This is exactly what has happened. The anticipation has been built up for so long that he's worried the update will not be enough/worth the wait for some. It's ready but he's not ready to potentially face negative feedback in his mental state.
Although I do believe the overall reception would be more positive than not, it's inevitable that it won't live up to the wait for some. He would be better off releasing it as is and then taking a proper break to sort himself out. One less weight off his shoulders.

I don't support BD financially, so I can't complain. Though I am on the dev team of another game on here. So I understand some of the stress BD is under. I agreed he needs to just drop the Update, then take a break for a month or two to rest, refresh, and deal with his grief
May 23 is here and that means its our favorite attorney's birthday. I always look forward to spending more time with Anna and her delicious melons 
. And with Anna moving into town near MC that means more babymaking sessions .
Happy Birthday Anna!
Delicious!...

Ego will do that to you. The main thing people need when they release something to other people is enough humbleness to take whatever criticism that will come. You can't please everyone and there are plenty of people looking to hate.

Back when I was writing regularly my method for avoid paralysis from perfectionism was to deliberately write one part that was bad. Maybe the story would begin with "It was a dark and stormy night" which is the classic bad intro or I'd write ome dialogue that made Anakin's I hate sand speech look like Shakespeare.
Doing this meant perfection was impossible which made it easier to just write.

So let's summarize it very simply.
BD needs help.
In the meantime, he has looked and found some for his personal problems.
As for the game, it's going to be difficult.
He doesn't need and probably won't want a writer, because it's quite simply his story, which he wants to tell the way he likes it, he doesn't need someone for the graphics or coding side either.
What he could use is someone for "public relations".
Someone who just keeps this crap of eternally crying people off his back.
Someone who tells him that posting so much of your personal life on the internet might not be the best decision either.
The sad irony of the whole thing, he provides his MC with all this help dozens of times in the form of endless girls, and it takes him years to seek even the slightest help for himself...
I hope he eventually finds what he's looking for and that he doesn't lose sight of his own little family with all the shit that's going on in his life.

Its impossible to keep everyone happy, the sooner people realise that the better it is for them. idk what is happening in his life but the longer he delays it the more he will feel like that if he really is that worried that the update wont live up to how long its taken.
You need to stick to your vision when it comes to storys, sure you can look at some criticisms regarding different things but if you listen to the outside noise too much it will take you away from where you wanted to go with it. Maybe he is worried that people wont support him anymore if he puts out a bad update or if its not perfect, idk. worrying too much and over analysing everything to the point where you do nothing will hurt way more than 1 bad update.

It's the bootlickers fault. They make you feel like you're not in the ground. They don't hold you accountable.
After 1year of creating renders, you can't be like what's the sequence, order. I don't know which dev makes render without sorting out the story and sequence first.

ICSTOR was notorious for that. When he still did something.

Maybe because F95 has rules for when a VN gets the "abandoned" tag and they haven't been met?

Philly makes the renders before he writes, he said so in his Q&A a couple years ago.
I don't get it personally, but it seems like art based developers tend to write around the renders. Whereas story based developers tend to write, then render. Seems backwards to me, so I guess I'd be a story based dev. Not that you can't be both though.
But the key for this kind of style (render -> write) is to have a clear idea of what the scenes are going to be, even if the writing isn't done yet. And that is really hard to do if you run into a block like BD has. He knows what the scenes needs to be... but he can't quite figure it out. So he is tinkering until it seems "right" and that adds to his problems.
