Pigeons are not people. Even if they try to identify as people. But, people can be pigeons. Let me load some rock salt.

Bane was just stating the wishes of the dev not to have this teaser published on any any pirate or forum site!

I think bane is right. People should respect L&P's labour.

I think you, like so many others, are overlooking the symbolism of the pigeons as well as their potential foreshadowing of future events, and of course the importance of the number of pigeons. I haven’t looked into the numerology just yet but I’m expecting huge revelations.
What dev is doing in three years in game is respectful. He is making adult game but with no enough adult update to prove 3years spent on game.
I think my expectations are probably too high for this update. I am likely to be disappointed.

Speaking of expectations, I've been meaning to sit down and write out my expectations for this update, and what I need to see in order to feel positive about the direction of the game. This is not a comprehensive list, just a stream of consciousness.
Must Haves:
I think those are fair and reasonable requirements.
Must Haves:
- I have to see a sensible and substantive progression in the Sophia/Aiden story. Since that will be the meat of this update, this storyline has to stick the landing. While I do not expect anything too sexy (and don't want anything out of character) I do need to better understand why Sophia would continue to go along with Aiden's tasks. I expect that we'll get some sort of Aiden Redemption story arc.
- Whatever the Aiden task is, it has to be memorable.
- At least 45 minutes of gameplay.
- I'd like to see some development of Liam as a character outside of his job or gambling. If he's going to be involved in the wedding dress scene, it would be good to see him contribute something meaningful.
- Nudity. While it isn't required, it's always nice to get a little bit of sexual nudity (changing doesn't count). It has to be tasteful and make sense in the context of the game.
- I don't expect or need any sex in this update.
- I don't expect any substantial change in the Sophia/Dylan relationship
- I don't expect or want anything too sexually charged or dangerous from the Aiden task.
- This update cannot bore me, after 5 months it would be a dagger if I end up bored
- While I expect some sensible and substantive progression in the Sophia/Aiden story, I do not expect this task to be a turning point- but I could see it setting up a turning point.
I think those are fair and reasonable requirements.
I'll admit, I'd forgotten the Good Wife path. I did play it back in 2018/19 but nothing much happened, so I stopped. As I havn't the knowledge or skills to make comments when it comes to the rendering process, I have to think of other ways to speed things up. Months ago I was one of those supporting the dropping of one or both of the side-jobs & writing out various minor characters. It transpired that the Dev would not countenance discarding the side-jobs & there was no word about minor actors, so it seemed that taking out some of the main paths could be the only remaining option.
I know that getting rid of the blackmail, (or never starting it), is a relatively straightforward matter but this is not the same as ditching it altogether from the game, ie no more development time spent on any aspect of it. This is the precise opposite of what I personally want but the game end horizon is moving too far away. IMO balance & fairness requires dropping the Dylan incest route, preferably at the same time. Just think of the time that would save.
If everything carries on as it is currently, who knows what will happen but based on experience of other games, it's very possible that neither the blackmail or Dylan incest routes will ever be brought to a proper conclusion. So why not remove them now & save us all the frustration? Just a thought....

I hear you, and your general point about needing to trim the game down is on point. However, if you cut the blackmail story and the Dylan story, both the game and its supporters, would crumble. You could maybe cut any more blackmail, but if you cut the Dylan love interest it would gut the game's patrons. I don't think the game could survive losing both.

There is supposed to be no more blackmail in the game, but the devs definition of blackmail is different from everybody else's,he doesn't count the Morrello story as blackmail.
The Bennett storyline has almost reached its end, according to the dev, and whether or not we will see Larry again is open to debate.
Morello still has a part still to play but he also could be finished soon ,so I think the character numbers will drop, but it will take a long time.
Given Dylan's much-vaunted popularity, you're probably right & I would hate to lose the blackmail but it's getting past the time for something to change massively, if the risk of abandonment is to be minimised. Maybe there's some less important aspects that could be quietly dropped. There doesn't need to be a dramatic occurence for this to happen. [I'm thinking of the many TV soap characters who have 'gone upstairs' never to be seen coming down....or ever again. There was even a website for this practice, I think].
