Guys, I went to the site you mentioned and found the NLT interview in text format. I didn't know it existed because I started getting interested in NLT games later. I got to know NLT a little better and it was a very enjoyable read. The interview is dated January 2022, when NLT was wrapping up TON and moving on to TGO. I thought, "Hey, others might be interested in this too!" Posting the interview here. I took the liberty of adding some pictures to complement the text. Enjoy.

P.S. Considering NLT has 25 years of amateur game development under his belt, I'm guessing he's older than I previously guessed. 40+. He's in good shape, which is confusing.

Why would the dev change a popular formula?

To be fair, this "if it ain't broke don't fix it" argument is pretty stupid if one gives it some real thoughts.

Not that NLT is going to do it, but...

...to challenge himself?

Or

...he got bored with the same old same old?

Or

...he wants to be more than a one-trick pony?

The possibilities are endless. But the probabilities are low.

In an interview, NLT said that the road to something great consists of many small steps. Based on the experience of LE, TON was born. ;)
TGO is a lot of work on character design, with a lot of emphasis on animation.
SotS brought isometric view, combat system, a practical game movie with animation, a sea of actors and voice acting.
Isn't this a challenge to myself? Isn't this an evolution?
The LE thread was created in August 2018. 7 years - 3 completed games and SotS in active development.
And these games make you go somewhere, find something, buy something, and by getting the item, you open a locked door somewhere else or a chest. We get scenes and content for doing it ourselves, opening the wrapper where the content is, and not getting it for free by holding down the "Ren Py skip" pedal.

NLT knew from the very beginning how such content should work in the game - as a reward for actions, for searching and for quests.

All true, but none of that invalidates my point that if NLT on a whim chooses to change things up for whatever reason they deemed valid, they could. It's just it is highly unlikely they would at this point. So the whole "why would NLT..." point is rather pointless.
