Ok, let's unpack this hot take...

Let's see what Ocean said about this "abandoning" WIAB in the SG thread back in January 2020. I'll highlight the relevant part for you just in case.

That quote came out months BEFORE the last update of the original WIAB. Put another way, even the original WIAB is a prequel to SG.

Strike ONE.

And also in the same month...

Or back in May 2020. I'll hightlight the relevant part for you again.

Ocean literally told us WIAB is being reworked, not abandoned, and that the two games, even pre-reworked, are deeply connected.

All of the above was AFTER SG started in May 2019 but BEFORE WIAB (original) v0.6 beta came out at the end of May 2020.

Oh by the way. This is what's in the WIAB changelog:



That's right. The "new" WIAB is literally labelled as a rework. It wasn't abandoned.

Strike TWO.


Prequel and sequel are relative terms. A prequel is an earlier story in an overall story arch. A sequel is a latter story in an overall story arch. There is no "main one" as you claim. Since The Phantom Menace is a prequel to A New Hope, it automatically makes A New Hope a sequel to The Phantom Menace. (True SW fans please forgive my blasphemy.)

Strike THREE.

You're out.

Word of advice - the confused one is you, the "newbie", not the rest of us, as you weren't even around when all of this "rework WIAB" talk was happening live, while we were there actively discussing it.
Great answer, Just to clarify something, in general, in almost all environments where the idea of "prequel" is used, this means to tell a story that is set before another already told. In general it is not recognized as a "sequel" to something like this example. Besides, "the phantom menace" doesn't exist, it's the parents. :mad: :KEK:

Hello,

So... It's going to be a short log today.

Chapter 5 Status

All renders are finished for now.
I currently have 2031 still renders and a few animations plus a 1:30-minute cinematic done.
With the main rendering part done. Now all that's left is:
- Postwork
- Polishing
- The phone
- The cinematic for Chapter 1 that replaces the MC Marla scene. But the Artist is still fucking around with the invoice.

I'm still waiting for it, even though he told me he'd send it to me yesterday... But I won't delay the update for it and if he hasn't sent me the invoice in the next five days, I'll drop him and find something else.

I always add some more renders during polishing/testing. I assume we'll have around 2100 by the end of it.

I will now dedicate my time to the phone and it's coding but damn do I not enjoy coding...

Previews 4K attached

There's a preview block but weeeeell... Here are two atmospheric previews

The development now becomes a little more unpredictable, especially with coding.
I'll keep you guys updated and I'll do my best with the phone.

We're almost there.

By coding the phone, does he mean the chats that sometimes the girls send to the MC?
I've noticed that those chats use the real time of the operating system (Windows for me), I hope Ocean will change them so that they have a pre-set time depending on the hour of day in the game.

Pretty sure you have to anyways, half of chapter 2 and the start of chapter 1 are getting reworked in the up coming update. I agree with the last point too, though other girls doesn't have as much spotlight as her so far

Not just that, but also the social network "Aurora". Think of it like the cluck in BADIK. It's going to add something more in the college life.
