Hi Chiel ❤ I'm the silent supporter who comments on your posts every two years, lol. But, since you're going through such a special phase preparing to your wedding, I find myself having to comment here more often. It's so fun to follow and I'm so happy for you! ヽ(✿゚▽゚)ノ

So! To answer your question, I feel like either way is great, but I'm more inclined to say I prefer releases in routes than the whole game at once.  I live in Brazil and the dollar is quite expensive these days. Because of that, it's easier for me to organize my finances to buy games that are released by route, since they are cheaper and come out periodically.

This is a very specific case and I don't think it applies for most of your fanbase, so I think what matters most is your own style as a dev. I've seen good comments talking about you as a perfectionist (same here!) and how route releases can have a negative impact on your polishing plans. In the end, I can say for certain that what feels right for you is the best approach! 

We'll be fine and here anyways! 

See you later! ❤

Hi, Lou! OMG, I'm so glad that those who have been supporting me silently are slowly coming out one by one! Thank you so much for the blessings and for sharing your thoughts <3

I can relate with your answer--before I play visual novels on PC, I used to play phone tome games where we need to choose a route before playing. I was okay with that, we can choose the bachelor we like and maybe ignore the ones who didn't catch our attention x'D

But sadly, after reading other comments, it's not that simple. There are pros and cons--not to mention my limited programming skills Q_Q

At most, I can probably treat the routes as separate games. I have no idea how they treat routes as DLC and connect them to the game demo x_x On the other hand, I don't mind trying something new so you guys won't have to wait years until I complete one game--what a headache x'D

But honestly, I'm somewhat flattered when you said, 'What matters mostly is your own style as dev' and 'We'll be fine and here anyways! ' >///< it tells a lot about how much you care about me and I couldn't ask for a better compliment!

Overall, I'll take some time to think and take note about all the possibilities before coming to a decision. You really helped me today thank you very much! ^////^
xoxo,

SweetChiel
