GelonG Looks like you've deleted the post I meant to respond to... but I want to apologize for my rather knee-jerk reaction to this thread - I should've actually played it before saying anything. I was just going by the description and previews, which made it seem like literally the only thing this and the original had in common was Jack himself, heh.

Glad to hear most characters will be returning - hopefully that'll include all of Jack's companions (Selena, the Orc and ex-nun whose names I can't remember... and of course his dog!)

Can't decide how I feel about the change in prologue. On the one hand, the original's sci-fi-ish intro was... largely irrelevant (though the one dark-skinned explorer getting stranded naked and alone - possibly in Jack's time? - seemed like it could lead somewhere interesting). On the other... Azazel's story is just staggeringly depressing - not the best mood-setter for an hgame.

I'm torn on the change in Jack's objective, too - "rescue his kidnapped family from an evil king and lecherous prince" has a much more optimistic, adventurous feel to it than "kill the royal shitstain who murdered his fiancee." That said, the significant discussion of necromancy and resurrection seem to suggest a truly happy end may still be possible - and in the meantime, "Angry-Spirit Anna" could be very interesting if it's actually explored and not just Jack dreaming (plus she's really fuckin' sexy that way :p)

GelonG Good call on spoilers, I blocked out a few lines in my own post for that sake too.

Fair enough, if it's a deliberate stylistic decision then... I guess I can't really look too down on it. Still, I will miss the potential subplot regarding that one explorer (if that's no longer a thing, it wouldn't spoil anything to ask - what exactly had your plans been for her?)

As far as the dog - hey, he can always come back in an entirely non-sexual capacity if you're concerned about Patreon. Nothing wrong with that.

Yeah I still figured the family would be kidnapped. I was just talking more about his overall motivation.

Oh, cool, so those discussions were relevant. Nice. In any case I really hope there's more done with her "spirit," something that makes that version of her a character in her own right. Cause damn ;)

All 18+ scenes are avoidable... I want to try this game, and not have sex... let's see how long that lasts and I can avoid my baser instincts.... in the second playthrough, I'm definitely fucking everybody though XD

Nah, this wasn't really a first release, it was a port/partial rewrite of a game the author had already had like a year's worth of progress on. And he was working on a separate game at the same time. So whatever the reason, it's not that.

Frankly the fact that he just straight up deleted all his accounts out of the blue, Patreon included, makes me wonder if he ran into some sort of legal trouble
