Yeah thought for a moment that perhaps they scrapped the new game and just turned it into a DLC, which might actually be the case.
I feel like I want to get into COM3D2, but there is so much fucking stuff for it that it really puts me off just thinking about it.
COM3D2 is already bloated. It has too many versions. Too many DLCs. (But, surprisingly, not that much content. Idk what they are using those 100GB for, but I'm sure it isn't making a ton of a difference). This creates problems with the modding ecosystem, because not all modders create stuff compatible for every version. I'd hate if they scrapped the game or if they turned it into a DLC.
The main features that revolutionized the game for me were COMSH plugin (control the maid position during sex) and Virtual Reality. They should focus on adding stuff like that. Not extra events, clothing, etc.
