Hey thanks for taking the time to read my feedback & the response. I'm glad you like some of my ideas & I understand, with the game pretty much being finished, naturally this one is already in the can, but maybe they might come in handy for future projects. On the matter of the vengance route being a bit to extreme, & please don't take this as me being argumentative, because that's not my intention by any means, I do understand what you mean, but I would like to offer some thoughts on why I don't think it might be as extreme as it might seem.Hi! It was interesting to read the various endings you thought of. Unfortunately, the next release will conclude the game, so we actually already have all the scenes planned and changing the plot now would be a bit of a problem. For several reasons, we prefer not to expand Misumi too much, especially for art-related issues. It's much more likely that I'll keep these tips in mind for the third game.
I liked all of your ideas except the revenge one. To be honest, I think that making Shoma a killing machine is a bit extreme. For example, when I wrote the part whereI thought it was already somewhat over the top, since Shoma has a very mild nature. But adding more choices and also having routes that differ greatly from each other is definitely a nice suggestion!You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Anyway, thank you very much for the message! It's always a pleasure to read people's thoughts.
As Tim McIlrath said, "When faced with tragedy, we come alive or come undone". & in much the same way that "hiz dick so gud" is a cheap, but effective plot device for sending the female love interest down the path of destroying her loved ones & relationships, it's equally the same for the MC to discover the betrayal & that event triggering blinding hatred & rage. Obviously him suddenly having a lamb to lion transformation is absurd, but if approached the right way, it could be done believably & very realistically.
Now realistically, since Misao essentially IS Shoma's life, discovering that's been stripped away from him, in his mind, a trauma of that life shattering magnitude can easily render him a man with nothing left to lose, no incentive to preserve his own life, a blinding hatred & a cold laser focus on getting payback. Obviously it's not everyone's cup o tea, I'm just saying that if it's approached right, it can be done well, realistically & reasonably, plus could be a major enhancement to the story.
That all aside though, I'm glad that you do like my other ideas. I look forward to what future projects may hold. I'd even be happy to help contribute if you like, no charge. I just like good stories. one of my hobbies for about 10 years was collaborative story writing & text RP with a group of friends, so if my ideas appeal to you, feel free to contact me, I'll gladly help with writing & story boarding.
