I've said this a couple of times now, based on the story as it's developed and the future updates. Dylan is the hero of the story, we're just watching it through Sophia's eyes. The fact that there is now a tracker for his love / relationship interests mixed in amongst Sophia's further solidified that for me.
I don't want to take away from the Dylan lovers out there; but it was Sophia's story I was most interested, not his.
Making Dylan a kind of 2nd main character was probably one of the smartest decisions L&P could have made. At least for me, the choices I can make for Dylan are much more in line with his character than the choices I can make for Sophia, who choices always feel kind of the exact opposite of what she would have normally done.
The more space L&P gives dylan, the more the story will win. There are plenty of side stories that could be deleted to make up for this.

With the exception of the side jobs, the side stories that can easily be deleted are Dylan stories. Dylan/Emma, Dylan/Amber, the bonus storyline, Bennett's blackmail.
Ellie, Sam and Patricia don't have side stories to delete. Only Dylan does.
We'd be at the end of the day and the "hot" events if we didn't have the bonus storyline, the Dylan/Amber event, and the visit to the salon.

Playing this game, and playing other games i started comparing them all with this one. I have to say that i am thankful because AWAM exists. It Is realistic pretty much, and gives me a lot of to think about and makes me exciting wile doing that. Only sorrow is that updates are really slow and short for my taste. Writer of story could sell this to some production later on. Think about that.

I think he cares about none payers opinions... He is an artist, that is the difference. This game is not jerk off, jerk on type.... Stimulation is fine to have it by paying, but I think that he cares a bit more about none payers opinion, they are more objective than other one. Pure liknes of game is what they have. More money they give, more sex they want in game. That's not the way artists do, just don't.
What the hell did I watch than back there....What do you mean? Dylan is there and still leading the way, with over 1400 votes total.

Anything that leads to more complications in the immediate surroundings of Sophia can ultimately make the story more interesting. The stories between Dylan/Amber (especially as a mirror to the story between Sophia/Sam) but also the story between Dylan/Ellie are perfect examples of this. L&P just has to have the courage to have these stories also affect Sophia at a later point in the game. For example, what is Sophia supposed to do when she finds out what's going on between Dylan and Amber while she herself is making out with Amber's son?
Also, don't forget that by letting the player act from Dylan's perspective, L&P can give the player information that Sophia doesn't have yet. As long as L&P don't overdo it (e.g. by introducing even more main characters) this can really have a great potential f or the story telling in the game. For me, the voyuer scenes are a good example for that, because they have to be told in Dylan view (because Sophia should certainly not know about it, at least in the beginning) and give great possibilities for complications, especially when you consider that Dylan might also catch Sophia in her voyeur actions.
No, what you can eliminate are all the stories that have little to do with the rest of the characters in the main story (especially the two side jobs). That's also why I think it's a shame that L&P didn't take the opportunity to have Dylan witness the event that happend between Sohia and Sam. This would have made the whole event with another insignificant side-charker in the salon unnecessary, but still give Dylan a reason to watch out more for Sophias actions.
I wish he did but over the years the evidence has shown that he does not care about non-paying fans. After all, why should he? Even Paying Patrons are lucky to have their questions answered & views heard, if they're very different from the Dev's. What he has done in line with Patron feedback, is to make Dylan the 2nd MC, (which to me suggests parity with Sophia) & now apparently the lead character. Patrons want Dylan & that's what he is slowly delivering.....a surfeit?....not if you're a Dylan fan. AWAM should be retitled, or perhaps also rebooted as a game with Dylan's adventures receiving laser-like focus & Sophia as part of the supporting cast. Then it might take less than 30+ years to complete.
That would certainly cure my own AWAM addiction.

Why Dylan though? There is the same potential for storytelling if there was a scene from Ellie's POV. Or Sam's, or Patricia's.

I know, there was already a poll about the favorite character, it' s like a waste of time this poll and the new haircut or fadeI am pretty sure people will appreciate more if he starts working on next update, instead of doing these things.
