I really don't understand the reaction to criticism for Saddog. Sure, it's his game and he doesn't really owe anything to anyone but he promised an update on June 19th or 20th "depending on testing" (and he made that promise a couple days before those dates, which together with the wording gave the distinct impression the update was ready) and he's been silent ever since. And it's not the first time something similar has happened. I am not going to be a hypocrite and say that if he'd given an update everything would be ok, people would still complain (welcome to the internet) but this pattern of making unrealistic promises and then going silent is not a good look, especially when you contrast it with the approach of someone like SAZ, who has no Patreon and therefore no financial incentive and yet goes out of his way to keep people informed.
The funny thing is that people can't imagine how much trouble patreon can cause for a dev of a game like this here, why they don't leave patreon is another topic, and i'm pretty sure that if SAZ would have a patreon and would offer his mod there he'd be in a lot of trouble too.

yeah, the last thing SAZ wants it's patreon. If you plan to have a lot harsher topics in your game(like the explicit rape in one of SAZ optional routes), it's better to have a different method. I'm not very familiar with those site, but there is buy me a coffe or something? that's probably a much better for a mod.

For a full game, I don't know if there is any well known site that will support freely all of those topics thou.

The problem with the other sides is a) that there aren't as many people around who would support someone and b) that they aren't as reliable with payments as patreon is. Don't know how it is with buy me a coffee but they are for sure a lot smaller.

It's probably not a good idea to depend on Patreon much longer. If Owen Benjamin wins his lawsuit, they are going to be out of business. SubscribeStar is probably a better way to go at the moment.
Owen Benjamin won his lawsuit. Patreon lost, the judge decided against them, one of the most epic get woke, go broke stories...fuckers deserve it. Thousands of people are already in the process of following suite. Patreon has 2, maybe 3 months before they're gone, axe has been dropped. I hope Devs pay attention to this, they'll be up shits creek if they don't switch platforms soon.

Look up the story, Patreon just lost MAJOR culture war lawsuit and faces the most EPIC get woke go broke ever.
