Point of clarification: Most patreon subscribers pay a dollar or two a month. If I paid a given artist, say, $250 for something specific then yes I would expect to get that thing. Patreon works more like you give them a few bucks a month and they produce what they produce in general, so getting upset with them for that is more than a little ridiculous.
I'm not sure what to call this, but everyone who chips in even a minor amount of money expects to have input and control over the product in question, to "get what they paid for", failing to realize that what they're paying in is a tiny amount compared to what is actually making it happen. It seems to be a relatively new phenomenon, but that could just be my experience.
