SubscribeStar. It's kinda like Patreon only it allows incest. theres alos itch(dot)io but odds of DC going there are slim to none since they have a free option that (i think) is mandatory, the dev just gets to select what is free

That wouldn't be a reason that DC wouldn't try to move nearly 30,000 subscribers from one platform to another. If Subscribestar requires a free option, DC could simply offer (as one creator I am aware of already does): "Free Tier. Access to public posts only, no early access to releases and no ability to participate in polls." The simple fact that all his current subscribers aren't able to use Subscribestar would be one reason; another is the organization and planning involved in such a maneuver is ridiculous.

Subscriberstar more user friendly when it comes to content restrictions? Patron restricts specific genres, that blows. :mad:

SubscribeStar is more open for the moment only because they have a fraction of the audience of Patreon. Patreon were fine and dandy with taboo content until they got big enough to start needing/attracting investors. It was never formally announced, but with a bit of digging you can find information on Patreon's

So long as SubscribeStar stays small they'll stay free, but once they need money they'll turn like the rest.

At this point I have basically given up on this game. It would be fun to play the full game, but considering that this game is taking forever just for one update, it's not worth it. Especially, since there are a lot better games that at least have regular updates.

Eve and Grace are siblings. Patreon does not allow incest content that is simply for titillation. Subscribestar does.

Couldn't they put out an incest patch on Patreon? Or is that not allowed?

But two sisters having sex to a guy not related, isn't incest.

Patreon doesn't care. As long as it looks like family, it's against their rules. They didn't allow stepsiblings to unban games, either.

Just to add, as far as I'm aware payment processors (mainly Paypal and Stripe) played a huge role. So any platform that wants to ulitize paypal will have to adhere to similar standards as does Patreon now. Hence Subscribestar doesn't offer paypal at all and it's also the reason why for example Onlyfans doesn't offer Paypal payments.

So Patreon basically had the choice to stop using Paypal or to ban incest, underage content, etc. - they chose the latter. Probably for good reason, as they definitely cater to a more casual audience in general.

People desire new content to masturbate to but the development team hasn't released an update since October 2022. It is still months away from any expected update release. It could be Spring 2024 or later until there is one. Some people are angry, sad, confused, in various stages of grief. They attempt to obfuscate that it is strictly because of their own desires by cloaking it under the guise that they are "thinking of the poor, abused subscribers" and through accusations of the developer grifting.

I still find it strange that Paypal and Stripe have issues with adult content but Visa and Mastercard don't. Paypal has a

(they'll let you buy physical content like sex toys in the US, but you can't encourage people to use it) out of an apparent fear of being caught making payments to human traffickers, so I suspect it may be down to however the company is structured to deal with banks across multiple countries and currencies. Maybe Visa is just big enough that they don't give a fuck :ROFLMAO:
