He is not obliged to finish the books for us. How many times have comments like these been commented?

And nobody said he was obligated (which is how you spell that word) just that it’s been a decade and maybe it’s about time an author write a book, preferably one in this series, instead of other books and TV shows and swimming in his money vault Scrooge McDuck style and complaining online about ‘toxic’ and ‘entitled’ fans instead of just doing his job.

That IS how you spell obligated! Well done! But that is also how you spell obliged, which is a different word with a different meaning (although similar).
"Doing his job". I hear that a lot; like "Godd... it's his job to finish these books!" Well, yeah.. but doesnt the man have a right to change jobs? Doesn't the man have the right to do what he wants to do without people being horrible to him, sending him death threats, and yes, being toxic? And then doesn't he have the right to complain about those people?
Writing a book is very hard, very exhausting, and it can take years. We shouldnt expect someone to do that if they dont feel up to it.
