Anyone else sick of Patreon??
Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but is anyone else sick of everyone putting their new CC on patreon? It's like everything I see that I want to download I have to pay for. I wouldn't...

I don't mind people putting their work behind paywalls. Some of them put a lot of work into the CC they create because it's not easy or otherwise everyone would just make their own CC. I think it's perfectly valid they want to get compensated for the work they do. It's also often only like a few bucks or you can just wait until it's available for everyone.
It's similar to normal artists who don't usually do commissions for free because even though it's a creative career (although there's probably not many people doing CC for a living... but you get the point), the people deserve to get paid for the hours and hours of work. No-one's forcing you to pay for it, it's just a way to support a creator until their work is (usually) available for public access.
It's not the same as artists who do commissions at all. Mainly because the source code for the game does not belong to these people. TS4 isn't an open source program. They can't charge money for something they have 0 rights over. CC making isn't a career it's a hobby.
Artists who do commissions by drawing etc, own their work and thus they can sell it.
EA themselves have rules over CC...creators who put cc behind a paywall for over 2 weeks can have their CC claimed by EA.
