Theres no way Vanjas making enough money with how they act. I bet ya shes got maybe 1-2 more years before it all falls apart.
Well, there are a lot of abandoned (scam) projects that have quite a lot of income from Patreon even years down the line of ZERO updates (though Patreon did regular updates where payment won't process etc.).
Everyone on this site probably has heard of or experienced at least one scamming dev.
What I try to say is that there are probably enough people that pay Vanja anyway. Either they have no overview on their budget and/or forgot to opt out of paying her. Or god forbid, pay her for these stupid VIP perks. Nevermind which is the case, she does enough money to keep coughing up the same art for years and years AND have the audacity of doing massive anti-piracy installments AND have one of the most retarded "VIP" subscription system.
People still pay her enough for going through these massive hoops. Unless she is willing to go massively in debt (which I doubt any person with an attempt at a regular income will do), she has enough people paying her whatever she wants...
