From my understanding the week 1 re-work with take the first 7 days of the game and spread out events over a 3 week period of time. There will be some new events, some will be the same and others will have a new look/feel to them. I am not sure if this will require us to start fresh or if we will be able to just answer some questions to pick up at the latest update.
I feel BD is doing this since there was a lot of complaints about how much the MC does in one day, and some other factors too. I also think we should start to see events per day slow down going forward too. I think maybe not until day 11 though as day 10 sounds like there is a lot there still considering what we have seen so far in the beta, and knowing there is the first actual game to see too.
The new update could be early March or mid March we just don't know. I would think that the update needs to be tested, proof read as well as any final renders/animations/script. While I am a patreon I am not a top tier one so I don't know how he goes about all this stuff. We just won't know until BD releases the update to the highest level Patreon members first.
While it has been a long time since a full update, at least we got a beta to see here to hold us over until the next full update. I know the game is not getting updates like it was early on, but when you want to improve your craft it only takes longer as you are always looking to learn new things to improve. I mean come on look at day 1 come pared to the beta there are tons of improvements. The nice thing is BD stays in communication with his patreon members and even interacts with us here sometimes. This is much better than some other devs who just go silent and say nothing to their fans and supporters.

I don't think some pirates know the definition of "forever". Or the word "no" for that matter. "Patience" is the #1 that I wish some would learn. Surely Sesame Street covered these 
I already planning to start over again from scratch. Since BD been reworking week 1. I may just sit back and wait for the release as well for week 1 re-work.
Thanks for relaying the mind-drop message.
Have a great day and be safe...

I did take it directly out of the Patreon comments. So we don't have to replay "Week 1" but it is recommended.

For me it sounds you have to restart the game.
Just there will be an option to skip almost everything except the choices.

Well yeah but its not like you have to skip everything yourself, see every render. Even just skipping tru takes quite a lot of time (I did it for the cheating route), so with those choices you decide like 15-20 times and are back at "day 10" (or what ever day it is). When I think about restart the game, I think about having to paly it again not choosing "left or right" 15 times.

I think most people will decide to just play the game from the start.
After all there will be a lot of changes and new events+new characters.

Yeah I think so, too. Just wanted post what BD said on Patreon and clarify myself what I mean "You don't have to restart" It is more like you don't have to replay the first week.
Not like other game developers *cof* *cof* Milfy City *cof* *cof*
I replay this VN from the start after every update. Just because it's that good and one of the best currently being made. This and a few other VN's I always restart from beginning after every update.

Sometimes I'll replay it when I'm just looking for a "comfort VN".

I replay this one so much I have almost the entire first 7 days memorized. I still love some of those moments like the Cedey reveal when I need something to lift my spirits for the day. So glad we got another moment similar to that with Stacy too.
Same for me, or when they go both with Wendy just for my Wholesome levels to go up

It's pretty apparent to me after playing the beta that you're going to be lost as Hell if you don't replay the week 1 rework.
There's no way in hell I'm starting from scratch this far along.

1. It's not happening soon
2. It literally changes the beginning of the game. Hours of the story will be changed so idk why you wouldn't play it.
3. There's a special little button that you can use to skip dialogue after you've seen the reworked week one to get back to where you were.

There are things from day 7 final-9 that don't make sense either it is not just from the beta for the week 1 rework. There is a whole section about how Stacy talks about how both the MC and her thought she was his sister. As well as other things characters say that are not in week 1 like with Yuki.
1. That sucks even worse
2. Because I don't want to go back and go through stuff I already did, lose progress, etc.
3. That still can take hours to get back to where you were.
I honestly have no idea why a dev would do something like that so far in. If I'm a patron and they do that they get dropped. If it's the first few releases that's one thing but not 1 year + in. That's unacceptable. If it changes the game too much, that's basically abandoning the game and starting a new one.
