It'd be a good idea if she actually did something. Patreon is supposed to give people money with every piece of work they do, like a video or an article. If your Patreon is set to $X per month you're basically saying "I don't really do enough work to quantify it but give me money anyway.

I guess you'd be dumb for turning that down. If I could get free money that way, hell yeah I'd do it.

I think patreon is not a bad idea, but I really can't see an artist I'd trust enough to give money without garanteed return every month. In itself it's a good way to support artists you like but I guess it's too easy for them just to rake in the bux and not produce anything.

Patreons can be set up, so that you only donate money for each piece of content (a youtube video, an image on DA, whatever) someone produces while and you can also put a limit to your monthly donation, so the author couldn't spam updates to get your money.

I dunno why I'm bothering, but she may have been a beautiful human at one time, but currently she's a disgrace to humanity.

No, there are ghosts in the house and you have to vacuum them up to put them into paintings.

She has sort of helped advance the trans-humanist agenda of utilizing cybernetics for everyday use. That's it.

Crazy for the Bros
Gone Home just seems like a 5/10 game. Apart from the 90s atmosphere (which it nails), it doesn't do anything that well. Being able to inspect everything is neat, but the environmental storytelling is contrived. It's definitely too short, although being too long would hurt it (there's only so much you can do when your only gameplay element is "pick up object and look at it")

I think most of the controversy is caused by the reception it got from game journalism and because of its more devoted fans, who are very obnoxious.

He's a prominent game opinionator and reviewer based on youtube. He commented on it a little bit on reddit near the start of this and got massively censored by Reddit mods. People have been wondering when he'll actually post a video on this poo poo.
