After some feedback from players, it has become apparent that calling this game 'Waterborne2' wrongfully set players expectations that it would be a direct follow up to the first game. While it is absolutely linked to the first game, it is not an obvious sequel, especially for the first two thirds or so of the game. As such I've felt this has led to a little bit of potentially avoidable disappointment.
I've also been wondering if using '2' has put players off bothering to try it out, feeling like they would have had to play the first game to understand it.
So I have decided to change the name to 'Waterborne:Immersion'. I feel using a subtitle suggests the story is somewhat self contained even though it's part of a bigger whole. At least, much more than a number does anyway. Also the 'immersion' is intrinsically tied to the story and fits perfectly. It's arguably a better name and probably should have been called that from the outset.
So that's the story, 'Waterborne2' is now 'Waterborne:Immersion".
