So when can we expect to see "The Book of Helen?"Helen’s the Boba Fett of this game. Very little screentime, but adored by the fans.
Sucks that we probably won’t see any substantial content with her for a few years.

About as long as it took them to follow up Return of the Jedi...So when can we expect to see "The Book of Helen?"
The fact the dev thinks that of this games makes me think the rework will be amazing. I remember playing this game first time and being excited to carry on, it was a good story. I love SG too and the animations in that game was clearly another level so if he wants to rework its fine by me.Like the others said the reworked chapters have new storyline with totally different plots....the dev said a while back that the old chapters were a disease full of nothing but mistakes every left and right , now he is undoing those mistakes by remaking the old chapters so that it would connect acceptably to Summer's Gone.
Or they just realise that the dev's ridiculously dumb "30 chapters planned lmao" plan is laughable at best and blatant lies at worst when it's taking this long just to produce 1 chapter where you don't even have to write all the script from scratch.People get very selfish on here and only think of themselves or pretend to care about others that support it. No one is forced to support anyone and no dev is forced to update a game by your time frame. The best games on this site take a while, they are run by small groups of people at the most and usually just 1 or 2 people.. Have patience and enjoy your free content.

You do realise that he doesn't want to develop alone forever? Just think how much faster the development with two 160hour a month employes would go? This is also one reason he wants to switch to Blender, because there are many professionals working with it on a freelance basis compared to DAZ. Also the script changed apparently around >95% so no script. And he is still producing >50 still renders a day which is way more than most do and at that quality? There is no one.Or they just realise that the dev's ridiculously dumb "30 chapters planned lmao" plan is laughable at best and blatant lies at worst when it's taking this long just to produce 1 chapter where you don't even have to write all the script from scratch.
There are too many ifs in and buts in that. He can hire others to work with him but that's based on the assumption that he'll ever make so much money as to be able to afford someone else to work with him. Then there is the question of his perfectionism. He scrapped entire 6 chapters of a game because he didn't like the story or renders. Things he created himself. How do you know he'll let anyone else work with him on creative parts of the game (rendering or writing) when he is that obsessed with the game being according to his vision? Even DPC doesn't allow anyone to do that despite being this big.You do realise that he doesn't want to develop alone forever?

That's fine in the end we no nothing for certain, just know the first Chaperts in WIAB where his first renders ever done so you might understand that he now thinks they suck.There are too many ifs in and buts in that.

At this point I'm not on this thread because I expect the game to ever be finished. I don't. I'm just here because I liked the old game and I want to be here to see what new thing he has done because ik I'll like that as well.
Damn, here I thought that WIAB is one of the best and hottest (NTR) game ever.The announcement brings more bitterness than joy. Ocean is putting his health at stake and that is not right. He talks about balancing life and work, but I don't think that's enough. Evidently he doesn't have the funds to hire people, that's not an option today. As much as I have been very critical with the amount of time the remake has taken and with the lack of a more fluid and present communication, and despite loving WIAB, I honestly believe that he should continue alone with SG, which at least today is his most important project, which has more support, which is the one that can reach Steam faster to receive more income.
Too many times Ocean has said that he would not abandon WIAB, but very honestly, if he announced today that he would not continue, I would not be upset at all, I would just pass my humble support to the SG patreon.
Hope for a speedy recovery, rest and think things over.
Allow me a correction, WIAB is a promise that starts in two days (I still love the old WIAB and I am more than sure I will feel the same way about the new one) SG is a reality.Damn, here I thought that WIAB is one of the best and hottest (NTR) game ever.
This game what make this developer stands out in the first place.
Meanwhile, SG is just your typical, run of the mill, one of dozen, VN game. [trigger warning]
The New WIAB is just a promise, just like you said.Allow me a correction, WIAB is a promise that starts in two days (I still love the old WIAB and I am more than sure I will feel the same way about the new one) SG is a reality.

Hello,
Chapter 1 is going to release in two days on the 21st.
The game is done and tomorrow will be used to test and try some little thingies.
As mentioned on Discord. I got infected with Shingles a week ago and it's hitting me pretty hard.
Doc said it was caused by stress. I really need to work on my Work/Life balance.
After some pain meds, the electric nerve pain gets manageable and I have a 3-5h window in which I can work with full efficiency but I'm running on very low sleep for like a week now.
For the first time in my life, I'm actually dreading sleep due to how uncomfortable it is.
I will take 1-3 days off after the Beta release to deal with the damn shingles.
(The Beta has all content except for the gallery.)
