due to personal experience, I'm pretty sure it is the most likely answer.


that would be a valid answer in something like a fanfic you can just put an author's note for the readers to check again the past chapter, or a book still unreleased as you are supposed to give a second pass anyway.
but the problem here is that this is a game released episodically. making a release and changing it later would require players to reload an earlier save, or restart the game even. Sure, it sounds easy since this is not that much into part 4, but it is still a bunch of time to hold "shift" to skip.

In my opinion the better idea would be to work on something else, something small, just to let the creativity flow and let you better grasp what you should do for your plans.
of course, that comes with the risk of enjoying working on the smaller thing too much and expanding it as time goes.
not really, many games do a "redo" on earlier chapters, hell, one of the things people are asking them to do while we wait is a redo of chapter 1.

just look at sumertime saga, they remade the content for the family so many times, its possible they combined had more development time than everything else... combined.

this is episodic, sure, but this is no mainstream AAA developer, people are whilling to overlook this kind of thing because its closer to an early access development than a true episodic one.

boos are kinda isolated though, this pause is in the middle of book 4.

I hate when they do that... I mean sure, improvement yay, all my saved work untill now is useless or broken though.

if people understood it like that we would have much less complaints here that are just repetitions though.

I just really hope there will be update before Cyberpunk comes out
and I heard cp2077 got delayed again, and at this point I'm not sure if it was real or a joke...

It could also be that once he got some meds and stabilized a bit, he hated the 90% he had done and scrapped some of it. I can't imagine forcing your way through writers block is very conducive to quality writing.
if his mental state required meds and he took, a number of those make you lose focus and/or interest, or just drag you down to somer state where you're 'stable' and run out of ideas to idk, do harm to yourself or anyone..? not the ideal state of mind to do productive brainwork like working on a story. or, coding. or, like written on most of those things, drive a car or use heavy equipment. we can't rule out that he might spend most time of the day staring into the emptiness, depending on the prescription.

now that is all theory. the painful might be that there's just one piece in that part of the story that just won't fit no matter how he turns it. more likely imo, happens alot to writers. you have the raw path, have the major pieces, even forged it all into something funny, but this one damn thing. now, decide to redo it all from scrap, risk the same happen again, or spend weeks on weeks over this one bit? that decision alone can be a downer.
however, i still think we will get -something- this year. i even expect the quality won't be lesser than what average MiTy came up with thus far.

That is true, kinda. I do remember thinking at first my writing was better when depressed instead of when medicated. Also for a bit my emotions were a mess.
I got better though.

No its implied that the Coder is going threw depressive episodes and it contributed to the current hiatus.
The Coder also refused to let the Artist finish the job on this update when asked. So progress made without him is not allowed.

Artist should abandon him at this point and let Coder sink his own ship. If Artist go independent I will be his first patreon.

The artist is being hired by the coder really, so I don't think there is anything stopping him from doing so if he wanted.
He could just have his own project, like he did that teen titans short, and work on this one when the coder has more work for him.

But it doesn't seem like he wants to.

Is it ever discussed what happened to

Just curious.
It's indirectly brought up in one scene where the player is wondering if he is fucking his own children. He also discovers that granny Toph is still around and considers visiting her as a passing thought.
