Letting Sam hide in the bathtub gives him the chance to lick her vagina through the panties and it also raises the lewdness of the scene and further develop their relationship. To add more, there is a walkthrough in the main menu of the game (bottom left) you can see the needed choices for every scene to be unlocked
You are right with your question. It does not make sense. We can only assume that L&P had originally planned a denunciation, at least different dialogs, but dropped that in favor of the "faster" development pace. All the more so, as the decision to continue Sam's path was exactly the right one in the end, when Sam's behavior made Sophia the most angry. This could not have been foreseen.
Wait, you've had issues not being able to maintain Filthy > GW playing the Dylan route? I mainly choose the GW options, and I only have trouble in the beginning. Once you get to the shower with Patricia at the gym, it's been smooth sailing for me.
It was only that one scene with the gaming choice that caused an issue.
Respect all opinions about this game that would be pros and cons. Everyone has their own taste and expectation that would be respectful as well. As I have already mentioned in another reply, it's a taste. Whoever likes L&P's storyline and slow development can enjoy this game. I personally like his slow development, seduction, plots... (don't like no meaning of sex, too easy MC,...). Of course everyone wants to get the faster update (I also do) but it would not be happened in real time that we should accept it (we have no choice).
I can see you joined the thread in the same year as me, so you may remember when AWAM wasn't "just a porn game," even if that's basically what it is now, (albeit one that's due to end some time in the 2050s, if ever), because of the directions it's taken, owing to the Dev's decisions. I don't agree that the characters aren't interesting. If they were just dull cyphers for porn-game style sex, that's what would certainly make them uninteresting but you can judge for yourself by the comments, arguments & debates that this is not so for many followers.
I mean you can say, it wasn't ''just a porn game'' but when you make a character model that physically beautiful and surround the game with other physically beautiful characters what do you expect people to think.
Not that I'm particularly a supporter, especially not with some of the recent decisions, but what got me hooked initially was the fun characters. When I first started playing adult VNs, there was very little in terms of games with decent graphics that were female protag. Still aren't, but better than before.
If that was what defined a porn game, then most series coming from major TV & film producers, for the everyday commercial market, would be considered porn. (Some puritanical fanatics do consider it all to be porn in a different guise). You'll note I used the past tense in my original post. That's because AWAM did degenerate over time into what it became, i.e. another porn game.
As always since 2020, too few for the time spent making them and a couple minutes gameplay.
