Milking the patreons and never updating the game at a minimally acceptable paceDev will do what he wants to do
If people are being 'milked' that is their fault. There is an unsubscribe button in plain view on Patreon.Milking the patreons and never updating the game at a minimally acceptable pace

I've subscribed to devs whose work I rarely see these days.Wonder how many patrons have forgotten about their subscriptions and just let the monthly deductions happen.
How are they worthless? I still watch my old movies with friends same with CDs, cassettes and records. I even lend out books!I've subscribed to devs whose work I rarely see these days.
It's only a few $ but helps them out.
I haven't bought a DVD, music CD in decades.
I have about £50,000 worth of DVDs and CDs sitting in my loft.
All worthless now.
I could have bought a second house with that money at the time.
I neither smoke, drink or eat fast food.
I only eat fruit and veg and drink water, so I don't spend money on much at all.
So I don't mind supporting people I admire.
Oh no, they possess a value more than money to me.How are they worthless? I still watch my old movies with friends same with CDs, cassettes and records. I even lend out books!![]()
tbh I don't even like Jenny and Alex for their looks. I haven't played in a few updates but I just really enjoyed the Jenny date and as far Alex I liked the little bit I got to know about her so I like Alex for her character. If im being honest it's rare for me to care about a character's looks as I don't put much value in looks. Tho I will say Emily does fall into I like her only for her look looks as I don't feel like I know enough about her. Vanessa is one I like her looks but dislike her character the most.I swear it wasn't targeted
She's a nice gal and all I just don't find women with big assets aesthetically pleasing. I prefer more modest-sized and leaner body types.
Fair! I mean I hated Vanessa at the start too because shes a bitch and a whore. But eventually I warmed up to her. She's pretty and fun even if a little crazy. As the MC's fuck buddy I think she's fine. Not someone I would ever consider dating.tbh I don't even like Jenny and Alex for their looks.

I thought that at first about Alex but I don't think she is Shallow at all anymore. I forget the context of the conversation until I replay the game. But there was one conversation that actually made me feel bad for her and to me it felt like she had some real character deveolopment. She went from someone who I think is slutty , swallow and probably a bit stuck up to feeling just like a normal girl with problems and uses her insta or whatever because it's how she knows how to deal with those issues and feel good about her self.Alex seems shallow and I hate the whole social media hoe she's got going on. That's the biggest turnoff for me. She isn't pretty nor particularly hot to me.
No. When a game is complete there's a blu banner.is this game completed?
The reason you see this so often is a psychological phenomenon called "Cognitive Dissonance". Basically, when someone's attitude does not align with their behavior, it creates this uncomfortable feeling called cognitive dissonance. To get rid of it (or to avoid it preemptively), either the attitude or the behavior has to change to be in alignment. If one's attitude is that these Devs are working hard and investing a lot to put out these games, but one's behavior is to take it without compensating them, something's got to give. The weak-minded, Incel-adherent cretins that you see constantly bitching that Devs are trying to rip them off are alleviating their cognitive dissonance by changing their attitude to one that aligns with their behavior: believing they are just taking advantage of people that are trying to take advantage of them first. Same kind of people who decide it's a women's fault that the guys' behavior doesn't get him in her pants.I'm really getting sick of envious people deciding a dev is milking their supporters.
1. Supporters might be supporting the dev themselves, irrespective of the product, or the schedule of releases.
2. When it comes to any artistic product there are both consumers and patrons.
3. People are free to cancel at any time. The Dev isn't holding a gun to their head.
4. High quality product deserves to be rewarded because it incentivises more high quality work.
5. People unable to create these games may feel it's easy for the devs to knock out lots of renders and code.
They're wrong.
6. Game development cannot be sustained in factory hours. It reduces the quality of the product. I've seen devs force thru
poor quality updates. Or even worse, try to please everyone.
7. The Dev does not owe anything to the Veruca Salts of this World. Who want it all and want it now.
They're the least desirable consumers of any product. They want other people to work to their needs.

It makes me sad for humanity.
I'll never get this. if a dev is being a dick, deciding they want vacations and to complain or.... frankly... anything i disagree with. I unsubscribe from financially supporting them. It's my choice to support. or not.... and then to talk about it on a piracy website where the products are freeIf people are being 'milked' that is their fault.
