Sandbox vs Visual Novel
Hi there guys,
As you probably saw in my last post there is some hate on the sandbox part of the game and I would like to see your opinion, because usually the guys who enjoy the game and support it don't say a thing, while the haters will find something to say.
So I think about three solutions.
1. Keep the game as Sandbox
I will be expand the game much more
2. Move completely to Visual Novel game
I will be a little bit limited, but I will try to integrate most of the events, and instead of jumping back in the room once you've done something you'll jump to another scene.
3. Limited free roaming
I will make the game exactly like NMS was. Limited free roaming, which will evolve based on the story.
4. Make a menu where the user decides what kind of gameplay they want.
The only downside for this is that it might take more time between versions because I need to cover two sides of the story.
The votes will be counted and the score will be based on your pledge.
Best regards,
Jason

I like your idea of going with the sandbox but the limited free roaming from NMS was also very good!
Admittedly I haven't tried it yet since I usually wait a bit before diving in, but sandbox to me always has potential. Rarely though is enough work put in to justify it. Too many sandbox have you just randomly clicking hoping to find what you are supposed to do next. They rarely matter if you do one thing instead of another. The content usually ends up out of order, but the text doesn't change so the continuity is broken.
