As always after an update of "AWAM" the wires are glowing and comments rushing in. Some good, some bad, some toxic, some praise. Here is my "review" of the new update:
First the positives
The Art is great! Lovely renders with attention to detail and you can see the evolution of L&Ps style over time. For an erotic game the story is really nice. It is good that the storyline is already baked, will give more coherence. I have zero problems with the slow corruption of Sophia (and friends), I like this slow burn (storywise only!) and the lesbian content in this update was nice. Not my top favourite stuff, but nice nevertheless. Generell gute Arbeit an sich. (Since L&P is German he´ll understand it)
Now the negatives
Update intervalls in comparison with update size are beyond terrible. Unterirdisch und geht garnicht! I am a hobby writer myself and have currently 4 ongoing stories out, these are all free. A combination of factors cut deeply into my writing time since about two years, even during Corona lockdown I could not write much. It hurts to tell your readers that update intervalls might go towards half a year or longer, but they get it for free at least and I do it as a hobby, I have to work. My readers understand this, they might not like it (I don´t either), but they know they will get new stuff eventually and free.
L&P makes money with his game, that is totally ok and good, but then you cannot have intervalls that will lead to the conclusion of the game in a decade or so, while getting money every month. That is something that does not fly in the long run.
Getting a hissy fit about posted teaser pics, which by the way were so harmless they made German afternoon television look like porn in comparison is a joke! Especially if you have an abyssal update interval! Ein Witz und ein relativ schlechter obendrein. We have devs on F95 posting highgrade, high-quality teaser pics themselves or making them available on their website for free.
One point specific to this update is the unneeded choice of going with Alyssa or Sis. Keeping these events a "big lesbian block"(or not for those averse to it for Sophia) by scheduling them each after the other over the day would have helped with story development and workload. This branching with following storylines add work and rendering to coming updates which could have been avoided without compromising the main story.
