L&P could make it somewhat realistic with time if he was to put in some timelapse of more than a week, like two or three, throughout the novel. He could have some narration in there as he did with the first lapse he did for one week. This would allow him to extend the gamedays and maintain the thirty playable game day. The problem with this is it can create plot holes, but on the other hand, like you said, keeping the thirty days intact with no time-lapse makes it unrealistic, which from a fictional standpoint, some realism needs to take place.This is a great point. Corruption games would do well to better balance the female protagonist because we're not all hopelessly naive. It's bad enough when the game's end point is not set, but in a game like AWAM where the end point is a "short" 30 days later, it makes it really hard to achieve the corruption in a believable way. Sophia is basically being asked to go from a sexually conservative (not prude) woman to some level of slut, over the course of 30 days. It would be a nice change of pace to start with a woman who is already on the threshold of going over the edge into slut territory, or can choose to reign herself in.
Some of the novel's women are at a good pace with the corruption, like Sophia/Ellie/Patricia/, to have a "comfortable" outcome with some "realistic" issues in the story. Still, the males on the other side have too much of a gap. I fear there will be some unrealistic/unbelievable events to take place just so certain characters can play catch up now, mostly the males.
I agree it would have been easier for her to start on her borderline of sexuality as there are far too many emotional and sexual walls to hurdle over in thirty days (Playable day), But how would that have affected the GW side of the story since both stories, GW and Filth, run parallel with each other. His story is about breaking Sophia's will of being a GW (Sexually Conservative) to exploring her sexuality vs. keeping it intact for her spouse only.
