True, some ppl can't find the path to progress without a guide. It was a mistake of mine in creating an old style classic RPG, with exploration to find what to do. Lesson learned, ppl don't want to explore to find what to do, they want to explore with an objective already.
Second lesson, automatic events. It's hard to track them when there's a high number of automatic events, and that's why the Seer sometimes gives some Hints out of order. Well, I knew that would happen, that's why when you talk the first time to the Seer, she says that sometimes her visions can be wrong. To solve that, pay attention to what the girls say, they are always giving directions to what to do next too.
I'm trying new things, and PDM, for beign a sandbox, is confusing ppl too for the game don't having a "main quest". Luckly PDM for not having a main quest, it is easy to list what to do. In the next version will have a item called Book of Wisdom that list to the player what he can do, in order. In LUFA things will be different, with a more direct approach, with the player knowing what to do. The famous: "One thing each time", instead giving a lot of order options to complete the missions. And don't using Shift button to hide the text.
DUEX was my first big game and I'm happy with the result, and even happier that I could grow as a dev with the lessons learned. I'll add the unofficial walkthrough link in the first page of the game, so ppl can follow it to complete the game and enjoy this beautiful, and somewhat tragic, story. So...
Have fun~~
