Well this cat is already spending more time in other threads with nicer devs, better content and faster updates. Already admitted I'm mainly here out of curiosity and habit.

That would be an argument if the teaser was going to reveal anything we pretty much didn't already know. Last time there was a teaser patrons were asked not to divulge, it only confirmed what we already know: that the Sophia/Dylan event was going to be followed by the Nathalie event. But we already knew that from the dialogue at the end of the v.130 update.

Just from the title of the teaser "Shake dat booty", we know it's just going to be Sophia and Patricia dancing. Nothing interesting, since it's not a Patricia event. So there's unlikely to be any actual information worth divulging.
As I said, it doesn't matter that the two women dance. This behavior during the concert is logical and has already been suspected by others here.
Probes that the situation will probably be seen as a continuation of Sophia's experiences and thoughts during art class. Again, Sophia will be the center of the sexual attention of all present - including the attention of Patricia (so a little Patrica Event after all). Again she will feel perceived as a sexual object. Sophia will be aroused again. That'll get her in the mood for Sam.
But above all because I think Aiden will force Sophia to perform in a bar at some point, topless. The memory of this event will "help" her to overcome her shame and fear.

Well, it's just because Liam was replaced by his son. Liam was originally made to be the second main character, now it's Dylan.
I understood L & P's statements to mean that Liam and Sophia were equal main characters whose story should be told in parallel. For me that means the way the story is now being developed around Sophia, there would also have been a story with Liam in which Liam, depending on the player's choice, would not have been a food lover. Dylan was and is only a minor, an important one, but only a minor character.
But I believe that the scenes Dylan / Elli make use of the original plot and possibly told a father / daughter story.

is moving!!!
Indeed. Assuming that my weights are roughly accurate this puts the entire update just over the 50% mark after 75 days. If the pace levels off here then early December is possible (July 5 + 150 days). The trend, however, suggests that is not to be.

Forgive me but was the vibe "Sophia won't sleep be sleeping with everyone" relating to everyone overall, or she won't be able to sleep with "everyone" in one playthrough?

Honestly with the hints given it feels like she will be able to sleep with a majority of the characters but across different save routes.

Regretably perhaps, at the rate we're going (after 4 years), this question could end up being largely academic!

It was almost clearer a year ago than it is now to guess how far Sophi would fall. After the tutoring scene all bets are off as far as I'm concerned. While there's no chance that players can sleep with all potential partners in one playthrough, I do think it's possible that Sophia has numerous one-night stands. A great example will be if Sophia sleeps with the mailman or any character equally uninvolved in the story. If she sleeps with someone like him, then I think we should expect a fuck-fest by the end of the game.

Funny that you should you should mention the mail man as something does happen between them but what that maybe is anybody guess.
Even with multi play throughs I still think some interaction will still be limited and not involve intercourse

Sex. If Sophia and the mailmen have sex then anyone and everyone is fair game. But the mailman will probably come late (no pun intended) so he'd be a bad barometer. The better example would maybe be Aiden having sex with Sophia in the next five or so tasks. If he does that, then, wow, wild times.

That is if we ever get to finish the tasks and L&P throws us a curve ball.
Think of when Bobby got shot in Dallas and in the end it was all a dream,curve ball time

If L&P throws a curveball regarding Aiden it could be deciding to move all future tasks to DLC. It would fuck the game's continuity.
He could throw a curve ball regarding most of the characters in AwAm.
Sophia gets pregnant by somebody else.
Sophia catches an STD and proceeds to give it to Liam or anybody else in the family or close friends.
Not really a curve ball but what an interesting notion for the Parker family to all catch an STD off Sophia

A pregnancy (scare) seems likely.
The STD is funny and gross, but I don't think L&P will go that direction.

A more traditional curve ball would be something like Liam discovering that Sophia is cheating, but he's into it.

I don't think that we'll get to finish the tasks. That's not good from my POV but I have to be realistic. If I was still betting it would be good to see the bets on which number might be reached before 2025, or alternatively, before the game is abandoned. If anything happens with the mailman I hope it's no more than a kiss on the cheek when he announces his retirement, or at most, a kiss under the mistletoe. There's such a choice & range of possible sexual encounter partners, after all. I may be old but I can still remember how many old people I fancied when I was young, i.e. none.

Pregnancy has been hinted at, or at least discussed. Surely, it's only a sexual fantasy for youths who havn't made a woman pregnant yet. IRL it's about as sexy as a hot water bottle & no, it doesn't signify that the woman is now your trophy because you've made her belly big. If anybody doubts me, just wait & see & then grow up, fast, because you'll need to. If it turns out to be anything more than a scare, it will be another downturn of this game becoming like most others in the genre & IMO, we're already well on the way to that outcome, minus the actual sex of course.

Other questions, (maybe there should be a poll), concern the DLCs.....who really believes we'll ever see them? How many will be projected before the game ends? Which stories will end up in a 'forthcoming' DLC? Why not "DLC" the two side jobs now? etc., etc.

I periodically, (for the last two years at least), say that this game needs to change. SOMETHING needs to change & I don't just mean Sophia's ability to choose suitable clothes for an event. There should be a step change in the production rate & a dramatic increase in action on all fronts. This is necessary to shorten the current realistic but frankly ludicrous timescale associated with the 'normal' output. Will this happen? Well of course not but it raises more questions.

Yes, I remember Bobby waking up in the shower on Dallas, (the only soap I would ever watch & try not to miss). It was never the same after that particular curveball.
