Yep. And let's not forget Cedar's backstory, the nightmares and sleepwalking, and the reintroduced memories, either. Amongst other things. The deep and dark background has always been there, and it's well woven into the story, particularly in terms of why MC became the kind of man he is, despite the repressed memories. As someone else pointed out, I think the long update cycles are factor, here. With a fairly deep and involved story, it's easy to forget a lot of it after waiting a year for a small and often broken update. Especially after not delving into the deeper story in awhile and keeping everything lighter and shallower in recent (I use that term relatively) updates before this one.
Not gonna get into the whole BD-bashing thing, but yeah...I do really hope that this is eventually finished, though, because despite the flaws, and the whole thing with BD and his less than stellar record, I really do enjoy this game, and I totally understand MC and his mentality and character. It's one that I can identify with, especially the whole "White Knight" or "Protector" angle, and the hidden scars of past trauma. Certainly, he's more likeable and relatable than the total creep MCs of many other AVNs/games.
