Patricia can do what she wants as long as no penetration happensIf Carl finds out about Patricia & Sam he’ll be singing “Wanted, Dead or Alive”

Knowing Patricia, I think she'll do it even if he sings "Three Blind Mice..."Oh yes indeed, Sophia saying that if Sam play's anything from Bon Jovi on her birthday Patricia would show him her tits.
Knowing Patricia, she would actually do it.
Oh for burnout, I reached that point a long time ago ( not in game time, but in real time).Do I detect a note of cynicism? We all know what the Dev needs to do but over the years it's become tedious to discuss, or even list suggestions for how we think such things might be achieved. So, now we're looking at next year for the starting segment of a playable day & a likely continuation of one PD per annum. Those who've played the types of games found in this forum usually know about Dev burnout but what about fan burnout? After all, we've all got pressures, problems etc., for which these games are meant to provide some escapism....including not having to worry about production schedules & staffing issues. I had plenty of that when I was working.
On the positive side, I'm really looking forward to Aiden's 4th task. If it's only half as good as the 3rd one, it will be great. I'm also looking towards all the remaining Aiden-haters making use of whatever exit(s) is/are provided for that particular route. It seems that whatever people feel about it, we should all be happy....for a while...in theory.
To be fair, mostly people have spoken about L&P's perfectionism in respect to his rendering rather than his writing. He has spoken before in this thread about spending thirty minutes on a single render, about the same time he seemed happy that V0.130 update was near 1,000 renders.No problem with the renders .
My grip is mostly on the writting.
The guy is clearly not a writter .
There's some event that are really well told, others just awful, most of the time average.
It doesn't match the renders quality, it doesn't match the long wait between update, and it certainly doesn't match the expectation I had for an author that has been discribed as a perfectionist .
is moving!!!
It COULD be the game of the era if it's finished. That doesn't mean it will be flawless, it just means it could be the best of its era. If you watch classic movies, they often don't hold up great to great movies of today, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a great movie for its era. AWAM's biggest downfall is that it will never be finished. Content wise I think there's a lot of positive things to point at, but the painfully slow development cycle leads to a likelyhood that it'll never be finished. That's what will keep it from being an all-time great.When he is good, he's very, very good & when he is bad, he is horrid....to paraphrase a famous children's poem. Regarding fan burnout, there are only 3 or 4 games that I still bother with. I say 3 OR 4 because in one case we wait to see if it's going to be abandoned & in another I'm finding it impossible to download the latest update.
Writing isn't as easy as it sounds & I think we all accept that. AWAM is still a cut above most games, most of the time IMO & I havn't thought to delete it, unlike a lot of stories I used to follow, including anything that goes over 6 months before the next update. At one point I thought I must be jaded to find so much of what's currently on offer not entertaining but I realised it's mainly because it's just not immersive or engaging enough for someone who first read a porn story in 1965.
I've stayed with AWAM because I'm genuinely curious about what happens next & that must be a tribute the the VN in general, including the writing. Like you, however, I stopped believing this would be the great adult 3D erotic novel of the era some time ago.
I agree on your concept just in reverse. They are not making Casablanca, Wizard of Oz, Stalag 17, An Affair to Remember, Vertigo, One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest , or even a Christmas Story with awesome Ralphie (just to scratch the surface). They are using nice flares and explosions though and redoing every thing they can just ... worse! IMO of course.It COULD be the game of the era if it's finished.

Is it really moving..?
You're dreaming.Is it really moving..?
Or am i dreaming..?
Now for most games there is a torrent link almost immediately.You can download that way even 20GB games.When he is good, he's very, very good & when he is bad, he is horrid....to paraphrase a famous children's poem.

The wait for the update is not that short.Some people are believing we will get weekly or on 2 weeks update,but that won't happen.We will be lucky if we get an update on 4 weeks.And I mean 4 weeks counting both the time he is working and not working on the update.Anyone expecting PD 13 will done in something like 100-150 days must wake up.I don't think the split is causing such a problem. If anything it solves the issue of waiting for the event you want play at a very miniscule level. Like previously until the 5 events of the update were all complete we could play nothing. Suppose if this was the case for PD 12, someone just wants to play the Ellie Sophia scene which is the first scene, now once it's ready they get to play it. Instead of having to wait for all the other events of the update to he completed which they don't care about. It also makes people less impatient.
Like I'm sure most would remember, how back during v0.130 there were people who wanted the update to he released without the Dylan event itself. Now with this format, this is exactly what happens.
Also even if there are updates where a person doesn't get anything, the wait for the next update is short. On the grander scheme if there is a character who does not have an event anyways on the day, you would not get any content no matter the update format.

faster hahaha exactly the opposite will be the case.I don't think the split is causing such a problem.

I don't know anyone who expected an update in 2 weeks. Whoever was expecting that was definitely living in a fantasy. Only the update format has changed not the no. Of developers or his speed.The wait for the update is not that short.Some people are believing we will get weekly or on 2 weeks update,but that won't happen.We will be lucky if we get an update on 4 weeks.And I mean 4 weeks counting both the time he is working and not working on the update.Anyone expecting PD 13 will done in something like 100-150 days must wake up.
And I am really sorry for the people who were waiting for the content that was shut down and converted to DLC.
DLC that we probably will never see.Unless he do it way before the end of the game.Which will make no sense.
After all he decide to add DLC in order to make that content much later,after the game is completed.
I wasn't even talking about speed in that post. I just said that we will get to see events a little earlier as we don't have to wait for all the events to be completed first.faster hahaha exactly the opposite will be the case.
Who?OFF topic: Verstappen is the new F1 world champion!![]()
what was a cheat?A cheat.
