When did you check... He makes 50-70k per month mate...
He only started hiding his income a year or 2 ago and it was at 70k per month...
Might have been another game I was looking at and misremembering then. I used to watch the graphteon for a lot of popular ero games before I just gave up.

... So like, is he really planning to spend the next 10 years reintroducing content that we already had? For the sake of fucking widescreen?
Obviously, it's to keep up the illusion that the game is still in active development so people keep throwing money at it. Nothing to do with widescreen. I don't think that was really the stated reason anyway (merely the assumed one, and jokingly) since having a look myself all it would really require redrawing the art and I suspect it was drawn in HD anyway and just cropped for the game, having worked with artists on projects before. They usually give you much larger sizes so you can easily work with it in production like with narrative framing etc even if it's just say a book cover.

It's a dumb reason either way.

imagine slipping into a coma two years ago, waking up and finding out this game has even less content than when you went under
Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change... That. Is. Crazy. The first time somebody told me that, I dunno, I thought they were bullshitting me, so, I shot him. The thing is... He was right. And then I started seeing, everywhere I looked, everywhere I looked all these fucking pricks, everywhere I looked, doing the exact same fucking thing... over and over and over and over again thinking 'this time is gonna be different' no, no, no please... This time is gonna be different, I'm sorry, I don't like... The way...

Call me crazy or whatever but i dont mind waiting and im happy that we will be able to play this game in higher resolutions and some of the characters also got improved designs, theres plenty of AVNs out there for me to play before this catches up to the old content.

That's it? All the work for just widescreen?
Isn't that huge waist of time? Cause who is looking at side borders when 100% of adult visual novel action goes on in the middle.
Dont tell me blank black side panel can prevent players from jerking off even with action going on middle of screen.
I could be missing a few things but yea I think that was the driving factor for the tech update lol

I'm living that minus the coma . I played the game that long ago , never looked at the news and comments , and expected today , noticing an update , that more content was added .

Of course , i should have expected instead a pointless remake , with less content than when i played it

It's the trick people like to use nowadays to milk their subscribers. The longer the dev time of the game the longer people "need" to support them by paying monthly or by release.

Anyone with any sense knows that with the amount of money this game has earned, updates shouldn't be taking this long to come out. This is a porn game, not a AAA studio game that takes years of development. Its point and click with choices. The game is being used as a means of passive income for the creator and the team, simple as that.

I get that people are free to do with their money what they want, but supporting a creator that clearly doesn't care enough to provide meaningful updates to their game is ridiculous. There's plenty of other games that deserve support, more than this one.

But it is what it is.

You didn't do anything wrong. You rewarded the foundation and the promise of more, but pulled out when you realized it wasn't going anywhere. You already beat 99% of patreon users.

Our issue isn't with patreon or support devs, it's enabling bad behavior instead of punishing it so people keep doing it. And guess what, it's a huge problem right now. The top 10 ero games on both funding platforms make oodles of money, some of them more than masterpieces like Hollow Knight, and have been in dev for longer to boot, and yet are nowhere near complete.

Many of those--games regularly earning 4k+ USD a month in some instances--haven't even had a content update in years.
True , but i do have issues with the concept as well . But that's mine own gripe , since everyone can decide on their own , how much they wanna pour into a project .
My take is that i absolutely refuse to fund games for years ... or at the very least i refuse to pay more for such games , than i would for a regular retail console game (which already often make it more expensive than steam or many indie releases) . A flat fee rounding up the game to such cost ? Fine ... Months or a year of support leading up to that amount ? Ok why not .

But there is no way , that i'm paying 5-10 dollars a month for multiple years

I can't seem to hand the dictionary over to Ms Bisette. Seems a little early for gamebreaking bugs!
