I have 4 questions:
. . .
1. I can only say that I'm still working on the rewrite, and currently plan to complete it. I tentatively plan to adjust the DLC as necessary, but that's assuming that doing so will be possible. I won't make any promises though; this is just a hobby.
2. Yes, I think I'm still months away from completing the rewrite.
3. I'm not sure what you mean by making "incest POP". In my rewrite the dialogue is much more graphic and there's a lot more talking and a lot less thinking. So, in that way, I think
all of the scenes "pop". But my MC doesn't go after his little sister
because it's taboo; their relationship evolves, and it seems right to both of them. They're not doing it just because it's transgressive.
As for the similarities and differences between the mods:
Both mods re-incorporate the content from before the Patreon debacle, mine because I originally based my mod on PowerBabe's mod.
I understand and respect PowerBabe's choice to hold close to the original game. I've played the game with the Content Restoration Mod (CRM) and I think PowerBabe's rewrites of the dialogue are an unequiivocal improvement over the original game. (I get the impression that PowerBabe hasn't tried my mod.)
But, obviously, I think the game has more fundamental problems and opportunities for improvement, and think it's worth creating a more radical alternative that can exist alongside PowerBabe's work.
Speaking mechanically, the CRM largely rewrites dialogue
within the existing structure of the scenes, preserving the sequence of images within those scenes, and the sequence of scenes within the game. I have not tried to preserve those, because I think the story can be told more erotically and more plausibly by changing both. I've even reordered several major events in the story, and in one case combined several events into a single event while preserving the overall plot.
My rewrites of the erotic scenes play more like movies than those in the original game because I've added (simple) animations and used transitions to make the scenes more dynamic.
PowerBabe's right that the risk of any rewrite is that it loses what people liked in the original, and I've been willing to risk making changes that some people might not like. For example, the original game has a story in which a lesbian is converted into bisexuality by a magic dick. I think that's a kind of story that some dudes like, and I don't want to yuck their yum, but that's just not how homosexuality works. So the story was too absurd for me, personally. So I gave her a more complex sexuality, with a much more taboo kink.
4. At this point the mods have diverged sufficiently that they're no longer compatible. Choose one or the other. Or try both! It's not terribly difficult to switch between them (there are instructions in the thread for my mod) but I'd recommend against trying to load up a save from one in the other.
