This dev might be solo, might have a demanding day job, might not be a skilled as those guys, might have had Covid, might have had family issues, might be burned out, might be tired of people bitching on a pirate site, might not have the computing power.......the list goes on and on as to why some people get huge updates monthly and some small updates yearly.
I didn't want to go into too much detail because it doesn't really belong here.
But the dev I am referring to is a also lone wolf, the "team" consists of 5 people all proofreaders/translators/testers.
Writing, rendering, coding, everything depends on one person and he doesn't earn a single dollar with it, which is why he also has a main job.
Yes, he has good computing power, and I'll concede to Slim that the animations take up a lot of time in this game, but to be honest, the ratio of scope and duration simply doesn't fit here.
Ultimately, I don't care either, I get the game here on a pirate site for free, I'm happy that it continues, I'm annoyed that it takes forever until I see my Fairy again, but as long as it's not abandoned I'm satisfied because I don't pay anything for it.
But that's the point, with such long development times, I lack the seriousness behind such projects to support them financially.
I don't pay for other people's "hobbies".
