God, he's so full of shit. "We had a torrid development cycle this time!" Yeah, so you should have actually kept people updated and told them to expect less and that it would be made up for in the next update instead of just saying nothing and provide an update with the primary character missing half its content and the two back up characters, who shouldn't have been prioritized over the primary, releasing with half of the content not working. I don't care if he's lazy, I expect that out of patreon developers, what I care about is proper lines of communication. You'd be surprised how much people can forgive if they don't feel like they're being lied to.
