i don't pay 20 $ by month for a 4 minute gameplay...

there is a lot of good true video games for 20$
Exactly! Even the triple-A game sells only for $60-70 these days and it offers at least 20 hours of gameplay~! Paying $20 for only 2 updates and 10mins of playing is just too damn much~!

People should also consider foreigners when criticizing piracy.

I've subscribed to NLT for a few months in the past. Problem is that currently USD is 4.7x BRL. 20 dollars becomes almost 100 reais, which is roughly 8% of a minimum wage (1212 BRL). It's simply too much for a 5 minutes gameplay, like mentioned above.

If we consider the US's minimum wage of 7.25 USD for 172h/month like Brazil, that would be 1276 USD - thus the patreon costs only 0.4% of that.

I make a lot more than a minimum wage - but I doubt many of you would pay ~100 dollars for a subscription like we do here comparatively, regardless of how much you earn.

Nothing wrong with pirating or paying later on via Steam etc... but people comparing an indie developer with a multi-billion dollar company are uneducated brats that never have heard of economies of scale.

Well, considering this game updates every 15 days you still on a high note. There are games like a wife and a mother, guy releases the game every 8 months that lasts for like 1 min if you hold ctrl to skip dialog with no sex scenes and the price is like 30 euros, I mean... priorities right?
