I don't understand coding at all, but I genuinely doubt that unless DC was pulling shit that was going to make even Yan Dev puke, the visual novel was going to implode.
That being said, as long as they re-do everything within a year, I guess it's fine if it'll help future updates get pumped out faster? I do wish they at least put "X thing is being worked on" in the updates so you could at least get a hint of what the heck's happeening without needing to sub, rather than a generic "March update" or whatever
EDIT: NVM, Just saw the roadmap, TF?
