This is a waste of the developer time. It will be better released as the DLC later. These plots are not at all popular compares to with Sophia or Ellie (which only appears due to requests from fans)
I've been riding that train just about forever. I don't mind that Dylan has different story lines depending on what's going on with Sophia but the idea that his story needs to be told in detail, let alone told from his perspective, is exactly what you said: a waste of developer time.

The only Dylan storyline that doesn't involve Sophia which I won't ever complain about is with Ellie because, well, jeezuz, so much junk inside that trunk I don't think I'll ever get enough of it.

Poor Sam is the one who should be getting some action. He's completely forgotten and sympathetic, unlike Dylan.
What are you talking about. He is the third most popular character after Dylan And Ellie. There is no way he is forgotten.

From the past whole month all people are talking about is Sam. And for being sympathetic, that guy is just a weasel.

Because the Ellie/Sophia storyline (like any other lesbian story) comes from the heart of the dev and is written with a soul. LP really has a talent for such stories.
But Dylan's story seems to be being written for the fans, since it was originally planned with completely different content.
I miss Ellie:cry:

And that's a little unfair to the other storylines. But cash always wins.
I agree with you about the story written with a soul for Sophia/Ellie, but Sophia/Dylan written for the fans? Which fans because I would like to meet them... I'm a fan, and I can tell you that most of the plot with Sophia/Dylan angers me as some make no sense whatsoever, even from the fictional point. Like most people, I try to guess the upcoming plot based on what I know, but I'm not 100% correct.

So I would definitely like to hear from L&P and find out what examples the fans are sending him. I know the perverted, spying, begging, etc... is something I didn't want to see in the novel for the first 11 P.D.s only have him flip the switch on the 12th P.D. He was having a mature conversation with Sophia as Ellie has in the shower with Sophia. Plus, I thought he might use the "sneak eyes" training on Aiden since that was the catalyst that started the training but nope, that training was used on the drunk hobo to help facilitate the "cracking of the ice" for Sophia/Dylan through their "Sex-Ed" theme. As I said, that was a terrible scene using a cliché overused and trying to break the "Sex-Ed" barrier with that theme, which again was really bad to start with "Sex-Ed," IMO. It's as bad a starting Sophia of as a "Nun" like character from the start.

AWAM started, as all long-term players know, as an adult VN, with game style choices. It was something of a hybrid but none the worse for that, IMO, given the proliferation of juvenile "meetandfuck" fap material that had adult content, only in so far as the sheer amount of tedious, boring, meaningless sex they contained. These were the types of games where virtually every new character would have sex with the MC, quite soon after meeting up, where cocks looked like they'd been transplanted from purpose-bred horses & amazing anal sex didn't even require lubrication. They were obviously aimed squarely at young wankers & many were very successful. This is not an anti-youth point, because most of us were young wankers once.

AWAM was different, very different, with an interesting premise & a story. Indeed, it had several story-lines within one arc of progress. At that time, (ignoring everyone's varied tastes for the moment), the only real "fly in the ointment" was the designation of Sophia's initial persona as almost nun-like. This, to me, jarred with the realism that was been striven for & was often achieved.

Looking at AWAM now, I can't put my finger on exactly the PD, or moment, where it went wrong & I deliberately don't use the phrase, "ALL went wrong," because I think it's still possible to get it back on track. Every player will have their own ideas on this & for some, obviously, nothing is wrong at all. [I respect that but totally disagree]. What is the actual chance of a reboot of AWAM as an adult game for grown-ups? I look at Sophia in the romper at 38 years old, as it barely contains her cartoon-like proportions & I don't think the odds are favourable.

Might it be the case that the "adult" games world is solely for the young, based on demand, spending-power, free-time & the need to fap, plus the inevitable adoption of previously successful formulae by Devs having to make some money? I'm sure some younger folks want proper stories, or at least choice & variety. Is there a place for genuinely realistic erotic stories being told through the medium of good quality 3d renders? I certainly hope that there is.

I'm not angry. Just pointing out that for those that play the Dylan route, there was more than just Dylan groping Sophia in the park. There was also the Aiden event as well.
In terms of progress Ellie is way ahead of Dylan. So its fine to let Dylan have some fun too. But I think if we could trade the contents between Ellie and Dylan you will still be pissed about Dylan's progress. :LOL:

My point has nothing to do with the amount of progress Dylan has or hasn't made so far. My point was that a particular member of the thread was complaining that they only got a small amount of content in a particular update, when the amount of content they actually got was most, if not all of the update.

And far more than the member that had raised the issue of not being able to play the v.130 update at all.

There definitely are young guys and girls who would be interested in a realistic erotic story. I am one of them I could say.
I myself have come up with a few stories in which I believe sexual acts are believable, where sexual acts are not included just for fan service but can make sense. But I have no skills with Daz, hope to learn it next year then maybe I can try making something nice.

As for AWAM, some things indeed are a stretch to reality. A solo man working on this giant story, making hundreds of scenes is bound to go wrong, or run out of believable ways to continue a scenario eventually. Sometimes he needs a rational person to help him and suggest ideas. But then again it should be someone who himself is aware of what is realistic and what is just a normalised act in porn games which isn't realistic at all.

You realise that in the update after this one we probably will get more from both side jobs?
I can see him splitting day 13 like this.

0.165

Morning
1) Literature lesson (Aiden's 4th task) + a bonus scene
2) Don Morello (optional)
Noon
1) 2nd side job 3rd day

0.180

2) Dylan/Ellie OR: Dylan comes home from the boarding school for the weekend.
What will happen here depends on if the "pool chicken fight" on day 10 took place or not!
3) "Coach Sophia"
Afternoon
1) Sophia/Sam
2) Sophia/Claire/Marie (with Dylan)

0.200

Evening
1) Sophia/Dylan
2) Sophia/Dylan OR: Dylan/Ellie OR: Dylan/Emma

I believe that one good way to start rebooting AWAM would be the wrapping up of the two side-jobs. It would be worthwhile spending an update on this, if it meant that future updates came faster. Where the old men are concerned there are two possible rapid endings. Firstly, they could just get better & go home. If a less boring finale was preferred, Sophia could pose in the naughty nurse costume to 'boost their morale', only to be caught by her boss & asked to either resign or be sacked.

Where the home tutoring is concerned, the boys mother could walk in on Sophia's unorthodox, (to say the least), teaching methods & ask her to resign, or the boys could inadvertently tell Ava, with the same result.

Both the jobs could be brought to a rapid but logical conclusion. Alternatively, or alongside such events, Sophia could be required to work more hours at the school, which would be smooth & realistic. Again, she could be needed for the full-time role, in which case there would be no drama with the jobs, she'd just explain why she had to leave & she could still have worn the nurse outfit!
