The thing that makes gachas terrible isn't that the companies sell extras to their games, it's that the companies sell you only a chance of getting the things you actually want and get you to gamble. The care packages are all preannounced and contain exactly what they say they will (plus the letters, which are a neat little extra).ok, but that wasn't my point at all. guy makes 6 figure + a year working solo on a game he has full creative control over regardless of pirating and then does borderline EA gacha style money making schemes. I've seen the road most games go down when they do shit like this and it isn't pretty. let's hope the game doesn't go down in flames through frustrating paywalls and what not. and i gave over 60 bucks in donations before pulling it because paying anything more for a VN is ridiculous
But it's not random. The EA-like gacha BS relies on gambling addiction mechanism, which does not not apply here. You know ahead of time what you will get in a specific month care package. You can even buy them individually for half the sub price after two months.ok, but that wasn't my point at all. guy makes 6 figure + a year working solo on a game he has full creative control over regardless of pirating and then does borderline EA gacha style money making schemes.

Nothing wrong with that.And sure, he did that because he wants even more money.

With regard to paywalls, he's said that the story will always be available for free and the stuff in care package are pure extras, like bonus menus on movie DVDs. I agree that if he started paywalling a story that has always been available for free if you're willing to wait two weeks, that would be bullshit and I would probably pull my support in protest.
i was saying it is BORDERLINE EA gacha style fuckery, not that it was. the next logical steps of the monetization process would lead into these things and its concerning when ever I see the first steps towards it. it always starts with DLC and horse armor. Also I am genuinely hoping that I'm wrong and it doesn't go past what it currently is.But it's not random. The EA-like gacha BS relies on gambling addiction mechanism, which does not not apply here.

All Selebus did was add more incentive for people to sub. And sure, he did that because he wants even more money. But comparing that to the AAA's dumbfuckery is unfair IMO.
Ahhh that takes me back...horse armor
Just to clarify. You have tried calling Kaori on Saturday Night yes?I can't trigger Wither, and I can't understand why. I've followed the wiki, I've done (or missed) all events, I'm definitely past the required day, and I've done the happy event "Good Boy". I am very confused.
HEY YOU!How to solve the broken world, I wake up and go places but there's noone there. What to do?
Yes, I have called her on Saturday Night. It only triggers the usual sequence; that she's busy, and that Sensei decides to call someone else.Just to clarify. You have tried calling Kaori on Saturday Night yes?
