Real problem being they probably use the money earned from the pre-order of THIS game to make their second game instead of using it to do this game. They shouldn't do that at all. That's not what people paid for.
I don't think so. They just begin 2 games at once, but it would be better to begin just 1 at a time. If you want more news you can follow their twitter. Honestly, I really want to play this game that I bought 2 years and a half ago, but I really prefere that they take their time to do the game rather than have a bad game that was launch just because of the dev time that was too long. So it's better to wait and play a good game than have it now and it's sloppy. I'm not really sure their are alone or a group. For me their are alone, because they say "I" in their posts, so if it's the case, it's really hard to create a game alone. They have to write the story, draw the character and BG, search/create musics and coding the game itself. It's not an easy work.
If every one is blaming the creator, it will not help them to get motivation :/
And I understand that I think that there is only 2 or 3 routes on (Idk how many, but if it's all the characters that we see on the page then it's a lot) and if it's not the half of the job done yet, it will take a lot of time to finish it... But I prefere to have all the characters with a route and wait longer.
So just cheer on the creator will help more than blaming <3
