Anatomy of Metroid Fusion 10, and a change
🕑 Added 2015-05-05 02:17:21 +0000 UTC Hi everyone, I've written the next entry in The Anatomy of Metroid Fusion. But, going forward, Patreon content will be working a little differently than in the past. From now on, all written content will be posted here in PDF form for you to download and read, remaining Patreon-exclusive for several months, or however long it takes me to compile it into a book, at which point I'll start posting it publicly. There's a simple reason for this change: I really want to show how much I appreciate everyone's support, and I feel like this is the most effective way for me to do so. You all will have a long, long lead on everything I write for these sites (except videos, which will continue to be a couple days' lead). You can download the PDFs from the post's link, or just read them inline. Thanks for your ongoing support, and enjoy!Comments

Well I guess I screwed up, then.

I mostly read the articles in Pocket too. And while the extra effort is appreciated it does make things a little less convenient.

That's a bit of meh…I usually add your articles to my Pocket-account, so I can read them on my phone in bed or while commuting. So when I get your mail and I am at a computer I go to the sucky Patreon-site, add the link to my Pocket-account and read it later. PDFs are not great on phones and only work good on tablets (which I do not really use) or computers (where I do not enjoy to read such content). I don't care about the exclusivity, I just want to support you creating the great content you do. I've never listened for example to a Retronauts-episode before it isn't published on the RSS-feed because it just is too cumbersome even with Huffduffer.

I'm a patreon supporter and I'm sure I do not speak for everyone, but I truly and honestly don't care much about exclusivity. I just want to support your work and if doing so means that other, non-supporters get to enjoy it as well, that is all the better... I'd still rather be able to read your articles in my RSS reader and I usually wait until the videos are released on Youtube to view them. Coming to the patreon website to catch these things early is tedious.

Oh I'm still getting all the emails.

Unfortunately Patreon doesn't offer an RSS feed, but you should be receiving email notifications of these updates. Are those not coming through?

PDF's are great, but the patreon website kind of sucks. there is no rss feed so I always forget to check it, it signs me out constantly and the whole system is a pain to get running on the tablet where I'd want to read the pdfs =\ I can't say I can think of a particularly better way of doing this whilst keeping exclusivity though, something like a shared dropbox folder would be fantastic - just drop a new pdf in there and everyone automatically gets access - but managing who does and does not have access would probably be a huge pain if you want to keep it exclusive.

As a reminder, because Patreon's layout is pretty bogus, the PDF download link is right below the headline of this entry!
