this is my first ever post on what was going to be my writing blog, mainly for mcl, even though the fandom's dying I wanted to contribute to it, and, you know, since not a lot of people even write for it anymore, I wanted to write what I would've wanted to read in here but alas I am the clown and I just had a fever dream last night and it was just insane and I loved it so much so I decided to try my chances right crazy shit happens every day so
So here's an idea for Beemoov to continue my candy love without possibly saturating the story or disappointing fans. This is my actual official pitch for two new MCL games, even though they'll probably never even see this. Buckle up:
The fans have been complaining and begging for the return of the old love interests since they have been deleted. It was a choice, that's for sure, but the damage can be fixed, I think. My idea is a university life and love life reboot, but with the old crushes. These games would be an alternative storyline, where Candy doesn't move back to the city she went to high school in but instead moves to where Kentin, Armin, and Lysander live. There we can have two new love interests introduced, to complete the amount of five routes in total. The rushed arcs of Kentin and Armin could be brought back and more fully explored, along with Lysander's grief and guilt for the death of his family, his desire to keep the farm and avoid his living relatives and old friends to detach himself from his old life and his pain for not following his dreams and not wanting to let his parents down or kill their legacy by selling the farm.
Kentin could have actual closure and development regarding his childhood traumas, insecurities, and all that he went through during military school. What he had to do to fit in and survive and how he thought that acting that same way was the only way he could make it through adulthood and how he chooses to cope with everything he's been through. Armin could also have some closure regarding his family and the loss of his biological parents. Maybe he moved away from Alexy because he wanted to feel closer to them, and that was the city they lived and died in. maybe his adoptive parents moved there, and he didn't want to be away from them, or he wanted to give his older brother a truer chance and kept in touch with him, and he ended up convincing Armin to move to where he lives, where he could have the opportunity to get the tech job Alexy says he has on university life, and Kentin went along with, since Evan convinced him to go back to the military, and their arcs could still be linked. Kentin would grow as a person and find out what he truly wants outside what he believes to be expected of him from his father and Evan himself, and so could Armin, and Lysander.
All of that outside of the two new love interests, who could be literally anyone. Viktor could be finally introduced into the game, and even his story in the mangas could be kept as canon but slightly adapted, and maybe Evan himself could be a love interest, as many players theorized them to be before the announcement of Nathaniel in uni life. To keep the LGBTQIA+ route would also be possible, introducing a female love interest again, that could also be an old high school friend that happened to move there as well, or not, the possibilities are literally endless.
I, like many other fans of the game, don't want it to die but have also been losing interest in the story as it progresses. To me, it started with the death of these three crushes. I was a Lysander girl myself, and the ending he got just killed me every single time Rosa or Leigh or Castiel showed up, and I was reminded that they just kept living their lives, and Lysander didn't. Same for Armin, every time Alexy showed up. Kentin was tragically forgotten, and he as well deserved so much more than that, and, maybe, this could be an opportunity to do that, to give these wildly loved characters the development and ending they deserve, to regain the love and the interest of so many fans and players who were unhappy with the choices made by the company and simply lost the desire to play my candy love, despite loving it and having grown up playing it.
In the events of someone of Beemoov's team seeing this and taking it seriously, which I sincerely hope does happen, and this gets somehow approved and does actually happen, I don't even want any sort of credit or even acknowledgment, pretend this post never existed, and you came up with the idea yourself, and I'll be happy to just be able to play the game.
Either way, this is just some feedback and a hopeful dream of getting my loved character back and done right by, even though it might be completely unreasonable and unreachable. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.
The only way I'd ever play this game again 🤭
