Someone talented should just fork this game, could even reuse some of the official renders and just make an alternative timeline that spice things up a little. Easier way to make money than starting your own game from scratch if you ask me. For example, Pixil's fan game was really good in terms of render quality but he completely abandoned the story and just went straight to the fucking. Just branch off the story a little, don't go completely in the opposite direction by making the characters do uncharacteristic things.

He needs to learn how to tie his shoe laces properly :KEK: then we can talk about making games.

Most people think that this is easy, like you said with all the tutorials out there of course you can do it, but it will suck, no matter how hard you try. Because you need experience and TIME to make a game look and feel good
You should know that this developer was still learning Daz while making this game.
Including what he asks and learns from people on this site and this forum.

Some one can make something, like this developer if they do it like this developer.
He is not Zeus.

While others ran casinos or became teachers, Liam learned architectural design. That's all.

Not everyone needs to be a baker to taste and appreciate bread.




I am not dismissing game designers or game developers.

I mean to say that just as being a game developer is a valuable profession, someone shouldn't criticize others for cannot doing game development, because they're engaged in other worthwhile work.

I don't remember why I felt this way, but a long time ago I felt like Dylan and Liam were the same person.

If you play the game, you'll see that Liam in the past was either more proactive or more passive than he is now, and so was Sofia, but now everything has changed. (It became normal)

As for Part 1, Liam and Dylan were similar in many ways.
Sophia and Ellie also were similar in some ways (at the time), but Liam and Dylan were more so.


I remembered.
It was because of the way they spoke, their hostility toward each other, their tastes, their hobbies, etc.

Hello guys, need your opinion!
We all know that the main problem of the game is a huge amount of renders per each event, because of that one update with one event takes about 4 months to produce.
So I decided to make an experiment. I've downloaded CGs from the last 0.190 update, reduced the amount of images from 414 to 160 and uploaded on Mega: Mega
So I need your opinion. Which is better: 414 images that took 4 months to produce, or 160 images which could be possibly rendered only in 1,5 months?
Put (y) if you'd choose 160 images version with only 1,5 months of development!
Put :ROFLMAO: if you prefer 414 images version with 4 months of development!
Put :love: if you want to see even smaller amount of renders to make updates even faster!
The problem is not with rendering, but rather the slow progression of the plot :FacePalm:

After casino shower sex with Liam was PD11 (i.e. seven days after). So Dylan has to wait till PD20 to have sex (in the shower…)!!!

Sadly, someone calculated (predicted) the day and it is PD 27 (in game day 32).

I'm thinking the day will be similar, if not exact.

And let me one more thing: Sam's day, which I like, is more later than Dylan's day.

Super hot update, Sophia/Dylan content is the best! Don't listen to the haters.

Some serious progress has been made between them in these last 2 updates, can't wait for more. (y)

Out of curiousity is there any path where Sophia would have danced with the two guys coming up to her at the club despite being there with Dylan?

First you just need few minutes, maybe seconds to reach the end of AWAM2 from the beginning with Ctrl.
Second, you can right-click the Skip button in the quick menu at the bottom of the screen to jump from choice to choice.
Third, you can just look at the scene in the gallery if you don't bother playing at all (unlockable thx to the padlock in the top right corner).

I've personally identified almost all of the assets used in the game. Sadly, not many of the fan artists in the fan art thread seem interested in making something that fits into the main game.

Liam was initially designed as the 2nd MC. But that was dropped, probably because no-one cared about the husband in a game with a MILF MC.

So with Dylan now as the 2nd MC, that may be why you're seeing similarities.

I believe Dylan's chance is now at PD24. It's Sam's chance that is PD27. Which makes no sense, that's just what I hear.

I think so as well. But from the pricing I looked, one month of 10 hours per day would be like 1000 dollars. That's not that much. Considering how powerful those computers are I think he could render a whole update in a month, month and a half at most. If we consider he could render at night on his computer as well, in parallel with the render farms...

Would really love to know if anyone asked him about render farms.
Render farms ? what for ? for rendering images ? have you even tried it ?

Rendering is not the issue we are not talking about rendering a movie like avatar or something, these are stills and with his setup. It takes literally seconds or a couple of minutes if it is a challenging one ( a lot of reflections or low lighting ).

Daz has no industry standards at all, you can't export scenes and reimport them, you can't share assets, it is a program for amateurs and that's why pros don't use it. Because it is not practical. So technically it is not usable with a render farm unless you copy the entire library of assets on that specific render farm.

And this right here (y) makes it also harder to work as a team, because you would need a cloud storage, so every member of the team can access the assets. And it better be a good cloud. One that can handle multiple sources of truth, and also concurrency ( not cheap )

In my field, we use softwares that are built for sharing files, we can share assets and scenes easily by exporting them with a few clicks ( openusd, alembic ) and this is just not happening with daz.

So no render farms are not for people like him. In order to hire a team, you need a good business plan, and this guy strikes me as someone who has no idea what he is doing.

He just made a game that became popular and now he doesn't know what to do with it. So you should temper your expectations. And to be fair, it is his game, his project, and he does whatever the F he wants with it.

Patreon is a crowdfunding platform not an investor platform, if you like what he does, good, you can support him. You don't, you can see yourself out.

You need funding to work on a game that big, and even if you identified all of the assets, you can't really copy someone else's style, this is just not interesting for a good artist, he better be doing his own game. I ve seen some renders in the fan art, some are good, a lot of them are straight up bad, but to be honest, no one is at L&P's level
