games appear here within hours of being made available to patrons, there's less incentive to become a patron.
Well, that's the challenge. I'm not saying it's simple choice when it's happening to you. "This thing depresses me, but now I'll tell myself to not worry about it... right, done, I'm happy now", that's not how it works. But if you can't fix the original problem, then it's really between "let it drag me down" and "get over it". It's like glass half full or half empty, no matter how you see it, it will have the same amount. But one way to look at it can be better than other. It's easy to see when you're outside observer and watch it happening to someone else. It's more difficult when it's you, as it requires to distance yourself from it first, but being depressed prevents you from easily doing that. But it's worth to try.
That's a bit too materialistic aproach. It can still suck when you offer very fair deal (everything free after two weeks) and people can't even respect that.
Yeah, it's safe to say that Sel won't need a day job anytime soon. Also, people keep trying to downplay how much larger developers make from patreon by adding minor and in some cases irrelevant types of costs to it. A lot of these costs would be minuscule compared to what they actually make
