They've been there for around six years. They are surviving quite well. I have read the comics, and I would be happy if that was the sort of thing that they did. But I live in the world of "what is", not "what I want to be."
I'd call being on par with the famous "color dessert doctor" after a 10%+ loss of subs a lot better than "quite well".

To be fair, NLT's Patreon subs are down from a long term high plateau of around 13.5k to now a little over 11k (a little over 10% loss) in the last 9 months, but it's showing signs of stabilizing. Incidentally that more or less coincides with the "bonus content" phase of TGO. But even with that drop, NLT is surprisingly still estimated to make nearly as much as the famous "color dessert doctor" dev. So yeah, not really hurting, except in some hardcore inc*** fetish fanboy's imagination.

And with the new UI in the next game, casual gamers will think "oooh new eye candy" and I suspect sub numbers will start trending up again, unless something goes horribly wrong.

And that's just from Patreon.

If nothing else I'd say dropping Patreon and going back to his roots will hurt many times more.

See here is the real problem... many don't even realize just what the fuck they are talking about... these guys ( let's name them Dr PinkCake and NLT ) are cashing in millions... and the poor little incest freaks who can't even find a real goal in their life hand out " free of charge " life coaching tips for those " lucky " devils who through their effort made it to the big bucks... now this is pretty far from the real " real big bucks " but we are not talking about tripleA game devs...

So yeah back to the roots where there is only complete livelihood loss and satisfied incest freaks... tough choice really if you ask me whether or not they would go down that rabbit hole ( as far as I know the doc has never had anything to do with incest and there is no intention at all so whatever the fuck goes on in some other threads is just beyond human logic :rolleyes: )

There is no way they are gonna survive on Patreon. This game hurt NLT enough. They need their own website with their own rules so they can actually live up to what NLT freaking means. No Limits Taboo. This is all limits and no taboo. If you guys read the prequal comics you would know how freaking good they can actually be. If not bowing down to the man..
Huh? No way they are going to survive?
NLT is the 7th highest supported Patreon adult game developer. With an estimated monthly income of over $25k per month.

People need to accept incest is not going to happen. It doesn't matter how much it's asked for. You can bitch and moan about it all you want. NLT has a very loyal fan base. And he's stated in interviews that the feedback he gets is very clear. And the games have been curated in a way that pleases the larger portion of his paying supporters

plus sponsors are less likely to touch a game that has incest content.

It's been said many many many times. Patreon is the safest, most backed platform.

I fully agree.

NLT has also clearly hired a marketing team / agency. Twitter posts are more frequent than before.

NLT has also said in interviews about hiring someone to manage the 30 plus voice actors for SoTS.

This plus the isometric view, better engine are telling me that NLT is really banking on SoTS being a banger of a game.

I get that TGO wasn't the same as ToN. I think tons story and vibe was more compelling than TGOs. And ToN had a stronger cast. So a dip for TGO is understandable

The other thing about NLTs patreon dip can be equated to the world's economics.

Peak ToN was lockdown for many of us. Many counties paid people to stay at home and not go out. People got bored and ventured onto these types of games to keep up entertained.

We have since moved on and gone back to normality. And the world is now in a recession. With many people cutting back on spending. One of the first things to go for a lot of people would be patreon, twitch subs etc etc.

So I don't think too much about a loss in patrons.

If NLTs patreon support continues to dip during the early part of SoTS development. Than it could be a sign that the community is bored of the content. But I doubt that will happen

Prefer alia looks but Melissa is better overall if you include personality, Alia is annoying.
I know it's all subjective but I'm sorry, I can't even agree on that. To these eyes, even if completely based on looks alone, Melissa is leagues ahead of Alia, who doesn't just behaves like an annoying idiot, but actually looks like an ugly idiot.

But to each their own. This just means more Alia for you and more Melissa for me. Cheers.

Not what I want it to be. What I know they can do and it's a lot better than this bland vanilla bullshit. Just get your fucking ball sack back. This is watered down pussy bullshit. Be NLT! How fucking hard is that? You are going to bow down to the man and the all mighty dollar? Just to make money with shitty incoherent stories that make about as much sense as an asshole with tastebuds. I'm sorry, but I was there when NLT was fucking NLT and this is not them anymore. Might as well put the game in a computer and say what does the man want? How can I sell my soul and make a buck? Easy by making a shitty game he hates. I was there when NLT was actually good and this is so far from it. It bothers me when they can be the best, but instead..this.

And yet, here you STILL are ...

Why?

You don't like it? Fine.

Feel free to leave.

There isn't even a door to hit you on the way out!

Safe journey - you don't need to hurry back.

Quite rude, don't you think ?

To be fair, i might just going to remove the game once it's finished. Although i might thinking to draw a few Fanart of the girls before i do it.
