Our Life: Now & Forever- Timespan
Added 2021-06-14 18:01:00 +0000 UTCSince we're getting into showing content for the different time periods of Our Life: Now & Forever, I figured it was about time to reveal exactly what the timespan of the story is. This is it-
Step 1: 2010, LIs are 10
Step 2: 2014, LIs are 14
Step 3: 2018, LIs are 18
Step 4: 2022, LIs are 22
I think this is a pretty nice range. It makes the LIs older in the first two Steps so you can experience different types of kid/teen moments, still allows us to set Step 3 right at the precipice of adulthood for a climatic end, makes it so they're not so old in the Step 4 epilogue that we can't manage how many ways their lives could've gone, and keeps the year date modern to about when the game will likely release.
For comparison, that makes Cove two years older than these new love interests! Which again is fitting, since his game will likely have come out about two years earlier than theirs.
What do you guys think of the new ages/years we're going with for the second game?

2021-06-15 11:41:21 +0000 UTCI adored those cutesy moments we had w/ 8 yr old MC but I just know 10yr old MC will be a harbinger of chaos- I mean fun for sure!

2021-06-15 04:14:40 +0000 UTCSo does this mean Baxter is 13 in step 1 since he's 1 year older thatn Cove and the MC from OL 1? I ask because in the boys club picture he doesn't look 3 years older than Qui maybe 1 year at most.

2021-06-15 03:12:13 +0000 UTCi know its only a 2 year age gap, and its not really a big deal... but being able to be a "millennium baby" in OL2 and having the LIs share that with me is so special for some reason T~T i feel so personally attached to this game already <3

2021-06-15 03:08:15 +0000 UTCI'm really glad you went for a higher age range this time. My favorite Step in the first game was definitely Step 2 because teenage hormones and emotions are a perfect combination for dramatic events.

2021-06-15 00:32:37 +0000 UTCI'm a year older than Cove (I thought he was born in '97, but I guess it was '98?) and these characters are the same age as my younger brother :)

2021-06-15 00:14:13 +0000 UTCAs someone who's within that age range (1999-2000), I like that thought. To have a fall-themed game is perfect. It's a bit of a reminder of my teen years and the music I'm into. In the end, I probably will have a good enjoyment out of it all. If the writing might be twice as better as the first, it might hit me harder. Can't wait to see the developments.

2021-06-14 23:16:53 +0000 UTCI think this is a good range! This means the MC and the LI's are a year older than me which is also pretty nice! :)

2021-06-14 19:33:54 +0000 UTCI like this age range ^^ Starting from double digits instead of at 8 like the original. Be interested to see the little differences there are with the age difference :D

2021-06-14 19:04:50 +0000 UTCI didn't realize Baxter was 3 years older than Qiu, since he's 19 in 2016 according to OL1 Step 3. That's kind of an interesting turn-around since Qiu is the 'leader' of their group.

2021-06-14 18:39:19 +0000 UTCIt'll probably come out later on again. We may even release each step separately instead of three together and one apart so people don't have to wait as long for content.

2021-06-14 18:22:24 +0000 UTCI love the age range of the LIs! I lurk more than anything and I didn’t have a lot of expectations with Cove my first play through, but honestly the story is just so heartwarming, even the sad parts, it’s like therapy for my soul. I’m proud to support your games!

2021-06-14 18:20:00 +0000 UTCTfw you realize you're older than Cove AND Liz 😂 Still, these are really nice, thank you for sharing!! 🥰❤

2021-06-14 18:16:00 +0000 UTCI love how close in age I am to all the Lls first I was a little bit younger than Cove and now I'm just a little bit older than these guys. Makes it more relatable for me lol. Honestly, I love that we’re exploring different ages here, I'm excited!

2021-06-14 18:13:22 +0000 UTCI really like these ages! :)

2021-06-14 18:13:03 +0000 UTComg isn’t cove born in 1997?? if these LIs are two years younger then that means they’re born the same year as me!!

2021-06-14 18:05:01 +0000 UTCI love this! Can't wait to cry at the cute 10 year old moments. Plus I love the fact its not the exact same as before, but alike enough with the different stages you can tell the same game developers have done it :D 100/10 will play 100 times

2021-06-14 18:04:03 +0000 UTCDamn, he's a 2000 baby, just like me. Now that's something we both do actually have in common. 🥰

2021-06-14 18:04:00 +0000 UTCCove's a big brother now, haha. 😂 But this is a pretty good setup! 10 is a pretty weird age since you hit double digits and think you're a "big kid" then, so I wonder if that will be a thing.

2021-06-14 18:03:44 +0000 UTCWill Step 4 come out at release for OL2, or will it come later like OL1?
