What is the point, being on a pirate site, to think how much money the author makes. And tell others how they should spend their money. People who pay know what they are doing and are not dumber than those who advise not to pay.
Some have the opportunity to pay, while others do not. But why complain and raise this topic? In this thread, users get links for free.
The author does a pretty good job, given the specifics of the game and art. In addition, the author has established a permanent workflow that allows you to release a new version once every 4 months, of which up to 1 month is spent on fixing bugs. This process has been unchanged for several years.
Not many authors can boast such stability.
If you compare with other authors, you can find many examples where, with much higher revenue, releases are fewer, and the quality is also not always at the level.
Given that the game has copyrighted art, this is generally a separate category of games. There are authors who make the same art in the form of comics or just a pin-up, without any games. Issue 1-2 pages per week and have a much larger income.
This game was originally conceived with one character - Rogue. And when the author was already thinking of completing the game, it was the patrons who insisted on the continuation. Accordingly, when the "foundation" of the game was originally made for one character, it took a lot of work to create a workable version with the ability to add new characters.
Any game until it is completed will have bugs. And the more serious the changes, the more time it takes to debug bugs.
In the case of this game, the author does everything necessary so that each new version is stable. Again, not all authors do this. In many games with large payments, bugs are not always eliminated even in the final version.
Accordingly, the author makes the game while he has an incentive = he is paid for it.
If someone does not like the game, he may not play it. If someone cannot pay, let him not pay. But why tell others what they should do. If no one pays the author, the author will end the game. Therefore, on the contrary, you need to thank patrons that such a game exists.
The paradox of pirated sites. Pirates are called pirates because they take for free what others pay for. And at the same time, these same pirates urge not to pay. And if you don’t pay, what will the pirates take?

[Ren'Py] "a flash game"?
What does the information (on a pirate site) give how much is needed or not needed to pay the author?
If people pay 1$, then they are not able to independently calculate or decide what to do with their money? If say that for a year they spend 12$ and for 5 years 60$ it will open their eyes, because without this calculation they did not suspect what "gigantic" money they spend? (you also need to consider that most patrons, like the author himself, will never read this)
People came to the pirate site to get what they need for free, no matter how much the author makes money.
In addition, the work of the patreon is designed to work with different patrons. Any author has several types of patrons, which differ not only in the size of the contribution, but also in the frequency of payment.
Some patrons pay monthly, some only at the time of release, some once a year. Thus, the payment formula 1 * 12 * 5 = 60 does not apply to all patrons. Most people can afford $ 1 per month per game. Well, those who can’t afford it just need to come to terms with this fact.

You ask me "what is the point", and at the same time you drop a freaking wall of text, on an adult gaming forum. lol You really wanna talk about time wasting? You, the guy that keeps making photoshopped memes for this thread? xD
He defends with such fervor and writes a wall of text, it seems that he is the dev of the game.
I'm sorry for anyone who thinks otherwise, but half a year working on a game, and not delivering anything other than bugfix is a shame, there are countless other good or even better games than rogue like evolution, which take every 1 or 2 months to update your games.
As I said right up there, I don't care how the patreon spend their money, it's not my money, I just think it's funny to keep giving money to not receive anything in return, even if it's 1 $ or 3 $.

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The police, who investigate crime, and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

I just asked you, “in the wall of text” why you write the same thing for several years, every time you are surprised that the author makes the release for exactly 4 months and regularly write about the author’s incredible income of 1 dollar per month.
I wrote 1 time, you wrote several times. But you did not answer the questions.
I can answer yours. I do not want to spend my time on a pirated site, reading posts that are not related to the game and will not affect the work of author. My post is only half dedicated to you. In this topic there are several users who raised the same topic as you (about payments to the author). Accordingly, if you add up your posts and posts similar to yours, a decent number of posts will be typed. And their number will far exceed my "wall of text"
In addition, you yourself wrote that you are annoyed by the discussion of the work of archivers and other identical questions, and that is why I turned to you.
I am for the topic to be discussed only the game. And not who pays how much, how the computer works and other nonsense not related to the game. All that does not concern the game is spam, including your posts about 1 dollar, and my posts on this subject.
I made memes instead of a "wall of text" (as in this case) and, again, in response to several meaningless posts. (To express an opinion, you can write text in a post, or you can make a meme, where part of the text will replace the image)
Also, as I said earlier, I can remove all my memes from this topic and not do them in the future. And I already deleted some of the memes and messages (at least 40 of my posts) in order to remove spam.
And if I need to delete all my posts, then this will be rightly only if such posts are deleted others.
and now specially for you, a summary of the essence:
Why in the topic, to write the same thing not related to the game and aimed at those who are not in this topic? When this is written several times sometimes by the same user, for example, I have a desire to ask him once about the logic of such posts.
If his patreons would reduce, thath will give him something to think about and maybe start doing something. 500 page by the way, just saying
Yeah.. He would start thinking about quitting. Great plan, dude! But you can always unsubscribe from his patreon. No wait. You would have to be subscribed first. Must be hard to enjoy pirated games. Let's come up with a better plan to ruin an honest man's livelihood.
Don't even think about stopping to make memes - this thread, SU and SS one are the best ones this forum - this because of the memes and two others because of the whiners, come on, you can't leave us hanging like this, I mean, this is the only thread I visit on regular basis, to check on the memes.
As to what you were saying - shitposting had always been and will always be a problem, if you want to see it as a problem - as long as there is a crowd surrounding any project, whether it's a porn game, a recipe cookbook, an art project, a tech YT channel or anything else - there will always be shitposters. People like that will not provide any constructive criticism, will never point out your mistakes, they are not interested in that - they only thing that they want is to tell that you suck. There probably is a reason for this, because such behavior is old as the first creator, but I don't know it - what I know is that if you are trying to do something and your work is accessible to a large enough audience - you'll face such people and will have to deal with them. And there are two ways that you can:
You can ignore them - the problem is that you still need criticism in order to be better and if you are not listeting to any feedback, you are not listening to good feedback, which you, as a creator, require - in order to get around this you can work closely with a group of people, who will provide you with actual criticism - the problem with it is that this people can be biased and don't see things that are obvious to others, but it's still better then nothing.
The other way is to harshly moderate the resource you use to present your work to the public - if resource, like this one, do not have any repercussions for shitposting, then people who do that for fun or to vent some anger will appear - and then some other people will see that loudmouth idiots can get away with that behavior and will mimic it - and the number of shitposters will just rise with general population, polluting any discussion. You can assign moderators or moderate yourself and give timed or permanent mutes or bans - the notion, that meaningless and harmful behavior is punished, usually serves as a buffer to make shitposters go somewhere else. The problem with that approach is that you can, voluntarily or involuntarily, create an echo chamber, where people with valid criticism are afraid to speak, because they think they will be perceived as shitposters and banned.
So the point - I understand what you were saying, but to change this situation either Oni must have a control of this thread - which he doesn't have and won't have - or moderators on this website must be interested in changing this situation - which they don't, therefore this whole discussion is pointless - things won't change because nothing is done to change them. As to you trying to know the meaning behind actions of such people - it's pointless, they have none. So basically you can relax and memepost back, fight fire with fire, you won't win, but atleast it's fun.

True dat - Variety is the spice of life after all: Be it in female crumpet to enjoy, be it in opinion, be it in shitposting.
While I can personally disagree with an opinion voiced here, I can still enjoy some cringeworthy meme material and find valid points in a diverging opinion. If we all had the same attitude and kinks, life would be pretty stale after all.
I wouldn't go so far to say there is no meaning behind people voicing what they do in any of those threads actually: I'd reckon it's multi-faceted; Either rooted out of a general frustration, out of a divergence from what they'd hope it would turn out it be, unhappiness with development cycles or simply for something as petty as annoying someone else. As a rule of thumb, there is always reason in actions, even if we can't easily spot it or it is so miniscule that it's not worth mentioning in the first place.
Though that's just my explaination for how things turn out to go within those kinds of threads, when there's barely any update happening for whatever reason, people have less incentive to voice questions - as they've all been answered multiple times already - and thus frustration and questioning of the validity in the dev's behaviour start to crop up. Been there, done that. Just look at old pages on the Summertime Saga thread where people go nuts shortly (up to 1 week) before an update comes out and you hear them just vent it in there. Done it myself actually.
With that though, I'll however refrain from going on about something less to do with the actual game and would also ask that the thread should probably steer back towards the actual game, questions and the likes, away from philosophy and argumentation on a personal level, last thing I want to see is this thread getting locked or worse yet, nuked.
Oh boy, I'm not sure where this notion stems from: for a whole bunch of people, game development is not just a passion, but also a job, either part time or full time - especially if you are on a subscription site like Patreon and ask for monetary compensation - and I reckon Oni isn't much different here: Patreon money from game development can range from a small bit of extra change to a sizeable income to actually rely upon and life off of. If the numbers of patreons were to reduce for whatever reason (not completely disappear, mind you), the first instinct would be to see where the issues lie, how to improve the situation and keep at it, to not lose valuable income to actually see something that is more akin to a pet project come to life (He probably needs to eat and live somewhere after all) not to go with a full scorched earth approach and willingly nuke the income out of spite towards a part of the community. Oni probably has more leeway in that matter given that he is also an Artist that does commision work and thus has multiple sources of income, but I sure as hell wouldn't just drop it because of some dwindling numbers.
For anyone that bothered to read, did anyone say anything useful and game related in the last few posts?
Bug Report:
Start of the game, avoid going to class to meet with Kitty/Frost
Bang Slut Rogue in Public so that you're caught by Xavier
Chi Plan
Ask Xavier to be lenient on Kitty&Frost
Kitty and Frost are now in rotation, you can interact with them but you've never met them
Because you never met them, you aren't able to access their rooms
Also, X23 doesn't come back because you technically still haven't met Kitty.

Yet again, TLDR
Just from the first couple of rows I can tell you that you fail again: i wrote on monetization TWO times, both in a span of 2-3 months. Both times discussion was not atarted by me, I added my point of view/opi ion on the matter. But I guess "forum" is not a place to post opinions, right?
omg did all the shit talker jump from waifu academy to this thread. what does it matter. by the end of the day does it hurt you. NO IT DOES NOT. at this point i wont be surprise to see this tread get lock to.
