White Night - Total Conversion v1.1

[plutomaniac]

I totally agree with both arguments. Look, it is normal that the expectations are so high. You are the first one to make an actual big modern Amnesia mod with a new unique story. People want changes and with WN you are actually braking the ice. I am also bored of the same stories set at the 19th century with similar stories and stuff like that.

Now for the first argument about quality. Yes, you are right. I have learned that the hard way while making Unbirth. At the moment I am really frustrated with it, but for a different reason. I am realizing how vast it has to be and how big as a game it will be. Also, the conversions...so boring and tiring. Only the idea of that makes me tired and not willing to continue. Well, you are experiencing something different. You want to make it perfect so that you can satisfy everyone who has been waiting to play it. Believe me, when it will be released, noone will tell you that it was bad or more puzzles needed. At least noone that knows how much work and how difficult it is to create a damn modern mod!

I remember you saying that if you could, you would somehow lock the entities, textures, planes, sounds and everything custom made or converted. Me too. If I could, I would do it. This is the main reason why I am thinking whether Unbirth is worth all this trouble. I see some very nicely built Amnesia-like stories and I think: how the hell did he do all this work in such a sort time? Well, it is because everything is already made and very easy to piece together. Most scripts are done or can be found at the forums. Everything is much easier.

So yes, release it whenever it is ready and don't worry about time so much. There is a greek expression about that: Καθετί καλό, θέλει τον χρόνο του --> The more it takes, the better it will be. Right now I'm thinking, will Unbirth be released in 2012 or 2013? Go figure...
