I thought it was a pretty funny joke.
Can you blame them? The actual information is behind a paywall.
I'm guessing the whole giant, multicoloured head thing is supposed to represent the big and colourful imagination of a succesful Patreon creator? I'd like to see what higher earning Creators got. Does it scale with earnings? Like, I'm picturing the no. 1 creator gets a head that's like 10 times the size and fills the entire room.
I honestly think it kinda fits with what's Patreon is about. At least it's something very individual/handmade by someone who is partly funded through patreon and not something you'd mix up with any other milestone or "award" out there. While Youtube's play buttons are certainly more practical, this is kinda uniqe.
That thing costs maybe around 500-600$ (the fuck I'd pay so much for that) and the package seems very cheap.
Thats one creepy award what the hell.
Here I'm only doing what was left because one I don't see the point of stuff that's done even after it's split up and rebalanced it's still done. Two that's about another 20 screenshots I'd have to take and I don't feel like doing that.
Good Lord, how do they still have so much to do? They still have to re-wire:
They are essentially remaking the game so expect 5-6 years of development including 1 to 2 years of milking. 2 years has passed so we have 4 more years to go.
At this point it really does seem like DC should actually give some kind of estimate of how much time it's gonna take, or at least a ball park. If all of those routes move at approximately the same speed as Jenny and Debbie's routes, we're looking at literally several years from now before this tech update is done.
My understanding and I can't find the post that explained it but rewiring is rebuilding the route so it flows correctly one scene into the next, so they needed the routes to be reposed first. Jenny and Debbie started getting rewired in late May-early June. Posing task only get moved to done once everything is done whatever that means they've mentioned in several monthly updates that <Blank> is 100% reposed but the posing task isn't closed out or even moved into the in progress section yet, same with coding only Jenny moved to in progress before moving to done, Debbie, Bissette and Judith all just went from do to to done. I also know that Stray and Sploosh have said on stream that trying to fix the code has really slowed down a lot of the work because to quote Stray "Huge chunks of the game only work on accident" "That some patches have had three or so different coders try to fix the same bit of logic missing the fact that it'd already been fixed in the past." and that other chunks are almost unworkable because someone did everything as needlessly complicated as possible to show off just how smart they were.
I apologize if how I worded that was confusing he was saying that in regards to how the current public version of the game is, the working on accident is what him and Sploosh are fixing that conversation came up when DC was teasing them over how tired they sounded on stream. They told him that they'd spent over 10 hours the night before trying to fix the code.
That sculpture is cursed. It will haunt me in my nightmares.
