I don't use Patreon.
I have paid Rebootlove for his work through Itch for both part 1 and part 2.
I have been following this game for months, maybe years.
What I find disrespectful is the absolute lack of information that Rebootlove has given here on Itch. Months of nothing. Not a word about how its going, what sort of progress he's making, how much more work needs to be done. No teaser pics, which he's happy to share on Discord but not here on Itch. No regular news, which he's happy to share on Discord but not here. Etc Etc.
Yes I could join Discord but I shouldn't have to. I already have a presence right here on Itch and all it would take for him to share news with me here would be a simple copy and paste.
Something an 8-year-old could do, as you said.
So no I wont be giving him any more of my money. As far as I'm concerned he's already proven he is a bad investment.
Now please leave me alone so I can pretend I never found this AVN or ever wasted my time reading it.
