So RotOD gives you contrived windows on its world, but the world itself is very not contrived. Instead of testing me on dialogue trees, I'm being tested on my ability to distinguish among English, Scottish, and Irish accents -- not easy for this American! The fact that a person's uniform clues you into their role, but there's no gamey acknowledgement of that, is quite realistic. (New patron rewards look fine, btw.)

No worries Vlad, thanks for your support while it was there! There's lots of great creators on Patreon who need the cash more than I do - sprinkle it around!

Sounds great, can't wait for the series on characters!

Hello Mark. From what I understand, the 5$ tier will no longer have the name rolling in the credits. Assuming above, I will no longer continue be a patron. I've been a 5$ patron for over 2 years, and with the change to not have my name in the end credits makes more inclined to take those 5$ and give to other creators on Patreon. I hope you do not see this as "take away my name, and i'll take away your money". My reason to keep the at the 5$, which I bumped up from 3$ in 2016, is to have a record in the videos of my support to you. With that being removed (combined with your amazing growth the past years) I feel my 5$ would better go to support other creators. That was my rant, and while I've got your attention I want to add that your videos have been VERY informative, good, and other positive words which I can't remember just now. Love your work, and I definitely hope you continue to grow :) Best regards, Vladimirs Nordholm

Hey Mark, almost everything seems great, except for one thing. I think the polls should be accesable for every tier just because you'll probably get the outcome that most people are happy with. Just like you didn't just let the 5 dollar tier give their opinions on the new tiers.

Sounds even better!

Sounds great - thanks for being open to feedback!

The series sounds great and I'm totally down for the new tiers. Thanks for listening! I'd love to occasionally pop up to a $5 or $10, but $3 is a great baseline for me to have year-round.

Thanks for keeping the bonus video with $3 tier! :D

I was quite worried about the $3 tier, so thank you for not removing the bonus video. I really do like the new tiers, and I don’t recall you doing editing tutorials before, which I think is awesome! I can’t justify it every month, but every so often I might up my tier to $5 to check those out! Thanks Mark!

Thanks for keeping the bonus videos at $3

Cool, thanks for listening.

I got this for free but I don't need it. It's a code for the 'Everspace' game on GOG. UDPBF94C0C95FA195Q

Sounds good, I will be staying at the 3$ tier :) Have a great rest of the year!

As a game developer (well, sort of) i always find your reading list one of your better rewards. I jump right into it as soon as you post it and pass the next few days diving into the contents you curate for us. I think you undervalue that content but i'm happy with the tier reesctructuration. As always, thank you for you work and your continuos effort to improve your patreon.

Thanks for being so reseptive to feedback I appreciate you keeping the bonus video at the 3$ level.

I'm excited for the new balance series. It's cool that you're gonna be covering fighting games as well. Ever since becoming part of the FG Community it's always fascinated me how people who play fighting games have a really good idea of good game design within the genre. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts .

Matt Glanville

Awesome, glad I still get to watch the bonus video. Thanks for listening! :) Also really like the sound of what's coming in 2019. Great stuff! Well done on a superb year!

Michele Papucci

Happy to see you've changed idea. It may sound selfish but I pledge mainly cause I love the stuff you throw at us. Being a 3$ pledge, losing the video would have meant that I would have downgraded to 1$ for the reading list which I enjoy.
