Animations were the excuse to delay the current update. He'll likely take a month break at some point and when he returns, he'll have an entirely new excuse...ahem...idea, to extend the development time on the next update. If he doesn't, i'll be somewhat surprised.
Well, hopefully he'll have the next update ready to go 3 to 5 months down the road and will release it when it's actually finished rather than trying to add anything else into the game just to slow down development time.
This worries me cause some devs go back so far they do remakes of remakes before they ever finish what they're currently working on just to drag out their development cycle. If L&P gets that idea in his head to do, this will never see an end before 2100 or later.

BTW if 0.160 is such a small update,why split it?is moving!!! again!!! lol i can see 0.155 and 0.160 together
It would make sense to do it together with 0.155.
Or add 0.165 to 0.160.

I wouldn't be shocked if, late into v0.160's development, L&P makes an announcement that he has decided to add animations to it. Something along the lines of:
"Hey everyone, after much thought I've decided that this update would be made much better with animations. My helper has started on them and I hope to have them ready in another 30 to 45 days. I'll try to get a teaser out next week."
I can absolutely see that happening.
armion82 that's another possibility. I don't think it will happen, but it would speak to the absolute shambles that his development process is in if he rolls them both into one update.

We all know something is going to happen, it's just how he's been operating the last couple years. So far, like i already said, he hasn't decided to start a remake. If he ever does that before finishing this, that's pretty much the last nail in the coffin. Too many devs have been pulling that lately just to milk their patrons and it's gotten just a bit annoying.
It's not that it's in shambles. He's just releasing a third of what he use to per update. This is after he updated his computer no less. Makes me wonder why more people aren't calling him on his BS. If you upgrade a computer to speed up rendering time, that logically means one would render the same amount in a shorter time frame or add more content while keeping the same prior development cycle, both of which would speed up development of the game overall. Something is off about it and some of us know that. We get lambasted for even remotely criticizing him and/or many of our posts get deleted in "thread cleanups" by the mods.

Then why they shown in progress bar its completed... L&P should hv updated earlier only about the animations...

is the Dylan/Ellie why L&P would add animations? is super early for the Brother/sister sex

I can see him deciding to add animations for non-sex related events. Maybe Ellie getting changed or Sophia swimming. The point is that he'll find some reason to delay the release.is the Dylan/Ellie why L&P would add animations? is super early for the Brother/sister sex
As I've said before, subs aren't calling his BS because they're afraid he'll stop entirely before they get what they want (and will never get anyway, in my opinion).
IN MY OPINION, L&P is performing a pretty blatant scam and the insidious part of a scam is that about half of the victims will become proponents of the scam due to an inability to admit they were scammed. That and/or what is called "sunken cost fallacy", the idea that one must keep going because of how much they have already invested...causing them to lose more and more.
It's a porn game and the subs want to see Sophia fuck who they want to see her fuck. Be it Sam, Dylan, Ellie, Morello, some giant black dude, etc. That nut keeps them paying and defending an obvious scam (IN MY OPINION) because, hark, what if they speak up and he abandons AWAM altogether. Which, IN MY OPINION, he'll do eventually one day anyway long before everyone paying is satisfied.
That or he'll keep going until 2040, the often meme'd but very real timeframe based on his release timeline and supposed pre-planned story. A story which, IN MY OPINION, is so clearly and obviously not planned out but made up as he has been going.
Why do I care enough to post these things? As I've said, it's sad to see and I find some entertainment in the more "lost" among his devout followers.
As I posted earlier, the best analog for these people are the guy paying for the prostitute in 'Idiocracy', paying her for sexual services she promises to give tomorrow...only to meet the next day and do it all again.
Does the man get angry? No. He gets more and more excited, lol. He's too dumb to see he's being had by her and, in fact, is so dumb that he gets more and more excited by the waiting while still paying each day for services he hasn't got and will never get.
There is comedy here but I mostly feel bad because L&P has a story he could really do something with if he, IN MY OPINION, wasn't so blatantly greedy. It's a good basis of a story with good characters. His renders are even quite good. It's just that nothing he does demands th time he claims. The dude, IN MY OPINION, just wants to milk it and it couldn't be more obvious.

I am still p*ssed off because the way L&P was talking a few weeks ago, it seemed that animations would only have a slight delay to V0.155, and that, (perhaps naively) I had assumed that we would get the release in the first week of March. So I am still very irate that he is NOW saying last third of March.....
It is getting harder and harder to stay even cautiously optimistic about future updates.....

That's becoming a big issue with many of the devs on patreon. They're learning from the behavior of triple A game developers that started that bullshit over a decade ago. One in particular which i'm certain most people here know all about, Scam Citizen.
They're called fat whales and stupid for a reason. I suppose in a way, people here should be thankful for them cause it's keeping the game inching along like a snail. How long that's going to last however is dependent upon L&P's monetary goal. My guess is that he'll abandon the game in about another year, maybe two or announce that he's doing a remake before even finishing the game, likely right at the point where the filthy route would start getting sex scenes. Those same fat whales would keep throwing money at him too in the event that happens.
It's absurd what he's doing in this regard and all of it started shortly after he upgraded his computer a few years back. Yet, he expects everyone to believe everything he says about his development cycle. Only a complete fool would keep defending him at this point rather than asking the questions about why his development cycle slowed down at that point when it should have sped up like he said it would. I said it from the beginning and still do to this day, he's got some good ideas in this game, the rendering is awesome still and the story is good considering it's a porn game. Though, like you pointed out, it's becoming more and more obvious that he likely didn't plan it all out. There are things he's added in that are obviously last minute planned out for the purpose of extending his development time rather than just focusing on developing the content of the two main storylines of the goodwife and filthy routes. Side stories like he recently added with those boys sophia can teach as a second job was just ridiculous to even consider, let alone actually add in to the game.

You've picked two games for your signature that are pretty hard to feel optimistic about...
