Regarding the teaser, there should be much more to it, I think its pretty meh if it just ends up being "wear this and lets go for a ride".

I hope she didn't go get dressed in another store else you know that L&P just had to render a whole new environment (store) just to show her go in, change clothers and go out :D

Curious to see how she explains this to her company. They must have left before.

Are you hinting at something like a fashion show,or posing on the bike for picture?
Very doubtful

I wouldn't want a romantic ride.
On the other hand, if there's anything else, a show for a lucky few, why the need for a suit and motorbike? She could have followed in her own car.
Sounds like it's just a ride.

what if Aiden asks her to wear the suit to go on a ride with her and then it turns out he is involving her in some "crime" (nothing too big). Not a robbery, but something that makes Sophia even more dependable from Aiden (partner in crime) and at the same time it is something that Sophia after all enjoys, like the thrilling of doing something borderline legal. In that case the suit has nothing much to do with the task. Too far fetched?

Two thoughts:

1) the point of the upgraded hardware was to improve (decrease) development time. So it wasn't supposed to be the same old L&P, it was supposed to make things easier. Instead he went 180 degrees in the wrong direction. That's (part) of the strong reaction to the announcement. Things were supposed to be different.

2) if you're sincerely happy with the output, ok. But considering the fact that we're looking at 15 or so years for completion at this rate, I think you have accept that there's a very good chance the game never gets finished. I never really worried about this until this update but now it seems unavoidable.

1) According to the dev's goal on Patreon, the reasons for his hardware upgrade was to render faster and to switch to 1080p renders. The time he gained from this upgrade while rendering in 1080p is only 5% from the time it took him to render in 720p with his old setup, so he does render faster, and to me it seems true, because his progress reports for the upcoming update shows that rendered scenes is always 0-10% lower than his created scenes which is a smaller difference then what I remember from other updates (but that's just my impression). The problem here is with your expectations. L&P said it a lot of times (and the progress reports shows it) that scene creation takes much more time than the rendering process itself...

2) I'm not looking forward to the VN's completion, So It doesn't really matters to me if it's 5, 10 or 15 years from now. I'm enjoying the ride (though it's a very slow ride). I really love it and I'm supporting it financially because I enjoy it and that's all. If it gets abandoned tomorrow (very unlikely) I'll be disappointed, but I'll get over it. My life is not dependent on it...

Dressed like that just for a "ride", though, I find it a bit too little. It has to be something else.
What you say is not excluded.

I've got no idea what to make of the teaser pic. I've defended the blackmail but this looks like it's something else, with the cost of Sophia's outfit being enough to feed a family for a month. Used once for a task & mothballed, or perhaps given as a gift, or what? How many of us have owned leather jackets &/or some other item? Those who have will know that it looks great (as does Sophia) but it's not the sensitive fabric that some think....it's usually cold, especially braless on a bike. It makes the nipple slip idea plausible. [I don't wear leather now. Not only would it look ridiculous at my age but I am more conscious of the cruelty of the leather industry, so maybe today's leather is more supple than it used to be]?

Aiden must have a source of income which leads to thoughts of drug-dealing & crime. Maybe his uncle is generous with his pocket-money. "Here you young rascal, go & buy yourself a top-of-the-range bike. That'll keep you occupied & don't do anything I wouldn't do."

This task looks like nothing I could have forseen. I still have the feeling that the tasks are going to fizzle out in some way, probably sooner rather than later. At least L&P has maintained the power to surprise.

Could be as simple as walking a round town with Aiden, as he will enjoys the looks/leers/wolf whistles that Sophia will get as she walks,maybe even arm in arm after all Aiden does enjoy a show.
Put Sophia on public display while Aiden enjoys the view and looks of other people

What a show it would be if they bumped into Liam.

Have we seen the event that runs parallel to the 3rd task?
All we know about it is that it will open up more opportunities/possibilities for Sophia later on so maybe she will be spotted.

Any of them would put the proverbial amongst the pigeons. So, that could be why the pigeons were included in the crossing the road scene. I like pigeons. Did I mention that they're urban survival specialists? I did, well they are...
