But seriously, it's really embarrassing. DPC considers the Interlude to be a full-fledged issue, which means that it has a maneuver for 2 episodes per year, even if the Interlude is a small one-hour issue. I think that DPC knew that he would be testing and polishing the game for steam and GOG for a very long time (a month and a half), so he came up with this interlude so as not to disappoint the patreons with a long year's wait.
But it's to bite him on his fat capitalist ass
.
The number of his patreons is not growing, I even said it has a tendency to slow decline. He probably considers 2022 a transitional year and in 2023 he will switch to the previous pace of development. I would like to see the finale of season 3 already in 2023, but apparently it will only be at the beginning of 2024.
