Experience and Knowledge should be the prerequisites for criticism, not how much you pay. Icstor has a history of having updates pushed back several weeks to the next month. Some might come to a conclusion of "milking" his patrons. He also very well could be poor at predicting update's time frame, not everyone can be Sin.
Well, whichever the case, it's definitely not milking what he's doing. So what if he pushes back the release by a week or two, hell, even by a month, if it means that once the update will be released, it's high quality and that's what Icstor wants to deliver and make sure he's able to do.
He is not too slow he just delivers big updates,let's say the upcoming update will take three months and than divide that update in three parts for each month and I'm sure it will be bigger that any other update delivered by any other developer(taking into consideration quality and quantity)
Yeah he's definitely not slow considering the amount of content he delivers in updates, and I think I read somewhere today that this update would contain tons of renders and like 50+ animations or something? Possibly read that wrong but even so, that definitely takes time to do. This is a high quality and one of the top VNs out there, you don't want the quality to suffer just to get more frequent updates.
It's not milking if the new content justifies the amount of time waited between releases....
If you think ICSTOR is a milker, I really wonder what is your opinion about Aorrta and Gumdrop?
Your pictures do not open. In the office on Bob's desk there are documents - they can be sorted (at speed) at noon, and money for it is taken from Bob in the morning in the same office
