again the game got worse as the dev messes with the chapters, every single scene he touches becomes less fluid than it was, improving image quality and increasing the amount of chat doesn't mean a better story, camera work in general seems much worse than before.
for example in the scene where we go see victoria, in the OG we were shown that she was behaving somewhat normal before mentioning that she seemed to be coping well, in the new one its literally the first thing the MC says with 0 backing as he just got there and she had barely spoke.
Mila's "you seem broken" talk really doesn't work now either it didn't flow as well as the OG did.
Its like he knows what he needs to have happen but cant connect everything, imo who ever wrote the first chapter had miles better eye for this kind of story than the current Dev.

Why is there always a (~0.5s?) delay before the next textbox is shown? Its annoying and I have to double click way to much to skip that delay.

The render quality is better, but it was good in the first place. I dont understand why Devs try to fix their games during production. I guess because they fear that ppl wont support them after they have finished, for some kind of "directors cut" or "enhanced version" of the game.

I cant remember the old version, because so much time passed, so its hard to comment on the differences in the story (telling) compared to the last version - and I just started the new version.

Because he wants to put the game on Steam after ch5. He can't advertise the game with the amazing ch4 quality renders, then people start the game and see the old potato style. He would just get a ton of refunds.

Anyway next is ch4.5 aka second part of chapter 4. Then it's ch2 rework, and that is the last chapter to get reworked.

There might be long between updates, the quality however is top tier. Great story and beautiful grafhics, alittle proof reading still needed but its minor details considering it's a second langauge. 10 out of 10 would recommend :)

Fantastic update again. I agree it's a bit tough to wait so long - but it really is well made. If only we had a ton of games steadily releasing with same quality throughout the year. Supporting the dev for only one month and then again next year is always an option for those who understandably feel worried about pledging monthly with long breaks in updates.

I wish Ocean was more clear regarding his direction for the game. Its good that only chapter 2 is left to rework but considering the pace of updates, the steam release will probably be in early 2024 , maybe later if there is a chapter 4.5 as well, and that is considering his work on WIAB doesn't delay this game further. I agree with a lot of other posters here that the rework should have started after or atleast when chapter 5 is near completion, since the quality of the earlier chapters are not that terrible. He could have started a public beta of the 5 chapters while he continues to remake the first two for his patreons which would have been a much better model and nobody would have had to complain of slow progress since the entire season 1 would have been available to play and if they wanted more they should subscribe to his patreon

Woah, I didn't know. But I don't think the typos have anything to do with that, I mean isn't his(?) english really good? From my point of view at least it does (but I'm not a native speaker so...)

oceanlab's priorities are messed up. As much as i like WIAB and SG i dont understand the need to whatever he does regarding "new cgs new animatics new storyline" i prefer rather the og. He should focus onl on the story developement . he is confused himsef. by the time WIAB and SG will be done my grandkids will be playing the full version. Oceanlab stop screwing around and focus on the main story.
Good to see i am not the only one that prefers the old version better, current MC is supposed to be broken but that's not what's shown.
The gun scene for eg. now feels so out of place it really seems like its there just because he doesn't want to change too much but he would remove it if he could.

Dont try to remember too much, because i still have the old version and its straight up better in everything but picture quality.

btw to those that were saying the first chapter had potato quality, WHAT even the first chapter has amazing quality and imo better direction.
