he is earning more than 20,000$ with so much money he should work even when he is tired or pause the patronage if he cannot work on the game even tho i don't think he is tired he is milking his patrons like a pro scammer imo.
the biggest milking machine from devs is Summertime saga creator . 60k per month . with these resourses he could start second high quality project .

No one is milking anyone. The creators don't decide how much money they receive. If they receive a lot, it's simply because the supply for this kind of content is low. It's a good thing, because it's an incentives for developers to increase the supply.

so u dont agree that with 60k per month he could do more than just one update in 3-5 monhts

In a perfect world, I would agree with you. Unfortunately, the world is full of idiots, and ICSTOR definitely takes advantage of this fact.

The value of something isn't set according to your perception of how much work is required. It's rather set by demand and supply. There's a lot of demand for these porn games but not a lot of quality supply, so these devs reaps all the cash. It's a very good thing, because it's an incentive for other devs to start making quality porn games.

Just as a matter of interest, what makes a game qualify as quality to you?

The only problem I see with ICStor and phenomena like these is that a lot of that money could have been put to better use with other developers who deliver better quality. Two years ago this game was top notch for the genre, today it's a bit above average, but nowhere near the top. The last release was actually mediocre to say the least.

As it is now, many creators struggle while consistenly pushing out better things, but they don't get the backing that would mean they could improve even more.

People support DC because he does the opposite of what ICSTOR does. DC regularly updates his patrons and discord with progress on the project with streams and a legitimate progress bar (Art, Posing, Writing, Coding, and Bugs). Plus, hand-drawn takes much more time to make than 3D animation, and yet the updates are consistently good with metric buttloads of content. Also, it took nearly a year for ICSTOR to release one lackluster update, but DC managed to chug out several in the same amount of time.

Personally, I'm mainly curious about if it was luck or skill that put him in the position he is now. He produced high quality renders when the competition was minimal and has kept the patreons despite others surpassing him in quality. Did he see a market opportunity where he was early, or was it just luck that people wanted to pay big money for the things he was doing?
My personal opinion is that it was a combination of good render work and the heaviness that the lewd aspects built on great pacing. The writing was decent but he was able to build something very edgy and perverse (I don't mean that in a negative way). The sort of progression with linda in particular had wasn't so slow that you sort of zone out of the writing but it wasn't so fast that it destroys the payoff. Moreover the lewd situations themselves were very creative.

The only other game that does these elements similarly in pacing and creativity that I've played is Summertime Saga (I'm sure there is a lot more but I'm kind of new to lewd games in general).

Sadly he lost his touch with his base performance he did on Linda.... check out Caroline.
She started in a similar way of paceing as Linda... but in the latest Update the paceing is all over the place and not related to itself in many if not most cases... the story feels forced most of the time and the minigames don't fit the game at all
