Understood. The deal as offered simply doesn't feel right to me.Dude, download the latest update and send it to us please. If I was making dollars, I swear I'd have it right now.

There is no update since season 1 ended.Dude, download the latest update and send it to us please. If I was making dollars, I swear I'd have it right now.
Only new thing is the Steam release, which contains a codex. Other than that, there is nothing new yet.
No-one said anything about the lower levels including everything from the tiers above.
I simply said that I expect all tiers to provide access to the game.
I mean, who in their right mind is going to pay to be "a supporter" for a product they can't even play?
Don't know what you've been looking at on Patreon for those few years. "The more you pay, the earlier you get it" is standard MO for literally hundreds, if not thousands, of these games. Lowest tiers get it last.

I know, but I want it for the VN mode. I didn't play part of the game and the last content update because of the sandbox.
Well, if you want it, buy it. Don't have money? go work. Ask your parents or wait for a whale to show up and they buy it for everyone.
Download it and play it here (if it has the new added VN mode)

Wow, you're smart. I don't know how I didn't think of that. Not everyone is lucky mate, I wasn't born in Europe or the USA. I'm already working but I don't earn dollars or euros and in the middle of the economic crisis it's barely enough. Also let me remind you that this is a pirate forum, if you want to be an honest man, go somewhere else.
Right, why would they, so why do they?

True, this game offers the immediate release option, and one step down, you can get the release 3 days later. Further down, benefits don't include access. In my experience, the benefit list means exactly what it says, and no more.
One dev does allow lower tiers to accumulate their donations up to $14 and then become eligible to download. But that is explicit too. No explicit statement, no benefit.
Nope. I can think of but 1 game that does what you describe(DPC, not surprisingly), every other game I've seen every patreon tier gets the game eventually. A lot, like this one did before it went on steam, do public releases after their various tiers gain access.
Im annoyed about the update not being available here as i think 15€ is too much but isnt there some kind of steam policy that the dev isnt allowed to offer the product at other places for less money compared to steam?
I this case the dev wouldnt be able to offer it to lower patreon tiers anyway

yeah once it goes on steam has to be the same price set there. I think I bought it for around $11 or 12 since most AVN's go on sale when they are released I forget if that was the case with this one I just knew I bought it the first week

That's what they say, but there are all kinds of games on Steam that are not the same price through Patreon/SS, some still go through the normal tier system, and even still have "public" releases. Not sure Patreon is considered a "store front".

I don't think a date will be posted for awhile I think he is only 1-2 months into Season 2 development
After all it has only been 11 months since the last update.haha your username makes me want to rewatch B5 been awhile one of the better characters from the show

as far as I know it never was a secret hope was putting steam as his #1 focus and was a hobby till recently , so I don't count those 11 months against him for Season 2 since as far as I know he didn't really work on Season 2 much if at all.
Page 1 says the release date for v 9.6 here was 8 May last year, and it appears that he has been collecting patreon payments for a good while longer. A few dev's have been able to make their game a full time job, but for most it is a hobby. No, I think, if he has been neglecting this game for 9 months, we should call it that. If the dev were cultivating his player base, he could certainly make this his full time job, like dpc with bad.
What I see is that he put together just about the best game on f95 for season 1, ended it with a drop dead cliff hanger, and then took a nap. I am not convinced there will be a season 2 at this point. It is true he put up his Steam page 27 Feb this year. But f95 says the game is a lot older than that.
The origin date for this thread is July 2018, so that tells us how long he has actually been working on this. 9 versions in 5 years (up to last May). That is almost 2 versions a year. If you include the .6 with the 9, it is almost certainly 2 a year. Yeah, I'm feeling a little disturbed. And if I had been paying him patreon for all that time, I would probably be stomping around the room. But, yeh, I do understand that game development does take a lot of time. And the dev actually owes me nothing at all. So at six months, I will still be defending a dev. At a year, I am feeling stressed.
