Tbh I'm more than content with the original version. Sure, the revamp is more interesting (mainly because it's different, so it's like getting a bit of "mini extra chapters"), but tbh, only because you have something to compare it against. If you had nothing to compare it to, people would not consider the original "worse".
I'd rather have 20 new chapters from the original, than adding tiny bits to the old ones, and getting an actually NEW chapter every 5-6 months.
Also some of the scenes in the hotel at the resort, in the revamp, were very zoomed in for some reason, I think I read someone saying something about it. Idk if it's fixable.

Yeah, about that problem at the resort I stumble upon it too... It's when you get to have your way with the brunette at your room I think and only a portion of her body is shown... I found out later that is actually a code issue since the images on the archive was actually larger and about the other stuff everyone entitles to their opinion, I can see your point though. In the end it's devs decision to what's right or not and if it will affect it better storywise.

Very true. I would rather he took his time, and deliver an awesome product. He has plenty of time to patch things up, and I think the final product is easily going to be one of the best games on this site.

When it happens?
The couple had invited only MC because Anne was tired and MC (accidentally) meet this couple, that for their honeymoon want a foursome or a threesome with a couple or a guy, but because Anne is in bed, MC have a threesome with them!

This would have been fixable with a rewrite, by adding one or two scenes and/or deleting some of the confusing dialogue. There was no real reason to rebuild everything from the start. Would have taken me a month or so to streamline the story.

It wasn't a good decision to change the engine just because there was a problem with the car body. Imagine EvaKiss (GoodGirldGoneBad) had decided to give Ashley a more realistic look after 5 chapters. The game would have gone nowhere.
Now that he's building upon his former chapters, he's still months/years behind for the next chapters to come.

Oh my, I like what I read here! I can't wait to play to your next game! Or your version of an existing story-broken game!

Be my guest, TAC files are really easy to extract and to edit, so on the 10th July we can play an up to chapter 10 enhanced version of this game, your version of this game.

I'm glad that someone show us how it should be done, there are too much stupid and lazy game devs here!

I'm so happy, I put all my faith in you, pal! Let us see your magic!

The game had turned into a hot mess. There were supposed to be 3 (I believe) distinct paths, but they were jumbled up, players didn't know how to get onto each path, the paths were a mess.

His revamp is fixing that, making each path distinct and more logical. He's also updating images that he doesn't like (his skill has improved, and he updated some of the models to newer versions - g3 to g8, I believe).

I get that you're frustrated by the lack of releases. That's OK. But the product will be stronger because of this revamp.

I am not frustrated at all, all I am saying is that a revamp wasn't necessary to such an extend. I've read the script and I think a few changes here and there would have been enough to entangle the routes.
CG is overrated - I was happy with the overall quality. Since Mircom3D was able to create some juicy moments with his level of rendering/writing I feel the rollback is a waste of time (no hard feelings).

From reading your posts, you seem frustrated. But if you're not, hey, that's better than being frustrated, right? :)

Mircom3D felt that a complete rewrite was necessary. Seeing how the paths were ... fuzzy, and sometimes did the complete wrong thing, I agree with him.

Sure. Pay me upfront and I'll come back to you. Don't ask me about new renders though.

I didn't pay Mircom upfront, I won't begin with you pal ;), but show me the goods and then we can talk. We may all be pirates here, those of the devs who show great skills get some bucks.

I mean...people figured it out. They're not that stupid. Also I think what you call a "hot mess", for me at least, gives the game more replayability value, and letting you figure out things for yourself. Also if you ask anyone here, you can get an answer to anything.

Idk, I kind of enjoyed that things were not as "distinct" as possible, telling you what path you're going for if you do "X". It's more like in real life. You make decisions and see what happens, and sometimes things don't go the way you planned them initially, but you just roll with it.
