Someone should just Mod this shit using some of the fan art, I bet they could deliver more content than we have received in 4 months.

i worry this game will end like duel family. Get right next to sex between family members and stop because incest and Patreon do not mix well together. aWaM will have to make changes to continue past this or stop, and i think this is why so many other story lines were written into the story. I hope i'm wrong. I do like the story.

I do not quite understand such a frank negativity on the part of the author about the discontent of individual users with the speed of updating his game.
If he said that he would return all the money of the sponsors and would work as he was comfortable, I probably would agree with his position.
but he wants money to go to him and no one needs a report on the reasons for the slow updates.
he is not a slave, but taking other people's money not just as a present, but for the planned amount of work, it is assumed that he took upon himself certain obligations.
and these obligations imply some responsibility for their actions or inaction.
I, too, was a sponsor of this game for some time, but the result of its work did not satisfy me, either by its realism or the speed of updates, so I refused to sponsor this project in the future.
It seems to me that the author needs to calm down and more realistic evaluate both his achievements and his shortcomings. Maybe after this the work will go faster?
but, accordingly, it is necessary to criticize more correctly. In a separate criticism or plot development tips, it seems to me there is a rational kernel. All this should be considered as an alarm to consumers of the product about the further development of the game, because such a speed of updates is most likely to lead to its final stop.
Because in fact, the intervals between updates are getting longer, and the amount of game time is taking less.
Perhaps that is why the behavior of the main character is less and less realism and more animal lust. She's more and more like the insatiable wives from Japanese anime

L&P doesn't take criticism well? I thought that was understood. Which is why I don't get the arguments for L&P doing anything - he's simply not going to listen to them. Don't get me wrong, I love the game, especially since it's one of the few with lesbian action (although there are a few lately that give him a run for the money), but criticizing him is futile, and he's not going to listen.
Who are Emily and April? I do not believe they are characters in the game.
It's the only solution to shorten the time between uupdates and keep the whole story. Presets for lights: morning, noon, afternoon, outside/inside. Presets for poses. Minimal adjustments and render.
What fu*ing obligations (if I understand correctly this Google translate)... he is a anonymous developer, he can disappear tomorrow if he wants like many others. There is no any obligations here, not to Patreon, and not to his supporters. When someone is giving money over Patreon, it is like they throwing it into wishing well.
I don't think that it is so low, because this is the main place how people find out about games. Probably they are not all active here.
is a party with humanno21 a nickname really so naive or doesn’t understand what the argument is about?
anyone who takes money from other people for their work takes on some obligations that they are supposed to fulfill. If the author worked exclusively out of love for art, then no one would say anything to him. Look at Fan Art. there, the authors publish their art scene. No one ever blamed them for the fact that some of them rarely do this. Because these people are engaged in pure creativity.

I can never remember the smaller character's name by the time he releases a new update.

They could reduce renders, but it depends on how they're being utilised. If this upcoming yoga event, for example, has all 380 renders just being static images (i.e. none used as animated frames), then it would certainly seem excessive for something similar to what BaDIK did in just 136 renders in the most recent episode. However, if a lot of these renders are to create animations, then that's OK, but past experience would seem to suggest that they won't be as the Ellie shower event was 146 renders and around 30 were for animations, and the Dylan photoshoot event was 434 renders with no animations.
There are other things they could do like, shortening the number of daily events to around 5-6 as this seems to be about the average for each half-day; make some days have minimal events (like weekend days) in order to cover more than one day in a single update; set their own custom lighting for certain settings (if they haven't done so already); be a little less meticulous with posing and expressions; and reduce the number of characters and story threads to just centre around her advancement with the "core" characters.
It's a little disconcerting to see how stubborn and beligerent they're being on Patreon right now, actually defending this game potentially taking 10 years to be finished and even openly admitting that the 2nd side job with the 3 boys will not have much impact on the story. So then why even have it if it doesn't serve any real purpose? If characters and story threads don't advance Sophia's sexual progress with the core characters, then they shouldn't be in the game.
Cutting out some of these characters and story threads is probably one of the biggest things that could be done, but reducing the number of events per day would go a long way towards improving things and L&P can still tell the story they want with the characters they want, but just spread it out a bit more rather than trying to pack so much into each day.
They're referring to the names of the characters in that artist's gallery.

The dev should listen only for minor changes-like the color of Sophia's nails.Or the color of the blood flowing from Bennet's nose.

Everyone expects so much from the next update, I hope there will not be too much disappointment.
But L&P if you read this message divides by 2 your renderings, keep the most important scenes for this number of renderings (380-450).
That's all we ask of you.
You know very well what you are worth. You have nothing to prove to anyone. Your work speaks for itself. No need to try new things now (the sooner you finish your project, the faster you can start a new one, with a huge gain already).

Looking at the growing number of complains/trolls for AWAM I think it will be better if the haters or those who complaint about this VN start a new AWAM HATE thread and talk whatever they want to talk and leave us(supporters) alone.

What do you think, where do most patrons come from? Places like this are crucial for porn games creators on crowdfunding platforms.
Personally, I don't see many haters/trolls here, but I see many disappointed people, potential patrons, and even ex-patrons, with a valuable input.

Well, I'm a supporter and I complain a lot, mainly about how long it will take for this game to be developed. Honestly, unless L&P has a rig that can only render out 10 images a day, this should be going a lot quicker. If not, and their machine is capable of producing dozens per day, then the only thing that seems to be holding them back is their meticulous attention to detail and having so many different character and story threads, some of which seem totally unnecessary. L&P even openly admitted on Patreon that the 2nd job with the 3 boys will not have an impact on the story, so why are they even in the game in the first place?
There are characters that this game could easily afford to lose and nobody would really mind, but even just reducing the events per day could cut the time between now and the completion of the game in half. Day 12 has 12 events (9 total, 3 variants based on paths) that need to be developed and we know that most half-days end up being around 5-6 events, but if L&P could make one full day 5-6 events, with perhaps a couple of variants, this would surely allow them to do one full day in a single update.
They could also do a couple of days in one update if they make them relatively eventless, i.e. weekends. Maybe they could do both days on the weekend by doing something like this:

Log in or register now.
It's things like this that L&P could do, even have a weekday where Sophia just gets up, goes to work, comes home for an event with Nathalie, and then has a quiet night in or maybe even invites Patricia over for drinks. Maybe they plan on having some quieter, less eventful days later on and we can but hope that they will, but continuing to pack so much into each day such that they can they only provide half-day updates every 3-4 months, doesn't fill people with a lot of confidence that this game will be completed due to the length of time it will take and the great risk this poses of developer burn-out.
