True, neither is perfect and i think no one really expects them to be.
But season one was one of the most horrible bugfests i have seen so far. It wasn't even hard to find bugs, it were mostly plain obvious ones (often game breaking) and everyone which would have played it once would have seen them.
Add to that that nearly every single update had these bugs.
True, there were a lot of bugs in season 1. The problem with doing such an ambitious game and not really knowing what you are doing. But they seem to have learned by their mistakes.
Yes, i meant more the main story, key scenes and story direction. That ther are changes or additional scenes with LI's is to be expected and i like that they made Nora an LI.
It just feels like they have no particular direction for the story, like the fight club which was basically non existent for most of the game, and other scenes like Penelopes VN project feel just like filler cause they had no other idea what to do.
Yeah, maybe he had some idea in the beginning but I doubt there are any real plans with the main story. It's basically a TV-show where they only plan the current storyline. Maybe he has an idea about the ending.
As for Emily...i think that would be difficult, or at least they would need change a lot of things. I don't have an idea where they are even plan to go with her since they made her leave.
They really messed up her story. I know she was never planned to be a main LI but some players really liked her. The way they handled her in Act 3, pure character assassination.
One scene i hope they change would be Penelope, their first time feels just strange. They had the nice date and she is all about no sex yet and overall romantic, next day yeah let's do it in the dean's office...nothing against that, but it feels just not fitting at that time and how their date night ended.
YES! So much THIS! It made no sense at all and was just done to satisfy the porn-players who only wanted new sex scenes.
A other character i liked was Riley before the europe trip and she falls in love with half of the LI's, but yeah not much hope for changes there.
They seem to have no idea what to do with her.
But so far the overall writing of the latest writer, is the one which i like the least.
That would be Undergrad Steve himself. He took over after Episode 2, rewrote parts of it, wrote Episode 3 and is now rewriting Episode 2 more. He hasn't written for the game since Act 1 of season 1. But some of the characters changed were fleshed out after he stopped writing so maybe that explains things.
I liked the style of the girl who wrote Act 3 of season 1 (except for what she did with Emily) and some of Episode 1 of CK2.
Fuck, are they looking for writers?
I think they still are, yeah. For now, Undergrad Steve has to write it all himself and that means longer development time.
