"Chummer" - we differ on "potential" between the apathetic face of the daughter and the resting bitch karen face of the mother, as well as the lack of character development and backstory - not to mention no vision of what the actual journey of the characters would be, along with their interactions and such. After the inciting incident, nothing progressed beyond a glacial pace. It wouldn't pass muster in any 1st year intro to creative writing course.
Just because we disagree doesn't mean I am using any style you wish to name. I bring forth the facts and relate them as they are seen. That you are unable to accept those facts and that reality - whether or not you have been critical of any aspects of the developer's management style in the past - speaks volumes on your adherence to nostalgia over actual data and information.
Within the first 6 months of development, the game stalled. Promises were made, statements about development were made, but nothing ever came from them. The developer continuously said things were progressing in development, and never showed anything for it. For years nothing at all occurred. The developer re-emerged from hiding and promised continuation on the storyline for months. About a month (or less? - I will admit a little fog here) from that deadline - the announcement that all that work for the update was scrapped and going to move into a different direction. Since that time, it's been experimental concepts that appear to use many of the same assets over and over with different levels of zoom and angles. Let's also not forget the talk of the developer hyping up his dive into motion capturing in 2019 and how that will progress the title. Over 3 years later and nothing that involves motion capturing exists.
So yes, there never was anything there. It was all because it was one of the few on the market at the time and larger numbers of audience were coming to the adult gaming world and so this title got a lot of attention, but that's it.
