It's kinda funny how people are more pissed here than on his discord. Or maybe his patrons are just crying here instead of his discord. I don't know. But honestly, if you're not a patron, you need to chill the fuck out and let the man work. He knows he fucked up and he's trying to compensate. Crying while not actually providing anything is just absolutely absurd. I do not provide him any money for his work, but I still get to enjoy it through this site once he provides. I have absolutely no say in how long it takes for him to make his work and I absolutely have no say to criticize his work. The man has provided countless time before, and he was glorified for it. But once he takes a break and comes back, and starts to finally show he's human and can make mistakes and bad decisions. His fanbase instantly exposes their fangs.
Again if you're a patron you have all the right to get angry, you have provided him money for a year and he has not delivered. If I was you I would be irritated as well. But if you're not a patron, please back off and be patient. You actually have no right to complain.
Please just remind yourselves that the man behind this game is a human just like you, he can make mistakes, he can have bad decision making, he can disappoint when it really matters and he can also get burned out.
I understand that it's irritating that he profits from his bad decision making and that he can profit from his supposed misfortune when it comes to his fanbase at the moment. But this is the first time he has received such bad feedback from his community. And I'm sure he's willing to shape up after this event. Everyone deserves a second chance, especially a former dedicated dev like him who never took a break even once in the past.
That is all I wanted to say.
TLDR: Patrons you're allowed to be mad, non-patrons you're not. Accept reality (non-patrons)
