True, but that applies to pretty much all adult characters in the game. Not so much for the incest/teen routes as that would require a much more corrupted Sophia imo. Which reminds me that Sophia is somehow getting it on with teens and relatives before anything.... Yeah, it's stupid.
Anyway, the reason for L&P to delay sexual content involving Sophia as much as possible is because in his mind, the game is getting boring after Sophia had sex with someone other than her husband. That's atleast what he says. Obviously that's complete nonsense aslong as the game has a solid, immersive story to offer. Which isn't really the case ever since he went from 1/3rd PD to event based releases in my opinion, but meh...
My theory? It's not so much that he believes the game would become boring, but more about the insanely long development time to achieve some form of story progression which is already a bummer for any supporter. If he were to remove the excitement many people still have for Sophia's "first time" with whatever character, it would surely result in more supporters being unhappy about the slow development, which right now many of them more or less endure to finally make it to the end of the tunnel that is Sophia's sex scenes. If he were to take this "excitement" away, what really is left apart from another 40 years of development? Certainly not a great story to look forward to, especially not since it takes him more than 2 years for a single fucking ingame day. Any immersion is ruined by the stupidly long time between days. Waiting for a couple PD's to be released is not an option either, unless you wanna come back in 10 years. But who in their right mind would do that?
So basically what he's doing is called DLC. Dangle Le Carrot. Yes, that's an insider some people here may remember. lol
Bennett’s story was a small example. I can do the same for other characters too.
The concept of Sophia’s corruption was great and people felt it was reviving their most secret desires… even now there is still time to bring the story in line.
Regarding LP’s statement that once Sophia has sex the game will get boring I would say yes and no… Depends the way we reach there. In the future I’ll bring examples to show you that this is achievable.
The story is in development 7 years now… another 10 years is tolerable but after that becomes totally obsolete… If LP is claiming that the story is already there for the full project I understand that:
- either the text is written for the whole 30 days period,
- or a flowchart is there with all possible outcomes…
That’s a good start to build up the game but LP should not get lost in the labyrinth of details.
Regarding incest. I understand that most of LP’s patrons are into that, provided that Sophia’s children are the most popular characters in the game. In real life incest is boring, sick, problematic… There’s no love story behind it. That’s why it is hard to create a plausible and pleasant story around it. Realistically speaking I wouldn’t expect that to happen in a family like the Parkers in this game.
The story is overcrowded and LP needs to focus on specific characters. Not everyone will like it… but if he wants to finish it he must do it. You can’t create “The Lord of the Rings” without a big team behind… LP currently is trying to fulfill many different fantasies and fetishes and this is not possible…
