It's not quite dead, but I can't say it lives to tell the tale. (Arr...) I've tried to keep my distance, but the promise of a "finished game" felt just too real. Fortunately for you, Audacity seems to have deleted my hour-long reaction to the Satori route. Ye landlubbers got blessed by the Winds!! At any rate, you'll know my opinion, one way or another, soon enough. The Game is far from finished, but at least the suspense has worn off.
Don't act like I'm misbehaving, either, by posting this summary critique. I still have to live down the flogging I received for "improperly" crediting the original "Team", and when I see that all of my Music was cut and I'm only credited as a "Concept Writer" (coughs Intellectual Property Owner wretches excuse me) despite a large part of the Final, Published Script (the part with the punctuation and spelling, etc.) having been my original writing, it's a bit insulting.
I'm not trying to make this about me, though. It would just be nice for potential players and fans to know that this hype is a mirage.
That's all from me, for now. Don't show up outside my house or something. You'll know how to reach me, soon enough.
Rinzai.
