That might be true when downloading a bootleg version from a site like this but surely NLT subscribers must get regular updates incrementally? Considering how often updates are made to NLT's enormous RPG games partial, incremental updates are the only sensible solution as far as updating goes, logically speaking. I'm seriously considering becoming an NLT patron because I like his/her/their work so much but wouldn't be happy about having to download the same game, with slight alterations and new material added, monthly, fortnightly, or however often the author(s) decides...This might be true for other games but not for LE. You always had the option to download the updates only and/or download the F95-compressed version. Saves are all transferable between OS platform, compressed and non-compressed version.
time...
... after time...
... after time...
... ad infinitum!
Surely updates direct from NLT would have to be supplied as compressed archives which can be decompressed locally and their contents copied into the appropriate directories/folders of NLT games, locally, either manually or automatically by the forthcoming Windows installer? Depending on your level of subscription my bet is that patrons, when they log on to NLT's Patreon page(s), would be presented with a page of links to the game's first iteration followed by a series of updates in zip/7zip/rar files which can be downloaded and installed by gamers to update NLT games, on their computers, at their leisure.
That's the way I would do it and the only one that makes sense to me.
We'll have to see.
I think I'll send NLT an email and inquire directly what the score is as per updates to his/her/their games.
If what you say is correct I won't be parting with any of my money and will simply download bootlegs of completed games as and when they become available.
