The fact that it will get one. I just can't stand sandbox in whatever form... If i would want to play any kind of free roam game I'd choose an RPG instead...
it did't end up as a dislike in my sig for no reason...
Okay, Yeah. I can understand this. I feel the same way. Their is very few games I think pull this off well, or have a story good enough to deal with the annoyances of it. I've stopped playing games because the sandbox pissed me off to much.
I only use the term "sandbox" due to lack of a better term.
In reality what it will get. is more or less free-roam segments.
Here's a scenario for example.
You are in a house with 3 or more woman you can be sexually involved with, As the story progresses and you becomes more involved with all of them, you have a choice of who you want to spend the night with.
Rather then just a question box that asks "Hey, who you fucking tonight" lol. it will enter a "free-roam" where you can choose who and how involved your interactions are.
Meaning you can just pick a room, and choose to end the night in that room, either with just going to bed, or having sexy time.
or you can go have a minor interaction with one, then go to another room and have another minor interaction their. The choices ending at whichever girl you decide to sleep with, either "sleep with" or just sleep with.
you can even choose to leave the house and go see some one else.
This game will never have "You must wait till day 15 to do this."
all interactions in free-roam are triggered/advanced by your progression with the character, either in story or in free-roam, not by time.
So if you have a character you want to perform a certain action with, you can either just rely on story interactions and a few minor free-roam interactions to get that in action like 5 days. or you can choose to spend all your free-roam time with her, unlocking that action sooner.
It's really hard to fully explain my goal until you can see it. But with all the side content / stories we have written for this, and the early decision to NOT make the game a full sandbox. This was the alternative.
and free-roam segments are skip-able too, meaning you can completely choose to not play that way and just follow the main arc, but you will miss out on some of the side content and characters, and miss out on things like voyeurism.
