I agree with you that the story of the game has moved on to the next branch.On the basis of the classic three-act structure, which I simply assume, AWAM is now clearly in the second act (development). Here, in my opinion, we are still at the very beginning and it will be some time before the story really comes to an end (solution or disaster of the story). However, it should be clear to everyone here that L&P spent a lot of time on the exposition of the characters and the basic stettings. I think there is little to discuss here and if you have a problem with the time investment, then you are certainly not alone, because I also think that L&P is bad at project management.
Where do you see a change in AWAM setting?!? The point I was trying to make is that in a good story, the characters going through changes based on the story ( beased on the challenges that have to be overcome in the story). For Sophia, this certainly includes her curruption. But all this is part of the story and not a change of setting. Sorry, either I have completely misunderstood you or you are talking nonsense.
But, the period was too long. (more than 6 years)
He also abruptly put Sofia's past in because he felt limited in advancing the story. (my feel)
As a result, Sophia, who had been "the daughter of a wealthy, conservative scholarly family living in a small town," became a poor, impulsive, promiscuous woman.
This is a setting change.
Dylan went from a kid who couldn't fight but was just, to a kid who was good at fighting but cheated on his mother.
Also, he was a naive kid who had difficulty approaching girls, but he changed into a kid who receives interest from various girls and knows the nightlife.
This is also a setting change.
This isn't growth, it's discarding the initial settings.
Six years is the period in which a drama can come out until season 3 or 4.
This game is old enough that the developer wanted to change the start date of the game from 2017 to 2020.
This developer should have started years ago with whatever he was going to do, including changing the settings.
