Does this need to be 'remade'?

Not that I am jumping on the 'remake' bandwagon ( tbh, it seems a bit silly making the game from scratch in the same engine ). Rather, it's a Redux Plus version of the game that will address several of the game's glaring flaws ( its pacing for one thing, and character/villian development for another ) with more content and maybe new artwork/portraits/redesigns. And probably more Siglud/Cillian shenanigans as a 'Prologue' chapter.

Now I am asking you this. If I do end up making a Redux Plus version of Enelysion, what additional features would you like to see added? Should I make a seperate game page, or keep all relevant updates here? Should I give Laine the option to end up with Siggy or Cil? ( poor Pat is out because of... duties)Should I improve the crafting system, or just leave it out? Would you like to see superbosses and even more optional sidequests/goodies?

Graphically, the game will stay the same, but with a better menu system ( sort of like Tristian's, but I took that demo down now ) and the same battle system ( it worked fine, I don't see any reason to change it, though I may nerf some skills, and buff others ).

If I were a US/Canadian citizen, I'd probably Kickstart the game and see how it would do commercially, but that is a whole new can of worms that I do not want opened, especially if I haven't got a fanbase outside of RM in general ( then again, do I have one at all? ). >< But I do feel that Laine's pre-promotion design is pretty iconic. I may even change her actual promotion outfit ( and make promoted outfits for the other characters too ).

Another thing that has been bothering me for a while is that this game will always be my, well... flagship title. Even if Tristian is released one day, I highly doubt it will be as popular as this game. Since Enelysion feels so much closer to a traditional JRPG, it tends to cater for a larger demographic than Tristian, which focuses more on political drama. And the fact that Laine looks a bit like Lightning probably makes her more popular than Tristy by default ( who is based off my favourite Fire Emblem character )... ><

So yes. Thoughts on the matter, anyone?

Maybe releasing a redux version to address some of the issues would be fine, but I wouldn't add much more content to this already excellent game. I think it'd be best if you worked on something new for us to try! You've definitely got the ability.
Yes, I'd probably need to re-release the Redux version with the patches, but that will be it. =)
