Well it actually turns out he's giving the players the option of the game MAYBE going to Steam.
At the cost of a hand-drawn style that I'm incredibly skeptical about for certain reasons. Reasons, which if I'm wrong about, make me a massive asshole but if I'm right about them, then it will probably trigger a huge debate.
But judging from the current results of the poll, it's either going to be ugly noses or the hand-drawn style I find suspicious.
The downgraded remake is only if the people vote for it. Which is looking more and more likely as time goes on. It's looking like its gonna be the ugly ass noses and faces, that just straight up look weird and unnerving, that gets selected. Though it's only been an hour or two since the poll was posted so *shrug* no clue really.
To be honest, I'd rather see the game remade in DAZ or something else if people/the dev wants it to go to Steam. Not that suspicious "hand-drawn" style or the "nose" style.
But yeah, I'm kinda done with it. I don't really want to suffer through the uncanny faces if/when the remake comes out. The game was good but I've played Koikatsu games with those noses before and they weren't something I could get used to or ignore. Unlike the DAZ faces which I actually COULD get used to. And then the "hand-drawn" style that causes feelings of suspicion is a "no" for an obvious reason.
I still wish Arc luck in his future endeavors though. Even if I myself might not be there for them as I'd instead be playing different games.
It’s just a poll asking how people want the game to look going forward and a list of pros and cons that would come from each style. The game potentially being able to go to Steam was listed as a pro for the hand drawn, so that’ll just happen if people vote for it.
I personally don’t prefer it since I feel the 3D models are tied to the game’s identity and you’d lose out on stuff like animations. (And yes, I’m also really hoping TheGeeb81’s reasons for suspicion don’t turn out to be true. It doesn’t seem like something Arc would do, but if it is and that option wins the poll, then yeah I’m out).
