I'm honestly confused, i used to think this was a piracy forum (i might be wrong). If it is, then why the hell are people so mad about others wanting the link. I think it's reasonable considering how every game that was released had a published link within minutes. But not in the last few months.
By the way, I just want to clarify that i am currently not paying for any game (used to). I find the patreon way to be quite shitty.
You don't see normal games asking for money each month (i mean sp games). They wait until the game is ready, or at least mostly ready (with some content at least). Which these games don't go that way. I don't understand why developers just can't take time with their projects and actually release them when the game is at least 30-50% done and then do a 1-time buy, and just have a donate button, i am sure many people would donate if the game is actually good. Or you could do a 2-time buy, for example. Pay 15$ (or more, developer's choice) for the first 50% (while the game is in development), and pay 15$ more when the game is complete.
I think it's better than the patreon wallet sucker. and it would show me that developers respect me more as a customer. sometimes it feels like we're trying to help homeless people. come on guys don't you think that a lot of normal people are working a job and on the side doing projects (without much money). yet they can still survive and succeed if they're really passionate about it. it's like money is the main motivation for a lot these guys, when it should be the passion to create these games.
