he literally has the best writing in progongraphy in general let alone games like what do you want your usual UWU DIKI SO SHLONG ILL STEP ON IT from other hentai games ? koda might be duplicitous or lazy but a good writer for what hes doing at least lol
Just because Koda's writing is a step above your typical porn game doesn't mean that it's good. He can't write actual character arcs or interesting plots developments to save his life, and while he did try his hand at worldbuilding with the emissary in WG, the result was really nothing special.
He's also extremely insecure as a writer (which is why he came on here to defend his own writing skills that one time), he's afraid of his scenes being too similar to each other given that he often reuses terminology and has a hard time creating different speech patterns for his characters, and it leads him to make use of these really bizarre metaphors sometimes during sexy scenes that can really kill the mood.
By far his worst flaw though, is his incapability to write a truly endearing or simply interesting character. You may think that in a game where you are being dommed by female characters, these don't have to be "endearing", but you'd be wrong. If you want to see examples of this being done well, go play MGD. Also the only girl in ToT that even comes close to feeling this way is Khulan, ironically.
Until Koda's characters feel like they actually exist his games' worlds independently of their purpose in the story, and until their personalities can't just be boiled down to "mistress that wants make the MC into her slave", you really can't justify calling him a good writer.
He's a 6.5 out of 10, even among porn game writers, he's a one-trick pony that gets carried by his erotic scenes which can be wildly inconsistent at times, and outside of those he's just mediocre as a writer as of now. And given how much other stuff he's got on his plate, I don't see how he could find the time to improve.

I was waiting the many "hmmms", "footnosis" and that "vanguard toes" speech of Lilly :ROFLMAO:.
But seriously william32, you need more porn indie game writing knowledge if you are saying that Koda is the best, as stated before, try MGD to know better.
now i am curius, what do you think is the best foot domination writing game that you could recommend to play?
if we exclude Monster girl dreams

Don't know if you consider a VN (worst, a MTL one) a game, but the foot fetish scenes of Msize Ikusugu and Koi to xx no femdom are great, for Textractor standards.
If we are talking femdom in general, my vote goes to Succubus Prison House of lewd demons (I know is more hardcorish but is great writing) and Lust Grimm.

It's a fair question. I would assume it's because they don't think $2 (or whatever currency) per month is worth getting upset over. Or they like having discord access. There is even a chance some just like feeling entitled vs us peasants and thieves who don't donate. Or they fear that Bo and Koda will stop producing if their Patreon numbers drop.

Maybe some of the Patreons on here will share their reasons? Though I am sure if any do, they'll be brutalized by some of the more vociferous members here, so I wouldn't blame them for not voicing their reasons.
It's like $2 a month for a pretty good discord server honestly with a really good community on there. I can get the game early (yeah I could pirate but I'm fairly well off financially so why would I). I don't know if its because Ive been dealing with delays my entire life with HxH and Berserk or what but a porn game being delayed by even a year really isnt that big of a deal to me.
Thats what $24 and I still get my moneys worth out of the Discord.
So yeah I'm on the patreon. Do I wish F7 would be out already sure. But I personally really really like the side games so I don't see that as a delay.
Feel free to ask any other questions if anyone really cares just thought since people were asking I'd give my take on why I'm on the patreon

I am legitimately curious. I figure many Patreons stick around for the discord community. Back in 2018 when I was a part of it, that community was rather haughty and plagued with people RPing, but I can only assume it's improved since then.

I think what gives me pause, is that had I been a Patreon since I discovered the game, I would have donated over $60 to it, equivalent to a AAA game. That's a bit much to pay for roughly 10 hours of RPGMaker gameplay, especially considering a lot of that gameplay is grinding.

I suppose there is a difference in discretionary spending between us though, as I am admittedly a budget gamer. $2 per month isn't a lot of money, but this game has had a three year cycle now, which is the lower end of a AAA game with a new IP. Granted, much bigger teams work on those, but the quality is also much higher.

I don't know, maybe it's a false equivalency but it seems to me that ToT should be much farther along than it is. For $60 and a 3 year development cycle, I would expect a completed, relatively bug free game. ToT isn't even halfway there yet and seems to be in development hell with it's developers rapidly losing interest in it. I'd be interested to know what the Discord members think though, hopefully through a relatively civil discussion (admittedly rare in this thread).
