514 renders spread over 5 events (and some small ones) + 10 animations (24 fps) + 4 animations (10 fps)
Important: This update will be the beginning of Part 2 of the game. You will need the remade 1st Part or a patch which will be much smaller 4 you to download! Cause at the very end of Part 2 the game will ask you now to save. This save file will be important for Part 2!
Finally some good news, after all this time, we will see Dylan touching the fabric of Ellie's underwear, I don't expect anything else, I've learned to keep expectations low.

Jokes aside it's a good thing that the wait is over.

Are there now a few disappointed faces because the forecasts of the crystal ball of some people here in the forum for release in May or June have not come true.
Sorry, I just had to write that.
There is proverb: "Do not divide the bear´s pelt until the hunt was successful" and if one wanted to be a pea counter, you could say that the update coming mid-April is in the probability error margin for May prediction.;) But in the end, most of the fanbase will just be happy that FINALLY the update comes. And we have to thank the major patrons for it, because we can rest assured that without them finally getting pissed off with the glacial development speed, nothing would have happened to speed up!

It is quite telling how quick L&P can work these last weeks, if money is on the line, what makes him get a move on. That is the one language he understands!
But enough of that for now, going over to the update. Despite some specialists claims to the contrary, I like AWAM, I just dislike it´s creator, which is not a contradiction! I definitely hope for those who will be playing the update that it is good. Because this update might be a make or break one. L&P burned a lot of his remaining goodwill in the last months, which he can partly reclaim with a good update! I have zero expactations for the hyped animations, which are completely superfluous, esp. with them being about third-rate characters no one needed or misses.
But if the story events are good and move the storyline forward that would be great! One thing which would be good, is Dylan gaining more relationship points with Christine, they would be a nice pairing. And it will be interesting how the relationship with Logan is "rescued", since him and his Buddies are needed for Ellie´s "big day" and the triple date of Sophia, Pat and Ellie with them.(At least on some paths)

also how much renders does L&P does per update in average?
Previous update had like ~850 renders and took pretty much the same amount of time.

Also, I might be wrong, but the amount of animations wasn't supposed to be 14 in total. L&P was previously talking about 4 animations in one of his Patreon posts. I guess it's nice to have more than that, but at what cost? I feel like he should've updated his initial statement and inform his patrons that there's gonna be three times as many animations in the making, if that's really the case (maybe he did and I missed it, who knows). There's also still the possibility that it's just different camera angles, which I wouldn't say counts as an extra animation as it "only" requires to adjust the camera angle in an already existing scene in Blender, and then render it again. Which obviously does add more time to the clock, but it's not like an entirely new animation. But I guess we'll see soon enough.

One thing is certain, though. This update is gonna be a real short ride with only 514 renders.

Glad the update is finally coming but wow 514 renders over 5 events. Can’t help but expect a let down at this point. This update would have to be action packed from beginning to end. Even his most devote followers were expecting 600 renders. This reads like trouble.

145 Days for 514 renders is the slowest he has ever been.
That's 3.54 renders per day.
The slowest update before this one was v0.115 with 4.24 renders per day and his fastest was v0.03 with 9.73 renders per day.
