Good luck if you’re planning to take on this game and try to ‘fix’ the mess Ocean created. You’re really going to need it.

I can’t shake the feeling that this effort to maintain coherence in the story or preserve enjoyment of the experience will ultimately be in vain, as constant rewrites and changes are inevitable, as both past and current experience show. Often, the reasons behind these changes don’t seem entirely sincere or justified, at least not always (just my opinion on it).
It’s a bit disappointing, though, that you feel the game’s family dynamics can’t be fully restored to their original form. That said, I totally understand, as you seem to point out, that such an approach would demand a lot more work, requiring a thorough rewrite of an entire chapter, which could be too much.
Still, I really appreciate your initiative and willingness to explore alternative solutions that could work given the current situation, particularly after these profound changes.
In any case, thank you for everything you contribute. Honestly, I don’t think I could bring myself to replay these two games in their actual state without the incredible and much-appreciated effort you put into them through your mods for the community.
