I don't see anything in common between L&P and Stoper, except renders and game quality. Stoper missed his release dates, but don't charge his supporters for current month, right? His doesn't milking at all! He is just creator, who is lazy or slow-working, or he can't judging the time range of his work, I don't know, maybe the three of all, but not milking!
L&P is clearly more calculating about his goals, his work. It's my opinion, but L&P can delivered updates more often, but he don't want to. Stoper is (another opinion of mine) "Have a hangover and don't wanna work today" guy!
