Ah, yes. The VNs I play aren‘t kinetic enough so I need Walkthrough Mods to „fix“ them.

I think Ill wait until there's 1GB update but not play until I'm certain there's another update and when.
The story is too good to take a long pause. Not many games this good out there.

Not really fond of music or sound. That's not why we download this game.There are games that are like a blockbuster movie and really benefit from a good soundtrack. Then there are games, like WVM, that wouldn't need more than your random Spotify list - just some carefree background droning.
And that is much more subjective. If a dev can pull that off - great. If he can't, and BD seems to be that latter kind of dev, they really shouldn't do so but stick to what they like and can do. Everyone can just turn on the radio or play their default music - no need for BD to invest his time into finding the same 4 free tracks everyone is using.
Or to actually code a system for adding your music into the game, so we can avoid those infamous free tracks - you would still need to add your own favorite music - why has it to be inside the VN instead of just from your normal source of music?
If BD has no talent for choosing music the majority likes, the result of adding that to the game would be like that day at work where a colleague of mine played mongolian throat singing tracks almost all day ... "WHY!?"
Just because someone makes a mod for something doesn't necessarily mean that it's something that should have been part of the creative process of the modded product.
I'm using the "Reign of Terror" (Diablo) mod in Grim Dawn sometimes. This just means I like Diablo and would like to have more content in that universe. Neither should Grim Dawn be Diablo, nor should Diablo necessarily play like Grim Dawn. If anything, it means Diablo 4 should be out sooner and better than Diablo 3 was/is.
Like PrimeGuy I had to go back to see what exactly BD wrote.
- If we go on from 'BD just stated what he thinks', and just saying you share his views isn't relevant - how is then telling us that you don't and what type of music you would like or prefer to have relevant? (Based on BD just having told us his personal view on the topic, but not having started a discussion.)
- If we see this as a discussion about music in this VN in general, though, then both are relevant as they show what kind of music people would like to have in it (or not). This might let BD rethink his views if there was a vast majority that wanted music.
- If it had been a discussion about what type of music you like most in VNs or specific story circumstances (this time not related to where it comes from) - then yes, saying 'I mute VN music and listen to my own' doesn't really help anyone. But no one started that kind of discussion.
- And in case we just comment on BDs views of music in WVM - then again both kinds of comments are relevant, because they can give BD an impression of how others views on this topic do match his own - or don't.
We're here for the story and the next update, that's all.
I play all my games mute. It makes no difference .
It's September 30th already in parts of the globe, which means it's Willow's birthday! Happy Birthday to our favorite tough girl who always ready to strike, especially if you dare mess with her BruBru MC.

Mmm Sound effects I can see and get behind. Music isn't a bad option (along with a mute option) but you need to be careful to make sure the bgm matches the mood you're going for. Since this is a first person perspective; the bgm should match the mood of our MC and thus be reflective of that.
For instance, I see where music can enchance the feelings you might want out of the story. They should help set the mood and look for ambiance and moods change slowly so having a mix of similar but different is not a bad thing. Motifs and such. Like how Willow's theme in the story will change but also should stay similar in nature.
Depending on HOW it is implimented will fine tune some decisions as you will/should make sure the loop feels good if you plan to loop said music. And that the loop is effectively seemless in terms of ideal working conditions or common working conditions.
Oh and lastly, where music is common, silence becomes a statement. Cutting out the music abuptly is catching.
Or, of course, don't. Perfectly valid option.

I just checked, and all the game download links for Windows/Linux and Mac were 9.5.1 (based on the filenames, and this includes the compressed version). The Android links are already labeled as 9.5, so I didn't check them.
The only difference between 9.5 and 9.5.1 are some bugfixes, though, so it might not matter which of the two you're playing.

Now, next update is most likely a few months away plus there's around 3 hours (give or take) of gameplay/content in the 0.9.5 update

Next update will be if every thing runs correct on Braindrops side on the 12. October, but it will be a beta. The next full update is probably pretty far.
Source is my post from the 25.09.2021 with the Mind Drop #31.

But he could probably wait for the Beta. (Don't know if Braindrop plans the beta as a standalone) So he could play the update he is missing + the Beta.

Depends if he wanna pay for it since the Beta is Patreon only as I understand it.
Well... What can I say... Hopefully either this year or next year, BD could include Halloween theme, along with Thanksgiving themes. Then the X-mas (Christmas) themes. However, that is all up to BD and his project schedule. We just need to give him time to re-adapt his daily schedule. Hopefully he is doing reasonable well since the last update. All I can say we are looking forward for his next update, whenever BD believe the next update is ready to be release.
Have a great day and be safe...

hope those things won't be added
those things can be released as specials or whatever after the game is finished
