From a dev pov, it's really sad to read such deceptive opinions, not getting what they want asap because they are frustrated I guess. Nobody force ppl to support the project anyway.
I had a really good time on it with the old build, and did a rerun to have a fresh opinion again months ago, and it's still a real pleasure to play on this new one as well. I just have other things to do in the meantime, no need to have such childish words about someone courageous enough to undertake such a renewal project/refactoring.
Hope the best for this project, and I can wait for the next events in the story long enough. Let dev cook.
