So it looks like the guy the dev (Jason) used for proofreading episodes 6 and 7 will be going back through episodes 1 - 5 soon. This is per a public post on his Patreon page. I will not be concerning myself with any of those 'Updated' episodes if there are no logic changes. Since the script files I provide in post #24 already 'fixed' a number of language inconsistencies even in the original work done on episode 6 & 7.
One of the things I didn't like about all the dialog, is that each person speaks exactly like all the others. Adults of certain ages forgo the overuse of contractions in English, especially if they have any level of advanced education. Some more innocent characters as written use the same level of profanity as the more let's say 'colorful' people. The same colorful people wouldn't be so formal when it comes to sentence structure. There also are too many instances where mostly street language is either improperly used or phrasing is just odd.
It is still a pretty well written game, that could be made better. It is apparent, from my short experience in this gaming genre that most people, including RoyalCandy, use proofreaders rather than using dialog editors. These proofreaders seem to only care about spelling errors and nothing else, but just because a word is spelled correctly doesn't mean it was the correct word to use in the first place.
If anyone finds errors or odd turns of phrase in any of the episode content I provided please give some feedback and I will see what can be done to correct egregious errors.
