Resident Post: Where I'm at currently.
Hi folks!
I didn't really want to upload a post with "Hey everyone, I'm still fixing content you've already seen" but it's been a while since I posted anything so I'll just fill in the blanks on what's going on.
So obviously big changes had to be made to the game. Removing Duncan's content wasn't much of an issue; I deleted the M&D's bar scene, the CGs alongside it and just reworked the Mod Shop sequence and it's switches. Sorted.
Paul on the other hand is a bit trickier because he's burned into mandatory content so I had to go through every event and remove / rewrite and some even completely remake from the ground up. This was depressing work if I'm honest, just snipping countless hours of work away but there's no point concerning myself with the negative feeling surrounding it, it had to be done.

This is a CG from the remade scene where Sharon returns.
Another scene that had to be reworked was the Aoife scene at the back of Theo's. This scene is so old that I had to find my old hard-drive and plug it in to get access to it, I decided to "remaster" the scene and make adequate changes to it to save my having to visit it again (a couple of examples of the remaster can be seen below). This one will play extremely similarly, it's just censored I suppose.

Once I finish rewriting the Aoife scene I
think that's everything in order and I can begin playtesting to make sure there aren't any game breaks. With Paul removed and so much shifted around, it'd be easy to miss something and as hard as I try to think about ways of testing it; I'm afraid that I'm actually gonna have to play the entire game through just to be on the safe side.
It really is a crap situation, it's tough to even consider what I might've missed because there are just so many events in the game but alas, onward we march.
As for current content, for a while there it was standstill but I have been back and forth recently adding a new CG here and there just to try keep my sanity topped up. Hopefully I'll be back on track this week for the unveiling of Lisa's "outfit" for the remainder of Jayce's Party <3
