Revamping tier rewards
Added 2021-01-22 13:41:48 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
Since I removed the NPC replacer/follower request from the diamond tier a while back, I needed to rework not only that tier but all of them to make sure they're balanced and with proportionate rewards. Here is a run-down of what has been changed and what has remained the same:
ALL TIERS
Just like before, all tiers will include the benefits of the tiers below it. This means that, for example, Gold patrons get not only the Gold tier perks but also the perks from Silver and Bronze. All tiers also get the same discord benefits; the special supporter role and access to the patron exclusive channel.
BRONZE
This tier has remained the same. As a bronze patron you get access to the patreon feed here where I post my modding progress, plans, previews and more. You also get to request NPCs for my overhauls whenever I am working on those.
SILVER
This tier has been redone slightly. The ability to "influence my modding plans" has been split into two different perks; affecting NPC appearance and voting for new projects. The former stays and is described below while the latter has been moved to a different tier and has instead been replaced by new perks.
If you are a silver patron you have the ability to submit or vote for character customisations when I'm working on NPC overhauls or other mods. For example hairstyles, warpaint and makeup and so on. You also get to request more NPCs for my overhauls, as well as get private troubleshooting help from me whenever you need it.
GOLD
This tier has had nothing removed but some new things added. As a gold patron you are able to get one of your racemenu presets improved by me once per month - this is the simple/light version where I only edit your character's face shape, which may not sound like a lot but that's where the majority of the work lies. Look at this picture to see what a difference it can make!
In addition to that, you get to vote for my future projects, and you will be given a special thanks on each new mod page while you are pledged to this tier. You also get to request more NPCs than the previous tiers.
DIAMOND
This tier has now been lowered from $20 to $15 due to the changes in the rewards.
Previously, this tier offered the option to request a standalone follower or NPC replacer in addition to also receiving the perks from the lower tiers. While $20 is a lot of money (to me anyway), especially monthly - the time it takes to create a follower/NPC mod from start to finish takes a lot of time and it wasn't sustainable for me to be able to keep it up.
As a shiny diamond patron, you can now get your racemenu preset fully improved once per month with all the assets you want - hair, eyes, makeup, warpaint etc. This is also the tier that not only gets to request the most NPCs for my overhauls, but your requests will have higher priority when possible.
IMPORTANT FOR DIAMOND PATRONS: Unfortunately, patreon is being an eggplant and I can't simply lower the price for the tier due to people currently being pledged at that level. Instead I have made a $15 tier called "Diamond (new)" and I'd like to ask you to switch over to that one instead, or any of the lower ones if you prefer of course! You're also welcome to stay at $20 if you want but it doesn't have any added bonuses.
ALMOST DONE I PROMISE
A separate post about follower/NPC mod requests will be up later but I wanted to prioritize this so that you all have plenty of time to adjust your pledges if needed before the end of the month.
I hope you like the changes I've made, if not feel free to reach out to me!
Lastly I just want to thank everyone who is currently pledged to me, people who have pledged in the past and people who have simply considered pledging - I appreciate you <3
