Poll regarding the rework of the Chapter 1
Hey there !
So I've been brainstorming yesterday on ways to remake the 1st Chapter, and I started finding a few root as to how I can begin that rework.
There is an issue though, reworking an ENTIRE chapter would take a lot of time, there is no way I'm leaving things half done, therefore while I rework the chapter slowly (Might take more than a few updates) The current chapter 1 will remain, but I am thinking of giving players that start a new game, the ABILITY to skip The 1st Chapter.
Now now, what does that Imply :
Instead of doing the game normally and the 1st Chapter, the player that skips the 1st chapter will face a resume, with new renders, including the MAIN choices of the chapter, allowing the player to skip the currently "wonky" CH1, get all the infos that are needed from the get go from new renders and a proper "rework" of the way the story is told.
Every scene from Chapter 1 is already unlocked in the gallery and OF COURSE it would totally be optionnal, and you could just play through chapter 1 normally.
So here I am, asking you how do you think I should proceed ?
Should I leave chapter 1 as it is, focus on the rest of the game, and once I feel like I can get back to chapter 1 to FULLY rework it (0.1 to 0.5) just get to it and do it in a single update.
Or should I add this CH1 resume route allowing players to jump directly into chapter 2, CH1 would remain available to be done normally until the proper rework in which both the old CH1 And the resume would be removed.
If you played Mass Effect Genesis before, it would work a bit like that.
Of course feel free to share your ideas and opinions in the comment and on discord !
