As others have mentioned, you really need to pay attention to how developers interact with the community they create.
we are in the same boat..Dear SS fappers,
do you want to know why so many people keep complaining about release dates?
Seriously, don't you know it? can't you understand it?
Well... just take a look at the OP: August 25th 2016 (yep, check again: 2 0 1 6).
3 development Y E A R S... and the game is... 45%? 50%? 55%
So, guys, what do you think about it?
is SS a indie porn game or an artist's lifetime masterwork?
DC, dude, are you building the Great Chinese Wall? are you writing La Divina Commedia? are you joking, dude?
I'll tell you, guys: I restarted from scratch the last Diane 0.17 update 4 times because of bugs and bugfixing updates. I haven't completed it yet: I didn't complete the reworked Diane's storyline because I had enough of playing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over the same damn fucking scenes and reading the same damn lines every damn update. Endlessly.
Will I play the Jenny's reworked storyline (my favourite SS' character by far) when it comes out? honestly, I'm not so sure...
If you guys don't like how long the game's been in the making, or don't like DC, are jealous of the money he's making or whatever else you can think of to complain about, move on. No point in wasting time bitching and moaning about a game you don't like by a dev who's too slow to your liking, so do the rest of us a favour and just move on.
I hope you're right. Because as you so rightly say, if they don't get their moneys worth they move elsewhere. We are arguing the same point, perhaps from different angles
What if all the patreons take that answer and move on? will the game get finished?If you guys don't like how long the game's been in the making, or don't like DC, are jealous of the money he's making or whatever else you can think of to complain about, move on.

There's plenty of 3d copy/paste games that get nearly weekly updates, with writing like they'd been written by Borat, but no bugs to speak of and a schedule that's quick enough for you guys, so go and support one of those instead.
So is yours. It's their decision and you would be clever to not waste your time what might happen. If no one cares about DC anymore then no one will care about DC anymore.^^ Wtf he's not god, someone else will take his place and create something else that gets the same hype.
I know I'm fine with the schedule, like the product, and like how DC does things with a level of transparency few if any other dev does and I'm a patron. I've got absolutely no clue how it's supposedly "short sighted" to point out to a couple of complainers in here, who're not patrons I'm guessing, to move onto something more suited for their requirements.
im not saying l hate DC or jealous..im just feel like the game making take more time each year..thats all..and why no one voting for save compatible?If you guys don't like how long the game's been in the making, or don't like DC, are jealous of the money he's making or whatever else you can think of to complain about, move on.

Savegame compatibility is not a voting issue, and the reason for lack of it has been explained. Plus, with every new update you can download a save game that gets you right into playing the new content. And sure the updates take longer, since the game keeps getting progressively more complex, so that's a given.
hmm,DC should just ignore his patreon for a moment and do what he want,im pretty sure he want to add save compatible and some more..but because he have 50k,he need to hear his patreon..and ignore all of it

The proof as they say will be in the long term pudding. Backers only take constant communication so far if the constant communication is "sorry it took so long".
becuz unlike when DC noticed that if he didnt close some options during each poll(the said option for another update on content like Diane Debbie and Jenny so he could work on other contents like the teachers upate)he didnt pulled this shit anymore,and brought another option totally unrelated with any fixing the old code(which was Eve's update,since her content is almost like Judith,almost null),to make this worse,that is the part where the biggest con from SS shine,when he opens the option without really letting the option more important right now as the ones avaiable in the poll,he risks happening the same shit everytime,and i say that becuz all the time the patrons get a vote for something they just prove they are shitting about geting the game easier to work with and faster to conclude....as i said before,i stopped funding SS becuz of that,i do not try to make people give up on funding him,i just dont do it anymore,and justify why...
hmm,well you have good points,but sometime people just impatient,most of the dev will face that,for example,Waifu Academy..people complaining and hit him before because the update take too long..then the update out,people praise him like crazy..every dev should know this is the consequences when they creating the game..well,im not a patreon,so most likely i will just read and ignore it
