Oh fuck I didn't realize you asked a question before, lemme answer
I'm still on book 3, I basically completed Toph's arc but I think since I was so eager to get it over with I ignored everything else and the game apparently didn't want me to do that so I have to complete the other girls before I can move on. I've already done Korra's slave route though so I don't need to do that one.
ah yes, guess you got stuck at some point then, kinda can't really finish the Toph part without the sidelines.
then again, i do like the Jo Dee content of slave route more than the love route one. that's just me.

Honestly yeah. At this point, either he rushes out something sub par and people point out how shit the writting is like in book 4 slave route. Or he takes time to make it good. And as a consumer I'd rather he takes time to make it good because when it eventually comes out it will be worth it, and even worth replays. But if he rushes it, it's gonna always be a bad part of the story that people trash.
Yeah, I agree, nothing can be done for the writing, it's totaly different from the coding aspect, it either goes well or it doesn't.
No. Even writers as JRR Martin have writing blocks that last for years. I thought it was coding, but it's writing. I can't blame him for this, and so should you.
As somewhat of a writer myself I totally understand this problem. It sucks when you lose inspiration, and keeping interest in projects for years is a whole other pain. I will wait with baited breath for any progress. They haven't failed us yet.

Writing block is a bitch and I dont think anyone is arguing otherwise. What sucks is when we're left in the dark for weeks with no word, thankfully the coders updated us (even though he had to be prodded by the artist to do so each time). The delay sucks but I agree better to have to wait and it be good than rush it and it be subpar.

Especially now since this update might very well be the last one of 2020, not counting the potential Halloween special the artist hinted at.

this hiatus is being better for me than jojo's.
I at first mistook the month to last month, then mistook the day to 12 of this month instead of 17, and have been updating mangadex all the time waiting for the scanlation

It's all fun and games when you have a writer's block, except that money's on the line. .

I personally wouldn't fund 2+ months of writer's block. They already get a lot of money.

There's a certain responsibility they have, can't just use an excuse and not post an update.

Do remember, funding is not the same as you paying for the game, it is you providing the creator with funds regardless of the current progression, in a sense you're donating on the expectations of a product even if it has delays and set backs. There is no contract, and they don't owe shit to anyone, and considering they're by far more consistent than 90% of developers on here they can most certainly get paid for nothing if they have writers block for a bit.

If they for some reason lost money because they weren't 'productive enough' that provides disincentives to the creator, its because they are funded for both good and bad times that creators can feel more motivated to work because people aren't stingy with their wallets when hiccups happen. If it's for a prolonged period then that is more acceptable but when a pothole happens you ripping away the price of a sandwich over it isn't fucking helpful in the least. There are layers to this, and thankfully plenty of people putting in money even during rougher times when they aren't overly expecting something.

I understand not funding writer's block. But I think when someone is considering dropping support entirely or temporarily, writer's block vs laziness are very different situations.

If that's the case then go for it!
I'm down for more content, but like I said if this slow down the main game I prefer they dropped.
