Unpopular opinion but I'm fine with If he wants to move new life 2 or a remake on a different engine that is not ren'py. Since most of game is already finished. What is left. The next update will be for Lucy and the teachers. But the story is over with right? What do you think the % is?
There is one major issue with his way of doing shit - lack of gamedesign. He started a project about young gansta fakka-fakka everything that moves with 90% of npc being big-boobs-giant-ass-braindead copy of one another. And now story involves his
mo... older redhead friend dramatic internal struggle about her feelings, slowly opening herself for him. And his stepsister now is not a pew-pew fuck-fuck nerd girl - she is sex predator now. I mean - yes, it is great idea, and t is a huge leap from the character development point of view, but that whole thing is just poorly glued to main game. Coz 80% of npc is still big-boobs-giant-ass-braindead copies of one another, just different hairstyle.
Instead of dividing his project onto separate chapters he keep changing content and then tries to attach it to its old place. With bugs quantity grows almost exponentially.
Why do you think, he needs to start another project, if he can continue his battle against gamedesign and common sense while milking money from patrons?
How about making Christian doing shit just because MC refused to good night kiss him 10 years ago - and voila - making another arc about feelings and drama AND CHANGING WHOLE PLOT AGAIN with +100 to bugcount?
Problem is - how devs approach their work, refusing to learn from their own mistakes, again and again. Why do you think MNL2 will be any different?
