The mainstream game development companies could learn a thing or two about managing expectations and communicating with the consumer base from magicnuts.
They could but they don't have to. It's a big difference if you already have all the cash to start developing or if you are depending on monthly support and keep your supporters motivated to not cancel it.

Ofc it would be beneficial for the big boys too but they simply don't care as long as enough games can be sold to cover the production costs and get a profit from it.

On the lack of meaningful choices:
If we wanted the choices to impact the outcome of the story, we would take even longer to develop each release (for it to not feel half-assed, it would need extra art and posing). And I also don't like it when in some games, some choices change the outcome but others don't. So for us, it was either all choices have an impact on the narrative or none of them do. We with the latter, of course. Why do we still have choices, then? Plenty of reasons, all posted earlier in this thread, but the gist of it is that I find them a useful tool for breaking a long dialogue and injecting some humor here and there. The one thing I should have done better (and will do in 0.6 if I have the time) is adding a message at the beginning of the game, clearly telling the player that their choices don't impact the story so that there's no surprise when they don't.
There are *some* choices in this game that affect dialogue: For example, it keeps track of the MC's virginity and has variant dialogue for each vaginal scene if it's the one that pops his cherry. But the only kind of choice that matters in a game like this, I think, are mutually exclusive scenes/routes, and I actually prefer it when a game doesn't have those. I hate having to play a game multiple times to unlock the full gallery. And it's bad enough when it at least has a logical story reason why you can't have both, but many authors seem to delight in making these kinds of divergent routes for no reason except to add "replay value."

But at least it's not minigames!

Sorry, ramble over. Point is, I agree with everything y'all are doing, so keep up the good work.

One of two things happen in threads like this when it concerns updates:

If you are not a patreon and have any criticism then everyone basically says "shut up already you're not a sub"

If you are a patreon and you are here with criticism too well then it's basically "shut up and unsub already"

Just an observation in probably every thread that exists here, especially the popular ones.
Are you looking for nuance on a webpage dedicated mostly to fictional jerk material?

I look at people who use that type of circular logic like those with battered wife syndrome.
I've got to say that this is borderline offensive. I assure you that most of us who are long term supporters of MagicNuts are fully aware of what we're paying and what we're "getting" for it.

I wonder how far this goes back. Did Davinci's patrons have a steady stream of people mainsplaining to them that they were stupid for supporting him? If so, I'm glad those patrons didn't listen either.
