Thank you for pulling the alien element and scaling back the User presence, ‘Arrival’ is the proposal that I think best carries the theme and spirit of Reboot, and those modifications clear my remaining concerns. Personally, I like the idea Gnosis being a rogue AI created explicitly by the Users, particularly if it makes Gnosis’s goals and motivations different than the other viruses we’ve seen. The name Gnosis it self makes me think of a being trying to gain the knowledge and power to ascend, perhaps he believes he can become a user and join his original creators? Just a though. Good luck!
I think you guys are heading in a very good direction with this project. It's awesome that you guys can admit that you made some less than desirable decisions to start with and are willing to change them. I really like Dot's new design, it looks a lot more like th original Dot and I think the clothing changes would be fine, although maybe not as dramatic of a change as the your first designs.
1. I LIKED that the Gnosis was an alien supercomputer. But I won't curse the skies that you're getting rid of it, lol.
2. User. Oh, User. Heh. I have to say, of all the pitches, I like your idea for the mystique of the User, working with the User, "discovering its true nature" or whatnot, and something about its "mysterious system called Earth" to be, by far, the most interesting User-related involvement. Please don't ditch this unless it turns out to be completely unmanageable.
3. Glad you're taking another look at character designs.

Okay, I fixed it and posted a retraction. Please do not attempt to delete me, though I deserve it.
