It's almost time for the annual Q&A post, and this is where you submit your questions.
The purpose of the Q&A is to be able to ask me questions about my games and game development that you've wondered about.
I will answer as many questions as possible in a new post in a few weeks from now.
All answers will be spoiler-free of future content, and I won't answer questions that would require me to spoil story elements.
Ask your questions in the comment section below.
If you have several questions about different things, I'd appreciate it if you make separate comments for those questions.
If there are repeat questions from earlier Q&As, there might be an updated answer. Don't hesitate to ask if there's something you wonder about.
There are several past Q&As that you can read if you're interested. You can reach them from last year's Q&A posts here:
Past Q&A posts
Q&A - 2024

The episode count is the important question here. Just how much has it changed from the 14-16 from last time.

All jokes aside, this is the real question, I HOPE ITS STILL 16 for real
I don't mind what it is to be fair, but if he comes back and says 14, there's a good chance the next one most if not everything gets tied up before a 2 episode epilogue.

With 16 it's a bit harder to guage, but I'd estimate at least 2 episodes before we move into epilogue stage.

I’m not exited for a epilogue stage, I’d rather stay what there is now

Yes it could. But I don't think that is where DPC have put a trap. Just update your scrappy mod and you should be fine. Or if you used sanchos drop his save fixer in there. If it persists you will probably have to restart. First try the Sancho save fixer.
I already have the updated version of the scrappy mod (Fix2), and since sancho doesn't seem to be here anymore, I don't think his mod will be updated anytime soon. Well, next playthrough I will go without it
Thanks anyway

I mean last Q&A he said 14-16 episodes with the last season being different from rest as its endings and the likes.

Now people will throw that 16 episodes around like there's still 5 episodes of story building/character development left.

While yeah that's true. It's gonna be x amount of story/development and then Y amount of epilogue and endings.

My point is there's going to come to a point where this game gets, more kinetic and plays like it's on rails. We are perhaps closer to that point than most realise. Just how close. Well that's the question.

Yeah then I doubt your problem was mod related. Start over is the better option. If you want to change some variables and stuff then use URM Its not intrusive like other mods.

Hmm you’re right, I don’t think I want us to be this close to the end

The end might be close but the amount of time its gonna take is not that close. I might not even be alive when this game eventually gets done. I am already 50 :ROFLMAO:

For future episodes and related festives-

12 gives new year. And another crossroads moment. Like Josy Maya breakup, choosing certain SGs as LIs.

13, now we finally reach season 3 and we have picked our LIs even among SGs, nice moment for a valentine.

14 will be March so Spring break? Or should it be in April?

Should it end here and rest be epilogue or continue further, i don't know. I hope we get 16 episodes. Though the story has picked quite a pace. If we get 15 and 16 we will have full year in college.

I'm sure that the 16th episode would be the ending but 13-15 would be the epilogue with some more choices to make. Especially with the newer characters like Bianca, 'Cindy', maybe Tara/Tiffany. I have no doubt there'll be some choices for Quinn, Lily and Riona too. Like for instance, the backlash of fucking around with both Quinn AND Riona at the same time.

Haha again this is what's difficult to gauge. Without knowing really how much is left it's really hard to estimate at all.

Episode 12 is definitely normal so that's another 15-18 months as a fair estimate

After that who knows?

For arguments sake let's say 14s the end 13/14 are epiloguey more akin to the interlude that took 7/8months to do.

Well it could be done in 3 years

Anymore than that, we'll that's unknown regions and we have no where near enough data to guess.

We will see what happens. It is going to pretty weird around here when the game is finally complete. I wonder what is going to happen to everyone. As no other game around have as much discussions. Where is everyone gonna move on to. I am sure DPC will probably make another game. But yeah I don't think he will start straight after this.
