It has EVERYTHING to do with it. The game is completed. Period. Full stop. If you never download ANY DLC at all and just play the game as it exists, it's a full, completed experience. It has a beginning, middle, and end (several endings, actually). How can you look at that, compare to any other ACTUALLY incomplete games in this site (to keep to the biggest example, Summertime Saga) and say it's "not complete"? That's just laughable and I can't believe I have to state something so obvious. You can't possibly be that dense that you think a developer continuing to support their completed game means the game is suddenly "not complete".
Again, one game is a couple months old. The other is EIGHT FUCKING YEARS. There's no universe in which Shawn's Story would outnumber or even be on par with the main release. "Flopped" is a fucking opinion, my friend. You have no actual idea if it sold or not, because you're basing yourself on numbers from an 8 year old game vs. a couple months. You can't actually be this dumb, come on.
The "correct" move is the one that brings the dev money. Since you're on a pirate site, I assume not only you didn't pay for anything, but you're also not privy to the developer's finances. Do you think anyone sound of mind would continue to pour time and effort supporting a product that not only ISN'T profitable, but also easily pirated? Lol.
Your reading comprehension is sorely lacking my guy. Redo 5th grade if you can, get a hold of some of the fundamentals.
Like I already thoroughly explained: The game could have been counted as "completed" 5 years ago, it could be counted as completed with just Bree and Sasha in it. Whether they stopped the "main game development" after 2, 10 or 30 girls doesn't matter because the gameplay formula is the same. There is not a specific number of girls at which point the game can be concidered done. No matter what, it's going to be an arbitrary decision, because every girls storyline is more or less narratively independent and there isn't some central narrative. Andrealphus could have kept going with the base game until there were 50 girls, or stopped after 5, and the game would have played the same. Do you get it now? Please say you get it now, it cannot be this fucking hard to comprehend.
You want stats backing up my statement?
Alright, here is Andrealphus's patreon graph for the last 5 years. Notice if you will, the steep drop in revenue that began around the time when Mike content began to run out in late 2024, and has been dropping like a brick throughout 2025, the year in which practically all that has been released is Bree and Shawn content. The Shawn shit clearly isn't drawing an audience.

It flopped because it came unto the scene for a creator with a massive fanbase. Do you know how many Nsfw-devs would KILL to have thousands of paying patrons waiting for new content, at the launch of a new game? Any new game with a half decent concept from Andrealphus should have been a major hit. And yet, those paying customers have evidently been increasingly leaving through the backdoor throughout the entire development process, because this shit doesn't appeal to them.
So if the correct move indeed is the one that makes the dev money, clearly EVERYTHING they have been doing in 2025 is not it. By your own admission.
And for the record, I WAS a Patreon. For about half a year in 2024, when the FAFOW content was in full swing, and the devs actually worked on content that the audience liked.
So in short: quit yapping, baby boy. You are factually wrong about every single thing you say.
