It's his MO and it's the way this dev has been for all the years at least I've been playing in this arena. I have to thank him, really, for his f*cking over his patrons (one of them me) with MLS, as he gave me my first huge lesson about how the patron platform (patreon/ss) is overall a negative/destructive force to the creative process, not a beneficial one. But let's be bottom line realistic here. The only victims are the people who (IMO) waste their money to support both him and that destructive trend. If they don't see how they're being taken, or don't believe they are, then that is their choice and it's a choice they're entitled to. My personal number one reason for not playing this game at all is that he has not in any way changed the way he approaches his work or reacts to his patrons, which means I see the possibility down the road of him bailing on this one when he gets bored with it just like he did MLS. How do you think anyone who has supported all these years will react when/if that happens. I really hope, for their sakes, that he doesn't, but he'll never get that trust from me again.
