Step #1: Somebody whined.
Step #2: The dev is pandering for support.
The dev has reworked the scene by beginning to kill their own game through pandering in exchange for...I don't know exactly.
It's free, so there is no money at stake.
There is no guarantee that the whiny bitch will ever download their "approved" changes.
he will kill the goodwill from the people who enjoyed his previously released content.
His own life gets that much more complicated when he starts kissing the asses of whiny strangers.
There simply is not one good reason to change the content. Maybe the dev will be kind enough to point out what they DO get out of reworking scenes for people that can't be counted on to support him in the future.
It's stupid to do it on Patreon, but at least there is profit on the line. Some devs (Dr. Pinkcake) enjoy very profitable lives while drip feeding trash to idiots. To kowtow to some bitch on itch is an act of desperation, and nothing else.
