Does this blackmail story with Aiden is heading towards love between Aiden and Sophia in the end? Dialog beetwen two of them in the last update and the scenario of this last third blackmail task would suggest such a possibility. It'll turn out in the end, that Sophia will eagerly waiting for the next meeting with Aiden and for the next task from him, ready and impatient for sex with Aiden. If so I would be very disappointed.

I think, that this whole Aiden blackmail story branch should have some kind of violence in, with Sophia being with fear, humiliation, maybe even some forms of aggresive behavior toward her, like spanking, force exposing, bending over the table, aso.
I don't want another love story in this game. We have planty of them so far, between Sophia and Sam, Sophia and Dylan, Sophia and Don Morello brother, enough. Don't be given me another one, give me something different, something really hard, with humiliation, spanking, forced lewd behavior.
I also don't want the blackmail to be something Sophia looks forward to, or even initiates. As I've said several times on this thread, if such a thing happens, it will no longer be blackmail but a type of sex game between two consenting participants. Having said that, I enjoyed the 3rd task, which I think got the balance just right....for the 3rd task. L&P has already announced very restrictive limits on the use of force, in comparison to other games of this type but I still follow the blackmail because IMO it's entertaining. Unlike many vocal critics here, I enjoyed this update & the art class played a big part in this.

I have finished playing v0.130 and went through things carefully, critically, and analytically. Here comes a long post... Then I'm probably gonna roll out until around next update because the party is over for now.

Here is my analysis of the update of the game as a whole where it stands, and how it could be improved to get better feedback in the future.

My take on the scenes in this update:

My Advice for L&P moving forward in the best way possible from here:

You make some good points & I agree with many but Cathy is not a new character. She just seems that way because it's so long since we've seen her in real time. Ages ago I suggested losing the side jobs to no avail. Now I think it's more important than ever to write them out.

So guys, allow me to divert the discussion to a different direction for a bit, as im also a big awam fan. With one question:

1. How can we, the community, help L&P to develop the game at an efficient pace, lets say... reach 1 update/2 months?

To be honest, I feel like money isnt enough, he already reached all goals. So what else can we do? Which one of us works in translations? Which one of us can get a rendering factory to fasten that process for him? Like for real...

Same question for L&P, how more can we help?

I dont want to give any story directions, everything is great as it is, as long as the story does move forward. So...

How can we help? How does L&P wishes to be helped?

I fully agree with that opinion. Art modelling scene is materpiece from graphic perspective, but I feel that this whole scene is somehow odd, too sophisticated, with diminishing fun at the end of scene. I would expect something simpler with maybe less dialog would be more exciting.
I mean its kinda the thing with L&P now, noone can really say bad stuff about the overall graphics quality but the writing of the scenes and how they are portrayed are most of the time long and uneventful, a lot of words/dialogue are being put there in place but they end up being "empty" and drag on.

There are amateur or professional writers that need word word word word word word word word to get somewhere and there are again amateur or professional writers that need word word word to get somewhere and they get to the point quicker but in a much more exciting way.

Anyway, after actually checking out this new update and not going with unren, i feel like there are like 100 characters now.
I was going through the saves to find the last one where i picked the main path i wanted and i was seeing all these characters that are pretty much forgotten or they may get some little amount of content in like 2-3 years.

More characters make the world feel bigger i know that, but for me it just seems like a way to delay the progression of main/old characters that people want to see the most, especially in a game that has a really slow development time between updates.

I come here after each update just to be disappointed. Same reason I visit the Blossoming Love game every update....

I know that many who just signed in, have certain "questions" and don't understand a few things. Why I don't answer you right now is, because some of these "new supporters" have only signed up to share my game on a pirate site! A site where 95% of the "users" sling mud at me and my game!
This is my way to protect my work for at least a little bit and reward those who are supporting me faithfully and not just come by here when a update is out!

I'm sorry for those, who're new and actually don't want to share my game but only wanna play it themselves. But you knew that the game was about to be released and could join in earlier!

And as I can see, my method was a success until now, since it was still not shared!
To protect my "special teasers" in future from pirate sites, I will also create a private circle on my Discord server where I will only invite supporter who I can trust and who're supporting me the longest. Regular teasers will be still shared here on Patreon. I wouldn't have to do this, if special human beings here would have a little bit repsect to accept that if I ask to not share a certain teaser please, they also shouldn't do it!

Future update releases will also come out on this private Discord channel first and only the second day on Patreon.
I'm really sorry for this and sorry for all those who're actually honest persons. But what's happening since a year on pirate sites where people absolute don't understand and only bringing it into derision, how much effort has to be put in in such a project (which you only need to ask those devs who're also doing it professionally) and that since January I hadn't 1 single day free! Plus this game is a matter of the heart for me and the more I'm annoyed by such special human beings who offend me the whole time but then want the new updates immediately and for free, as soon as they're out!

So, I had to show some kind of reaction! I will still start answer on your requests again today. Then this post will also be deleted since it's just a current information.
WTF? I'm sure he gain atleast 50% of his patrons from F95 but then complain about piracy!

Thats the point I totally agree with, blackmail should be blackmail, therefore Sophia should always oppose, show angry face, not being cooperative, nat having fun at all, expressing fear and feeling humiliated. Otherwise, as You have written - blackmail is not blackmail any more, but is becoming a type of sex game between two participants. I am afraid that this story branch with Aiden goes in that direction, to my great worry.
As for, how much force and violence should be in this blackmail it's an open question. I wouldn't mind if there would be some kind of mild violance like spanking, forced exposing, forced kisses etc.
