The latest news is that I have a lot of different small projects on my plate and this is one of them, and I have no ETA for it. I would very much like to see this mod/DLC finished though, but I'm guessing it's going to take at least a whole dedicated weekend just for the coding and also plenty of days for gathering all the data about when each What If should be unlocked.
My intentions were that it should follow the milestones reached in the game, and not unlock before "X" has happened. So if MC has sex with Brenna in a What If, it shouldn't be unlocked before he does that in the game.
Buuut… if anyone has already gathered all that data, it would be of great value to me! Even better, if they have taken notes on which stage# for any given girl that their event needs to have progressed to, for a What if to not be ahead of the game in terms of lewd milestones.
Well, I did some analysis and here you go, these are what I believe to be the logical points for the What Ifs to be unlocked in the game
The 1st 3 and the 7th are the easiest, as they split off from clear and defined points in the game.
-the 1st one from chapter 4 Catherine birthday party
-the 2nd one from the Chapter 6 Lucia walk
-The 3rd one and the 7th one from the very beginning of the game after you have the talks with Hunter.
The rest are harder, but:
-The 8th one occurs after Ophelia had vaginal sex with MC, so it obviously should unlock at the very end of the current content.
-The 5th one definitely has to be after Ophelia discovers the hacker in chapter 8. Preferably after chapter 10 when you meet him again, but that isn't required.
-The 4th and 6th (random visit to the jungle, random "mold attack") are completely outside the timeline, so you can put them at any point after chapter 1 and before chapter 9 (as Drew isn't involved)
So you have:
-2 unlocks in chapter 1
-1 unlock in chapter 4
-1 unlock in chapter 6
-1 unlock in chapter 10
-1 unlock after finishing chapter 11
I recommend that 4 and 6 be placed after finishing chapter 3 and chapter 8. I think that would be the best placement so the player doesn't have to wait more than 2 chapters max to unlock the next What If.
PS: I think you should update the "expected time until the next chapter" post so it talks about chapter 12 now. I am curious what would be the expected release date for it based on the recent trends. Adding a part 2 about when the next "What If" will most likely come will be nice too.
2nd PS: I think you should also add the fanmade "Ophelia's Date Night" What If (after getting the OK from its creator of course). If you do, it should be in chapter 3 after the Eric event.
