We can all believe what we like, of course, but I was a patron of Wetdreamwalker's for a year back in 2022. I dealt with him personally a few times and from all that I have experienced in connection with this creator, I believe now, as I have always believed, that this guy is totally genuine.
The length of time he has worked on his creation and the consistency of the quality of every aspect of this remarkable novel is, for me, full and complete testament to his dedication and integrity as a creator. Many people have absolutely no idea of the amount of time and work required to produce one of these Renpy novels, but I can tell you this novel represents a herculean effort, especially as this is not his main source of income. In fact, I think it once was, but now no longer is, his main source of income which, I'm sure we can all imagine, would make his efforts at resuming/continuing his now hobby much, much harder.
Further, his last notice on his Subscribestar account indicates that he has sadly fallen personally on very hard times too in terms of health, family and, which comes as no surprise to me at least, burnout issues. I see no reason to disbelieve the sincerity of his words and I am 100% convinced that this guy would not, for one moment, consider milking his devoted followers.
I live in hope and faith that if it is at all within his power to do so, this exceptionally gifted and most dedicated creator will one day return to complete this undoubted masterpiece at which time I fully intend to resubscribe and support him to hopefully a joyous conclusion.
I would ask, simply as a personal request, that we all show Mr. Wetdreamwalker the respect and consideration he has truly earned and spare him, in his time of difficulty, all doubt and cynicism whether felt to be justified or not. I reiterate that I fully believe that if it is within his power to complete his creation he will, without doubt, ultimately do so.
