$20 is an insane paywall for a game that isn't even original art.
Yup i've read that and that is what really irritates me because this is not how you attract new patrons, which often happens because games end up here on F95. But if the dev decides to go that way, then this is his decision and he seems to do well for this kind of game, which is honestly pretty suprising for me.sure the dev can paywall it but he decided to then also strip what was available down to barebones and so we have less content then the previous version on top of him keeping us a version behind
And he is asking a absolutely retardedly high price for it
Yea, it's pretty scummy.$20 is an insane paywall for a game that isn't even original art.
I'm trying to understand why everyone seems to think the latest full version of the game is behind a $20 paywall when his patreon clearly states you can get the latest full version for $10:nope its a 20 dollar paywall even the big porn games dont go that high to get access to their latest version and most of them also have a version back public version that isnt stripped down to the bare minimum
Because the $20 version contents complete version of the facial features. He has paywalled sections of the complete game off like its DLC. With $10 you get the base game, yes, but only part of the features. With $20 its the full. Even at $10 the price tag is insane.I'm trying to understand why everyone seems to think the latest full version of the game is behind a $20 paywall when his patreon clearly states you can get the latest full version for $10:
$10 or more per month
- Play True Facials - Standard latest version.
what prevent it is the dev hismelf.What prevents anyone from just uploading the full version of the game here? We do it with everyone else's games. Does it have some kind of DRM?
perfect example of a dev letting it get to his head and shooting himself in the foot before his game could really take offwhat prevent it is the dev hismelf.
this is HIS thread, and he perfectly can ask moderator to refuse uploading his own stuff if he want.
consider its a pirate website and all, but still dev himself share his stuff, soo cant really go against his own decision on his own thread ...
unless dev is okay with that, wich i honestly doubt.
So you are saying that the links exist here, only because the game devs allow them to exist here? If somebody, like Mr. Dots for example, says he doesn't want DMD's full patreon version to be on this website, then the mods would comply with that?what prevent it is the dev hismelf.

i dont talk about all the dev. i m talking about this dev.So you are saying that the links exist here, only because the game devs allow them to exist here?

Quite frankly, I think this must be bullshit. Palmer, for example, has implemented DRM into his games. If all he had to do was go to the mods and be like "Hey mods, I don't want them to put the early access version as a link on this site" then I don't think he would have gone to the lengths he did to stop people from cracking his DRM.
I believe you but just seems really sketchy. If someone made a thread "True Facials Full Version" then the mods would just delete it? Just because a dev is active in the forum and post their own game ahead of someone else, they get special preference? haha I don't even care about the game at this point, I just think the inconsistencies with these unwritten rules are interesting.i dont talk about all the dev. i m talking about this dev.
he is not the only one to do that. some oters dev post here public version and you wont see patreon version released in the thread because the dev have decided this.
and believe it or not, as pirate as this site is, the staff still respect devs, and if a dev have his own thread for his own game, HE decide if the game must be leaked or not, and staff would accept this, as respect to the dev.
aint bullshit. ask a moderator yourself and you'll see.
i dont pay fucking $20 for a Demo.You must be really salty about this, if you hate on him so much. Either pay for it and support dev, or just wait for release. Idk what's up with people like you who just go full pepega because they want everything for free.
honestly, i dont know. but that would obviously create conflict because of multiples thread about the same game.I believe you but just seems really sketchy.

ah, i remember to have seen some devs refusing to upload last version.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
it's simply because no one sharing the extra version yet, we have strict rules demanding that dev do not remove shits that we uploads (in return we will help promote their patreon or whatever)
we encourage dev to take ownership for their game thread for better quality control (easy bug fix uploads, etc) and getting interaction with community here.
however, we do not encourage devs to sabotage what we uploads. many of you think that we favors devs more because most of you expecting we all running on world banks or something (we don't) and we can just subscribe any patreon as we want (most contributors are forking out their own income).
we do have devs being deviant, removing patreon version and whatsnot, we would just remove the thread ownership from him. (happened few times already)
in the end, if you do sees the moment we upload the extra version and it got taken down, report it, we will check it, and remove the ownership of thread from him
