XaGnard...I definitely agree with those that say this game has gone on long enough without any real forward progression. Any progression is more of a lateral move as we have now found out Sophia was not the conservative female that required any lenght of time to corrupt. Sophia's corruption portrayal starts and stops as on a whim as does her memory, emotions and attitudes based on the devs mindset for each event.L&P promised a slow burn game, and that's obviously what AWAM has become. In my opinion, to a degree that is already too extreme for a porn game (also also because it took years until finally the mid-game was actually reached), but this can be argued about.
Anyway, at some point, even a slow burn story has to pick up speed and make real progress. For this progress, the categorisation as a porn game is not an excuse but rather reflects the objective. It was clear from the start that Sophia would have to start reducing her restraint and start so action. Not from the very beginning (because it is a slow burn game), but certainly also not never. Also, It is important to realise that virtually nothing has happened so far. The whole game has only just reached a level between a hand job and a blow job. Compared to the mass of games here, that is almost nothing in progress.
The point is, even with AWAM as a slow burn porn game, AWAM is still a porn game. If you imagined something different, it's not L&P's fault, but your own. Therefore, nobody here has to apologise for AWAM for being a porn game. Instead, AWAM beeing a porn game and is a good thing.The fact that real progress is finally being made is not a problem, but a more than overdue necessity.
I was initially attracted to this VN novel porn game, because of the potential of a good story. The quality renders were a departure from such games as SummerTime and Twist. But now 7 years into this, and the story and renders do not hold the same fascination as they once did, as members have become blaise on see Sophia in the same poses as thoughts just in a different situation.
We must also calculate how each choice leads to a different timeline branch in the story. I am not sure anyone has taken the time to map out the fractal branching and how many different branches must be accounted for with each new event. This all and we are only on day 14. I have come to realize that I will never see the end to this game. As the branches multiply with each choice, and the dev incessant additions of new characters, The dev will eventually become overwhelmed and move onto something else.
