Vamos esperar então...
edgaia, I agree, I do not justify, and I do not defend RAinces, but they let all the dogs down on him, making him more terrible than Putin. And everything is quite banal: RAinces just ran into a wall with programming, and he is either shy to ask for help, or his pride does not allow him. And who will help him when he himself confused everything so much that two people who tried to figure out his codes said it was easier to write a new game than to fix an existing one. And now RAinces is standing in front of a wall angry at himself, angry at sponsors, angry at the whole world. He would honestly admit everything, but he is afraid that he will be considered a weakling, so he just keeps silent, hoping that this situation will resolve itself. And I do not know what is more correct in this situation: to feel sorry for him or to sympathize. And time passes inexorably, and even I feel like I've almost lost interest in the game I've been looking forward to.
If any of that is true, then Rainces should either just give up on the game and stop blocking other people from running with it. Or stop charging their patrons. It comes back again to their lack of communication. And his shyness/pride/whatever is not anyone else's problem other than his, assuming those are actually part of the issue and not just you trying to come up with your own head-canon for his actions. He's neither too shy nor too proud to take people's money for several months at a time and give nothing in return, or to repeatedly lie to people. If he wants to abandon the game, cool. Or if they just can't physically do it anymore because of how messed up their own code is, also cool. Just tell people and stop taking their money. Or if they're too shy to tell them, at least stop taking their money and close down their patreon and other pay sites.
Não, nada disso... Continua com os mesmos tiques.
As long as people want to see more of the game they will support the developer. It's as simple as that. This is the reason sites like patreon and subscribestar exist.

Instead of writing these long posts you should just join his discord and wait like the rest of us.Olha ele... Está de volta o guarda pretoriano. Bem-vindo amigo. Preparado para mais um round? Desta vez temos que fazer menos barulho ou somos censurados...
# He's back, the praetorian guard. Welcome friend. Feeling replenished and ready for another round? We've got to be more quite this time or else we'll get censored again. Yeah everything you mention seems right and reasonable. But let's get a closer look into it:
- where's "more of the game"?
I've always admitted Jenny update as being a great effort despite the lack of story progression and a not so good new model. Other than that, how many times and when were there any significant "more of the game" releases after his first one (5 yrs ago)?
- how many times has he claimed he paused payments?
If all his actions are meant to keep the milking on (instead of regular updates), if he keeps misleading about everything else, what would make me think he's telling the truth about that?
People are free to support whoever they want, in whatever context/situation (milking) they find acceptable. But they've got to understand they're only hurting their pocket and game progression.
People kept saying he paused payments before. This was prior to the last update. Since people were being so emphatic about it, I subscribed and stayed subscribed to his patreon for three months in a row at the $1 tier, and confirmed that I was charged each month. Maybe he had paused it for a month sometime before that, and "forgot" that you have to manually renew it each month thereafter. Maybe he did it for one month this time too, and "forgot" to renew it. We'd need a confirmed patron of his to let us know what months, if any, they were not billed for. I suspect people are taking his word they aren't being billed but aren't actually checking or decided not to bring it up if they did see it. Honestly, I never checked my monthly patreon receipt until I was confirming whether Rainces was billing me or not.

he said problably on the end of this summer (1/2 months)
If that holds true, my suspicion is that we'd magically get an update from Rainces around that same time, positioned to try to steal attention away from it. I'm fairly sure an update is coming from Rainces in any case, but certain things seem to trigger a sense of urgency in them and then suddenly... bam! Update.
("steal his thunder")
Yeah, I can see that happening. But I think OGRey will probably "crush" any competition...
