  • Totally fair gripe, and I have the same one with choice trees in most games. I don’t mind little stuff that doesn’t affect the longer game, but holy shit, if choice A or B is going to wildly change the outcome of the game / who I’m dating / if a character lives or dies / etc, either make it super obvious or flat out tell me! I’d LOVE to have a little info icon next to dialog choices that would say “FYI if you choose this option you’re straight up rejecting any future romance with this char” or something. Immersion breaking? who cares! so is save scumming and a ton of other game mechanics. It’s all for fun anyway, I’d rather know what I’m doing and not waste time.

    Sorry, rant over :D



  • I saw an interview from a band talking about this problem. They said it was a tough balancing act. The people there live want to hear the classics and don’t want new stuff. But anyone watching remotely or watching the video later already has their favorite versions of the classics and doesn’t want to hear them again, they want new stuff. You have to do both and it’s hard.
