Two steps forward - one step back.
Although I ain't the biggest Sammy fan, but 0.180 feels like a filler after 0.175. This VN is called AWAM, not "A son and a brother". I totally get it, Dylan is the most popular character in the polls, yet Ellie was right behind him with a margin of 4-5%. So why on Earth it has become that laser focused on the Parker's youngest?
The story progress is tedious. It seems like L&P is simply afraid of moving to the "really hawt stuff" as it may not meet fans expectations. Thus we're limping around same ol' checkboxes: staring, kissing, kneading, stroking ... And don't get me started on the mini-game, that crap is completely atrocious.
Plus that new male character shatters such a potential great scene with two milfs. Clearly, he's there for a "Dylan cuck path", feels totally out of place. Could've been done so much better with Parkers and Claire alone, with all those awkward glances, insinuations. Sophia/Dylan seduction path could've started for real right there, with Claire actively flirting with both of them and more intense continuation back at home during evening parts 1&2. Such a shame. I wonder what are the highlights of 0.185 + 0.190 are gonna be - a passionate french kiss for P1 and playing with mommy's boobies or God forbid me for that fantasy even sucking her nipples by the end of P2?
Four updates before the next PD. It may take up to a year with those planned animations. Idk what has happened with the intention, at least on paper, to speed up game releases. I guess, it got thrown out of the window.
This VN has an unimaginable potential, our talented fan artists prove that on a daily basis. I get it that not every update can be as good as the previous one or like Dylan/Amber side story. I dig his stance on AWAM being more than your typical porn-alike VN. However, 290+ renders and this is the final result? Well, sweet life among cows in Alps won't pay itself, thus switching from euros to GBP and elongating development process seems like a reasonable step.
