But, there's so much shit that poisoned
Intertwined, that I'm not sure for how long I can take it

agreed. I can't put my finger on it exactly but I think it started somewhere around episode 7 or so? game seemed fine until then. since then... I've playing less and less routes with every new episode because I just can't make myself go through the same dull story over and over. this time I've only played a layla save the first day and made myself play an elena route last night on skip. just to see what their conversation looked like and if there's any layla reaction.
and the more I thought about the game in the last few days, the more I'm sure I'm dropping it. weird, stupid shit in the story, awful cliffhangers, secret paths... all characters making the same retarded faces over and over...
now, I have cut my games to about 4 in the past year because I both got bored of playing literally the same game with somewhat different looking characters over and over and I just don't have the patience to wait for almost a year to see a story progress. let's say taking a new game at episode 2 now. it will probably have 10 episodes total. what's the estimate for that game to be finished? and, as we know, dev times get longer and longer with more "complications" as the story moves on. most games take roughly 9 months to release a new episode and intertwined was... I wouldn't say tolerated but it was coming down towards it recently... anyway, I've "tolerated" (for lack of a better word at the moment) intertwined because it's the first AVN I played and nyx dished out updates fairly quick for the last few episodes, with decent chucks of renders in a fair amount of time. now it took her 6 months for a 1400 render update with a promise of a big update coming up? yeah, I doubt I'll be waiting for that one. especially when you know the cliffhanger resolution is going to be something incredibly stupid.
as shogun said when he announced he won't be posting updates anymore:
"the game just didn't make the cut"
Rudimentary creatures of blood, and flesh. You touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
There is a realm of existence so far beyond your own.
You cannot even imagine it. I am beyond your comprehension. I, am Goddess Nyx.
this made me chuckle
however I have to object, you're making her seem way too smart and capable
not saying she's an idiot but the story simply doesn't show anything genius about it or her.
it just looks like a parody of mexican soap operas - overexaggerating every YO SOY TU PADRE situation by making every character who even appears in a render connected to someone. what for? for more drama of course. more drama for the sake of more drama.
