What I don't understand is how the fuck ISCTOR could say "I hope to be able to release the game in August", when he can't even do it in September. That is the worst fucking estimation I've ever seen. It should have been abundantly clear that there was no chance of that ever happening. Of course, people are going to get upset by those shitty attempts at making a deadline.
But then he still proceeds by going around and playing the victim; "Oh, look at poor me, receiving negative comments", when he has no one else to blame but himself and his lazy development team. It's extremely obvious that if you set certain deadlines you aim for, people are going to expect you to hit them, or at least just miss by a small margin. ICSTOR, though, misses by one and a half months. Naturally, people are going to call you out on in, when you give no fucking hint whatsoever at why it has happened.
And then you see a bunch of people defending him, or rather; excusing him, because of the update size or "quality before quantity". Well, here's the fucking thing; you don't manage deadlines by cutting quality, rather by managing scope. He could have said "Fuck the neighbour content, I'll chuck it in the next update, which of course will take longer, but at least my paying patrons will have something to entertain themselves with until then". But no, instead he keeps putting himself in an awful position to succeed, and then has the audactiy to complain about perfectly reasonable criticisms of how he has handled this.
I will NEVER be a patron of ICSTOR again. This has been so unprofessional of him, and I find it extremely provoking that he shows no sign of empathy for the people that have supported him month after month, just looking for a simple explanation for what's going on. That's my opinion anyways. Don't @ me.
