My take on the v 0.180 release:
I enjoyed it for the story telling, and certainly Not for the minigame.
It was clearly not intended to be a hot release like the Dylan/Amber or Sam/Sophia releases were.
I think it laid the groundwork for possible lesbian play between Sophia and Claire, although we will not see any of this until at least 2026+ unless Patricia is going to surprise Sophia and have Claire join them at Zoe's ranch.
While I am on the Dylan path, I enjoyed the relationship building between Dylan and Marie.
There was good chemistry and Marie has definitely expressed an interest in seeing Dylan again, specifically to see him play football, to have him watch her in an MMA competition and for a fun 'fight' bout that has a lot of potential to get physical, in a very fun way.
I try to play Dylan as an increasingly mature guy who is working on leaving the pettiness of childhood behind and this rev allowed me to play Dylan that way.
Marie's current boyfriend Devon is a douche... I mean who belittles a paying customer's son while his girlfriend's mom is providing that woman with a service in her place of business?
The cuckolding I am now looking forward to is Dylan taking Marie away from Devon (who will get caught cheating on Marie or some other reason for her to kick him to the curb).
I'm picturing Dylan sending Devon a picture of Marie riding Dylan cowgirl with the caption: "Hmmm ... Tall enough to enjoy this rollercoaster!"
Still - reality must check in now.
If the soonest that Dylan and Marie get more time together is PD 16 (the day after Sophia's trip to Zoe's ranch), then, at current development speeds, we are looking at 2028 or later to see how this relationship grows.
This goes back to the idea that the individual pieces of the AWAM story/puzzle are well-crafted, but we are missing hundreds of pieces before we have a complete AWAM picture.
It will be decades before we get the majority of those pieces, again - at the current rate of development.
I'll enjoy checking in each calendar quarter of a given year for an update, but I don't hold out hope for more of an immersive story unless I walked away and only checked back in each time the U.S. has a presidential election...
