I've never at any time said anything like that. People who pay for this know, or very soon find out, what it is they're paying for. (Like all rational beings they make an informed choice whether or not to continue). He can't be scamming 1500 to 1800 patrons all at the same time but I reserve the right to criticise an abysmal update schedule & a number of broken promises, along with aspects of the game's development I don't like. Many fans paying & pirate do that & we all have different tastes. That means that there is a, (sometimes begrudging), acceptance that no-one is going to like everything about this or any other game. One thing that all tend to agree on is that this game will run for up to another 3 decades at the rate it's going.Yeah saying that the guy is a scamartist all the time with no real evidence with ignoring they his reasoning and then post it over and over again is certainly a good way to promote a product you maybe consider to buy.
That's something that's never been done before. It would be a first but I can't see how it's in anybody's interests. So what, if I'm getting it for free you might ask? I've explained elsewhere that I do have Patreon sponsorships ongoing & that I intended being an AWAM patron.....but then the production rate slowed down...then slowed down again...& again....etc.
When I was working, I spent a lot of time in high pressure environments. One colleague described it as, "working at a million miles an hour". Excuses for missed deadlines were not, I repeat not, acceptable, even when they represented the truth. Perhaps you can see why I don't have the sympathy, or perhaps even empathy, that some fans have for the issues surrounding AWAM.
Having said that, I've always tried to be balanced in my criticisms & comments & believe the record shows this but lately..................
