I wouldn't say I "admire" him but yeh I don't blame him one bit.
It is, however, eternally frustrating to see this happen. Because people on patreon vote with their money what type of behavior, games and general style they prefer. By staying subscribed to him en masse people are actively stating they wish to be scammed, lied to and receive exactly this.
It's frustrating that people want it but...well, it's like video games, yeh? For decades people supported things like unfinished games, DLC, early access, sub-par development holding your IP hostage, mass lying and just generally terrible games. Obviously that's what people wanted, so that's what devs give them now. It sucks for a gamer who wants quality thatthe majority does not want it, but yeh. I don't begrudge devs.
ICSTOR has been doing this for years. People are still subbed to his patreon. This means he is an absolutely correct dev.
