Many people comment on the slowness like the dev hasn't done anything or he's lazy. I think that's unfair. The setting has become significantly richer and more in-depth with the bunk bed conversations, not to mention the characters themselves, which are going to be very important for the story.
So yes, I understand those who want the story to move forward, as we are at the same point since some time, and yes, the dev definitely took longer than planned and that's unfortunate, but the world is so much richer.
