This.
it's done like that for a reason dude, you'd understand if you paid attention. He was depressed as shit, pretty much having a midlife crisis. Dunno how old you are so you might not get it, but it happens to people. He eventually gets in shape etc. as explained later in the game. Again, you need to pay attention to the details.
I kinda disagree. Nicki still leaves with the cash going back to Brent and just gets sucked back into his bullshit like the current chapter says. I really don't think there's much, if anything, that would have to change.
There used to be a store near my house, it moved. They published several notices on Facebook and had a pinned one on Twitter, they also had a sign on their front door for four months announcing the move but the day after they moved their FB page was flooded with complaints about them moving without notice. Neon has been talking, off and on, for about a year about re-working Chapter 1 and why he wanted to do that and why Guy was going to be a bit of a wreck in the new first chapter. This feels similar to the store thing.
The previous version of the game has mentioned this is what Guy was like until he got the money and got in shape. Since the new version starts a bit earlier, it now actually shows that original version of the Guy, rather than just tell. And the shaping up now happens in the game itself, before the subsequent chapter which is after a time skip.
Sadly, probably will be abandoned in 2027 after remake of chapter 5.
I haven't played it yet, i'll do it later, but have the content about nicki going to MC asking for money been cut? That's a shame. It was a really good arc IMHO. A rough start for the 2 but very realistic, dramatic and squallid. A great bottom of the barrel from where to lift up.
. Then can continue with the topic of this game..The timeline is now a bit different, and Nicki doesn't visit Guy for money specifically (she isn't even aware he's got it) I agree that it's a bit of a shame, since i liked how the original was arranged. But then quite a few people didn't like it, and the dev himself wanted to make Guy/Nicki relationship as more defined friendship thing. So it is what it is.
Only chapter 1 is remade, other chapters will remain more or less the same and will be released soon (this month I think), also chapter 11 is coming in June.
dunno yet, the new CH1 remake released is a standalone version which doesn't include the rest of the game.
Or they could just... not fucking complain about something they get for free.
