I guess this is the exact reason some want to see the janitor.

- Start date
Fair point, only I wouldn't like to be on the end of it!
Just sayin'.
I don't care about those details, I'm just surprised that people who say even the grass must look real now shrug their shoulders at these main character details.
There's no hostility in my messages, if you see it that way, the problem is in your head, not mine. All you want to do is to lure me into answering you so you can classify it as "trolling/kink shaming/wtv" so you can then report it.
I won't give you any more attention, you're going straight into my ignore list, as I don't think you'll ever say something that is worthwile reading.

Don't think so.
I'm still waiting to see if they publish the one about about what time of day it was due to the angle of the sunlight going through the classroom window!

This really does look grim right now. And this graph doesn't even include the entire time from one update to another, which would add 2 more weeks to the development cycle as the previous release was on the 20th of November. Means that alltogether we're currently looking at almost 3 months for ~30% of the previous update's length and content. Or in other words, if this was still a 1/3rd of a PD update as before, it would take L&P around 9 months to complete it.
Let that sink in. 9 months for 1/3rd of a PD, or 27 months for a single playable day. That's 2 years and 3 months for a PD and over 40 years to complete the game.
I get that he's taken some time off for whatever he's working on (about a week), but he's also been working at "regular" pace (as can be seen in one of his Patreon messages ViperDonkey had posted earlier) in the beginning of this development cycle with around 5% progress per day. That would obviously shave some time off, but all in all this is just awful and it's seemingly getting worse and worse with every passing year.
Can't wait to see postprocessing going at the same % rate than last times but with way less renders.
You are active in this thread for nearly 1 - 1.5 years, I guess?
First you claimed something like L&P is a liar and you criticized his works. Then the members of this forum said the overly used dialogue "you have to be a patron if you wanna criticize". So you decided to become a patron and said the same thing just to prove that you were right. Then you shared the "whoops" teaser that the dev asked not to share since his patrons doesn't like to be wasting their money when all the things they get by paying are available in this forum for free. Then you also did the same thing before the release of the last update by sharing many teasers.
I mean, who spends money to prove that you are right to some strangers in the internet. You do all those things and expect people to believe that there is no hostility in your messages?
It so happens that I agree with many things that you say about the dev but you are one of the main reasons why this thread has so much toxicity.
I'm not asking you to not post any messages or don't express your indifference but don't act like a egocentric person. It doesn't matter whether you are right or wrong, but don't bully those who like the game.
The other day you quoted sabertooth's post and told him you weren't actually talking to him and today you are saying that sabertooth is trying to lure you into replying to him just so he can report your post. Wow.

I think that the teaser could be still part of the Aiden's task:
For the 2nd task he could ask to do something "fun" in the classroom at the beginning, i.e. last teaser with all the possible ideas, panties or everything we have explored.
Then for the "real" task he could ask to do something out of the classroom. Either at the end of Sophia's classes and during another hour of teaching when Sophia is free but all the students are in the classrooms, or he could ask Sophia to leave the classroom to accomplish the task leaving some of the student in charge in the meanwhile (I don't know if this is possible/legal in the US system, in my personal experience it happened sometimes that the teacher left for few minutes leaving a student in charge of keeping the class in check).
Either way, Sophia is wandering in the desert corridors of the school to accomplish the task.
We know that she is not in the floor of her classroom (see nexer images with previous classes / Bennet) so here are some possibilities:
I'm just putting on the table another possibility.
It can make sense even in the breakthrough of the whole event. Assuming it takes 80%, the first teaser happened when he was at 10% SC so we can ballpark a 15% of renders for the wake up, some chitchatting with the family and the drive to school. The second teaser happened at 50% SC which could be the end of the "fun" part in the classroom and now around 70% the actual task (assuming it is not as complex as the 3rd one).
And I know, as usual, there are a lot of ifs but we are here for this
- it's a bonus teaser and not a teaser of the bonus storyline. He always calls bonus teaser an extra and maybe last teaser for an event (e.g. the hand on Sophia's tight for Sam's event) just to keep us busy with the interpretation
- we are 70% in SC. I think it is a realistic estimate to have Aiden's event covering 75-80% of the update, given that the bonus storyline and Morello will be short, say 10% each or 15% and 10% respectively.
For Morello, I don't think it will go more than the 30 renders he made for the first meeting Sophia/Liam/Morello to discuss the debt, there may be some back and forth dialogues but I don't see many renders for this part (let alone some "action").
For the bonus storyline, he usually uses it to introduce a new storyline with an existing (hopefully) character and again it should be short and 10%-15% should do it.

We know that she is not in the floor of her classroom (see nexer images with previous classes / Bennet) so here are some possibilities:
- it could be that she has furtively accomplished the task and she is trying to go back but the "coast is not clear". There could be someone in the corridor who could question her presence, e.g. the principal, or somebody she does not want to meet, e.g. Bennet, the janitor or other students, so she has to take the courage to go and deal with them (this is why she is not really covering but just looking ready to go)
- or she is meeting with Aiden and/or whomever for actually doing the task and she is assessing the situation before going.

I think that the teaser could still part of the Aiden's task:
With these premises it could make sense that the teaser refers to either the task or the end of it.
- it's a bonus teaser and not a teaser of the bonus storyline. He always call bonus teaser an extra and maybe last teaser for an event (e.g. the hand on Sophia's tight for Sam's event) just to keep us busy with the interpretation

Like for the 2nd task he could ask to do something "fun" in the classroom at the beginning, i.e. last teaser with all the possible ideas, panties or everything we have explored.
Then for the "real" task he could ask to do something out of the classroom. Either at the end of Sophia's classes and during another hour of teaching when Sophia is free but all the students are in the classrooms, or he could ask Sophia to leave the classroom to accomplish the task leaving some of the student in charge in the meanwhile (I don't know if this is possible/legal in the US system, in my personal experience it happened sometimes that the teacher left for few minutes leaving a student in charge of keeping the class in check).

Don't ask me what could be the task in this scenario, though!
- or she is meeting with Aiden and/or whomever for actually doing the task and she is assessing the situation before going.
It can make sense even in the breakthrough of the whole event. Assuming it takes 80%, the first teaser happened when he was at 10% SC so we can ballpark a 15% of renders for the wake up, some chitchatting with the family and the drive to school.

Well, the teaser was intriguing but I won't speculate about it. There are so many possibilities, several of which have already been referred to. We're used to seeing Sophia's nipples looking like "chapel hat pegs" & through a blouse with no bra it's possible, even probable but there's no way they'd be visible through that kind of jacket, which also has the "boob pocket" thing going on. Are the renders becoming less realistic & the quality lower to tie in with the increase in time between updates? That's a real question.
Just thought I'd try a post to see what happens after a week of not commenting. As you can see, whether you like the content or not, it's definitely on topic. Now I wait to see if it gets deleted & what the reason might be this time, when & if it happens, 1,2,3....

Can someone explain what this is/why it's happening?
