My main point is that all that Patreon money aren't all thank you's, they may be according to Patreon's TOS but actual people donate money to see the game get continued development and eventually get completed.Entire point of Patreon is to be donations-based. Whatever random dev does to paywall his junk doesn't change that. My narrative being what Patreon states in their TOS makes me win any fake debate or rebutal you can come up with, and I don't even need to do anything. Welcome to basic reading.
Those who "pay" are indeed entitled to things : bonus Discord channels, votes in polls, a day earlier release on private links. Not the game itself nor anything the milkers have been crying about for years
I'm not here to argue that DC is a milking scamlord who owes all Patrons a finished game by now. But like I said before, SS wouldn't be nearly as developed, DC wouldn't have as much creative freedom with his Kompas Productions and above all he wouldn't have as much money for himself without the continued support of his fans, if I was in his place I'd be thankful to the Patrons and everyone who supported me, welcome to human decency.
Saying those donations are thank you's for his work which is made possible in the first place by the same thank you's is an insincere way of presenting it. Lazily pointing to the TOS and using that as an anchor doesn't change this.
