I might point out that it has been just a year this month since this thread was started. Given the IMMENSE amount of work a project like this takes, I would expect this to take way longer by a factor of at least 5, or even longer.
Just stating this due to my own experience of working 5+ YEARS on the NES Story. Doing something of quality takes a lot of time, and this Mod is NOT something that these fellows are going to be getting paid for and carting a huge load of money to the bank. It is not going to pay their bills, rent their house, or provide food for them to live, real world survival takes actual cash from an actual paying job. Necessarily, their real-world survival has to come first and foremost, giving them a very limited amount of time to focus on this enormous project.
I'm well aware that everything seems "fake" these days, even our past history. There are 'fake assassinations', 'fake moon landings', 'fake 9/11 attacks', 'fake historical events'.....Everything is a Conspiracy, ain't none of it really ever happened, we're living in an alternate, alternate universe, and dead people aren't really dead, only "sleeping". It's all lies, life is a lie, and some giant evil force controls us all and everything for their own mysterious reasons.
Well, the news is....Everything is not "fake".....There has to be some reality, otherwise we don't truly exist. There is the possibility that this is all just a dream, I suppose, in which case we are all really screwed. Many years ago, there was a real book with an imaginary story about how world governments controlled the future by altering the past, the populace went along with this because they were brainwashed and any citizen who dared question this would disappear into the bowels of the 'Ministry of Truth' and never be seen again. I don't really think this is the case here, since these developers and the people associated have nothing to gain by lying about this project.
