Why would you reply to my post though?Where is an update? We're starting to lose people.
You forgot to mention that we are making this product famous, so it is not yet clear who owes whom for advertising. )Pirates getting real comfortable demanding content. Wonder how many are actually pledged to the patreon![]()
I'm beginning to suspect that something is wrong with my sense of humor.Why would you reply to my post though?
I'm not a patron and I don't have direct contact with EvaKiss, so I can't anwer your question. I'm just like everyone else here waiting for it PATIENTLY. I suggest you put your energy somewhere else productive rather than constantly asking for an update. It'll be updated when it's ready.
I'm not getting what it is you want to happen.I'm beginning to suspect that something is wrong with my sense of humor.
Are you paying now ? So stop the complaining if you are a patron you can go and complain there don't start shiting her while playing her game for free godIs she delivering now? She's not even putting a effort on her weekly status reports
Yeah, there's also another option that we don't take in consideration: patreon gives you the option to postpone payments to the patrons, I know because I am part of a group with a patreon and we offer video shows, since we'll not be able to post anything in september since the editor has covid, we postponed every payment until october.If you check Eva's posts on Patreon, you'll see little to no comments of people complaining about the lack of updates.
The number of her patrons has been relatively stable over the past months:You must be registered to see the links
Most users of this forum get to play the game for free and they can voice their opinion if they want to, but only her patrons have the legitimacy to complain when an update gets delayed or postponed. They can also stop supporting her whenever they want to.
It's not surprising that the vast majority of her patrons don't do either of these things - Eva Kiss has proven time and time again that she's reliable and trustworthy.
What kind of video shows?Yeah, there's also another option that we don't take in consideration: patreon gives you the option to postpone payments to the patrons, I know because I am part of a group with a patreon and we offer video shows, since we'll not be able to post anything in september since the editor has covid, we postponed every payment until october.
Unless some of her patrons denies this, I can suppose she's doing it.
This is essentially the same argument bar managers use to not pay a fair wage to amateur musicians.Many people look very strangely at copyrights and so on. It's like we're living in the eighties of the twentieth century. Piracy has not been defeated anywhere, in any country of the world. And for twenty years now,the only way to do something with piracy is additional content, from the author's autograph to additional content. Everyone has long since come to terms with piracy and think about it as popularization, advertising. If you wrote a hit song, how can you get money for it from every audio station where it plays? But in return, you will become famous, you will give concerts and earn money on this, and not on the fact that someone in the car listens to a USB flash card with your song. So here the patreons get the goods in the same way as the pirates, but the patreons have privileges, such as influencing the plot or getting information about the development of the game. Pirates stayed in last century we not pirates we are FREE TO PLAY gamers.
How many people who find the game available to download on this site actually go on to become Patrons of the game, especially when they see the number of Patrons Eva already has?You forgot to mention that we are making this product famous, so it is not yet clear who owes whom for advertising. )
Wrong on both accounts. The influence that Patrons have on this game is (almost certainly) minimal:[...]So here the patreons get the goods in the same way as the pirates, but the patreons have privileges, such as influencing the plot or getting information about the development of the game.
You must be hella bored to find this debate interesting.ah the good ol' debate between the dev's white knights and the horny pirates whenever an update takes long is always fun to read
can't say for privacy reasons, but totally not porn relatedWhat kind of video shows?
Pretty much this. Never hurts to remind some people of this again and again...patreon is meant to support artists creating content
it's not related to a finished product, that's how kickstarter works
VN games work well with patreon because they can be released in episodes
if ORS updates are taking longer to create because its complexity is increasing, than it's fine and unavoidable
at the end of the day, the patrons themselves will decide if the artist is worh supporting or not
People are "supporting artists creating content" not for the sake of supporting them, but because they want to see or experience a product of that creativity, better yet a finished product. Very few people pay money to developers just so those developers could eat, sleep and be creative at something. They want something for their money.patreon is meant to support artists creating content

I hope you are right and the complexity of new updates is a real reason behind delays and a lack of productive activity on Eva Kiss's Patreon. But as far as I remember, back then when Eva was making GGGB there was a strict schedule that she followed even though later updates were much more complex than earlier ones. Such delays are something new.if ORS updates are taking longer to create because its complexity is increasing, than it's fine and unavoidable
at the end of the day, the patrons themselves will decide if the artist is worth supporting or not
IT TRUE . if your pay her patreon every month and new update too much delay more than half years ....People are "supporting artists creating content" not for the sake of supporting them, but because they want to see or experience a product of that creativity, better yet a finished product. Very few people pay money to developers just so those developers could eat, sleep and be creative at something. They want something for their money.
For example, would people support a game on Patreon, if they knew that it is going to be abandon in a couple of months? I doubt that. They want a completed game, not instantly, but eventually.

The problem is, this situation is nothing new. We can find many games, such as Milfy City or Female Agent, where it took more and more time for developers to release new updates (or they created an illusion they had been working on the game by posting useless crap but actually doing nothing) until those games turned into milking machines that suck cash from their patrons.
It is a common situation on Patreon when hard work brings success, success brings money and money brings laziness and complacency.
