ok some of your remarks about subscriptions that there was no 1500 patrons from the beginning and we can guess average of 5$ per month (but it also can be more than 5$) are reasonable.Larger sum won't make him work faster, but it will motivate him to keep working on this game.
As long as he would not hire assistance, you can't assume that update speed is lineary connected (don't know if that's the correct English term) to the sum he earns. What I mean is - if the sum multiplies by 2 it doesn't mean the speed multiplies by 2.
Also, you can't assume he has 1500 Patrons from the very beginning of the game's creation. He started with 0 Patrons, as every other dev.
P.S. The guy that told you if you donate he'll work faster was just kidding...
however if we say that he has 1500 patrons for at least 2 years on average 5$ we come to sum of 180.000$ for that period. What larger sum than 90.000$ per year is needed to motivate him to keep going? Salary better than lots of heads of states have (including some EU members) according wikipedia. Pampering him with crazy amounts of money constantly to keep going is only going to slow him. Why he would rush to deliver product when he can milk for more money next several years. Mark my words: this story will still be active after Elon Musk lands on Mars (and MC won't be yet fucked
Actually this made me thinking of quit everything and make some kinky games too...
