Anytime anyone gets popular there are always copycats repeating what they do. Think of Elvis doing Frank Sinatra's "My Way" or the thousands doing the songs of Del Shannon. For movies or adult theater, long before Chloe, there were the Betty Paige and Marilyn Monroe look alikes. It takes somebody very unique and talented to stand alone with nobody even trying to copy them. I doubt anyone will ever play guitar or sing like Johnny Cash or perform like Cher or Madonna and we all know there is one and only one true Dolly Parton.
If you are wondering how can a man who loves flat chests say something big about Dolly Partain, easy to answer. Dolly breaks all the rules and norms and is an amazing exception.
As often happens, the mass public grows tired of the copycats and goes back to the originals. That in mind, the Chloe character in the plethora of games will probably go on to eternity and forever be 18.
honestly if they removed all the copyrighted materials I feel they could easily sell these games on Steam, don't get me wrong I really appreciate these games being free (and when this new game fully releases I'm actually considering paying $10 for their patreon to get it a month early) but I feel the quality is getting to the point they could charge for a chloe game in the future and people would happily pay for it to support it.
granted maybe one with more animation in the scenes, the fact that the camera actually moves around now instead of staying completely still is a huge improvement but having fully animated scenes would be incredible as well as time consuming which is why charging would be needed for something like that.
than again maybe i'm completely wrong and we'd find out that the removal of the Gif style looping animations would take away from the charm of the series, i will say i don't think the games would ever need voice acting, i suppose they could do the JRPG thing of having the first time they say something like "hey" or "whats up" before text dialogue takes over, but i don't know if that is really needed either.
i did notice however they added actual noises to the scenes in this one, stuff like wet sloshing noises, gagging sounds I even heard chloe moaning in one so that is a huge QoL update.
honestly the games could stay similar to this one in terms of innovation and it'd be fine, Bella's writing is really well done and the only reason I really don't want to play it more now is because i'd rather wait for full release with all the scenes and story. I really do hope chloe keeps being the main character in this series and there isn't just a bunch of spinoffs with other characters where chloe is only there for like a few scenes
