The problem with episodic release style of branching VN's...which is best:
Focus on one line per update?
Scene for everyone/every branch..but it's 3 lines of dialogue and 5 renders?
The problem only gets compounded the longer the VN continues. Whatever you do, you'll annoy a whole section of people...*shrugs*
The alternative for folk, strange wicked concept I know...bear with me, bear with me...is for folk to perhaps stop whining about being disappointed and skip a few updates. It's a VN, the damn world end if you don't play the latest update....
