How Can SDA and SDE become compatible? (Patreon)

This is a fun question. The answer is simply: Layers. SDA uses a custom follower framework. SDE does not. You will not get party banter from SDE but you will get all of its other content which is immense. You will find this is the dialogue you have been longing for. The added content is just phenomenal.

SDA primarily is focused towards Serana Custom Follower System, quest awareness, Patreon paid content, and its romance plot.

This was something Marty did intentionally as he wants people to pay for name drop content. A design that SDE makes up for in the form of community content.

SDE is focused on the Player themselves and Serana's history. This is something you don't get with SDA as that is part of the Patreon paid content that is behind the naming system. A tiny spoiler as an example is a part of her history she forgets. Serana in SDE is a dog lover and she forgot about ever owning a dog.

King Kong(1933) is a classic example of layers. One day they would film the King Kong puppet. The next day they would film the city. They would then layer the films to create the final form. Some films will have 3 layers some can have 12. This is a practice we do in modding (overriting files/patches) as well as in digital art (Adobe Photoshop is legendary for the layer capabilities). It is used very much in many artforms.

Let's say Marty's SDA mod is a fruit salad consisting of pears, apples, and cherries. You have to pay to add extra fruit and choose the right name to complete the salad. It is a secret menu.

Garmagic's SDE mod gives you extra fruit regardless of the name.

The continuity comes from Kerstyn's voice acting.
