So now we're getting the so called update pushed back to March. Let me guess next we'll get it pushed back until April because he doesn't want to put out the update during March Madness. Or because he wanted to redo the school uniforms and interior of the school. What a freaking joke he must of learned everything he knows from another Dev who says that his final release is coming out in March also. I wouldn't be shocked if they were neighbors or family.

This here sums it up pretty much

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
For those who have never created anything before. Some of this is obviously lies or exaggeration and some of it is probably truth. When you are creating something like this, sometimes what happens is you fall behind. Now the good devs either crunch like hell or tell the brutal truth (x will be delayed by this much), the bad ones do what BD does. They make an excuse to buy time, but they feel bad or don't want to lose support, so they promise more. The problem is they don't have the time, ability or talent to deliver content any faster, which feeds into the cycle. Pretty soon the new deadline they set comes and they have to make a new excuse, and then a new promise, and so on and so on.... Compounding the issue, is that the longer you take, the higher the expectations rise, so pretty soon you've set a standard that you know is impossible to meet, hence 'redecorating MC's home' is nothing. No one cares about that, not even BD. But he has to find SOMETHING to 'improve' the quality of his release, something to justify his delays.

Now, for the record, if this was actually a 'hobby' no one would care, but for some reason (i really have no idea why, his work isn't THAT good), he has 2800 patreon subscribers, which means he's taking in at least that much in income every month. That's quite a bit of money, more than enough to qualify as a job and right now, he's not producing anything, but he is taking in that cash each and every month, since he hasn't paused payments like other, better Devs who take some time off.

I can't say what the guy should do at this point, but its sad to see on both ends.

If you're curious about what the rest of February will look like.
We will have a post shortly after the update explaining our plan in detail but the idea for February is for Braindrop to finish modeling the house, to properly decorate the patreon, for us to catch up on the side content, and for us to release updated character sheets.

Updates will start back up at the beginning of March and we're going to hit it hard.
I don't know if I'm getting this wrong, but I see people talking about the update being delayed to march but that's not what I'm understanding from this.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but what he's saying is the update WILL be released in the coming days, then he talks about BD plans for the rest of the month, and then they will start working on updates again in the beginning of March?

not trying to make excuses for him or anything just curious ...
