Hello!

Here is the thread where you can ask me things you're wondering about. Questions will be answered at the end of the month in a recording with a text transcript to go along with that.

I do have a new little disclaimer to add this time. I really appreciate all the help that's been contributed in prior threads, but please don't reply to other people's questions even if you know the answer.

The fun of joining a Q&A is that the developer can give a direct response to you and that everyone else also gets to hear/see the answer in the end of the month post. Having another player resolve the question in the comments right here might not be what the asker was hoping for. This thread is more about having a good time rather than looking for an immediate response to an important question. And if you do have a question you want to hear about right away, it's best to ask in some other thread or to message me directly. Thanks everybody!

Now here's two guidelines for what can actually be submitted for these Q&As;

1. I'm afraid questions about what scenes/choices Our Life: Now & Forever will include aren't answerable right now. Most of the details are decided as the game is created and currently I'm only writing the prologue of Step 1. So, I can't answer questions relating to what for sure will or won't happen past that point. I do know some things coming later, but only a small fraction of the whole game.

2. And the questions can't be about more serious/potentially upsetting topics because I don't want those listening to suddenly be surprised with something they might not have been prepared for/want to be confronted with.

#######

The thread will close after March 19th.

You can also find answers for more basic info like heights, birthdays, timelines, and such in the Overall FAQ.

Since Our Life 2 is going to be centered on fall, will there be a dedicated Halloween moment? Also do you have a rough idea of when you expect to complete Our Life 2? Like will it be finished by 2024?

Something just for fun! Would any of the main cast from OL1 or OL2 be into watching wrestling? Like the fun WWE stuff!

Someone has definitely asked this before and I just missed it. But, I am asking anyways: How much research goes into things like Qui's ballet or Tamarack's music? Or even Baxter's ballroom dancing? Is it more than what you wind up using or just enough. As a writer I am curious, because it's not like you have copious amounts of time to become an instant expert on a subject, but it can be helpful for world and character building, or even just making something more believable.

What is Cove's problem with sharing utensils and straws in step 2? Is it too intimate for him? Is it a germ thing?

Anonymous

If you were fully able to make a character in OL2 a RO, who would it be? Would you make a completely new character appear during a future step like how Baxter did in OL1?

How would Cove feel about being (lovingly) referred to as a gentle giant? Do you think the title suits him?

Anonymous

Out of curiosity (partially influenced by the casting call) I was wondering if you'd ever have characters from nationalities other than countries in the Americas (eg. an Australian) even as a background character in a game?

Did Miranda have romantic feelings for Terry during step 3?

Anonymous

If the OL1 love interests (as adults) could go back in time and offer a piece of advice to their childhood selves, what would they say?

Would Baxter watch with MC those bad reality shows about weddings if it was something they enjoyed? I can imagine how fun would be to poke fun at the aesthetic choices and the destruction of all vintage dresses in sight with someone so involved with the industry skjskj

- We already met Xavier in the Derek DLC. For someone who played the Derek's step 2 moments, will Xavier remember us in the Baxter one? - What is Baxter's opinion on piercings and tattoos? Will he ever agree to get a matching tattoo with the MC? - And... Is Xavier in any romantic relationship? Asking for a friend 😳😳

so did the avril lavigne "sk8er boi" joke about qiu being a punk who does ballet actually influence their character design or was it just a fun coincidence?

1.Since Baxter step3 dlc demo is out, i was curious why baxter wouldnt want to spend longer "quality time" with MC when MC asked Baxter to come to MC's room? Is baxter scare of hurting MC, or he don't want thing to get out of hand as he was suppose to be just a summer fling and dont want to make MC get too attached? 2.Also is Baxter have any sexual experience before with other fling or anyone he been with in short-term?

Does Baxter get over us at all during the time skip between step 3 and step 4? If so, how quickly?

Nightale

Does Baxter ever find love ?

ClumsyCat

Will there be a meet and greet with game dev(s?) in the future? And is there a timeline for how many years OL2 may have until completion?

ClumsyCat

Would you be able to choose to pursue a career in ballroom dancing, as the MC doing it after fond memories with batxer and trying to find him again? Also will we have more intimate scenes with Qui when they're older, similar to the makeout scenes and loft one with cove? Finally is the game expected to be similar length to OL1, Longer/shorter, More/less DLC, or anything like that?

Anonymous

Hi, so I can sort of answer the second one, (but it's always best to wait for a real answer, aha) so as far as length, there's no telling how it will come out in regards to play time, but it is definitely a LOT longer than the first game work-wise due to all the coding, branching, assets, etc. that will be going into it. As for DLC's, I think GB mentioned them being part of the eventual Kickstarter. It's highly likely we'll have them, but there's no telling how many just yet.

Hello! Thank you for the games!! I love them so much I was wondering would it be alright to get a tattoo similar to the ones characters have, like coves in step 4 for example?

OmicroC

sorry, there are some more question i would like to ask about baxter!

OmicroC

sorry, there are some more question i would like to ask about baxter! 1. What baxter think about horror movie or ghost movie? 2. if baxter dated MC in step 3 for a summer, after he went back, did he thiink about MC time to time? or he actually forgot about MC?

Anonymous

If the MC offer Baxter to try black coloured false nails/ nail polishes on during Step 3 and 4, how would he feel? would he like to give it a try?

Anonymous

How do you choose the artists that illustrate for the games?

Anonymous

1. What if the MC ended up in the same college as Baxter? Even some of the same classes? 2. When Baxter only wears black and white, would he wear green for St. Patrick’s day, and would he wear really really dark navy blue?

I'm sorry, after recording I realized that I missed this question! I'll answer it in a comment though. If there was a side character DLC it would be for Renee Murray. I'm not sure we'd be able to make that, though. We'll have to see how things go in the future.
