Damn even Mr. Murray beats out Liam

The question now would be, what is his "Vision?" L&P's original plan was only three to four years for the novel, about three years ago. Now that his VN has grown in size, Did he stray from his original design? If you look at it now, Dylan is playing the role of a second main. Was that his original intent? No one knows for sure what his initial goal or plan was for the novel's first draft. So could we say he is abandoning his vision by rewritten and adding more content to the novel than initially planned based on public member feedback and his rewrites? Unless someone here saw his original outline or drafts, no one can know for sure.I don't think so, but maybe he can add a little more content for a character without 'betraying' his initial vision. It can result in a longer scene, or a secondary event / DLC
Everything is not set in stone either.
On several occasions, he indicated that he still had to work on certain important characters.
He withdrew Dylan's confession, but if he did, it shouldn't have changed much in the end, otherwise you know very well that he would have got a little angry by saying that it's important to keep it and only his opinion matters. whatever... the artist's choices are up to the artist. It's obvious but it must be remembered
In my humble point of view, he can do a few variations if he thinks it can be nice without moving the lines too much. The only thing I wish is that you had enough content with Alyssa, and farrah had enough content with Ellie
I would just like to see a more balanced approach to(character) events and not be so one sided.The question now would be, what is his "Vision?"

The one thing I would say is this. Suppose L&P is basing any of his thoughts on this poll and the previous one. In that case, Dylan and Ellie's content should be of similar size, and the pace should be somewhat identical, with Ellie a little bit ahead of Dylan in terms of progression and not where it is at now. Of course, I understand that Sophia and Ellie would be more comfortable about topics that she could have with Ellie versus having them with Dylan. But at the end of the day, Ellie is still Sophia's Daughter, which should fall into the same category as Sophia and Dylan. Which from a "Fictional Realism" standpoint, that would have made sense.
I've no access to the game right now, but haven't Andy and Cathy already asked Sophia and Liam to be their best man and bridesmaid in the beginning of the game (1st time we've seen Cathy)?When you meet old friends you haven't seen for a while, who are well into planning a wedding, and they invite you over because "there's something" they want to "talk with you guys about", it does seem more likely a conversation about the wedding then it does about rekindling old desires (whether acted upon or not).
L&P has proven to be unpredictable (if not always believable) so the conversation could end up being a confrontation about Liam and Andy's gay sex affair which erupts into a jealousy-inspired violent rage which ends in a double homicide (9" chef's knife, perhaps, broken wine bottle?) and Sophia and Cathy making love on the blood soaked kitchen floor.
I dunno... maybe?
I was about to communicate with L&P and talk to him about this... i talked to him in past about this but i guess i didn't made sense to him...You must be registered to see the links
Of course there will be teasers of futuer events. And after the next update I'll start a part 2 of the game. There you will be able to update every new event directly from the game menu. So, you'll get quicker updates
Maybe so, I don’t remember tbh. I’m seldom right about these things…I've no access to the game right now, but haven't Andy and Cathy already asked Sophia and Liam to be their best man and bridesmaid in the beginning of the game (1st time we've seen Cathy)?
l "So, what's the big news?"

an "Honey, do you want to tell them?"

l "And... how about bachelor and bachelorette parties?"
s "Liam! Do you really need to ask about those things first, you swine?"
cat "No, it's OK. Actually we've already talked about that and... we were both in agreement *heh-heh*!"
s "Oh my God, really?"
cat "Um, you didn't have one?"
s "There was something, but I guess it wasn't really what gals think of as a bachelorette party today!"
l "Really... and what DO gals think of as a bachelorette party today? *Grin*"
cat "Yeah, what do you mean?"
l "Yeah, tell her, darling *ha-ha*!"
s "Well, I don't think this is the right place to talk about such topics!"
cat "*Ha-ha* Yeah, I guess you're right!"
l "Well, all I can say is that I had a really great bachelor party with a really hot stripper! I think Andy remembers *ha-ha*!"
an "Oh yeah, I do, buddy!"
s "Interesting. You never mentioned a stripper!"
l "Really? Well... but didn't you have a stripper at your party?"
s "Um, not that I knew about, no!"
l "Oh. ... But, isn't that common?"
s "We'll talk about it some other time! (To Cathy) On to something more important: what about your wedding dress? Have you already chosen one?"
cat "No, not yet! I wanted to do that with you!"
s "That's great! I'm looking forward to it! (To Liam) Hey, isn't your new company also designing wedding dresses? Maybe there's a shop where you can get a discount?"
l "We do and I think I can arrange something!"
cat "Wow, really? That would be awesome!"
"They kept chatting about the wedding and other things."
No they only discussed bachelor/bachelorette party in general and then the wedding dress.I've no access to the game right now, but haven't Andy and Cathy already asked Sophia and Liam to be their best man and bridesmaid in the beginning of the game (1st time we've seen Cathy)?

I agree, there should be as much content with Ellie as with Dylan. But so far the situation is such that for one event with Ellie there are 10 with Dylan. It is not right. I want more events with Ellie and Sophia, and without Dylan. Dylan's content is already too much in the game.The one thing I would say is this. Suppose L&P is basing any of his thoughts on this poll and the previous one. In that case, Dylan and Ellie's content should be of similar size, and the pace should be somewhat identical, with Ellie a little bit ahead of Dylan in terms of progression and not where it is at now.
Considering he has 30 days to tell the story with apparently no more time-lapses, I doubt he could balance the novel with the "Baskin Robbins 31+ plus" character approach. Simply put, he would need more time. There is no doubt in my mind now that we will see plotholes, unbelievable, and unexplained events taking place.I would just like to see a more balanced approach to(character) events and not be so one sided.
The problem to have a mother of 38 with children around 18 is that she had them around 20, while in the middle of her studying with no job/income. Sure she can be helped by the parents, but having kids this young is generally for uneducated people, not for people like Sophia and Liam. And 1 error can happen (Ellie) but not a 2nd so quick after (Dylan). And even 20 years ago wasn't so different (unlike in the 50s for ex). In short that's the first point of unrealismYou won't imagine a 20 yr old couple just having a baby girl, no stable income, still too young for the responsibilities of a child and then getting on it again in 3 months and having Sophia pregnant again. A reasonable 6 months wait is pretty normal. Sophia's body will still be weak from child birth plus having to breastfeed Ellie.
So AWAM is great for a slow fap ?I enjoyed Anna Exciting Affection in the same way I would enjoy an 8 minute porn video.
Minimal set up and before you know the girl is having a dp with 2 strangers that she did nt know 5 minutes earlier.
Great for a quick fap!!
It's more like twice, not 10x.I agree, there should be as much content with Ellie as with Dylan. But so far the situation is such that for one event with Ellie there are 10 with Dylan. It is not right. I want more events with Ellie and Sophia, and without Dylan. Dylan's content is already too much in the game.
Sophia did get pregnant while at college(age 20-21) and married Liam and for Dylan who knows but would an educated person like Sophia allow herself to be blackmailed by Aiden and the antics of Bennett?The problem to have a mother of 38 with children around 18 is that she had them around 20, while in the middle of her studying with no job/income.

So a kinetic novel with all the different paths happening in the same timeline ?I think L&P might have better results if he intended to keep the novel load with characters, to put it in a comic format with multiple chapters or series. So he didn't have to worry about 900+ renders. Or possibly split the difference and keep the VN but limited to the names on the phone and use the comic approach for the others characters.
I think the reason for this is the rapid-fire progression that he put Ellie in right now. L&P did a good job telling Sophia/Ellie's story in a chronological sequence for their story, which flows very well, but I thought the rapid-fire progression was to keep in the pace of the 30-day time frame. I thought he would do the same with Sophia/Dylan because I wasn't sure if he would time-lapse the events at specific points in the novel. But now that L&P will no longer use time lapses, I fear he may already start down the path of the storyline being completely unbalanced.I agree, there should be as much content with Ellie as with Dylan. But so far the situation is such that for one event with Ellie there are 10 with Dylan. It is not right. I want more events with Ellie and Sophia, and without Dylan. Dylan's content is already too much in the game.
That could potentially work. But how much of a challenge would it be with the other stories in the novel? It's hard to judge without seeing the outline or draft of his story and how they are weaved in the story with the other paths.' There is no doubt in my mind now that we will see plotholes, unbelievable, and unexplained events taking place.' One solution would be for it to be more narrative in establishing situations. There are a lot of good movies where the movement of the cameras, a few well-thought-out dialogues allow you to set up an atmosphere, a situation. What do you think ?
Elly is at least 5 years ahead of Dylan,maybe even 10.The question now would be, what is his "Vision?" L&P's original plan was only three to four years for the novel, about three years ago.
