i guess we will wait the public release, i can't afford to pay 50 dollars
I meant more as in "When the full release gets leaked by Piracey" as I don't do public releases ^^
Honestly glad I stopped supporting. Paying out money every month and getting nothing in return was getting old.My comment was to state that AB has been finished for awhile. You stated that you would be more proactive with OB&B. It hasn't happened for one reason or another. I wasn't a fan AB and a big fan of OB&B, Plus a supporter. A year without an update doesn't take long to read between the lines.
Hope to you and your health you can continue with this game.
Yeah, good luck with that, better you than me.From the time I started supporting DoV last year until now, pretty sure I've spent in total worth more than 2 AAA games already on his Patreon. So far what I got is a short story. Not complaining about the short story, it was so damn good. But so far until now from the time I subbed, nothing on OB&B after Autumn was finished. Recent updates on the Patreon says the end is almost near, but a new update says a major path of the story needs to be rewritten.
I just want a regular updates on the game, not cryptic posts about characters I don't even remember anymore. I'll continue subbing, but I really am hoping for something that would make the whole expense and wait worthwhile.
Firstly, please understand, the incoming wall of text is not an attack, or a reprimand, or even intended negatively, and is not even aimed specifically at the quoted person but is more of a general statement to inform anyone who follows, talks about, or supports creators.I just want a regular updates on the game, not cryptic posts about characters I don't even remember anymore.

Well said.Firstly, please understand, the incoming wall of text is not an attack, or a reprimand, or even intended negatively, and is not even aimed specifically at the quoted person but is more of a general statement to inform anyone who follows, talks about, or supports creators.
Patreon and its kind are not places you go to buy finished products. It's a place you go to support creators you enjoy so they can have the time and/or money to make what they want to make in their own way without being beholden to deadlines or commissions or corporate executives. For some reason very few people seem to understand this. Two triple A games would have had budgets in the hundreds of millions, hundreds of trained, experienced employees putting in thousands of manhours all getting paid a fulltime wage working on them often around the clock, while also probably being a creatively bankrupt derivative work with a thin veneer of the latest graphics painted over it, and ALSO getting rushed out the door unfinished with a slew of bugs requiring a slew of patches, if they bother to fix them at all.
Most Patreon accounts are a single person, and there's only so much work a single person can do, especially in a creative sense, and even if they want to work, writers block, interruptions, and emergencies can all get in the way. As a creator myself who struggles with ADHD and depression, I can say IT AIN'T FUCKIN' EASY, we can't all be Branden Sandersons who snap our fingers and churn out three novels a year.
If you feel like what a creator is making isn't worth however much you support them a month, then either stop or reduce your contribution until that changes; do NOT try to goad them to work faster. The only effect that can possibly have is either sapping their will to continue making things at all, or them rushing out things of lower quality to appease people.
TL;DR: Creators are people struggling with an ongoing creative process, not giant corporate machines that can churn out finished products at precise intervals no matter what, please do not expect them to.
I mean he was definitely doing something. The only reason this game isn't already at 0.7+ is because he was busy with his side hustle The Onryo, which was a tremendous waste of time in my opinion.If you feel like what a creator is making isn't worth however much you support them a month, then either stop or reduce your contribution until that changes; do NOT try to goad them to work faster.

Hey can you tell us if it was worth the 26$? I want to get it but I'm on the fence considering the priceI guess I'll just take the $26 now, make my year worth subscription worth a little, then I'm out for good. Say what you wanna say, all this time waiting, this is still just a BETA. Some of his subscribers who's been there longer than I do, don't even get the release too. Full release might even be in June or something.
3 posts above yours actually summed it up quite nicely. Also, this is entirely my own opinion, other people might be offended by this. To me, it isn't worth it. I can't even think what the Alpha looked like for those $50 Patreon, given by the Beta state. Far too many 'lore' than the sex. If you guys are here because you love the story, then maybe it's good for your reading. If not, then it's not worth it. Even the sex scenes looked like being rushed. DoV probably will rewrite large portions of these parts too, looking at it. Maybe that's why he keeps saying this is just Beta, and not full release. I honestly thought Beta should already be quite close to actual full release, which isn't the case with this one, but it's just me, I'm not an expert.Hey can you tell us if it was worth the 26$?
