Never before have I seen so many people complain and whine about something they didnt pay for and arent forced to try. The over entitled self indulgence is strong here.

I see it less as complaining and whining and more as a lot of people who were at one time completely enchanted by this guy's game - it was legitimately the best of the budding genre 2 years ago - and now, after 5 months, we get reworked scenes... That were fine to begin with... It's fair to be disappointed. That's what I see, a lot of disappointed people.
If you really dug this release - I'm very happy for you.

You're not allowed to express disappointment in things you aren't forced to try? Ridiculous statement.
I bet you also never before have seen so many people complain and whine about TV Shows/Series they didn't pay for and aren't forced to try.

There's a point where it goes from expressing disappointment to entitlement though, and many have crossed that line.
I really hate it when I reach this kind of point, I tend to give developers the benefit of the doubt. But I'm really getting sick of this shit. I would have alot more respect had DC just said 'Fuck it, I've lost interest I'm done. Then maybe farm the source code to someone else to continue or leave the project unfinished. It's alot less infuriating being teased for nothing than an honest up front admitting of the project coming to a halt. I had alot of hope for Summertime Saga. But the last update put it on thin ice for me. This most recent one I'm amazed this was ever deemed acceptable for release.
Usually updates are supposed to improve a product. Not regress. V.18 I was looking forward to and I can't help but to wonder how in the world this took 6 long months to do. Yes I know the game is technically free but, DC is getting $52.000 PER MONTH for this, and I fear the patience of the audience is waning, and it's been very generous so far.
For my personal opinion and from what I see I'm not alone here. Jenny has become an insufferable cunt here. I wasn't even interested in any potential for new scenes because the character has become even worse than before. Before she was a selfish conceited bitch but mellowed with time and became less unlikable. In V.18 she has become completely insufferable and the MC submits and just puts up with her bullshit because she has a nice body... It's infuriating to watch, let alone play. this isn't wish fulfillment it's masochistic at this point. I personally would rather see her suffer some real misfortune rather than her getting her way all the fucking time. I don't know what the fuck DC was thinking with this overhaul, But Jenny went from irritating but bearable to completely insufferable, it got so bad, I had to change her name to Cunt.
Meanwhile other characters whom are alot more likeable get virtually ignored. Eve who is actually quite pretty and pleasent. Judith, finally getting her beyond a tit grab and a hand job would have been nice. Maybe Rhonda, Hell even the MC deciding to experiment with Kevin, [wishful thinking on my part. I'd love to see Kevin bottom for the MC.] Or even The MC and Erik also experiementing with gay sex, would have been far preferable than what Jenny turned into after 6 bloody months.
The game is supposed to be partly wish fulfillment, when it becomes a chore it repels players. Especially with a risky premise and it being a porn game, it's a very tenuous ground. I want to have faith in DC and Summertime Saga.... But at this point, I'm ready to give up on it and just wonder what might have been.

Great game overall but damn, 6 months for just a revamp of a story line and mod support at the amount he's making? I hope for his and everyone's sake 18.5 has much more content and is released quicker because people will jump ship in droves.
See, you guys are phrasing it as though people are just rationally expressing disappointment in the direction a favored company is doing things. If that were what is happening here, then I'd be more than fine with it. It's not.
What's occurring here is a bunch of people, who are not paying for anything regarding a product, leaving comments along the lines of, '5 months and THIS SHIT! He greedy milking people money bad man!'
That is not expressing disappointment. That is throwing a childish tantrum. Admittedly, there are some few being rational adults about their dislike of recent updates, but they are by far the minority.
What a shitty fucking update. I am not even sorry for those patreons anymore. Pathetic! Hahaha
Your opinion about DC and others are not a fact, just an opinion like ours. So if someone thinks that he's milking he maybe correct or wrong, just like your opinion. As long as people doesn't insult Dc or anybody else, they're free to express themselves. So stop pretending that you're on some high ground and thinking more rationally than others.

What the fuck are you talking about? Two posts up and the a dude wrote a perfectly rational explanation of what he doesn't like. Your bitching is worse than the actual bitching.
The only thing I hate is how bitchy Jenny stay throughout the entire thing. She's just a constant cunt. Before she grew into a semi-kind person. This one, she's just a bitch at all times. It's annoying.
And, by the way, I am a patron, so that statement is completely fucking invalid. Not only because patrons browse this forum too, but also because you're allowed to have an opinion even when you don't pay for things.

There are many posters effectively calling the devs thieves and then making claims that are untrue. That's not rational criticism, it's douchebaggery.
Seriously? the route ends just like that? Unlike Roxxy's content which only took 3 months and be complete,this feels like a rushed route with no ending and removed scenes. 3/10

I see the thread is still on fire. Luckily I'm not into goths/emos, but I love pizza MILFs, so I'll see you all when 0.20 is on the way!
Remember boyos: whatever you think of the project's trajectory, it's been on this path for a long time now -- anyone who is a patron today is already okay with the current release schedule, and accepts it as a fact of life. Their minds won't change because of forum fury or because of the same trend (of release gaps increasing) continuing. Nobody will change anyone's mind here or on Patreon because humans are stubborn by nature; don't get too frustrated if the debate here seems to last forever!

Years of self importance and a oversized ego are the best teachers for that. It's so sad to watch but at least we have a goal to not become the same. <3

Great game, was one of my favorites, however I wish there would be more of an update. And I really hate that you cannot use saves, but oh well.
I do have to mention that if the Patrons are unhappy they could just stop donating. Everyone has a right to bitch or not play though if they do not like something.
But people who feel like they have the right to tell others what they can or cannot say should just stfu, that is not your right, everyone has the right to an opinion, even those that think they are better than others.
