OK, how do explain the recent slowdown - the quality seems to be similar? Animations? He should have learned tricks / processes that would make his rendering process faster, creative process faster that way he should at least keep up while quality is increasing.
waiting times will get longer and longer:

every time there is a new branch in the plot there will be more and more combinations.

L&P will always have to take into account the choices made by the players and make events happen based on the possible combinations.

Regarding the choice between "Showing breasts" or "getting groped", do you guys think this will play a different role in the future? They both give +2 filthy points so there really isn't that much of a choice, you go with what you like, but the actions are different. Being groped and showing breasts are not the same. One is a lot more physical than the other. So do you think in choosing one over the other could lead to different scenes in the future?
there may be something separating submission in the future or willingness to continue with homework

I agree with everything you wrote in your post. What was the need to do an episode like this? The only explanation I can come up with is to further lengthen the time to milk the patrons...
IMO, This was a continuation of the Dylan and Ellie event from this scene between the house and dinner event with Christine.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Since this was a 2.1 or 2.5 update, which had no plan for an update at all, This tells me he originally wanted this to be part of the release from Dylan and Ellie's event. Still, because of the animation debacle from update 1 (v0.155 and v0.160), he had to add it later because the animations were finished as he was working on v0.160. He had to release what he had because L&P was under pressure from his Patreon members. This is most like why we got this scene now.

It's not good.
It's not bad.

AWAM has simply jumped the shark.

Leaving the alley, either at the beginning or when given the GW choice, is the ONLY possible action that makes sense in this update.

But AWAM is now nothing more than a high quality porn game, so content wise there's no sense in playing anything other than the routes with the most content.

I'm not mad, because I don't care anymore.

However, I have to say that this is a GREAT facial expression.
I don't think that is true. My idea is that the author is trying to dedicate a single route to the impatient - people who care less about realism, like me. Aiden route might be the one we will see extramarital sex the soonest and this path might be the most unrealistic - as long as other paths are realistic this might be a saver.

I think is a good idea, however LP should not neglect other paths - then everyone will be happy.

I'm starting to find interesting all the Aiden-hate, since I don't hate him at all, in that in my playthrough he's a complete non-event - a simple school bully. Tries to blackmail Sophia, she says no, and he's practically never seen again. And even better, sending Dylan to boarding school still has the potential to have Ellie nude sunbathing in the backyard, which is more nudity than we've seen by accepting the tasks.

I am curious though whether the Morello route is going to mean a new set of renders in the classroom showing his injuries. Unless there's a different reason for Aiden being injured for those not playing the boarding school route. Maybe he just doesn't show up to class anymore. Not that it's going to matter until PD17, which is a number of years away at best.
perhaps the guy will go to home schooling or go to the hospital - it is possible.

what happens here depends on the previous choices, so there is a possibility that many do not see anything or am I wrong?
opinions?
ideas on what will happen?
development time estimates?
I think this update 0.161 and the next 0.165 should have been one single update since you get only one update with content from previous options

If sex is to be the last or near last task, then that isn't likely until around PD24 - 25, so apart from Dylan, would make Aiden one of the last to have sex with Sophia, and it's not even guaranteed he ever will. And considering events that late in the game are decades away are the current rate of update progress, we might not even get that far if the game is abandoned
I hope Aiden and Don Morello stories over immediately they are very disgusting
Probably wont have an event for another couple of years anyway, so practically the same.

My expectation of content for the update is at most a render of Dylan arriving home, another of Ellie grumbling, and if I'm lucky another of Sophia taking a break on the couch, or maybe getting a snack. So maybe 3 renders.

So another update not really worth caring about.

On the plus side, since it's not on the main Sophia/Dylan route, like the Dylan/Emma event before or the v.160 update, I'm hoping the update progress for the rest of the playable might go quickly, since L&P has shown he can do it.

I've always cared about realism in AWAM, not that it was realistic as such but that it was more believable & had elements of subtlety not found, (at least by me), in other games. What I was after when I started playing, nearly 5 years ago, was an erotic adult game, written by an adult for grown-ups. Yes, I wish there had been some extra-marital sex by now but the lack of it was never going to put me off. People are totally spoiled for choice in porn these days, EXCEPT when it comes to a well-written, genuinely erotic, quality rendered, 3D visual novel. This was AWAM until around 2 years ago IMO.

Making the Aiden path unrealistic but quicker, (n.b. next task due 2025....warp speed for L&P?), is not an idea that appeals to me. Why should the Aiden route be picked as the one to become quicker but sub-standard? What happened at the meeting gives weight to your theory, despite the glacial roll-out pace, as all pretence at realism went out of that particular route, for those not choosing the Mafia solution. As there's not going to be much for those playing the tasks to look forward to for a while, however, this tends to discount the theory. So, IMO, it's back to square one. There have been many changes to AWAM, most of them regrettable.

As for keeping everybody happy, although it's impossible, a good attempt would be to speed up the whole thing but that is not going to happen. There's only one guaranteed constant as long as the story lasts & that is slowness, which tends not to spread joy unconfined.
