I actually hate Brent after this chapter one remake. Before I was indifferent, but seeing how he treated Nicki really makes me want to kick his arse.
- Thread starter NeonGhosts
- Start date
Something I find highly interesting is how some folks here are able to hold onto two diametrically opposed realities at the same time.
Nicki didn't change at all, there was no change to Nicki, she's always been exactly how she is!
I love the new Nicki!

Nicky didn't change at all. I've always loved Nicky - even more with the additional backstory though.Something I find highly interesting is how some folks here are able to hold onto two diametrically opposed realities at the same time.

TBH I've always wanted to kick Brents ass. Now we have even more reason to but Neon still doesn't give us the option.
love her too ,she is now the number 1 girl for GUY , there isnt any girl thats close to her since she was there from the start ... but on the other side , she still leaves (and leaves guy hanging after he felt like he got her after all this time!) , and she only comes back after not finding any alternative to her troubles ? , wich is very BAD , but she is still one of the best...Something I find highly interesting is how some folks here are able to hold onto two diametrically opposed realities at the same time.

She isn't looking for an alternative to Guy really, she just doesn't want to come back and tell him that Brent burned through the $20k in a day and she's still $20k in debt. It's because of pride and embarrassment, not because she doesn't want to see Guy. And I agree, she's #1. I only have one save and it's Nicky solo path, I'm just really nice to everyone else - in exchange for nothing.

in my opinion I love the new Nicki, way better then the old one. Way sexier.
Fun fact: her model is supposedly the same with what's used in 90% of the previous iteration of the game. It was just old CH.1 where she was different.

Eh, the remake one is just for Ch1 later still she will come back tatooed.
I don't mind tatoos but some people hate it.

Depends on the tat and the person. The only thing I don't like about Nicky's tatoos is that she doesn't like them. I wouldn't *make* her get rid of them, but I kinda hope she decides to if only because no one should have to wear a reminder of a dark part of their lives, on their skin, every day, forever.

Removing big ass tatoos is not easy and the skin is damaged big time. But this is a game so magic tech can be a thing.
I hope we can give some tatoos and piercings to some of the girls in the dark route.
thats alot of effort to costumize characters , it will double or triple the dev time for such small details , not worth it

last option is more interesting tho, basically "Gas, grass or ass - nobody rides for free"
You could be right, I looked back at what Neon has said and there IS a plan to update bits and pieces through chapters 2-10. If you use search you can see what was said directly. It seems to be very minimal though, mostly focused on the Ashe date in chapter two. I personally wouldn't go as far as to believe the change for chapter one requires tossing the baby with the bathwater, but stranger things have happened. I was just pointing out what's there currently. Only the writer really knows the path a story will take until its written, ultimately have to entrust they have a satisfying vision.

We'll see. But there are several things that make me think so:
- In the remake, it's gone. It's not that the dark path has been toned down or reworked. It's simply gone. The most "dark path" thing that can happen in the remake is that you play that striptease game with Nicki. You don't even force her to do it. It's not blackmail either. At most, we could talk about manipulation there.
- In the latest updates, the "Dark path" has been losing strength and time in the game. It's becoming less important to the plot, and less interesting to play. I'm referring to the "hard Dark path," the one with rape. But the blackmail and financial domination path has also lost strength and importance, although not as much.
- It's been rumored that there are plans to bring the game to STEAM. If that's true, obviously the "Dark path" will have to be softened a lot. And rape will disappear.
And personally, I don't think it's a bad thing that the brutal rape of Nicki in Chapter 1 is gone. In fact, rape bores me. I prefer the blackmail and financial domination in Dark Path (something that's also gone), since it's much more fun than just being a psychopath. The problem I have with the remake is that everything is bland and flabby. It's like playing the early game without the Taboo patch, so to speak. And if we add to that the fact that my favorite character in the game, which was Nicki, is now an idealized woman, flawless, without rough edges, etc. Well, I'm not exactly optimistic about the game's future, honestly. But we'll see. For me, this game was the best one on this site. But if the changes follow the remake's line, I'll stop playing it. I found the remake boring to play. If that had been the original Chapter 1, I wouldn't have continued playing the game. I wish the game the best of luck, but I won't be funding it again.
Nah, not removing it, just shitting on it, then saying nothing changed.
