Neither have I, my thrust has been that people do need to keep in perspective the process of pledges when considering the structure and context of the criticism.



No, but that is the risk THEY are taking and theirs, alone. It is not ours to take on in our criticism of the work. And if a patron decides their pledge enables their need to say something, that is what their subscribers channel on the discord and patreon is for -- their pledge-supported benefit empowers them with direct access to the eyes and ears of the dev team. Here, DC has rarely communicated and this is not his platform for communication and on here no one truly knows if the person criticizing is doing so from their patron-position.

I know I'm preaching to the choir (meaning itsyeboii) on the following, but the millions on this site and the tens of millions across other sites get what we pay for (a free game that everyone has access to directly from the developer) and our criticism should be understood in that way (by us and from us).

You know as well as everyone else here that the complaints happen here because they know DC doesn't really look up this place and they actually lack the balls to do something directly by appealing to the patrons. Almost as if they are afraid the support would be cut and the game truly abandoned.

Funny that.

Load of bullshit. I would be more than happy if his patreon account got banned, and this game went up in smoke. As far as I am concerned this dev is a scammer, liar and thief. More respect to him, he found suckers who donate and made millions. But truth be told the entire model of Patreon leads to devs doing jack shit for weeks on end, and morons giving them money for doing jack shit for weeks on end.

Does not change the fact that the guy was paid (extremely well) for a product he failed to deliver. Fuck him.

kind of weird but eh, it's good to see dc cook because it reminds me of star citizen but for porn, with the cultists and everything :LUL:

we have a saying here: "too much hatred turns into obsessive love".

3 years and no new contents.

Then go and convince his patrons. Show some actual balls, man.

You're completely right. But like you said you're preaching to the choir. I wasn't really talking about the validity and effectiveness of criticism on this site to begin with.

All I'm saying is that I don't believe that the majority of people pledge as a "thank you" which sometimes gets thrown around here, nor do I think that those people should be expected to simply pledge as a "thank you", as it goes against the many implications Patreon themselves and DC put on display, not to mention common sense.

That's just something I can't help but expressively disagree with since it doesn't make much sense to me.

Meanwhile, the same people happily let themselves get taxed, pay tips and all that other jazz without even the slightest bit of outcry, even though that is far more compulsory (or outright not an option not to pay).

Don't you get it, NOBODY is allowed to like the things I don't like, especially not grown adults with free will and autonomy! And anyone who doesn't agree with me in all things concerning my personal opinion is a stupid Poopy-head and they are obviously of lesser intelligence. Never mind the fact that I (very loudly) make my opinion know in a place that historically been shown shown to have no Impact on, (nor even shown to have ever been paid attention by), the person who I'm mad at! This way, I can continue to complain and just generally be an ass and not have to take ANY actual responsibility for actually following through on my opinion in any significant way! DUH!

Hello could anyone please tell me where this scene can be found?

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Is it from the sph mod?
That's not in the game, vanilla or with any mod.

You know sarcasm is an advanced style of humor, right? You might be overestimating a lot of people.
