taking time off, 3 months on 1 month off for example, produces more results than going until exhaustion for 12 months and crashing. Rest and return.For a while I wondered why my productivity was starting to fall off
took a much deserved break as you can read aboveany new videos from Nyl ?
To be fair, I'm guessing the production time ballooning to months and months isn't something they planned out from the startThere was a excerpt from reddit I saw a while back that was essentially like 'hey animators im fine waiting a literal whole year for your complete content. just quit being cryptic and say hey i only release one animation every 364 days".![]()
When you have to much money and you dont need to care/respect your customers or work anymoreTo be fair, I'm guessing the production time ballooning to months and months isn't something they planned out from the start
Absolutely true.There was a excerpt from reddit I saw a while back that was essentially like 'hey animators im fine waiting a literal whole year for your complete content. just quit being cryptic and say hey i only release one animation every 364 days".![]()
That's what i was referring at first time, despite of what nyl says we have no way to know for sure if that is what's happening here too.Absolutely true.
This is becoming a chronic issue across the board, especially with the Patreon model.
Nyl is at least respectable enough to pause the Patreon when they're unable to deliver as a show of good faith.
Most Patreon creators at the top though, after reaching a certain amount of comfortable living money, inevitably go into cruise control mode. Regularity starts to slip, excuses start to mount "Feeling under the weather", "have personal issues", "my dog died". No real need to meet their own deadlines if people continue to pay.
It's hard to light a fire under your own ass at that point, but at least you should be able to manage the expectations of supporters.
