Again you had to simplify and all you have in response is "w-well they took 7 years". For somebody who types pages of belligerent nonsense and bullshit, you sure have the worst reading comprehension of anybody i've met in a while. Almost like none of this matters and it's just about your ego. Pissing and shitting yourself and insulting anybody who dared disagree and at best being passive aggressive, over nothing except the chip on your shoulder. Yeah, you're a pussy. I'll let the other more reasonable posters more kindly explain why you're wrong and have zero understanding of the things that happen in game development or project funding.
>p-pussy!
I literally told you your precious developer and precious game has no legit excuse, didn't I? Look at who has the worst reading comprehension. Also it is funny how you have nothing to say except throwing random insults.
To spin it another way: a man is standing on a street corner with a sign that reads "will poke you in the eye for $1". There is a lineup ten thousand strong wrapping around the block waiting to pay him for this service. You walk by and think, "Well that's a silly thing to spend money on," and then keep walking, enjoying the rest of your day and chuckling at the things people will pay for. Or, you can devote a portion of your time for the remainder of your life trying to convince people already in line that they don't know what they're lining up for, when there are signs clearly marked at the start of the queue and at checkpoints along the way that read "Lineup for Eye-Poking - $1".
Personally, I'd like to think I have better things on which to spend my time.
Worst analogy ever. Patreon page states this game is a role playing game. Do you see any role playing mechanics in this "game"? Can you level up? Can you build your character stats the way you want? Do you have dialogue choices that affect story of the game? Can you fight? Can you loot and earn items, equipment etc? Are there main and side quests that you can do? Does the world offer dangers and rewards for exploration? Can you grind levels to beat a boss you couldn't before? Can you cast magic? Can you use swords? Can you use bows? Can you fight npc's not because they are scripted enemies but just because you want to fight them? Those are core gameplay mechanics of role playing games. So, where exactly does this "game" fit in your analogy?
The problem is you're working off of the assumption that people care as deeply about this as you do...
They should, including you. Because every time you or anyone else defends or pays for this type of "game" you are actively encouraging other wanna be scammers to do the same. Which in turn affects everyone else, pirate or not because the whole industry gets filled with patreon scam games. And guess what, I want to play atleast decent porn games.
I'll continue saying this until I get this through everyone's thick skull and I do not care if you are a pirate or not.
Games, porn game or not, do not take 9 billions of years to develop. Games can be developed within 4 years with no income from patreon or similar sites.
But you're protesting this as if these backers aren't fully aware of the current state of the game
This is your assumption. I am protesting scams because anyone who supports them directly negatively affects the whole industry and we all get shitty games as a result.
Trying to change the fundamental basis of consumerism on a porn game pirate forum can only reduce your quality of life.
Honestly, arguing about how consumerism works on a pirate forum can only reduce your quality of life. Not to mention you are arguing in defense of a scam. So, feel free to leave this thread or ignore me if you are so bothered by my comments.
