VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [S1 Ch.4 Fix 1 Steam] [Oceanlab]

[Vidal the king of Pervert]

It's honestly hilarious that this game came out 4 years ago, hasn't had an update in a year (yes I know one is coming soon), and still has barely any content. 4. Years. And we're only going to be at a visually nice looking Chapter 2. There's just no excuse honestly, wish he would drop one game to focus on the other.

this is not just a visual Improvement

it's a complete do-over of the entire story and characters

the story and characters may be similar but it's basically a brand new game

and ocean has said this time and time again that working on two games at the same time keeps him from getting bored or burnt out

I love Bella with all my heart

but I also love Leia to

If one considers this to be a whole new game and not a remake, that still means he’s effectively given up on one project halfway through and started another. Which shows incredibly poor planning on his part.

Oh yeah it's definitely a new game, but at what cost? I was a Patron for SG for about 1.5 years and I'm glad I could support Ocean, but frankly I've moved on for the time being. His perfectionism will be his inevitable downfall I'm afraid. Other high quality games with a similar level of financial support like Eternum already have more content, get faster updates, etc. because the Dev is honed in one game at a time. I recall a comment in the SG thread where someone said SG and WIAB are cannibalizing each other and I couldn't agree more.

I'm not trying to be a troll or be rude in the thread and normally I wouldn't be so frustrated with a Dev (they don't owe the F95 community anything frankly), but the slow development pace, reworks, etc. it's just a slap in the face to anyone who has been a Patron of this game since 2018. He never acknowledges that elephant in the room either. Ah well..we'll see I guess.

I hate how devs can't handle a SINGLE game and yet they try to make 2 or even more at the same time, absolutely ridiculous.

And who says that Ocean can't handle two games? You? Or some other dudes here? I can't imagine how irrelevant the statements of forum trolls - especially from here - are to Ocean.

Ocean has stated, that working on two games paralell helps him to keep his sanity. No one here has the right to judge this. And the raw numbers on patreon, after the "close to burnout" release from chapter 3 has proofen him right.

I hate how plebs can't handle not getting their FREE stuff on a pirate site fast enough while they could go play literally hundreds of other games instead of whining about this one, absolutely ridiculous.

Ehh you're making an assumption there. I mean yeah there's tons of complaining pirates out there. But there's people like me who stopped supporting on Patreon after giving several hundred $$ because of the long development times. I doubt I'm alone either. His Patreon numbers have grown so it's probably not a big deal to Ocean, but still somewhat shooting himself in the foot because of his decisions

Oh come on. This game has some of the worst luck. Went from being the only game by Ocean to becoming 2nd fiddle to Summer's Gone, being completely scrapped and remade, and now as we near release the coder failed his job. Hopefully Ocean picks up coding quick and doesn't make too many mistakes that need to be cleaned up later and force restarts.
