Fortunately for us, the Patreon execs have seen what's here, got cold feet and won't be buying anything

I do buy avn's on Steam and I do sometimes subscribe on Patreon when a game is finished.
My fear was, although short lived after I saw it was a joke, that some content would get deleted here, mostly things like the incest patches and some more niche games that aren't allowed on Patreon.

Honestly, i buy most official games the real way through Steam, i download games here usually for free.
you are very correct, incest is one of the subcategories not allowed on Patreon. but its not the only subcategory.
read this statement for more succinct clarity:
More specific Adult/18+ category guidance and clarity. Patreon is fully committed to supporting Adult/18+ creators and their businesses. Informed by feedback from these creators (including

creators of erotic works), the category name “18+ creators and mature themes” has been changed to the less opaque “Sexually Graphic Works.” The team also detailed what is and is not permitted under subcategories such as “Bestiality,” “Sexually explicit deepfakes,” “Incest,” “Pornography and nudity,” and “Sex tourism.” That being said Fzone is the best option for adult content for games.

I do agree that this place is the best option for adult games.
As you can see I've only joined recently as I wasn't aware of this site even though I've been playing avn's and other adult games for years now.
But this site just opened up a whole new experience and I like everything about it.
Those subcategories look indeed like I would expect to not be permitted on Patreon and also most porn sites.

Thank you for agreeing with me.
Fzone is also a great place for developers, some developers on here like to share their ideas and creations with others and respect the feedback from others who support or like their game. Patreon however restrictive, is still a good starting point for a developer to help make their game become more recognized.

jesus christ what a insane april fool message. Thinking patreon acquiring is the downfall. One hair strand turned white.
Patreon, as I understand it, only accepts vanilla sex... with ZERO variability.
I think "50 shades of grey" would have been banned - if it had been a game.
I would advice that you do NOT rely on a single processor... especially not Patreon.
(I may be wrong about Patreon, but not relying on one processor is timeless advice)

In the same time, having his game feature here, and this being your doing, will catch the attention of those 1%-3%, and raise his change to have his first patrons.
It's just that one shouldn't dream big just because he seen the 7 millions members.
"Patreon executives were blindsided and unprepared for the sheer level of degeneracy in this community, and pulled out of the deal."
As a person who frequents this site and supports game and modders, i honestly cant say the percentage of us who actually support devs. tbh if i had more money i would spend more than i currently do with projects i enjoy, but its not viable to support all projects. I would say grow your following first and go with a monthly scheduled of updates. Once you feel you have enough content to sell as a viable product, sell on sites like Itch.io. For both Patreon supporters and your Itch.io buyier, have something that is specifically sold to them (like a walk-through, a directors cut, or a walk-through mod that that goes over easily missed moments or interactions). It may end up pirated but the goal is to get people who realllly like your project to want to support it before its thrown up on sites like f95. These tend to be the things that actually get me to support a project. To be fair I also have a quarterly rotation where i support a project for about 3 to 4 months and move to a different one that i want to support. only a few i support year round. It becomes easier for me to do this with projects like that tend to have longer development times.
For example
games i always buy from Itch.io but don't typically support on patreon/SubscribeStar
Anything from Siren's Domain, Andrealphus, EmperoXXX and CataclyZm but i buy thier whole packages.
Games i buy off Itch.io and routenly support at least 2-4 months out of the year
Mythic Manor, Aurelia, FEYADA, PriceForFreedom. Usually in or around thier release dates.
Games creators I support on Patreon/SubscribeStar for 3-4 months if possable
DarkCookie, Runey, Mity, The INN, and Lord Arioch. Usually around thier release months
All year round support
Bad kitty games and Dinaki (If i have the money). I had more but many have dropped thier projects and thus i stopped support at the time of my choosing.
Basicly I make a budget based on how much I have to spare for games. it fluctuates month to month though
I know this is a bit off topic from the joke post but if it give some idea of the spending habits of a user and helps plan out a projects, though just know that isn't always the case for everyone and i could be an outlier, just know that F95 is a resource of getting the project off the ground. The ones who support projects are often the ones that don't bitch and moan about how your paywalling content. Never feel ashamed of how you choose to monitize your project or get people to find your patreon/subscribestar, so long as it isn't preditory or milking the audience. Also it really helps to do regular updates to show that the project is alive. most projects i've dropped are usually due to not knowing if the project is alive or if the dev is even able to continue with the project.
With how off topic this has become we probaly should move this to a different discussion.
Oh no it's not that. I have nothing against F95Z, just how it's getting more and more saturated with shite demos and the life. Cheers anyway. I'll try again.
