... What if someone isn't playing Sophia/Sam's story? You couldn't incorporate that breaking point from Sam's time with Sophia's as you wouldn't see it because it's not part of the readers' storyline if they didn't pick it ...

Also a very good point.

She would either need to have multiple different Breaking Points, or a Breaking Point that is separate of any optional partner.

I would like to take this opportunity to re-pitch a theory I posted like two years ago.

Spoiler: My Theory

Also you just made me realize, there may be a decent number of sex scenes down the line with optional if/or dialogue flags where Sophia says "Oh god, can't believe I'm officially cheating on my husband by having sex with [character]"
Sure there's ways to streamline the dialogue so Sophia isn't going into a full-blown monologue of what she's about to do - but I think a lot of us are looking forward to that moment of her not only doing the deed, but reflecting on what her life has come to.

There is a reason why the market is the way that it is.

Mr Dots the creator(s) of DMD is also the creator of Melody (completed), and Sunshine Love (WIP). It's questionable to claim that DMD is less popular than AWAM. Both are really big popular games.
AWAM = More comments 2623 pages vs 2094
DMD = More 1st post likes 2926 vs 2162
AWAM = More Reviews 258 vs 218
DMD = Higher Average Review 4 & change vs 3 & change

I like both games, and both are popular, but I think DMD is slightly more popular, but it's debatable.

Decent Monkey is one of the hardest working devs I have ever seen. They release so many renders and so frequently compared to most other devs. They earn it. Unique story too, and massive amount of animations.

Comparing almost any dev to Dr Pink Cake... Come on guy. Being a Dik is arguably the most popular adult game. I love AWAM, but it's not at the same level as Being a Dik in execution, and that's just a fact. AWAM is 720 being a Dik is 1080 for starters. Then there is massive amounts of sex in that game, and it's coded like a boss. It's like all around golden game. That level of production is nuts. If you want to compare someone to Dr Pink Cake leave L&P alone that just aint fair go with like Phillygames with his City of Broken Dreamers and Depraved Awakening or maybe CheekyGimp with Where the Heart is instead when comparing the big boys that's a more fair match up.

All those devs you just listed all work hard for it, and none of them are milkers.

Even L&P Isn't a milker. In spite of it being slow burn he still makes releases. In spite of it being blue ball. A release is a release the story continues. Maybe it's not progressing as fast as many want, but that's his style and that's his audience. He is shooting for more "Erotic" than "Pornographic".

If you want to know why L&P isn't stacking money to the ceiling as good as some of the other devs mentioned. I'll make a list of things L&P could do to get that cash flow up:

1) A lot of them games don't do it, but coming to the forums more often to drop a line and let people know your active and not have people debating this or that. If he came out to the forums and dropped a line a little more often that would help him grow a little better. I don't think L&P has a discord server or an Instagram or twitter or anything.

2) He kinda should switch from 720 to 1080p. A lot of people want HD, but at the same time that would take too long, and you don't want half the game in one resolution and the other half in another.

3) Animations: AWAM seems pretty light on animations. I think Neil boning his wife Amber was the only animation, and it was only 1 animation. At Damaged Goods we already have 18 animations, and there will be 8 more soon we came out on X-mas. People want animations.

4) The code needs a little bit of work for player convenience. A jump to day, or gallery mode option would be a big plus.

5) The game has been around for 3.5 years. It's a big game, and it's got a big fan base and has had a fair number of releases. There have been 17 or so releases now. (I have played every single one since RPGM days) So it's established, and not just established but well established. That being said Sophia the female protagonist has not even gone so far as to give a handjob to a man other than her husband. Not even a little quick tuggy tug. That is probably the slowest pace of any game I have ever seen. Even Jessica O'neil from JOHN is out pacing her. Ultimately when Sophia does fuck around it is a double edged sword. At some point in the future when Sophia does shift over from prude to lewd... Well, that's a big change. Some supporters will be upset that the blue balling comes to an end and leave, but other new ones may take there place and old ones may return. There is no real case study comparison of what happens when you do the blue ball thing so long as sophia then get out of it.

If you want me to point my finger and say "Milker"... There is only really one developer I can think of off the top of my head that fits that bill perfectly. The reason gumdrop is a milker is he missed 6 self imposed deadlines over a couple of year span releasing nothing, and then releases a "prologue" of his "remake" that is just a piano simulator.

Not making releases and breaking promises = Milking

Slow burning =/= Milking

Slow burning can actually cost a developer money if they do it too much.

Hi, I would like to make a few comments regarding your review. I am not a DMD fun probably because I do not like the father /daughter theme but I gave a look in the past and IMO has lower quality than the other mentioned games. I believe DIK targets younger people and its plot is a little immature and not very exciting. Phillygames are real professionals and City of Broken Dreamers is a mature game reaching perfection. AWAM IMO is a milking game because there is deliberate delay in its plot development and without any sex scenes. It should have more frequent updates as there are no animations. Jessica O Neil is something similar but at least with perfect renders and a few sex scenes.

 

[nexer]

On the Day13 we do not have Sophia/Ellie, but we do have more Sophia/Dylan.
It would be logical to think that something more intimate between Sophia and Ellie is not possible before Dylan looks at or touches a naked Sophia.
So I see an event, on day12 or day13, more likely 13, where Sophia will be naked or topless with Dylan.
It could happen on day 13, after the Sophia/Claire/Marie (with Dylan) event.
Now, sex between them at the end of the game would lead to push the intimate scenes between Sophia and Ellie to the end as well.
Moreover, we have a Dylan_cockold, that IMO, has to come after a certain degree of intimacy between them. Certain touches or situations are possible before, but not sexual things. It would be possible only in the case that Dylan would be a young man with a certain degree of handicap, or Dylan catches Sophia with someone and stares at her without her knowing it.
It will be interesting to see if the apostles or Sophia will use Dylan as an example or make some references.
Being so isolated, the apostles may react very strongly to certain stimuli, which will lead Sophia to think that a good sex-education is necessary, including her son.
Or, will L&P connect Nursing event with Mr. Murray?

Correct. There would be multiple breaking points or one breaking point in which all story plots converged on one particular scene with Sophia at a breaking point then branch back out again. Also, someone shared their thoughts with me on a plot, indicating that Sophia may be going full circle here with the filthy path. She starts as a prude person, and then corruption happens due to choices, followed by cheating and an affair based on the thought of the other cheating (Liam), which leads to the truth (no cheating at all by Liam) and remorse.

To me, I hope that is not the case on the filthy route, but who knows.

 

[Hornyman2]

how much idle talk

 

[nexer]

What we are going to have for sure in both sidejobs are erect penises
With the geezers it's one thing, but it will be interesting with the apostles.
Imagine the scene, the three of them erect, scared, and Sophia also thinking about how their mother, Ava Myers, is going to react. Let's not forget, it's going to be Sophia's fault, for insisting on sex-ed. And the three boys playing with their toys.
Is Sophia going to try to "calm the situation down" a bit?

The drug lord Penelope lived in hot Colombia. She had a girlfriend - Maria. Their romance was beautiful, perfect. Lots of passion, affection and tender words. But one day, Maria cheated on Penelope with a man and she found out, shot Maria with the words: you killed me with treason, I will kill you with a shot! - Who will mourn you? - Only my guitar!

Here is a clip on this topic, take a look:

I wrote this post not only for the fact that you watched the clip, but to say that AWAM is not enough passion, emotions. The game's potential is really huge, but L&P lacks a bit of writing experience or talent, I think.
What do you think about this?

The game lacks a little bit, but I don't know what to say about L&P. If English was his language, I would agree, but it is possible that he loses something with the translation.

Lust said that there were going to be 2 big steps forward in terms of Sophia's corruption, the first on day 13 and the second on day 16. I'm not sure if he actually stated what they were as that would be a pretty big spoiler and he doesn't seem to like doing major spoilers

I believe there is a 2nd side job on day 13, so that fits with my thinking/theory/prediction that the next update with homeschooling being a big step forward to Sophia finally going all-in with someone not named Liam.

I'll split a hair with you. You seem to feel that Sophia is at the beginning of the end phase, that she's close to going "all-in with someone not named Liam". Instead, I think she's at the end of the beginning. This is slightly different from you because I don't think she's thinking YET about cheating on Liam. I think as of the end of the jailhouse scene, she's just feeling a little frisky but hasn't crossed that line yet. I think as we finish playable day 12 in the next update, it will mark a delineation point where the corruption of Sophia begins to take hold. Prior to playable day 12, I don't think she showed too many signs of corruption; but by the end of playable day 12 the corruption is definitely beginning to show. In the coming days the idea of cheating on Liam is going to enter her mind, I predict by playable day 14 or 15. Once it does, that will mark the beginning of the end.

The "end" won't be playable day 19 when she finally cheats on Liam, it's going to be whenever the player has the choice to really double down on the corruption. I think L&P will give Sophia opportunities to redeem herself after she cheats. But whenever the player makes the choice to fully pursue the filthy path, that's when we can say "it's over".

Well for the most part you pretty much saying what I said, accept you think Sophia hasn't been corrupted yet, showing her boobs to anyone not named Liam is Sophia being corrupted, so she has already been corrupted and been corrupted quite a few times, she just hasn't gone all the way with someone not named Liam yet. I'm saying she is close to doing so and I think the homeschooling event is a big trigger event for that finally happening.

However, we do seem to agree that she is close to going much further. I also know why you call it the beginning of the end as you think when Sophia crosses that line it's the beginning of the end of AWAM. Remember a post in past, pretty sure it was you that said that.

With this picture I would just assume that the kids were enthusiastic about Sophia.
And that with their enthusiasm they gave Ava the security that they made the right
decision with Sophia. And that Sophia is amazed and happy about it. Not more.

Why should the boys blackmail Sophia? For sex that the boys have no idea about?
I don't think there will be any physical action between the boys and Sophia.
But we have a similar situation here as in prison. Sophia controls the situation, intellectually, emotionally and physically.
I also expect bare skin at this event. Sophia will enjoy it and at the same time be ashamed of it. Nevertheless she will continue she has an educational mandate!
And I think a masurbation scene awaits us. Not this time, but at the next homeschooling event.
And let's face it, worse could happen to the boys.

You might be right, maybe there just hitting it off because Ava is happy her sons like Sophia, maybe there is a masturbation scene, which would still be a big scene that sends Sophia to the point she willing to go further with one of the many people in her life.

I think 2022 is shaping up to be a super interesting year in AWAM and if not, then I will be a little disappointed.

 

[farrah]

Yeah, it can't be Allyssa. As hot as she is, too many players have ended their relationship with her. It's going to be one of the other girls. Ellie would make the most sense, but I think the incest element will hold Sophia back for now. Patricia would have the same problem, but I don't think it bothers her as much with Patricia.

Sophia discovers her bisexuality now, and she much more open to girls. And she is more open with Ellie and Patricia. So everything moves much well and faster with Ellie than with Dylan. Ellie's storyline is now most worked out. But their events are rare, this is probably the only drawback.

I was (and still am) so much in agreement with you that I even suggested a possible scenario for your hypothesis.

The fact that L&P has firmly stated that Liam will not cheat on Sophia does not necessarily mean that she cannot suspect that he is cheating on her. To better explain I will refer to one of the most talked about cases of misunderstood pictures that, about 10 years ago, involved two famous football players: ​ As you can see not always (or almost never) "What you see is what you get" and if often, when you watch a movie, you can misunderstand the whole plot if you miss a scene or a dialogue, even more often you can misunderstand it if you only refer to its trailer. So imagine this hypothetical situation with me: Sophia decides to pay a surprise visit to Liam in his office (as she did on Day 3) and arrives at the reception of the Amadia building just as Mr. Harris (Liam's boss) is busy reprimanding Emily (who is being tutored by Liam) for her lack of commitment during her internship. Mr Harris is not only Emily's boss, he is also her father and, as such, wants the lesson to be clear, so what would be a simple reminder to anyone else becomes a real scolding for her. The situation transcends and Emily runs away in tears from Mr. Harris' office. Outside the office is Liam who, also summoned to Mr Harris' office to be reminded of his duties as tutor, sees in tears what could be his daughter Ellie and, trying to console her, embraces her and caresses her face. At that very moment the lift doors open and Sophia sees Emily, now smiling again, in her husband's arms in a "far from professional" attitude. Liam is called to enter Mr. Harris' office and the two of them separate, while Sophia (not seen by the two of them), after saying goodbye to secretary Scarlett, waits for her husband to leave Mr. Harris' office. While Sophia reflects on what she has just seen, the player is offered a choice: "Keep waiting until Liam leaves (Good Wife)" or "Leave (Filthy)". In the first option, the issue would immediately be explained without further speculation and resentment and the player could continue his game on the Good Wife route. In the second case, instead, Sophia might start listening to that inner voice that makes her suspect that her husband might cheat on her with another woman (already heard on Day 3) and think that she too can repay him with the same coin. View attachment 822670 I know that my description of this situation is most probably just a conjecture, a suggestion, a fantasy (on the other hand this is what we do here), but I think that it could be a plausible turning point with Sophia's character described so far by the developer: a wife and mother who, as such, would hardly cheat on her husband if, in turn, she did not suspect that she had been cheated on.

I've never heard of a lesbian affair on playable day 16, so this is news to me. Where did you see this?

Well I was trying to search those info in the thread and there are several posts suggesting that but then it's really hard to pinpoint the origin of the information or find someone disproving that. For example this post (among many others)
https://f95zone.to/threads/a-wife-and-mother-v0-115-lust-passion.5944/post-3083843 (1 year old, so... cum grano salis)

2) Sophia/Claire/Marie (with Dylan)
Evening
1) Sophia/Dylan
2) Sophia/Dylan OR: Dylan/Ellie OR: Dylan/Emma

Feel free to complete

Thanks a lot!!!
We should have a page where we gather all this info once for all and let the thread for the speculations! Maybe a wiki
The evening with Sam is really with just him? I mean is it something that the dev said? As, if I get it right, that is the concert and Sophia has invited Ellie and Patricia I think. Unless he meant they will have a solo moment at some point...

Lust said that there were going to be 2 big steps forward in terms of Sophia's corruption, the first on day 13 and the second on day 16. I'm not sure if he actually stated what they were as that would be a pretty big spoiler and he doesn't seem to like doing major spoilers

I guess you are talking about playable days.
Ok this is another new information (to me at least) which is similar in spirit to what I found quickly browsing through the thousands of messages. But this seems to happen 3 (playable) days earlier. Can I ask you when did he say it? Is it some "recent" posts on patreon? Thanks!
