They aren't getting their Patreon back, Steam/GOG doesn't give a shit about any of that. So, unless they are doing it for "creative" purposes and for themself to make the story easier to write (whatever), really no reason. As said, the platforms they are pushing it to, well, just don't care about that content.
I don't really think it will affect the story in any manner, I am not entirely sure as to why it was change but if it was to give the relationships a more natural feel to it, it should not afect the plot.
Well, someone has to pack up their old apartment, and maybe they decided she should, so William can reconnect properly, maybe purely pragmatic. In the old version Miru had to leave towards the Ch6 I think, maybe that's Ocean's way for allowing Willi the space to cheat and develop relationships for the NTR aspect to start taking off?
Well, I'm not saying I make 100% sense, just that there are all kinds of possibilities even from just what we currently know. I mean the basic premise that there are evil ganstas hiding in shadows throwing spiders into the Zane house isn't exactly the conclusion I would have reached, but here we are after that chapter
Yeah, I know but he talks of publishing in a way that makes sense in Steam, because with out the patch it did not, and that is fair. But now is either Helen and the rest are not related to William and Leia whatsoever, with it still would not make sense, or the twins are adopted and then there is no blood relation, with is kinda Ocean having his cake and eating it too.
Yeah, was thinking in similar lines. having Miru out for a few days also lets William interact with more character. Also now thinking better, maybe is William that is leaving, I still think that Miru makes more sense but might be William.Well, someone has to pack up their old apartment, and maybe they decided she should, so William can reconnect properly, maybe purely pragmatic.

Regards the changes, it might also be pragmatic - the story was too intertwined, this might allow a little more narative freedom without some of the massive complexities where every relationship hinges directly on every other one.

If Nika and Nami were put into custody to keep them from their past, that'd still follow the basic outlines of the SG story already, the big question is who are Willi and Leia's parents? That's really what I'm interested in, in both games, the MC has no knowledge of their past.
In my second paragraph, I simply meant that by clarifying the relationships, the narrative becomes simpler, not only does he avoid anyone being a tenant, (actually, I guess Dana will be Willi and Miru's landlady now...), but he doesn't have to make a story that is plausible to both meanings. I mean, Dana and Gina have mentioned their brothers, Kat and Zoey have brothers we've seen, there's no problems understanding the dynamic - it's just their identity is clear. We know exactly what we expect of Stephan and Lucas, Ocean can focus instead on telling us why they're important in the story. In the same way, defining these relationships allows Ocean to set the conditions for the story and lead us directly, rather than keeping everything opaque.
Well, there are already other AVN's on Steam that have characters who have a sexual past, yet they're going to college for the first time, so it's certainly possible. In the old version or now, neither WiaB has had Willi do anything until Monica appeared. I guess Ocean just has to find a way to keep the past reveals minimal, especially as he cut Summer's kiss from SG.
We might now know that Willi and Leia aren't Helen and Dylan's natural born kids, but do Willi and Leia know? Nothing in the story so far suggests that they've been told. It makes me think of Oedipus, running away to save his parents from the prophecy, only to enable the prophecy to happen to his actual parents. This is why I think Ocean's been brave to tell us rather than let it be revealed through the story - he's given away a major plot point, the question is whether he'll just divert the narrative to its new course or change some of the details we've already seen. Given how much Ocean loves suspense and reveals, I'm hoping that he'll leave leave it as isand reveal it to Willi. It could be that Leia knows already, and that's part of what Will might find out - that would explain why Leia rarely attends breakfast with the rest of the clan.
Because she's the woman who raised him and took care of him?
If this is for her gaming group, she's going to kill the guys.
I think you are misunderstanding William's character,
Fuck she is such a cutie
How would it make more sense that Leia, with whom William fell in love and had libidinous encounters in his past, and who is an LI in his present, would be the sister for a version without incest?
I mean, in general the non incestuous version of the game is weird and makes little sense (all the drama in the game looks at least bizarre if they aren't family). Making Leia the MC's sister will make the game make a little more sense, but in turn it won't appeal to those who prefer the non incestuous version of the game.How would it make more sense that Leia, with whom William fell in love and had libidinous encounters in his past, and who is an LI in his present, would be the sister for a version without incest?
