discussion Unlocked gallery from the beginning.

[exlurker]

It should start locked and open naturally as game progresses, and then there should be a menu to unlock rest while indicating not shown in game and an additional option to show hint at gallery images.

for me i prefer it to be unlocked for the people who just want to see the scenes and if the people who care for the game the play it normally

I prefer to unlock all scenes when having defeated the game.
If it's a really good game I like I don't mind hunting down the specific scenes too (if it requires different requirements etc.)

I usually like the find scenes on my own and just take a normal pace unless its a very boring story and then I will just skip and unlock the scenes. Once I go through the main story I usually just unlock the rest of the scenes if I can unless I really enjoyed it and will try to find the other scenes.

Locked gallery helps you to know if there are missing scenes due to different path, in renpy games you can unlock them by editing the gallery code and often people post the patch.
Anyway I don't replay scenes from gallery because I delete the game when it ends so its not an issue to me but I can understand that it helps if you wanna see scenes and not the story

I prefer earn the gallery if possible.
