It's funny to think back on the 52/52, BD takes months to release something that is "ready" and can't even release weekly dev reports, it's baffling that he chose to promise to create and release episodes every single week for a year, especially since the story has barely moved since then, most of what's released is side quests.

I think you're correct actually.

Taken from patreon faq:
  • New paid members who join a tier will still be charged when they sign up, even if billing is paused. Their first payment grants access to your backlog
I'm thinking that since I've been a member in the past it somehow won't allow me to technically re-subscribe.

The message I got also said that I was unable to "edit my pledge" which is kind of weird for a new member.

So to summarise, he is even a bigger scammer than i thought (I didn't think it was possible but here we are).
well wait up he will reappear at the latest on monday the last day in march saying he needs to unpause because he needs to pay his bills or something similiar.

The update will probably be released on april fools day, AKA supporters day.
If he posts it then it will not be the full update, he has to keep his brand image up. It will be like half the update, Ep13 still ongoing.

Or an update (report) regarding the update. That is closer to his recent branding strategy.

This is exactly what's going to happen. "I had to spilt up the Jazmine date from the rest of Ep 13 due to """""technical issues""""". Bonus points if we get the later part of the update and he has to add back in the Jaz date.

I'm going to to out on a limb, and throw a wild theory out there for the next release...

I think he is going to black screen with a little blurb on how the end of 13 has been a nightmare, so he's going to jump into 14 to get the content flowing, and he'll finish off 13 at a later date... it'll drop with the first bit of 14 (400ish renders and lets say.... 3 animations), with a promise to have more out in a few weeks.

None of this happens until May though, cause I don't think we will see anything in April, he will continue to be plagued with "technical issues", and as soon as that wears too thin, it'll be lack of funds to have internet, or his power got shut off for a week, so he had to unpause patreon again.

I think you're right on the money with this.

"Since this date is extremely important for the overall story I've decided to flesh it out more"

Incoming jasmine date pt1, pt2 and perhaps pt3.

But wait, there's more!

"The flight home felt a bit underwhelming so I decided it needed something more"

Behold: flight home pt1, pt2 etc.

And all these small chunks will have tech issues that will magically be solved right at the end of every month (but sometimes it will be life stuff getting in the way, we can't make it TOO obvious mind you) so he can justify unpausing pledges.

This is probably what the next 6 months will look like.

all he needs to do is summarize the conversation with whatsherface.i can't remember her name since it has been years since the last update..seems like years anyway and get on with the story. but whatever, i will play it when it comes out but i really don't give a shit if he ever releases anything more since he is such a pathetic dev.

The fact he hasn't made a post on patreon or on his discord ( not in his discord )

We might not even get word till next month which it will be in 4days from today.
We might not even get a update but I bet he will pull his regular start of the month charge.
With his new excuse being he's broke and he has been selling his stuff.

Let the bullshit excuses the riots ( wishful thinking ) and his cult allowing themselves to be lied too.

Kinda wild to be honest. Going from having the update ready to go and it'll be uploaded over night. To having tech issues with packaging that's causing BSoD (first time I've heard that being a thing). Gonna wind up with the date being half done and the second half coming at a later time along with the flight home. Only for THAT to get cut in 2 as well.

Wouldn't surprise me if BD drops a dev update on the 31st about unpausing because he needs the money (again) but then later says "you guys are right, I shouldn't have done that. I'll refund anyone who requests it" knowing full well his cultists wont.

Big fat disclaimer im not trying to give BD and credit or protection from the outrage he deserves but...
Nvidia (assuming that's brand of GPU he's using) has released back to back bad driver updates that have been reported to BSOD for the 4 and 5 series. So sure i can see a world where he had legitimate tech issues.

Or rather i could if it wasn't so damn constant an excuse. It's just too convienent that it happens every time. I also don't for a second believe anything about packaging issues. The only packaging issue was that he didn't actually do the work he claimed and was about to be caught in yet another lie. I'm just shocked that he thought people were A)Still gullible enough to believe him and B) Was arrogant enough to think he could garner sympathy from another lie.

Well, it took longer than I expected, but so does BD. Chapter 11 done, Throuple (probably) and a fingertip (will hopefully be found) gone, and I got to wait for a year for The Revenge of the Nerds to commence. DIK Sage run next.

And I fear I will also finish that before BD puts out the next update. :D
