good decision , the days were too packed with content, that felt too overloaded in my opinion.
bd has done a very good job so far and i think it's the best decision for further development of the game.
and i have no problems to start from scratch, i like the game

That's a never ending cycle of reworks then, how about they start by proving they can finish a product and then do better on the next one, or do a remaster once they're finished. It's a mistake to keep reworking the same over and over again chasing perfection, you become blinded by it and start to make it worse than it was originally. The only way to get better is to move forward.

This ain't happening. Cause as known by most people this rework is planned and worked on since mid 2020, he just wants to do it in parallel so we get new stuff too. (~1 Week ago it was at 65% done)
So everything you said after your first sentence doesn't matter and wont happen for WVM.

So the rework takes even longer than the original work, so much for progress eh?.. and doing what in parallel exactly, only seen a tiny unfinished release in the past year in terms of new content. Not to mention that they earn enough to hire a whole team of artists and a renderfarm to do work for them, why haven't they?

Becouse he wants to do the work himself, and don't feel cofirtable with other people doing work on his game.
IIRC he has atleast three pc he uses for rendering.

He keeps us in touch with his progress of made render per week. The update that will be out end of March or start of April will have 2k - 2.4k render. And the week one redo is done in parallel to this update and the updates before. He got an extra PC just for the redo (he has 3 now). That we didn't see much of stuff in the last 9 months is because he changed his release schedule from 1 1/2 monthly to "when its done". But he is on par, render-wise, with the 1 1/2 months releases. It feels like I just talked about this like 8 hours ago
Like Lorgar said it is his project and he said from the start that he wants to do it himself and want total control of it, so Patreons knew what's happening.

If you put his previous release schedule and the content of that with the upcoming content in perspective you'll see that NOTHING was lost. The update is said to contain roughly 2400 renders and a few thousand lines of text.
If BD had kept the previous schedule and would have forgone the adjustment it would be at the same point if not delayed to what the upcoming update will be.
The "rework" for the most part is not a rework but an adjustment, bugfixes and fixing of weird/unintended/inconsistent behavior.
You are barking up the completely wrong tree here.

Do you really play the updates from previous year?
Because there was a pretty damn big update of 1800+ renders before the"tiny unfinished release" you are talking about.

Hey ya'll does anybody have a save file where MC, his mom, and Cedey are talking on the bed. Formatted my PC and accidentally deleted the game. Thanks in advance
I'm playing through again (at the pool party) and if the rework slows things down a bit it'll be a welcome change. I love the game the girls are all awesome and the MC isn't a weirdo which is rare as fuck but dude ending the party with like 20 chicks in your bed after what, like 9 days is just nuts. Looking forward to seeing what has changed and really looking forward to the continuation of the story especially if the pace slows down just a smidge.

Totally agree, as great as the story is, it can deffenitly benefint from a bit slower pace.I'm playing through again (at the pool party) and if the rework slows things down a bit it'll be a welcome change.

Yeah, I'll admit I've always felt the game had way too much shoved in for something that had each major release be a full day, like the game needed a shit ton of ritalin because it felt like it had massive adhd.

What changes in the first days actually should not be that much.
The MC has a penis reduction from telephone pole to something a bit less painful for virgin girls.
Shauna has some additional events and some texts are slightly changed. So CIS Shauna is not bullied for being transgender anymore and similar stuff.
A few relatively minor additions also likely happen. Like introducing Granny's Bistro where you had your meeting with Lee scheduled in the beta and whose owner apparently knows or remembers MC.

I would have to completely disagree.Totally agree, as great as the story is, it can deffenitly benefint from a bit slower pace.
There are far too many girls to warrant a slower pace, there's just too much that needs to fit in to keep people interested.
A lot of us have favourite characters and if the pace was any slower it would be a damn long time between scenes involving those characters. It's already a long wait for some of them.
Slow pace is great when the cast is limited and it doesn't need to fit as much in but the cast is just so big here that a slow pace would quite literally ruin the game for some people who wouldn't see their characters for literal months.
That maybe could have worked when development was quite quick but now the development process has slowed right down a slower pace just would not work.
I think it's important here to differentiate between the pace of the game, and the timescale the game operates over.
The pace is fine as it is, in terms of how the events flow and how the relationships progress in my opinion.
The timescale the game is over feels ludicrously compressed to me, Jaime for instance goes from blushing virgin to cuckquean nymphomaniac in less than a week the way the game currently is.
So I'd advocate for what I think BD is doing, which is taking the events and their progression as is and stretching them over more in game days while avoiding impacting the actual pacing of the game any.
It remains to be seen how/if he pulls this off.
