I always thought shota meant men that looked like boys, whereas here as far as I'm aware, Aiden is the only one that is over 18. And that is mainly because of the tattoos, and the comment at the start of the game that he was held back a year because of lack of attendance.

Which is interesting, because as far as I'm aware he's never missed a class.

Not being an expert myself, I rely on the google search:

So clearly not "men looking like". What taboo would be about underdeveloped or simply short men..? Ain't there quite many metrosexual adult guys easily falling into to this category nowadays?

Would you miss any with Sophia waiting there for you? :sneaky:

What it means on 95zone forum? As all developer claimed them as 18?
Should the tag should removed???
Otherwise the tag is meaningless and r7 is a fake!

WALKTHROUGH UPDATE 0.190
The Walkthrough has been updated, but not on the thread's OP.
Download PDF file below...
---
CHARACTER DIRECTORY 0.185
The Character Directory remains the same. The last update was 0.185.
Just one doubt 0.190 is part 2 correct?
and part 1 is 0.150?

Don't know, don't care... Just shared it's weird to me, especially from a dev so devoted to "realism"...

Neither would you if Sophia was your teacher.
Was more just a general observation that what we're told about Aiden doesn't seem to match with how the game is progressing. Similar to how Aiden presents his ultimatum as if Sophia doesn't have a choice, yet she most certainly has choices, from getting him beaten up to simply ignoring him and sending Dylan away during the week.

I may have just assumed that it's about men because of the whole "All characters are over the age of 18" thing. But because someone might like the look of young boys, they make a character that is 18 but looks younger.

Like how Dylan is (I believe) meant to be about 17, but whose character model is based on a 12-year old (Tween Ryan 7) as far as we know in the fan art thread.

I think Dylan's hope here lies more with Christine. Even if nothing much happens between Dylan and Christine themselves, she can indirectly give Ellie a new perspective on Dylan. I could well imagine that L&P will continue on the same path as before and give Dylan a chance to show himself as a supportive or protected person.

It is difficult to speculate about the content of the next update without a preview. For L&P tendencies with scenes involving water, I could imagine the group deciding to go in the pool together in their underwear, ... Alternative, since we just had an event with water, I could also imagine that there is a sauna at the party, ...

I'm hoping for a twist, too. At some point, an risky ewent has to be seen by someone else. The whole story would then have a lot of possibilities for entanglements and for more connected events in the future. For example, what if Dylan can observe one of the events between Ellie and Sophia. This could then also give Dylan progress with Ellie that would otherwise not be possible.

In my own way I guess I was kind of gripping. The worst thing for me when reading a book or watching a TV show is figuring out the plot midway. If you are able to "predict" evens, then the fun and excitement dies a cold death. In the beginning of L&P there were so many things happening with many possible outcomes.

First Impression:
Sophia was a moody bitch with borderline "Karen" tendencies. With the movers, I though the game was hinting Sophia would become attracted to the thuggish and brutish nature of the movers and that would be a route.... WRONG

Then it became clear that the sister relationship would be the catalysis for Sophia's descend into depravity.... WRONG

Liam, I thought, then would be the cause to have Sophia looking for affection elsewhere.... Wrong

etc...etc....

Was a time where I could not put a finger on the reasons for Sophia's mind set and reasons for her behavior. But as the game has progressed, its clearer how to categorize Sophia. Now it's getting a little too predictable. Am just hoping the developer shatters my illusions and throws me off as to how the story will progress.

Fairly sure you're not wrong about points #2 and #3. I've been arguing that Patricia has been the most corrupting influence in the game so far. Some characters like the movers might have achieved a little, but not as much as she has.

As for Liam, since I haven't downloaded the game in over a year I can't even check the code, but I'm fairly sure the reason Sam and Dylan manage to get as far as they do is precisely because Liam isn't around. It's Liam's focus on work and the promotion he's seeking that prompts him to invite the boss over to watch the game, over date night with Sophia. She wouldn't have even been around for the Dylan event if Liam didn't make that decision.

He's not cheating on Sophia, just neglecting her, but that's almost just as bad. Still means she's not getting the affection she deserves

Guys and girls! I'll write once - the game developer is a GIRL! If you don't know that, that's your problem. But don't write about the mythical Boy!
You mean, that's what they identify as? I'm not really up to date with that new phenomenon.
I remember one of the first bigger delays was justified by a mysterious surgery in Korea, so it might be that.

Wouldn't be the first time. Dev of Free Pass wasn't fussed about pronouns, accepted being referred to as male, moved country, and then announced they preferred she/her.
