Maybe he is introverted or is tired of it in his daily life?
At the end of the day, PS is his game and how he chooses to respond is also his own choice. He is certainly not obligated to respond or provide updates to anyone even if he was getting 50k a month. However... I stand by what I wrote -

a reasonable person would be giving out some form of communication , be it big or small to the people around him. Its really not rocket science to drop a communication to patreons - you know people who really believe in the developer's work.

Yes, that's just right. all the patrons ask for is one weekly update. just 1-2 scentences. I even talked with him about making it a ritual, like, the sunday news or something like that. It really could be easy.

This update he lost some Patrons again because of his lack of communication. It really is a trend.
And again... - Just one short info, 1-2 scentences, for patrons.

I'm still a supporter right now, because IMO it is the best erotic game i've played so far. But i don't see real value in supporting, if i don't know at least a little more than everyone (non supporters) else.

It's all how you look at your patronage.

I support to encourage him to keep making one of the best games I've played, not to get inside information. I support to reward him for the creative work he has put in, not because I expect him to treat me different. I support to identify that this is a quality dev with vision and purpose, not to affect his process.

If you look at your patronage as a pat on the back, a thank you or encouragement to continue, then you don't have to feel like you're missing out on value.

I would be pissed off if it takes more time than necessary and the content is little.
theres devs that are conducting this behavior, it takes forever to release and always very little content.
no matter if they post daily reports, I would still be pissed off.
I really dont care much about reports, sure, it nice to know, but if the content is satisfactory it means he works.
for me thats whats important, that the dev is working the best he can.
theres devs that are "social" they post walls of text, but always disappoint in the end. better use that energy into the game.
so, I dont want to change Paperwork, so far he has delivered, and lets hope he continue to do so.
you should support him for the "result" not his social skills. how much did you enjoy the game. thats the rating.

The thing is, a full month with no contact makes it hard to tell if they really are working "the best they can". I feel like even 2-3 sentences saying you did this or that, or even that you were too busy to work this week, should be basic courtesy on Patreon, especially if you're getting a 4 digit monthly income from it.

I mean, who knows - something could have happened to him due to the whole coronavirus situation. It's hard to say. But this happening twice in a row creates some red flags for sure.

I find it very nice to have people here, that know what "normal" people have to do. When "normal" people would post every week, you say Paperwork is not normal? Who can say such things, must be someone very "normal". unhappy smilie

This is becoming a recurring theme in this thread, and so far he has delivered. Maybe he'd rather earn less and have less pushy patrons. Patreon was afterall inspired by the old patronage system, where nobles and bankers would employ artist/inventors etc. mainly for prestige reasons and because they enjoyed their work, but they weren't easy creatures to control.

Yes I am sure ' normal ' people out there in real world don't surf porn, dream of incest / harem fantasies and don't communicate with other people as well. Happy smile

There is no part 1 or part 2. The game has days only. Or you ask about previos version with tag [abandoned]?

Paperwork logged in last time on Monday, so he is lurking.
as I already wrote, its his behavior, so nothing to worry about, he will post when he's ready for beta.
we can start worrying after 3 months without saying anything. so 2/3 left.

Well, non the less, even when he does lurk around, he should at least say "hey guy, still working on it. have a cup of coffee and relax a bit."
That would be totally enough. But he doesn't. and baka, i dont't really get why you are protecting this behaviour so much.

"PW is like god. HE decides in which way he adresses his followers and they just have to accept this fact, pay their fees and shall not speak up in such a heretic way."

thats serious fanboydom mate. Don't accept everythingblindly. I get why you are trusting him, really, because i do, too. I am still a patron. but we are talking about 1 freaking post every now and then. Hi sits right there at his computer... it is literally 1 minute of work.

To be fair to Baka, everyone supports a game for different reason. Some is 100% for the proof is in the pudding even if there are months of silence.

And while some of the recent comments may seem a bit hostile (mine included) , it is with the best of my intention of letting paperwork the possible seriousness of lack of communicating with his patreons. If it is like what some ppl wrote of him preferring lesser ' demanding ' patreons for more ' engagement ' at the cost of lesser support. That be fine.

If that is not his intention as every penny counts, well... the resentment is growing and his promises of more update news are becoming more annoying as empty promises. Its either you are in or not.
