Yeah, completely right, without supporters this Steam release would not be even possible, so they are perefectly understand why the successful release on Steam is important for the further development of THEIR game and why Ocean made this decision. IMHO, they don't mind it because they know that the most time they get access to new content faster than on any other distribution platform. But the Steam release is an exception, and a one-time thing in a few years. Most people are understanding and don't mind. At least that's the impression I get from reading what supporters write on Ocean's Discord or on SS.If people did not support him on patreon that it woud be not even possible. At least release it at the same time for higher tiers... So 15 Euro on steam an 20 euro patreons.
The information that the full season will be published on Patreon later than on Steam was announced at least a month ago. For those people who think it will be too expensive for them, additionally buy the game on Steam just to get it a week early, or think it's unfair to Patreon/SS subscribers, well, they've had plenty of time to cancel their subscription this month or downgrade it to the lowest tier. So it's not a problem for the supporters either.
It seems that problems are mainly only have those who are waiting here for their hero, while constantly shitting both on the game and the developer.
