ICSTOR is a top earner on Patreon, but, again, he's published 7 games in 4 years, all of which have had very good to excellent graphics, and he's earned the patrons he has. It's quite possible for a dev with that kind of output to experience burnout. I don't really see any clear evidence of "milking" his patrons. I do sometimes wonder about people who pledge 20+ per month...that's a lot to layout to support a game. But I think the average support is around 5 bucks a month per patron for his game. If you're putting in a buck a month, complaining about "milking" sounds ridiculous. At 10 bucks a month, I guess it's okay to bitch and moan a bit, but again, I don't see evidence he's consciously stretching things out. Shit happens.
