Listen, I followed a Dev who recently faked their own death for the second time. There is absolutely no way I will believe ANY excuses now for slow progress, little/no transparency and complete lack of respect for the people who support the work financially. His patreon might be filled with posts about how much work he's doing but the last time I checked the posts were about 2 months out from each other and gave away nothing but "I decided to spend time re-rendering clothes in the closet.
I said it once, I'll say it again, I hate Stoper with a passion. He is one of the laziest, excuse-ridden devs I've ever come across. I have been part of this community for nearly 8 years and I have to say there are echoes of devs who have abandoned projects within his posts and his releases. It's been almost a year since the last update and I can guarantee you all now that when/IF we get an update there will be about 10/15 minutes of gameplay at best.
There is nothing anyone can say to change my mind about this guy and that will never change.
