Finally there will be something to do. I’m curious to see how the story will continue.

Most of us are, it's a damn good story after all, the downside is, at this painfully slow release schedule with barely one update a year (last update was on Aug 18th, 2024), my worries regarding the game's future are only increasing over time.

Add to this the fact that most saves are probably gonna get borked again and your favorite character will barely be getting any content (character dev, build-up with the MC and sex scenes), IF they're in the update at all, and you only add to the big pile of cons on the 'pros vs cons' list for supporting the artist and his team... not enough $$$ means slow or even slower development for what's, hopefully, still worthwhile content.

I know it sounds harsh, but math isn't exactly smiling in Knight and his team's favor, and I do hope they gonna prove me wrong by eventually completing their project.

Gonna stay skeptical and keep my fingers crossed to, hopefully, jinx it until given at least one good reason to make a change in the way I'm seeing things for this game's future.

man I almost want to replay the game but I did that last update and my backlog is full enough especially with 2 games I have to replay cause of broken saves 1 of those updates not being out yet

Don’t worry, it’ll go quickly. There are no unnecessary freeroams or other puzzles, so it should be fast (and hopefully that doesn’t change)

Year-long updates have basically become the standard. And the fact that your Li won’t get the time you wish for her always hurts. We’ll see what comes out of this update. I just hope more people get interested, and that it motivates Knight to work a bit faster.

oh yeah I'd have no problem replaying this if saves did break was more talking about 2 other games that are pretty long that had or will have saves broken confirmed which is holding me back from replaying this unless I have 2. That and a quite a few updates im behind on kind of requires a full replay cause I skipped to many updates

I haven't played in a few updates. This is one of those games thats better if you let it simmer for awhile.

eh not for me it's a play right away game im never disappointed , so far. But it helps I do like the story and all the LI. While Grace may be my favorite won't be a big deal if there is an update with little Grace time

Yeah i don't play any game every release. I let them buildup for a year or 2 then binge em.

Yeah I only have a handful are a must play ASAP. otherwise other updates I play when im in the mood for them which is why many im 2 or more behind. This game however falls under the play ASAP for me.

There's still so many games here i haven't played. Hell i didn't find out about origin story until a week ago so i have plenty of things to do while i wait for game updates.

Haven't even played broken promises for 2-3 updates so i can't wait to play it again once the new version comes out.

I once made up a dev log and posted with a bunch of numbers in it in the intertwined thread. Almost everyone believed it but the mods were prepared.

That’s what happens when you follow a dozen games and talk in different places. Sometimes you forget where and what you wrote about, and that’s why it’s easy to make a mistake.
