I literally give no shits how much their making if I'm not one of the ones paying. And the people bitching about it clearly don't understand what patronage is.
We undestand just fine. Problem is don't pretend you got sick or you got your balls crushed in your vice etc, etc and then just not deliver anything. At least Ocean invests the money in hardware.

I have been a history buff for life (even have a Master's). I clearly DO know what patronage is stretching back 2k years.
But the way these middle-men payment sites, such as Patreon, use the term "patron" is a con.
I asked a Dev directly. Are subsribers about funding the Dev specifically or about a specific game ? He replied that oc it is the game. Since all subs pay monthly, they deserve monthly content. btw, other types of content providers (political and financial analysts, sex workers, et al.) do so.
That is, content that is canon vis-a-vis a specific game. Wallpapers that are non-canon and often off-topic Discord chatter don't qualify. So the monthly payment schedule simply does not reflect the present situation where it is common for VN Devs to take many months between updates.

It is fair to say "pirates" should take what they can get and be happy about it. But quite a few pirates are ex-subs and maybe future subs. To reduce everything to "mere" money is wrong unless ALL constructive criticism is deemed worthless.

The matter of a Dev's monthly income is a nothing burger most of the time. But if a specific Dev--hello Radiant--seems to drop updates if/when his Patreon revenue droops, that topic is a fun conversation for this thread.

Hello all!
I am going to try to keep this brief, as feeling well enough to sit upright at my computer is unfortunately short-lived, as of late.
As most of you have probably noticed, the last few weeks I've been rather absent from Discord. I spend a lot of time there when I'm working or active at my PC, which sadly hasn't been the case of late. I also did not post May's wallpapers in the month of May, which is the first time this has happened since we released the game (rest assured, I'll post them as soon as I'm done writing this, and I asked Alorth to make something extra special to make up for it!)
As I mentioned in the latest progress report, I was having some health concerns that I thought were behind me. Let's just say... I was very wrong. Over the last few weeks, things have taken a pretty significant turn for the worse. That said, I don't want you guys to worry. I apologize for being private about this, but what matters is I will be fine. I have an appointment with a specialist coming up, and I'd like to reserve going into details until more is known.
With all of that out of the way, I just wanted to say thank you guys for having the patience of saints while waiting for CH5's beta. Unless a meteor lands on my house, I'm going to try to wrap it up by the end of this month, and I have every intention of working twice as hard once I'm better (which hopefully will be soon) on CH6. In addition to working twice as hard, there's a lot of fun and exciting CH5 related posts I have been itching to share here on Patreon for quite a while.
Love you guys,
SirD
And here’s the most common excuse from devs! They must be all cursed lol, they are all sick and they always use it as an excuse. And they expect his subscribers to believe it. Disgusting
