Right now some scenes are same for good wife route and filthy route, but If she got pregnant that time in the office this might not be the case.L&P will have to make some future scenes as pregnant Sofia(you know with a baby bump and appropriate clothing) and non pregnant Sofia. This will further slowdown the progress of story/updates. So please Sofia do not get pregnant this much early in the game :HideThePain:
Better still, Sophia, don't get pregnant at all. [We don't need the extra stress, nor do you & as Punctured Lemon rightly states...the slowdown. Bloody hell the potential for grinding to a complete halt looms]. All this pregnancy stuff dotted around the gaming world is yet another underage youth fantasy IMO. It's most likely popular with & propagated by men & boys who've never made a woman pregnant. Wait until you do & see how sexy you think it all is. I guarantee your viewpoint will change & that you'll grow up faster. It's wonderful, miraculous & life-changing but it's not erotic.

It would certainly detract from the veneer of mild eroticism, that, despite everything, AWAM still has.

This is not to ridicule someone else's fantasy but to point up a fact. Dealing with a successful pregnancy does not include eroticism. It's a practical caring, sharing, learning experience.

Considering last I checked it takes about a month for a pregnant woman to start to show, Sophia could get pregnant now and there would be no need to make additional renders until playable day 30. Sophia might not even know she's pregnant for at least a week.

But her and Liam having another child to me sounds endgame. So I'm thinking if she does get pregnant, it might only be around playable day 22.

Meanwhile, if there is a massage scene in the Dylan/Sophia event, it appears L&P is vaguely following the corruption route used in Big Brother. Which makes me curious, who would be Eric in this game?

Check again. Pregnancy doesn’t really start to show until end of first trimester. And it’s almost impossible for anyone to know after a week, not even the best blood tests would be reliable after just one week. A late period would only be a telltale sign if the woman was very very regular with her cycle, which isn’t a given without hormonal contraception.

Crap, I need to get Sophia to a Doctor right away. I wonder if twins run in her family?

Yeah, that sounds right. That there would be no need for extra renders given the timeframe of the game was really all I was getting at, even with my details being off. And even given your information, that shifts the possible date of conception even closer, so whether or not Liam wears a condom from now on is largely irrelevant.

Whether or not Sophia wears a condom when she starts fucking other men I think is a more interesting question, but one that will only be answered years from now.

L&P does hate spoilers which is why I was very surprised for him to reveal the contents of the bag ,maybe not full contents.
He told us that the Aiden tasks would not be that extreme but worded it in such a way that it is open to broad interpretation.
There are at least 4-5 ways to solve the Bennett problem and maybe 2 to solve the Aiden problem.
There are so many characters in this game that we know so very little about
The hints are vague and not enough information is given for the player to make a reasonable deduction and I wish he would loosen his grip just a bit concerning the hints.
what 4-5 ways are there to solve the bennett problem ?

A few years?!! A child in first grade today will be finishing their post-doctorate degree by the time we get playable day 30.

This Antonio scene was very hot. Almost like Sophia's first Hetro without her dirty talking.
IMHO the Antonio scene just edged out the julia/ellie/sophia scene at the pool for most sexually charged. I didn't think so on the first time through but after playing both again, and paying close attention to Alyssa's expressions as she worked the controls, yeah, that was good stuff.

Where is this "few" years? Which event are we talking about now?

One of the things I'm wondering now, is that if it's someone other than Liam that gets Sophia pregnant, especially if her and Liam aren't having sex like I believe most people play, how is Liam going to react?

Miscommunication, you didn't say "few" - my brain must have inserted that on its own.

Liam will flip out probably, but given the timing the game would have to skip several weeks (which is entirely possible) for pregnancy to matter. I sincerely hope the game doesn't digress into Sophia agonizing internally and with her female friends about what to do about or how to talk about a pregnancy that she's pretty certain isn't Liam's. With this dev I just couldn't stomach the time spent visualizing all that.

I am more of a Hetro guy so for me it was Sophia riding Antonio. The pleasure she felt during that time.

Good news and a relief for Liam that on the GW route they are having sex. FW route he is screwed.
Remember that Liam was panicked for quite a while that things were "off". He still still has no idea Dylan had swapped his little blue pills with the EstroMax 9000's and that was the reason for his sensitive and tender pecs. This brings up the reason why he is worried about his swimmers and was avoiding the bedroom. Maybe the doctor will present a solution? Maybe they need a volunteer? Sophia no doubt thinks that someone who knows how to trim the hedges would be nice. Will be interesting to find out how everything plays out.;)

Liam is not worried about his swimmers as he was joking.
I asked the dev about Liam's bringing up the subject about his "swimmers" after they had sex in the shower and it is nothing but banter/joking with his wife.

This update does feel like an inflection point. If it's good, AND L&P is somehow able to follow up with the next update within the next four months, he could see an explosion in patrons. But we all know that there's no chance for the next update to be released quickly; so what does that mean?

If this update is universally accepted as good, but it's the only update this year, I think he'll hold steady for the most part but he won't see much long-term growth. A surge in June and July that tappers off in August and flatlines through the Fall, that's how I envision it. Any potential decline in patrons won't occur unless the next update slips to February 2022.

If this update is disappointing, then all bets are off. If the discussion around this update is centered around its perceived shortcomings, and the next update is nowhere on the horizon, then I think he may see actual declines in patrons beginning in August. He would still get a short-term bump in June and July, but if word of mouth is bad and as August gives way to September without a new release, I think there may be some disgruntled patrons. Normally I think he could ride-out any bumps in the road, but with this update being so large, taking so long to develop, and being so hyped, I think there's a lot riding on it. And it isn't helped by the fact that the next update isn't expected any time soon, so v0.130 has to stick the landing.

If this update is disappointing, and yet his patron numbers continue to steadily creep upward, then he'll be pretty much bulletproof.
It's possible that your take on this is correct but I think, to be fair, that some of the hype was created by us, on this thread. It's a pragmatic policy, I think, to never expect too much from updates. I never do, so that if they turn out better than expected it's a boost. (Alyssa's coffee shop event & introduction of Antonio felt like this for me). IMO L&P has chosen to paint himself into a corner when it comes to the 12 tasks, so that it becomes hard to believe very much will happen. I'm still looking forward to it, though mainly out of a great curiousity.

Disgruntled patrons may choose to vote with their wallets but others will take their place & things will be probably stabilise. What I'm not looking forward to is the inevitable visitation, beginning on the day of the update & lasting for a week or two, of the many shouting, insulting, immature, frustrated individuals who descend like the harpies from Jason & the Argonauts, (1962 version) & then thankfully sod off back to their bedrooms, parent's basements, attics etc. This happens every time & proves that there are many, normally silent, lurkers out there. They're spoiled rotten for choice of porn but still opt to follow AWAM & whine about the lack of it. As Americans often say, "go figure."

I feel that the pivotal point could well be the first sexual encounter in 'San Alejo real time.' That will be an occurence where it will be really dfficult but essential to live up to the hype. That point, however, is still years away & the horizon is constantly receding.

Good to know it was banter. Didn't take it that way. Thanks. (y)
Concerning Dylan though, I still think it is a shit thing to do to his own father.;)
