Changed the nurse 3 times, made Olivia look like a gang member, changed the milf twice, changed the mom, changed the MC, changed the house, changed the young versions of characters, changed the story...
Here I can 100% agree with You, most of the changing was unnecessary. But for me, the most sad thing is the change of Olivia's appearance.

DevLog 6:

"...in my eyes, she was always a character who was dark, full of secrets, sad, depressed, and hard, but these things were never seen. It never got much attention from me, and it's safe to say that I never quite got around to the characters having any personality. There might be something to it because I've heard many times that all the characters are similar, either visually or in behavior.
This "explanation" is incomprehensible to me. Not because I don't understand Dream's intent, but because what he wrote simply doesn't cover reality. I think that if someone is dark, full of secrets, sad, depressed, and hard, it does not necessarily show in their appearance. I wouldn't have a problem with the tattoos themselves, if it weren't for the neck tattoo, because I think it's ugly, and we'd also throw away the nose ring. Olivia's previous appearance was much more likeable, and much more beautiful, but at the same time I felt that she was sad, depressed, and secretive.

You have no idea to how many of my friends I recommend this game and once they started doing a bit of research they all pretty much called you Ocean on crack, in terms of indecisiveness.
Btw, this lukewarm criticism got me banned for life from Patreon and Discord, lol. This reaches DPC levels of soft :HideThePain:
Now thinking back this I took it as a joke, but if this View attachment 3395698

was what got me banned you have one of the most fragile egos I have ever seen and that wasn't you joking around, it was you being petty...
Am I missing something here? Or do you think Den1mo is dream?

Nah, I mean
:KEK: :KEK: :KEK: :KEK: :KEK: :KEK:

Bro Den1mo is a little bitter after he got a taste of his own medicine which he used to treat people in the SG thread yesterday.

But I really hope it's just you being green. Devs attacking each other here is the most disgusting thing I can imagine. As if there aren't enough "constructive critics" for this job.
Neb isn't a dev bro.

Or am I misreading things as usual?

Didn't you say its now happening in ch3? How is introducing whole ass new characters(Chloe), switching timeline of events(Jaz and Megan intro), taking Kimi home I assume is now the default, reworking the college scenes, reworking Susan scenes, making Oliva's lebo scene skippable etc not changing the story? You can argue semantics all you want, none of the things I posted are wrong.
Nowhere in the dev log is anything written about switching timeline of events. There are things only that some scenes are bigger. The way I see it is you go home from the hospital with Kimi and then you spend some time with her and then the Jasmine and Megan scene happens. In dev log 11 there are previews of the scene with Kimi at her house

That was the only thing I praised AFTER you made the changes, I didn't say shit about what SHOULD change, its insignificant in the grand scheme of things since for me the 0.1 graphics were good enough, I would 1000x times rather you continue the story than rework inconsequential stuff.
What the fuck are you talking about? :LOL:

This usually happens to people who talk shit. Ocean and dream banned me and I'm not whining about it so what now? :HideThePain:

In the beginning when dream left it worked that when he wanted to post something I did it and he asked me to do it. When I got banned I don't do it anymore and people like Kassandra, Devin Hesi, Den, N4lle or others do it. That's all

I think my post in SG thread was quite misunderstood. I wanted to point out that there will always be reasons why players complain about updates. If it is not a rework it will be another thing

I really thought you meant that Ocean had created so many LI's that we would, as always, die before a certain LI had a chance to get a spotlight. We always die before the next release to come out. :KEK:

Which, although partially true, if we assume that Ocean will continue to remake the first season after the release on Steam and will work at the same pace as before. But it's still quite funny, given his latest hardware acquisitions, changes in the development process and, most importantly, given the fact that no one knows the exact list of LIs, since he said a long time ago that he would not spoil this information anymore.

But, as I can see, Dream has joined the Path of Reworking, so I expect a lot of "WeWillDie"-ers to come here and give at least a little break to the SG thread. :KEK:

Players will always complain about something. If updates are slow today due to rework in the future it may be due to LIs. Point number one was that there is no point in complaining because you won't change anything anyway. Point number two was that there is no point in responding to players who complain because they will always do it. And point number three was that players should not expect that the rework will end and things will start to go smoothly. But I don't consider it something for which the ocean should be criticized. That's what remains misunderstood. It seems logical and normal to me. It's a single developer not a game company :LOL:

its all in your devlogs and some discord posts
I like how you completely ignored all the other inconsistencies in your claims that I just pointed and attempted to gotcha me, but reading failed you again.

It might have been discord, it might have been Patreon comment, It was a post where you were talking about moving their introduction scene at a later point in time, it wasn't mentioned when the scene would fit, turns out that you made your mind to have it happening after the Kimi scenes, again argue semantics all you want, but how isn't it a new timeline of events? Do words mean different things to you, lol?

Old Version: you get out of the hospital to go home, you have a chance to meet them,
New: Allegedly, you take Kimi home, spend time with her and then the intro to Jasmine and Megan happens.
So, different place, different point in time? :coffee::whistle:

Now, since I am banned and can't go there, someone else will has to verify it, or better delete it fast so you can salvage whats left of your credibility after coming in hot, calling me a liar and shit stirrer and having yet to disprove any of the things mentioned in that post. You can't, since its a satirical(I admit) but accurate compilations of changes that have been talked about during the dev cycle :Kappa:
What the fuck are you talking about? :LOL:
You tried to paint a narrative that I was supposedly all for reworks on Patreon and just talking shit here and I pointed out that the only 'rework' stuff that I spoke positive about was after the change was made, not before and ironically its the one that isn't uniquely related to this game, about milfs not looking mature enough. If you can't follow that along without frying synapses, I can't really help you.
dream banned me
Don't even try it, you aren't fooling anyone :KEK:

Talk shit such as, *checks transcript* 'I lost my hype for the game' :HideThePain:

No, thats what happens when people with the emotional maturity of a small child overreact.

Translation, running defense for clinical reworkers because same modus operandi =)))))))))))

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
If tomorrow a new really cool assets releases, odds are Dream will decide he needs it in his life and re render scenes that he already rendered 4 times just this dev cycle. Zero impulse control :Kappa:

Sure but how exactly does this mean that the story of the game will change? If lily wasn't sick or olivia wasn't our sister I would consider that a change in the story and not that you remove a choice that had no point anyway. You're just full of shit

Don't even try it, you aren't fooling anyone
I will try to apply for a developer tag thanks :LOL:

You say "rework" as if it's something bad.

I do this at my job all the time. But since we software developers are smart and highly educated gentlemen, we use the fancy term “code refactoring” for this type of activity. This sounds a lot better than a peasant "rework", and we've developed a strong theoretical basis for this shit, some of us are writing books and attending conferences with cocktails and champagne okay, with cheap coffee and cookies on how to do the code refactoring in a more efficient way, how often we should do it, etc.
You just need to cut the casual solo developers some slack, they aren't skilled enough at proper terminology!

If there's a question about their hair: Yes, both characters use a different (old) hair style when at home or during activities like workouts.
