Raptus is not for everyone... If that was the case then i appreaciate the change. I played it and that game accomplish with the darkest kinks but if we talk about character´s personality we haven´t anything similar like the variety in SG, and of course the plot.

What we have now in SG is a depression case, not psychopathy, i think this can lead into more drama and the health process of the Mc can be really interesting to watch, as always people will decide when this change happens, we can try to be a better person from the beginning but the option to still being an asshole is there, i see it deep enough to be a good plot.

If the old Mc was a completely psycopath then this change into a better person would have been difficult to watch and the process of healing would have been a little "abrut" because a person who doesn´t value the live will need something more than pretties girls and love for healing. The new Mc is depressed and he doesn´t see live very colourfull but i´m pretty sure that he cares about his family and friends so that´s something.

I just want to emphasize again that this is just my OWN impression, this is not what the developers have officially stated.
And maybe not like Raptus, perhaps I went a little overboard with the comparison here. :)
But something closer to the Blackheart's games. As I get it back then, it was not about real physical violence, but rather about psychological manipulation, corruption, blackmail and the like. But anyway, it's gone. And for the good, IMHO.

Speaking about MC being evil. I recently played The Karlsson's Gambit, thanks to Maviarab for his banner.

While I more prefer protagonists who slowly become villains, in Olivia's case, her sudden reveal as basically Joffrey with a vagina (and brains) was done so right that I enjoyed every scene in which she discovers her true self. HOLY SHIT, I haven't seen such a ridiculously evil MC in a long time.

So if you want to play baddie, then try The Karlsson's Gambit.

truth be told 4th or 5th is basically last or close to it for me. Since I feel like I dont know enough about the rest of the girls which is why someone like Sasha doesnt make the list yet. I'm just undecided if like Mila or Victoria more lol. Not a Fan of Vanessa for no real reason and need to do a replay as I'm not sure how I feel about Zara anymore.

wish I could recall who Katie was from WiaB waiting for the steam release of SG before I replay both games . Only recall I liked Miru and didn't care one way or another about everyone else.

I don’t need to know more about Sasha, I can tell she’s wife material already with what I have.
Mila of course, she can do things beside the star you know :rolleyes:

fair enough i'll give you that she is pretty and mysterious but that's it for me not enough for me to form an opinion of her.

Hello,

We will continue as usual while we all wait for Steam to finish its review.
Epic Games has approved SG, and I'm also working with GoG to get the page up and running.
As soon as Steam is done reviewing, there will be one announcement log of the S1 release date.
But from now on, all Dev Logs are about Season 2.

To bring back some structure, Bi-Weekly dev logs are back.
You can check out the previous S2 Logs by clicking the "Season 2" tag.
I will repeat some info about Season 2 and a few new things here.
Season 2 ports over your save from your last Season 1 playthrough. (I'm still looking for a way to port different playthroughs simultaneously from S1 to S2.)

Graphical changes from Season 1 to Season 2.
Season 2 will be in 4k. (I already render everything in 4k. It doesn't add work, and you don't need a 4k display to see the difference.)
My friend Messe, UI designer for SG, has also created the new UI, etc., for Season 2.
The main menu

The Gallery

Load/Save

Options

It has a very clean and fantastic look. The theme of the main menu can also be changed.
This one up there is the "Glacial" theme.
I've been talking about Blender Short Stories for a while now but just didn't have the time in the past. However, with Season 2, the short stories will become a reality.
Messe was so nice in creating the UI for them, too.
These are just examples of how it would look. (The short stories have their own exe.)

In my opinion, it's just absolutely beautiful.
I will showcase more of his work at different points. But his work elevates the game's UI tremendously.
I mentioned that I'd be signing some new music soon. Sadly one Artist jumped ship with the usual: "Upon further review of your product I am going to decline on having my music in the game."
His loss.

But I still scored some very nice ambient music.
Season 2 Previews (4k attached.)
Some Nadia.

Season 2 is going to be great, and no more reworks to slow me down.
Hopefully, you'll hear from me soon about the Steam release date.

Ocean
