Interesting, please tell what "would" benefit game development? Paying more money?
What do you specifically mean by system optimization? I don't pay and haven't played the game since last few updates but you bring out interesting points. But since you seem to know about what DC and his team has been doing, please explain what has gone into this update that has needed 6 months? I am sure a lot of the people here want to know

If you have and idea to accelerate coding 、posing 、writing , maybe you can share or communicate with the developer , I think they are willing to know ( you probably wanna say : I'm not the one who got paid 50K per month , so it's not my duty to figure it out how to optimize this game , even if I know how to do it ,but I just don't want to share it , then I gotta say that's your choice and I totally respect that . Maybe you gonna become one of the SS developer and get paid ,after you show/share ur superior coding 、 writing 、posing or art 、 animation skills to them .
I think people directly say/judge DC is become greedy or scam or something is not objective enough.
We gotta judge SS from more aspects
ART : DC got the talent , it's not a issue
project/business manage 、 planing 、 operating : not good enough , the developer need to optimize
this too.
But this is DC's first game project , ( and he have plenty of project after SS)
we can't push him too much
it's too harsh for him
he have to learn how to run a project properly from this experience
He just need time to deal with it
If he have the same issue during his second project
then now we can judge him very harsh (Cuz we assume his ability to run a project has improved)
and we can use more harsh standard to look at it
I think DC really want to make game , for his joy and interest , not totally for $$$$$
and it easily to decrease people's passion when $$$ get involved , it going to confuse them , am I doing this for $ or just for hobby or I like it .
The worst scenario is DC get enough $ and he don't want to develop and more , he is done with this shit.
And all we got is an incomplete version or SS , things that you expect won't come true any more .
this is the bad end if you criticize too harsh and push him too mush.
According to DC's daily stream he already make a lot of content in the future
if you want to know you can follow his daily stream on Picarto
you might join the raffle and be part of the game
DC already did Ms.Johnson rework , Judith rework ( including her pregnant ) ,Iwanka ( rework)and her step mom Melania (work) , Principle Smith rework , Beth (Judith's mom) rework , Erik rework , both Diane and Debbie bathing suit , Eve and Grace rework and both pregnant , Nayda (gangster boss's girl - 0.20) , Odette (new girl in 0.19 ,including her pregnant) , a man like jesus , Angelica 、 Cassie 、Annie rework . theater rework , Eve's house expansion (living room , garage , Eve's room , bath room) Mayor rump 's house interior , Roxxy and Crystal's pregnant (Preliminary composition )
that's all I got from his stream , maybe more but that' all I observe from the last 6 months
I'm not a coder or part of their team so I can't answer any Coding stuff
I think the Developer need to reassure his patreons more often by teasing what they are doing or how is the project going ? ( at least post something new twice a week)
this can get users's appetite ad feeling
