I'm almost done with Chapter 4 of Oathbreaker, and I decided to jump right back into Noctis Umbra as soon it's released. 

I want to save this universe a lot, so, I'll go all out with everything I've learned so far.

But in order to do everything freely (including adding the M!MC), I decided not to make a remake. 

Instead, I'll keep the old one on the website and make completely new Noctis Umbra.

It could be a new season or an alternate story in the same lore/universe. Same good/evil intricacies, but better studied this time.

It's kind of a risk, because it may still not be popular, but at least I'll know I did my best! 

First Noctis Umbra was just a one prologue example for me, as I was trying out a new engine / style and testing the waters. I wasn't sure if it was going to work out or not, so I didn't develop it as much as I could.

Oathbreaker was understandably better, as I learned and improved in time.

Now, I want to push it a little further than just "testing".

So, my question is;

What should this Noctis Umbra be?

Same characters and companions but a bit further in the timeline? (About a few years after the last chapter of Noctis Umbra.)

Or an alternate timeline/universe with different companions, MC(s) and story.

(Either way, I'll be remaking all characters and add an optional male MC.)

Choose wisely!😉

I voted new characters and alternate timeline. I always find it appealing when the main cast is not the obvious choice (in this case, the leaders of the revolution, and founders of Noctis Umbra), but a powerful group next to them. It would give you freedom to rework the story and characters to your liking and it also allows for cameos from the previous cast, which is always fun.

I don't think the characters in Noctis Umbra are the problem. It's just that the story feels so rushed, you don't get to know any of them. Not well, at least. I know it's already a lot of work to do the art and put it all together, but maybe you need more help writing to space out the narrative? Sorry for commenting on this so late but I'm going back through stuff and forgot for a moment that this was a while back ago.
