Actually it's good for Devs to not waste their time on failed/Boring project, and to not get burned from hard work .
If he organizes the whole things into episodes or whatever doesn't really matter, since these 10 would be one product. Either he raises enough money to be able to complete it or he doesn't. If not, then it won't be produced, classic croudfund model.
I think they don't see any reason. After all people know that they keep paying for goodwill.
A lot of the devs here do eventually release their game on Steam. So if you want to support the dev but don't want to pay the Patreon subscription you can just wait for it to be finished and then pay the 1 time cost to buy it on Steam. That's my preference as well personally. Unfortunately as you mentioned, a disturbingly high percentage of games get abandoned without being finished so they never make it to Steam. So you either pirate it or you pay a subscription for a game that never gets finished.
I bougth a few on Steam even if I hate the platform. I prefer itch and GOG. I would also put gamejolt in this list, but sadly they changed their policy about a year ago and removed all adult games - also the ones I bought there prior to that change. They did allow to download these games for about a year after that change, now they are gone for good.
"Fonzie" is a fitting Cat name.
Yeah I do think a lot of devs tend to fall into that trap. It's fine to take suggestions from your fans if that fits what you want to do as a dev but some of them end up basically doing development by poll just doing whatever the fans vote that they want. This can lead to them developing a game they don't really personally have much interest in, which just about guarantees that it's not going to be much good. So when the fans want something that just doesn't fit for you, you should say thanks for the suggestion but I'm not doing that. Next idea...
OMG, thank you kind sir, you deserve a metal, a statue - and not just a cat bur a street named after you!! How is Fronzie Boulevard."Fonzie" is a fitting Cat name.

Yeah, but even if he was updating twice a week someone would be giving him a hard time on why not 3 times
I think generally it's a compliment that people are impatient for the work but that's not enough to make more hours in the day or things render faster (or whatever cause of the hold up is)
Over the past year, the phrase in this topic "good news" has completely changed its meaning.
I have not been on this forum for a long time, I have accumulated a lot of questions. Of course, you can read the forum, but I think for now I will read 500 pages, half a year will pass and another 300 pages will appear on this forum. It will be endless. Therefore, I’ll be a little impudent and ask all the questions that interest me in one package.
Remake (UI, mechanics, events ...).
Forget about them (at least for now). We don't know how the (new?) game will look like.
