Vidal the king of Pervert OK You're right. Give we him a chance. It would be a shame about the pretty girls :cool: ...But the Beard of this guy........
yeah I'm not fond of the Beard myself

and I thought the reason he looked so run down and tired was because he was in a mental institution but mc look like that before

looks like he's been training his entire life

to live in a mental institution









but all joking aside the developer seems like a genuinely nice person


and seems to be serious about fixing the problems so we can all enjoy the story

I'm struggling to understand where this game is going my mind is frying like an egg just reading the dialogue I'm trying to hang in there though...
that is exactly how I feel something needs to change or be fixed

I mean you can see the potential in the game but no one can understand it

and people who try to their brains feel like it's going to explode

the developer can understand the story because he created it

but this is my opinion and I'm not a game developer so take it with a grain of salt

what he should have done is have somebody play it that has no idea what the story is about then ask them if they can understand it or if it's too hard

and depending on their feedback make adjustments accordingly

kind of like a beta tester but for the story

Nice renders and a pretty lengthy first episode but honestly the story is a bit confusing and all over the place("abit" might be an understatement) I think it has alot of potential but if the main part of the game which is the story leaves people thinking"what the fuck is even happening rn? " then there's a major problem. There's literally too much going on and the random jumps between past and present leaves you confused. I got behind the story of MC and the hospital chick being married and him having a daughter whom he does not remember, felt like it could be a good story to base the game on having to get his memories back and having to remember the wife and the daughter, then there's the sexy doc but then the game just took a drastic turn and so much shit was thrown at the player, a feck load of characters were randomly introduced, MCs banging this girl then he's banging that girl and you like who the fuck are all these people? . I do like the fact that you can kill people tho but yeah this game seriously needs to chill the fuck out and stop being all over the place, dev needs to focus on one story and not throw all this shit at us, especially for a first release.
I hope he learns from this mistake and improves for future episodes cause rn it feels like a game with at least 3 different "main" stories as a pose to one.

Everyone is part of the same story. You experience this story from the middle, not from the beginning. You will gradually start to get to know everyone and you will make decisions about them in the process. Yes, there are some problems, both in narrative and story, but I will try to fix them all. Thanks for the criticism!

"The story starts from the middle not the beginning "Yeah that's pretty much what all of us deducted but I hope you can see why it left alot of us confused, there's just too much going on with too little context, as the player we don't have the knowledge you have about the story so to us rn it all just seems like random stuff being thrown at us from all corners. I do like the game and as I said I feel like it has alot of potential but keeping up with the story seemed like a task honestly and for such a lengthy episode alot of us still have no idea what we were actually playing/reading/watching. I'm looking forward to the next update but I hope the next one will make alot more sense, your mistake was that you threw too much into one episode instead of just focusing on a few things and gradually with each episode tap into other parts of the story. But yeah I have high hopes for this one, aside from the confusing story everything looked good.

So MC interned in hospital , then MC had an accident , and MC is killing /knocking people now after that there is MC as a cop. It seems like the events happen in different times like past , present stuff like that but there is nothing that gives the reader when the events happen. The renders are beautiful but it's a shame that the story is so confusing. This is my own personal opinion but to make the story better i think you could do the following things:
1- Remake the episode 1
2 - While Remaking the story do something that makes the readers know when those events are happening and don't put too many events in the game . I will give you an example the game have flashbacks of his memory, have the stuff at the hospital and the stuff outside the hospital. That is way too much and makes things confusing , MC left the hospital now he is in the hospital again , super confusing. So my advice is remake the story and only leave the hospital stuff and the memory stuff . When remembering something make sure readers can easily understand it's a memory MC recovered. With this tell the hospital story only and with memory flashbacks , MC remembers this name , he remembers the necklace now , and instead of after that jumping to MC outside the hospital instead of doing that continue the story in the hospital MC will interact with Cora and slowly getting his memories back he gets his memories back or some of those memories and the doctor for example thinks he is ready to leave the hospital so he leaves. After that you can put like something saying " Some years / months later " and continue with MC outside the hospital.
What i am saying is you need to make the story straightforward and easy to understand , if something is a memory make it in a way we know its a memory if the events that you show with MC pointing guns at everyone are after the hospital make that only after he is discharged from the hospital and don't go back to the past , if some events are before the hospital make the MC remember them instead of just inserting them there , if the police stuff and the going to other people houses are in different times don't put them together tell one story and only after that story is done you can tell the other . You can still have the flashbacks but is better if it is as a part of MC recovering his memory.
3 - If you don't decide to remake the first chapter and do this in episode 2 only ,the story will stay confusing you can do that but a lot of people won't be able to even finish first chapter unless you remake it .

I hope this helps because the story have potential it just needs to be told in a better way
