People who enjoy a game have no obligation to the dev. My relationship withnthem is purely business. I pay for something and I expect it to be 100% functional and feature complete in release, ideally never needing to be patched because it was released in a perfect state. The dev must sink or swim from the merit of their games. I have long since outgrown loyalty to a brand, dev or any product. I'm not saying doxxing is right, I'm saying fans owe the devs NOTHING.
Considering it was a one person dev, if it isn't "right" then you probably owe the person the basic humanity and morality to defend them from injustice. Especially if a fan wanted the game to actually get finished.
