Sorry to be a bother! If you're a Redacted Audio patron (specifically at the $7 tier), do you think it is worth it?
I've seen people say 'yep!' especially with neat previews, 18+ audios that have lots of characterization, and it feeling nice to support the creator, but I've also seen people mention that early access isn't really that early most of the time (especially if you live on the east coast or overseas?), polls don't happen too often, and that the "only" thing you really get is the one monthly 18+ audio for the $7.
If you (or anyone that happens to read this!) are at that tier or have been, did you enjoy the patronage? I can afford it, but I just want to see if people have any honest pros and cons for me. Thanks for any help!
hello anon! I'm going to keep this as simple as can.
What other people say is completely true, the bonus audios are mainly the reason why everyone ends up getting the patreon, and they're all amazingly worth it.
I can't say much about the early access, because I don't really use it that often, I usually end up listening to the audios one or two days after they're publicly released, because at the moment, I'm never in the mood for it. But of course, if you want to avoid spoilers and stuff like that, I think the EA is really good.
In my case, the time that it comes out is usually around 7 pm, and i consider that sometimes is not the best time, but that doesn't mean it is not good.
I don't know if this is also available for the tiers under the 7$ one, but with this one you also get special access to secret livestreams Erik does sometimes, and while I don't really see most of them, I think it's really nice.
Overall, in my opinion, it is more than worth it, and if you can afford it, it is a good way to not only enjoy more content but also support Erik as well. Hope this clears up some confusion! <3
