Well I don't really care if you like or dislike me internet stranger haha
I had come to the conclusion awhile ago that the F95 community for The Manor was becoming overly toxic and began developing a culture of blind and immediate pessimism/skepticism, I also noticed that a handful of individuals seemed to be the loudest voices when it came to these things. Although I myself fell in line with the culture, not only with things like repeating the simple jokes the community made here, but even with things that I really shouldn't have said at all. I always had apprehensions about it for a few reasons, the primary reason being the issue of a lack of information for all of us here, I knew that to a degree I shouldn't be jumping to conclusions when I didn't know all of the information that was available, though with that being said, there are still limits to how much can be excused with "I didn't know it all". This issue of a lack of information here was a long-term problem, which became worse when Doc stopped being active here entirely. Doc has actually stated he is apprehensive about returning to F95 because of how toxic it became overtime, though he understands that it is deserved to whatever capacity.
I decided that I could easily fill in the roll of the guy that provided information, as I wanted to watch the streams myself out of curiosity, and that I could do it consistently unlike those random members who would only occasionally share content that they saw on the streams. Not only did the stream line up very well with my schedule, but when Doc stopped streaming at times that I wouldn't be able to attend the streams for, I had members of the Discord community, most notably Bluecollarotaku86 collect screenshots and video on my behalf. It helped a lot that a lot of the Discord users seemed to know who I was because of my work on the guide, so I had an easy time getting information, in fact even Doc would often respond to my questions so I could not only get more information for people here, but I could also ask questions from other F95 users.
Watching the streams slowly faded away my feelings of pessimism, I saw that the atmosphere of the Discord group was incredibly positive, and I got to see first hand how Doc would animate and draw new scenes, which all seemed to be better in quality compared to what the game currently has. I also saw his work ethic, he did have a bit where he wasn't streaming much for a week, but he was then very consistent, did multiple streams a day, longer streams (up to 10+ hours) and would even stream on days that were meant to be days off. I had also seen the rate of production, seeing many individual scenes put together. At the same time while in the Discord, I could read the comments that other members made and I could slowly piece together what were considered the norms there, though I'm far from an expert for now. I've come to the conclusion that I don't really need to be worried about whether or not Doc gets the update out on time, even if he is late it's likely to still come out this month, with the only potential cause for delay being unplanned new scenes and extra work popping up last minute. Such as the Vera scene that I convinced him to make, as well as the content that other Discord users got, being the Vera + Dog scene getting more scenes/variations.
There is a single frame with Martha in the bath that clearly depicts Martha as having been possessed by a ghost. Whether or not it was Doyle is another thing entirely.
