Except that it's not what most of his patrons want. The prepubescent kiddies only got about 200 votes last poll. Out of 1500 odd patrons.

Yes... that is true as any statement about the game there is...
However I think L&P has a problem that is structural and tactical with the game. I'm not saying L&P is "milking" the game and drawing it out, but what I saying is if L&P starts closing the circles of the various relationships, L&P can't figure out "the what next" moments and plots.
Take two examples:
Even though it will be another year to see 'Tyler' again and L&P closes the circle and Sophia cheats {personally that is two years down the road based on how L&P works}, I don't think L&P knows where to take the story after that. And yet it is so easy to turn the story from sex, cheating, and excitement, to one of inner struggle and regret with the physical and emotional desire for the relationship to continue despite all complications... if anything it sets up 2 or more updates of sex, bonding, and complications and STILL LEAVES OPEN an ending way down the road allowing the other paths to unfold.
What? We get to suffer two, three more updates before the story gets back to Dylan? Never mind. Anyhow if in the next Dylan update L&P closes the circle (which how the storyline is currently written would be a disaster), there still leaves a guilty and shocked Sophia to deal and overcome the consequences as the story unfolds of Dylan attempting to do it again and a Sophia struggling with herself of letting it happen again and getting more and more corrupted till she totally surrenders to it. That is like four updates and pushes out the game three years before the endings of the other paths have their endings.
Now some of the paths can't be interconnected just because of how ill thought out some are, so it's a game of alternative universes. But some can be linked. It wouldn't make sense to link Tyler/Dyaln together of them to splitting time with Sophia. Now that L&P plans to push Sam off on Ellie, that would have made a link of the Sam/Dylan path possible.
Thing is, L&P hasn't totally screwed up the game yet but as it is its heading for a trainwreck. So L&P really should listen to the players and supporters. I know there are Sam fans out there... I doubt they are going to like it if L&P does do as he has said and move Sam off Sophia and onto Ellie. Any other major turning points with various other fan favorites is going to cost L&P.
While some are eager for the tutoring release and I wager a few for the old folks, I'll revisit the game in about a year when it moves past that nonsense
