I haven't read german in years tbh. Needed some help from google to make sure about the parts I didn't get.
As an indie game dev (non H, non announced, I am still working on the tools to make the game, using unity) I know that there are still plenty of good actors, but it's just so easy to be a bad actor nowadays, heck even some good devs end up scared about releasing a new update because their game ended up being more popular than they thought and then they got scared about getting criticism if they made a subpar release (under people's expectation but people's expectations rose too fast) and they just stopped updating.
anyway the patreon thing is the same strat as gym companies or every other subscription based stuff that just hopes you forget you are subscribed
