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.

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'm not sure I can make that much customization, but at the very least, it will be skin colors For both male and female mc. 😁😁😁

OOOOOOOH Rin! This is so exciting! I'm really attached to the current characters in NU (esp. Valerius and Tae <3), so I wouldn't want to change them, but I would really love to know more about them than we do, particularly Keelan, Ae-ri, and Tora. I think having the ability to customize the MC more, even more than in OB might give the game a big boost. I personally get more invested in games where I can create a character with different hair and eye color, etc. I remember how much I loved when you added the customization in the 2nd and 3rd chapters of Ascension, but I understand that it will make it harder to make the CG's and character movement animations. Just thinking out loud. Whatever you decide to do, I'm still really excited about this game.

Caitlin, playing on rinmaruexclusive is okay too! I'm combining both data, no worries! :)

I might be one of the few who enjoys NU a bit more than OB, but it just appeals to my general genre more. I want to see that world and lore expand more - it seemed to be starting out on a very “morally shaded of grey” grounding and I like that. I still stand by seeing more customization adding investment for more people. I LOVE the idea of having a male MC. I’ll play as much as I can on the main website for ya to show my support ;)

Rinmaru

Thats definitely the plan!!! 😉😉😉

Rinmaru

😉 No worries! Definitely will be better that the previous either way! 👍

oh, that sounds way cool, thanks for explaining! :)

Nocturnals vs. Diurnals will be the main thing of the new Umbra definitely. Be it a second season or an alternate universe. It will be choice heavy and the choices will matter way more than the first version would ever do. Will be more of a VN than an otome, rest assured. :)

I think, for me, the lore was interesting and the world itself was really nice but the characters were just flat in comparison. Usually, your games are interesting in lore and the characters keep you coming back because you care about them; there is something about them that makes you want to see the story to the end... I just did not feel that with Noctis Umbra characters. So... long explanation short... I think the characters, should they stay the same or be different, need a little more oomph but the lore and overall story are very interesting.

I have to admit, I am disappointed that NU won't get a remake. I was looking forward to the consequences of Mara's decision which side she chose to be on and ofc the development of the impending war btwn nocturnals and diurnals and its conclusion. the in-game politics were the main appeal for me. so does the option of the same characters, but in a further timeline mean events that will happen after the war? same crew just new adventures? this info would help me in my choice.
