except the one i don’t want to name is relevant because, either through morbid curiosity, sunk cost fallacy, having a peanut gallery (even if it was just one person), or having nothing better to do, i’ve actually played through it (or at least up to the most recent version’s content)
fortunately its brimstone nigger hell shit is thankfully mostly confined to one thankfully optional and very easy to miss route which i’ve only heard second hand stuff about (it’s pretty fucking shit), but another source of the vomit inducing terribleness is the fact that it violates so many game design and storytelling principles that it’s not even funny
BUUUUT to be honest if someone who isn’t retarded were to hijack its development and completely remove that crime against storytelling, game design, usable map count (since it’s a RPG maker game) and game development practices then the game itself could become acceptable given that most of the bad stuff outside of that retarded waste of development time is merely coal at worst (or good ideas executed badly that can be easily salvaged), and potentially pretty good after basically rebuilding the ship of theseus to make room for major improvements since the game is literal spaghetti on the inside but that’s neither here nor there
not gonna go into detail about the “how” part of salvaging this lump of carbon because wordswordswords and also the haters will sabotage me, but just know something will be in the works
and yes, said salvage operation will involve adding actual honest-to-Cob gems and turning the parts of it that have potential (that’s wasted due to a retarded niggerfaggot tunnel visionary dev) into gems
