Yea I've been noticing that too. Think it started creeping in around 2023. I can believe some devs having to go into the office now but it doesn't explain the ones who are doing this full-time. I can give some leeway to the part-time devs but I'll never believe any justification for full-time devs.What caught my attention was the slow pace at which the delivery percentage graph was moving, much slower than in previous months, and it didn't match the information provided. I've backed over 40 projects, and many were abandoned along the way, so I'm always cautious when something seems inconsistent. I can say that, over the past year, there's been something strange with visual novel developers. I'm not sure if most were working remotely and had to return to on-site work, but even developers who started in 2020 and now have better equipment are taking longer to complete their deliveries.
Whatever it is, it's definitely pretty disappointing that it's become a trend.
