The original game got better by leaps and bounds after the first few chapters. Kind of a pleasant surprise for those who stuck with it. The difference was so striking that this complete reboot was warranted. Time will tell how well the rework does, however. The skeleton of the same story is there but events and characters are being fleshed out differently.

while there are similarities between the old version and the rework I am treating this as a brand new game

Brother, even though the old version lacked some certain level of depth to the story, as well as the characters, it deserved at least three stars, wouldn't you agree ?

The reason why Where it All Began is so hard to rate it is because it it like this drawing of a horse.
I know. Usually this meme is the other way around, but to illustrate how different the beginning of the game was originally compared to what it ended up being it bears alteration. Now if it was the other way around it could be understandable that people would tank it with one star out of disappointment. But it wasn't. It started out insepid, became mediocre, and then transendant. Nobody knows what to do with a game like this. Do you honestly point out its initial flaws or grade on a curve because it showed improvement? I know that 3 stars sounds reasonable to me but others may feel differently. What complicates things for me is that it remains eternally unfinished so I will never know where it was all going. All I know is that I am encouraged to see what the dev does going forward as they are obviously dedicated to refining and improving their craft.

Ya, got to the end after like 25-35 mins and it said save and I was like no way, lol. Render quality was great, and Ocean did a nice job with the sex animations - those are animations that are actually worth the rendering time.
Is the MC the same face model of the one in "Leap of Faith"?

oh I definitely agree brother
but I haven't played the original in a long time
when I found out it was going to be reworked
I didn't see the point in playing the older version
so I focused all my attention on summer's gone
but now that the rework is here I'm waiting for a few more chapters and I plan to play it every week like I do with summer's gone
