About sandbox was a figurative expression. What i meant was that gggb was richer in interesting and varied content, unlike ors (funny, but content updates gggb was less than in upds ors), where sex scenes with same partners are repeated for 10 chapters in a row, when game is full of unused characters. Although this applies only to the half with Lena, because Ian is good with variety.
I suppose if EK made one instead of two main characters, then the game would definitely become better than gggb. But we have what we have, namely fact that developer has to break content into two characters and this is a huge minus for game.
