You responded by asking me to take my opinion which you disagreed with elsewhere.
Which is great if that is what you like to do. Your philanthropic nature is commendable. Not all of us, in fact I think it would be fair to say that over 90% have the kind of disposable income it takes to do that with any regularity. So, good for you.
A little pointless, don't you think? That's like asking if you have a better product delivery system than Amazon let me know. As if anything (other than the government) could do anything about them. These patron sites are rich and getting richer, so they're like the AR-15. I may think they're destructive awful things but I'm not stupid enough to think they're going anywhere. Just because something completely changes the operative paradigm of a culture does not mean in any way that it was overall a good thing. What would be 'better' IMO would be a return to personal accountability and perseverance to take a passion for something and see it through to a positive result. That takes more than money, a lot more. It takes a personal commitment to stay the course. Feeding cash to the uncommitted and complacent is what I would guess is the primary reason there are over 4000 games listed on the latest updates page with ABANDONED tags on them.
I just disagree with that. Speaking out about something that has strongly damaged creative follow through by fostering a culture of complacency, laziness, greed and no personal accountability is IMO a responsibility.
You are correct, we disagree. I am also fine with that because that's what makes the world turn. I respect those differences and wish you well.
