And it's mostly highlighted out of self frustration.
I'll not say that no one ever complained about this issue before, but it's only when ICSTOR started to act like a fucking cunt that it really arisen as the generic complain it now is. Before this, a creator could release one update a year, and globally no one would complain. This while now it's almost if a creator isn't accused to milk his patrons if (s)he don't release one week of game content every month ; even when this creator don't even earn enough to pay a beer.
Really ?
Due to your previous comment, and the thread you're saying this, I assume that "good dev" mean "dev that release consistent update regularly enough". Therefore, can you take a better look at the list of

, and tell me how many of those "good devs" are in the top 100 ; there's some when you look attentively.
And while searching for them, note the number of creators who earn less than US$ 10,000 while still being in the said top 100, over the 5,180 creators in total.
Or note the difference between the US$ 9,411/month earned by Arc (22th), creator of
Corrupted Kingdoms, a game mostly updated every two weeks, and the US$ 25,774/month earned by Sad crab (23th), creator of
Innocent Witches, a game that nearly have one (generally small) update every year.
The truth is that patrons don't care this much about the regularity of the update, nor about their constancy in regard of the time past waiting. You do, good for you, but you aren't part of the majority.
