How many of you actually support the devs? And how much is a reasonable budget?
I currently have a fixed amount of $50 bucks a month, which I split it between 5-10 creators, depending of what's hot.

Only patreon I would even think about supporting is Dick Masterson.
No fucking way would I support these lazy fucking porn devs.
I've bought porn games before, but this patreon shit?

I've always stood by the belief that if one of these patreon games gets completed, and the story doesn't turn to absolute ass; then I'll pay them $40. So far I've never had to pay anything.

I don't support patreon devs at all .. nearly all patreon projects have absolutely laughable development speed and extremely often the dev. catches a serious disease, coding porn games endangers your health more than being a soldier in a war, or they have a inreversible hardware fault, porn game must trigger a special feature of self destruction on modern pc.
But i buy porn games if i can use normal channels to get them as long as they have ok prices.

When it comes to all media I only pay if I think I'll get my money's worth. In theory I have no problem paying $60 for a porn game if I felt it was worthy of that price. I would never do a pateron because I simply don't believe most will ever come out and if they do they probably won't be worth the price of months of sub fees.
That's pretty much the reason why I'm hoping subverse is good. I would love to get more western porn games that were complete projects with actual production value.

I see a lot of shit and looser on this thread.
If you think give 0$ for a game you played or a story you like and complain after shitty stuff. With your comportment, you made the shitty stuff. Work must be rewarded if you like it, point. If you like some stuff, give 1$ buck. Final.
When people say, I don't pay for porn, it's often the worstest bastard.

What I do not like about Patreon is that most devs see the platform as a place to sell updates.
If a creator is sincere and say, "I need $ 1500 to work 4h a day in the game," then I find it reasonable to try to help the guy. And ideally, after he reaches the goal, he should reduce the tiers because Patreon's sense is not to make people get rich because of the fans, but to get fans to sponsor someone's work.

more like they don't want to pay to their developers.
MITY 20 thousand dollars per month
Akabur 4 thousand dollars per motnh
Sad Crab 15 thousand per month.
I could keep going on and on but most of the scams are over 3 thousand dollars each month and they give the excuse they don't get enough money to pay for a team but problem is they want to get rich and quick without developing or doing some real work.

I'm perfectly capable of easily supporting many H-dev's, wouldn't hurt my finances at all, but fuck them, I never will. Patreon for game development is bad business practice, the more money these dev's get the less motivated they become to finish their games. Why finish the game when they can delay and milk it for as long as possible gaining as much patreon money as possible. If a dev produces a quality game, I will support them by purchasing the game once it's finished, simple as that.

Yeah but the game will never be finished, so what you should be asking yourself is "how much would I pay for half of this game being finished at best". You should have only given him like 10 dollars tops, well technically, you shouldn't have given him any money because Summertime Saga dev is a lazy, milking piece of shit, but you're one of those retards, so at least be smart with your retardation.
