He literally says "within a month" for the next update, and "soon" for the demo of "Drifted into Sin". Neither has happened yet, to the best of my knowledge. He has said two weeks in the past. Search the thread for the phrase "two weeks". It comes up with three pages of results dating back years, because he's made the promise multiple times. As I said, it has become a running joke here.
Here are a few references to the "two weeks" thing going as far back as 2018. There are tons more.
I'm all for cutting devs slack for a lot of stuff. Devs or their loved ones get sick. Hell, I know of at least one main dev that died between updates, and the rest of his team struggled to continue this legacy. Work happens, or doesn't happen, as the case may be. Games get banned on platforms. Wars start, and not just within the comments here. That is all outside the devs control. But let's not defend devs that at worst constantly mislead their supporters, or at best somehow haven't learned after several years that they can't meet any self-imposed deadline they make. I'll also not defend a dev that is somehow too busy to make a five-minute status update to their supporters when there is a delay. Stuff like that is fully in their control. Communication and transparency is important, but Rainces just really can't be bothered to give either any real effort. They're certainly not alone in that. Many devs are like that. But they can be, because so many people will accept it as normal now.
