honestly, and i'm being very serious here, we talk about the game more on F95 than they do on the patreon/discord
the patreon feed (outside of maybe the last 2 weeks, heh, sorry) is nearly dead, and the discord is nothing but Shauna PP memes (those aren't too bad actually) and spam-gifs (those suck, honestly)
i'd say the "fanbase" is actually more active here than on his official pages, which, probably pisses him off too, maybe moreso because he might not actually "trust" his discord fanbase BECAUSE he knows they will just tell him what he wants to hear
F95 comes around "oh...that's how they really feel" , and back into depression/poor decisions he goes ... i mean, let's be real ... when he is having anxiety over a release, it can't be his Discord's expectations he's worried about, is it?
might come across conceited, but i think he's scared of **US**
