All this issues and discussions for just a single update !? what about the rest updates, it becomes so boring, this game (specially the story) is the top of my fav list, the quality is so amazing but unfortunately there is leak of persistence and passion from the Suzinak's side
and i wanna thank you
Asmodeus_ for your respect and work i hope your story was covered by another hands
.
Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate it!
Unfortunately, that's what I notice too; a lack of consistence and passion. And your thoughts echo mine to the point; let's say this update eventually comes out, what about the next one? Do we have to wait for another year? I'm a creator and I don't have that kind of patience.
And here's a weird thing with writers and writing in general. Some ideas/books/novels come to a writer like inspiration, like a muse (it's a bit abstract, don't judge too much). If you --as a writer-- don't write it down at the point that the idea comes, then that idea goes away. There are several reported cases of authors that write unbelievably similar stories/characters/books etc. and they have no relation to one another. The first author had written down all the details, but never found the time to write it. Then comes the second author and writes the exact same novel. The first guy reads it and is shocked. I remember hearing articles where the authors are dumbfounded by the phenomenon, and other cases where the first writer accused the second for stealing their idea
And I see that myself with my old stories. Some are almost 10years old. Those that are unfinished, I still remember what I wanted to write about them, or how the characters would develop. And after all these years, these ideas no longer excite me. As if was a can of cola that's now flat. I can still write them down, but the excitement would be missing.
My point here is... I can't hold on to this story for a long time. It needs to be done and out. And move on to other things. Otherwise the story/idea will become flat over time creatively. Not to mention that the readers/players would have moved on to new more exciting stories/games.
