Meaningful Poll Result: Aya's good ending, and Q&A (Patreon)
Content
I ran a poll last week about whether Aya should have a good ending or not in her route. The result ended up being 60% against having a good ending versus 40% in favor of it.
Now, does that mean that I will absolutely refuse to write a good ending or that there's no chance for one…? No. Not necessarily. It was a rather close poll. What it means is that I won't force a good ending if I don't think of a satisfying conclusion for it. I wasn't really happy with how the good ending for Laura turned out to be… but at least there was more than one good ending—we can thank Aya for that—so it kinda balanced the whole thing.
I will continue writing Aya's route without thinking too much about it. I'll probably run another poll in a few months, when the story has progressed a bit just to see if the needle has moved since. But still, for now, you should assume that there isn't going to be one.
What I find weird is that some people assume that I either don't care about good endings or I don't care about my Patrons. But if I really didn't care, I wouldn't be running a poll in the first place. I actually put a lot of importance on what you guys want, and I'm trying my best in my own way.
Now, this month, I decided not to do a CG preview. Mainly because, while there are quite a few new CGs, there isn't much "action". My desire not to spoil anything is kinda strong as well. It always is… but this month I feel more strongly about it.
…Unless you guys absolutely want a preview. Then I would oblige.
Anyway, I'm still gathering questions for the commentary at the end of the update. So if anyone has any questions for Hangover or for me… or for any characters in APBLU (some weirdos want to speak to fictional characters it seems) then you can leave a comment in the comment section of this post.
V0.1.5 will probably be released at the beginning of next week. Around the 20th.
