Sunk costs fallacy strikes again I guess. I honestly don't understand how the world works.
You start making a game, get paid a lot by patrons, start slacking off or willingly scam them, people complain and pulling out resources, do half-assed work for a month and everyone content for the next 3. Once in my country, bread makers started to speculate with the prices due to issues with flour, and all the people got so pissed that we stop buying bread for weeks until they bent the knee and regressed the prices to normal. Also, wouldn't it be better to deliver a product and developing a good reputation, by the time you start your next game, you'll have a great track record and maybe people will be willing to pay even more plus newcomers that know you have a good work ethic?
I've seen a lot of people, even here, having been burnt with by a dev and vowing to never ever finance another project again.

we need new faces in the genre. The current batch have no vision or desire to further this degen games. Currently there's only 2 games I'm following and it's almost done. The rest? pure garbage.

Oh please, do recommend. The only ones I've never been disappointed with are, Second Chance, Goodbye Eternity, and the god-all-mighty Love Sex Second Base which I followed ever since Andrealphus released the the first (and by the time only) two characters.
The dev lacks ambition because for them it's enough to get pay, and the supporters have no standards because they will accept anything thinking it will get better later on, it's the perfect image of the video game industry

By 'finance future endeavors' do you mean 'send Mini-DC to college? Cos that's pretty much all what's going on here.
It's wrong to call it 'milking' when a creator profits from his supporter's inability to comprehend the business model they're paying into. For all the more content that was actually promised as part of contributing (meaning: nothing), his backers might as well have just taken their money and lit it on fire. If he was promising to deliver a certain amount of content by so-and-so date, and failed to do so time and again, that would be one thing. But his backer page very clearly states that in exchange for the $$ you are only promised certain perks regarding the content when it's released. Not that anything would actually be released. You'd just get like some sweet wallpapers or something.
So I continue to say, more power to you, Mr DC. You have found the glitch in the Matrix.
If you like RPG games Siera Lee has made some very good ones and she is almost done with her current game.
this was the first porn game I played back in 2016 and to think that 8 years later it is still not finished is just funny. Even cyberpunk 2077 didn't take that long lol. this dev just saw the hundreds of thousands of dollars flooding his bank so he decided to prolong the development time and get more cash. Such a waste, it got so repetitive and boring. 2d game with unrealistic characters and vanilla sex? yea that was a hit in 2016 but now it is just a prolonged waste. garbage.
Just a few thoughts on “What other people like to do with their money should not be your concern in any way” argument:
Problem is, remaining DC supporters actually prevent both themselves and others from getting new content. Normal dev/supporters interaction goes like this: we give you money - you give us content. You stop giving us content – we stop giving you money. As long as there are people ready to pay dev for doing nothing, he’ll do nothing – simply because he has no real incentive to behave otherwise.
This isn’t rocket science by any means, but somehow DC fanboys still manage to not get it.
The game has huge potential for content expanding - both for non-developed characters (Judith, Ronda, Lucy etc.) and for developed ones (like threesomes with mom/sister, mom/Roxxy, Roxxy/Crystal - you name it). If it wasn’t for DC fanboys, all that could have been in the game already. There are lots of people, myself included, who are willing to pay to see that done – but as long as the fanboys keep simping, it wouldn’t matter.
In short - it’s ok to be stupid (and I actually mean it - I don’t think being stupid is a choice), but as long as your stupidity is getting in other’s way, you might expect some criticism.

Those people you're referring to aren't on here defending DC, they're just smart enough to know when they have no control over what he does.
Dick riders, cocksuckers, fanboys, apologists... I'm sure there's other names used, but all of the name calling is a waste of time.
This endless posting about how others should stop paying him and if they do, the punishment will light a fire under his ass, and he'll give you what you want, is pointless drivel.
You're on a site that takes games and distributes them for free to everyone, while talking about how other people spend their money, when 90% plus on here would NEVER pay for any of these games to begin with.
You minds well be talking to yourself in the mirror, because it won't do a thing. Try tracking down all of the Patrons and see how that goes, when you try and convince them to stop paying.

So, I was trying to mess with the coding, just to see what I could change, but when I decompile the pyc's in the saga folder, edit it, and compile it again, the game doesn't read it. It also doesn't read it if I leave the py file in the folder either, so I was trying to affect the variables in the rpy files in the src folder. it looks like some stuff may be coded behind the scenes to have other characters in some locations, so I wanted to try to unlock the Pizzaria to see if Maria was coded there or not.
Does anyone the format for the code to unlock different locations in the rpy files? The closest I can see is when it unlocks Mia's house and the school after talking with erik or unlocking the rest of he location after french, bu I can't figure out who to write the variable I want to change.

I do realize that; if I was writing it for them it would be less rude.
It is, in fact, more of a reflection - I was trying to understand why I'm so irritated by them, formulated it for myself and posted it here in case someone was having the same question.
Let's face it, this thread is becoming more of a therapy group anyway )

It's been like that for a while, some discussions, some asking for the incest patch over and over, but mostly venting.
As for your first post, there's a lot of things that could be changed if people just stopped paying for it no matter how bad it gets. Going without a specific porn game is just a lot easier than going without bread for weeks, like that other guy mentioned.

Thread needs to be closed. Not like there's going to be any discussion to be had when the next updates (whenever) are just going to be the same shit with different sprinkles on it. Fact is, thread won't see any form of new conversations until after the content has caught up (if ever), so might as well put up the chairs, turn off the light and close the place down.This thread needs the abandoned tag again,that seems to be only thing that motivates DC to work

Closing the thread won't make people feel better about it or stop any of the bitching. It'll just spread it from one designated area into like 37 somewhat related threads.
Not a great plan imo.
