What others are forgetting is that there's only one Dev, DoggieBones, development takes a ton of time, but I don't blame people for being impatient.
Doggie should honestly give out some teasers now and then.
No one is forgetting that. People have a weird habit of putting words in others' mouths on the internet...
On the topic of teasers, I've reiterated multiple times over years now how they used to do polls/teasers and had at least weekly interactions with their Patreon/Discord. Part of why so much faith has been lost is because Doggie (in a fashion that is weirdly common for furry gamedevs) slowly interacted less and less and gave fewer and fewer updates, until we got to what we've had for the last year and a half of Doggie posting
maybe once on their Discord just to let people know they're not dead. We are otherwise waiting 6-7 months for a random release with
another combat update and one, maybe two enemies if we're lucky.
Edit: I just want this to be clear since people always pull the "lol impatient coomers" defense, it should not be controversial or in any way debateable that someone is
objectively bad at communicating with a relevant community/medium if the first thing they feel the need to mention when making an interaction is "hey, just so yall know I'm not dead". It may unfortunately be very normal nowadays for people to have the social skills of a trapdoor spider (they are incredibly antisocial loners, in case that wasn't known), but should we really be going out of our way to
defend something that is objectively, undeniably awful to have to deal with? And for probably the 20th time I've said it in this thread, I think Doggie does great work, it's just unbearably fucking slow and they're equally as slow at explaining why it's slow.
