I'm curious why Patreon would be a better option than Subscribestar. From what I've seen You are held to less rules there than on Patreon. I concur with others that moving to subscribestar might be the better option. What I'm curious about is the argument of why you would rather stay on Patreon instead. Like if it seems like everyone is saying Subscribestar is the better option cause you have more freedom there, then why would you stay on Patreon? If there is some info here I am unaware of that can answer this then by all means let me know.

Patreon is just the biggest membership platform. So it's easier to get people on it. Like how it's easier to get people on google vs bing.

blackmail, & non consent are a complete no-no on patreon, sleep sex also causes for a ban on patreon, yet still many games have it [Midnight paradise, milfy city, etc. ].. the point is a creator is only fucked & reviewed when his page is reported, because patreon doesn't actively check for guideline defaults on any creator, once the page is reported patreon has to take action and review the game.
Hunter's method include blackmail, rape, drugs use... which are against patreons tos

WWG ought to switch to SubscribeStar, no use staying with Patreon and having to rewrite most of the game and having to walk on eggshells for future releases. Their ridiculous rules just stifle creative freedom.

Is the vanilla game about Landlady/roomates and the uncensored patch brings back mother/sisters ?
I clearly remember Brena/Sterling pretending pretending incest porn circa chapter 5.

That's valid. Though I have seen other devs here only use Substar and they seem to be doing fine. plus if you already have a following and let them know you are switching platforms, many will probably switch over as well to continue support. And some are already stating that they will.

I've seen a lot of people say for him to move, but in all honestly, how many people here are subbed right now AND will move over to subscribestar if he made the move? That's his biggest concern, that he'll lose a lot of income. It's easy to tell him to move, we just have to wait for the game, but he's the one taking a financial hit.

I for one will make the move if he does. It would also allow him to use some of the darker ideas he said he couldn't use, using patreon.

I would definitely support him on subscribestar. Just refuse to give patreon anything. I think I said something like this months ago. Pretty sure I'm not the only one who refuses to use patreon. Maybe he should make a subscribestar account to test the waters.

He can do what the developer of AWAM does(no I'm not referring to the worthless updates spread over a span of 30 years), make a "Shell game" which complies with all the Patreon T&Cs and email the download link of the actual game.

its better to make an account in substar then if the income is equal to the patreon or maybe he can just have the two of it just to increase his income its like 2 birds in 1 stone

is there anything stopping him from having a Subscribestar aswell as Patreon? that way if Patreon cuts him it won't be a mad scramble to set something else up.
