There is far too much whining on this thread. It’s simple, if you’re tired of waiting for updates, stop your pledge and find other games to enjoy. Then if a significant amount of progress is eventually released and you’re happy with them, THEN make a payment or two here and there that represents your perceived value of what you’re receiving. People here are way too involved with speculating “what’s REALLY going on” with BD. I suggest don’t worry about it. As far as the thousands of completed renders my guess is that he got analysis paralysis figuring out the direction of the story so instead of planning he kept creating images that he thought might possibly fit somewhere eventually, confusing activity with productivity. Is Mackenzie real? Who cares? If it’s really just BD, but having an imaginary friend is helping him to get organized or to cope with his self-inflicted pressure, then so be it.
Just lighten up and move on everyone. Set your expectations to nothing for all games on here, and then be surprised when something does get released. But please stop sending money to devs based on what you hope they may do someday, or to devs you’re not happy with. You’re just torturing yourself doing that. And don’t even spend too much time on threads like this. I only jump on this thread about once a month out of curiosity, but I never expect anything new. I’ve probably paid a total of $300 to various devs over the past two years and it was only AFTER I had enjoyed an entire game or a major release.
