Focusing on the rework would also make the new content make sense. Especially since the game has people we have never heard of before.
At this point are there new characters that aren't just the next ones to fall in love with the MC and start fucking him? What about the new characters is actually mysterious/interesting? IMO, the existing characters have been losing depth over time, not gaining. I don't need to know anything about them because they're already on the narrative waterslide that ends up with them constantly duckfacing you like all the rest.
This game has two main plot threads from the start:
- Young child misremembering his childhood due to trauma (backstory)
- College-aged man focusing on being a basketball star and trying to navigate his romantic commitments (current drama)
Over time we have developed two new plot threads that have totally consumed the narrative:
- The mysteries and political intrigue of how the WVM college is funded and run (WGAF)
- The MC's metamorphosis from committed relationship, to polyamorous, to now being on the verge of having a sex cult
Now Braindrop is going back to when the game was arguably most beloved and adding MORE lore and characters, which is exactly what knocked this game off the rails to begin with. The current problem is not trouble following the timeline as it stands now, it's that
the timeline has become totally unengaging. I'm not confused, I just don't care.
