I'll be honest, I don't generally agree with Devs remastering games, that they haven't already completed. I understand the motivation behind it, but I don't get the necessity for it, when it means making your patrons wait long periods for new content. When you could easily just start a new chapter of the game, using the updated format, and save any remastering for a later date. That's just my take on it, and of course I was initially disappointed, that I'd have to wait a long time for anymore new content, from a game that had become one of my favourites. But the Devs thought otherwise, and you either just have to accept it or move on. I'm generally quite a pragmatic and patient person, so once I've accepted a new state of affairs, it ceases to be an issue for me.I agree with you Zara, they are laying it on a bit thick. I'm hoping for the best but preparing for disappointment. I dropped support as soon as the words remake/remaster were starting to get used as most of the devs I have seen on F95 that have proposed this always underestimate the actual time it will take to complete it. I also fail to see at this time why the name change of the VN is warranted or why anyone cares at this point about Victoria's early life, unless the dev was simply running out of ideas on the path we were on.
I'm hopeful after this next release we can get back to a normal release schedule. Fingers crossed that the next update is amazing. Cautiously optimistic.
Also, I generally take release dates with a big pinch of salt, because of the hundred plus games I'm currently playing on this site, most of them end up getting delayed for one reason or another. This is so common, it amazes me, how so many people, get so worked up about it. If a Dev says he's going to release on a particular date, more than a couple of weeks beforehand, I know from experience, that the chances are quite high, that something will occur in the meantime to delay that release. If we get it on time, well that's great, but if we dont, well it's not entirely unexpected and definitely not the end of the world, as some people would have you believe.
Two months delay, and already some people are suggesting the Devs of this game are milking the patrons and running some kind of a scam, which is just ludicrous. All the evidence suggests the Devs are still totally committed to delivering the remastered version of this game, plus a large dollop of new content, as soon as they possibly can. And there is absolutely nothing to suggest otherwise, outside the comments of a vocal but likely uninformed minority.
