My call is for this; the narrative is honestly fine, aside from some early installment weirdness.
What does need changes is the fact the system is a sprawling and continously growing leviathan.

The inconsistencies and plot elements are part of the charm. You think that i've read all of these pages for them to be labeled as worse than they are?
Bullshit, reboot it once Neps story is finished if you must.
[x] Fuck all that, keep going as is!
Seriously, if the issues you feel are enough to make it not worth it, restart it for your own sake regardless of our desires. But if you're asking for our view on what worth your writing has had, be relieved; It's special as fuck regardless of it's rough edges and whilst it can be made better, that would detract from what you have here.
Redoing this regardless of what disdain you may hold for it (if any) is spit to the face of the quality storytelling that has occurred. Do not value yourself or your work so lightly.
At this point i need to see this through to the end.

Honestly, I was turned off of design revisions severely ever since it became obvious that practically nobody is willing to use early posts as precedents for mechanics (paraphrasing, "that post was a year ago, it's outdated"), AND after having to go through the redesigns of spin-off quests from this one.
I'd rather to see us finish this quest while using mechanics that we are nonetheless proficient in, than have it go under a revision. As Russians say, "Лучше плохо ехать, чем хорошо идти" (It's better have a bad ride than a good walk).

As someone who's rebooted a quest twice, take it from me.
Don't.

Saying this as a person that likes writing, no work is perfect, the fact it started as a very different thing is something to remember, yes, but it's not something to erase.
It shows how much this quest became so much more.
Do not sell your efforts short, it has problems, yes, but all stories have problems
If you want to reboot it, there is always time after... But the only time to end this quest is now.
Perfect is the enemy of good.
Seriously,what you thinking right now happen to everyone that writes something, but in short
I concur with this.

This story isn't over. Hell, there was gonna be a sequel, though I don't know whether that's still a thing. But don't let Nep's story end here.

The mechanics have their place, but they aren't the most important thing. A fun and engaging story is the most important thing, and we've already got that.
