I think what they want to say with this is that you get any update until the time a future V3 is released. That is years away at the moment.
Of course, I understand that.
What I mean here is that there should not be a situation where we reach the V3 release in this state and still vertical writing is not implemented. -

Non-Latin language support like CJK, RTL and CTL is very poor in affinity. And the company even said that this will take a long time to implement and they have other things to focus on. So I won't expect a fix in the near future.
Since V2 was announced as a replacement for V1 and the official announcement that V3 will be released as well, it is not a good idea to continue to not add vertical writing functionality.
As long as Affinity supports at least Chinese and Japanese versions, ignoring those features is like wasting money on translations.
In fact, there are many Japanese users who left Affinity in despair over the lack of vertical writing in V2.We are well aware of the cost and time required to implement non-Latin texts.
That is why we would like to take this opportunity to remind you of the importance of those text features and ask you to start developing them.I'm sorry if my English is strange because I don't usually touch English at all 😢

Let me add from the side.
In Japan, vertical writing is used not only in ancient texts, but also in novels, manga, and other familiar texts.
Therefore, software that does not have a vertical writing function is not the way to go.- baoyu, Distill7, huangzhikang and 2 others

I am a Chinese user and urgently need the vertical text function
Sorry, I heard that vertical writing is not used much anymore in the continent, so I described that only Japanese users use vertical writing.
In any case, I am very happy that more and more comrades want to use vertical writing.

I'm sorry that I'm not good at English.
I'd like to use the vertical writing in Japanese.
Vertical writing functions are essential in Japanese, especially for DTP software such as "publisher".
Japanese creators are currently hesitant to purchase the product simply because it does not have this feature.
I am afraid that only Japanese are the only users of this system, but please consider implementing it.

Vertical ordered text for CJK users
in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products

I am genuinely wondering why Affinity did not implement the vertical writing feature in this paid update.
If that were the case, both new and existing CJK users would have clapped their hands and purchased the universal license.
Well, if they were going to do such a nasty thing like implementing vertical writing immediately after the discount period, I would understand (in this case, I feel sorry for those who didn't buy it).
