VN Ren'Py A Wife and Mother [v0.215f] [Lust & Passion]

A full week of shortened projections. He's definitely in cruise control for this second event. Validates the conjecture that doing events around the house - that is, no new environments and no new characters - would be relatively fast.

You are sure he has not begun the Sam event yet? IF so then, with the above situation, we will see a slowdown. If not, and he is actually working the Sam event, this has real potential to accelerate. October becomes feasible. I agree with your estimate of the situation. I do not think Sam event has begun. However, if he makes late October or early November time frame with release (No pun intended), the opportunity to move toward 1PD or more a year is there. How many more new settings does he need (Ranch for sure). But everything else (School room, Home, Amber's home, Alyssa's home, coffee shop, etc) will exist. and can be reused. The issue will then move to actual story creation.

Really, the only way to approach the next update is that it'll be done when it's done. While I appreciate all the effort being made to predict when the update should be finished I'm not holding my breath. No matter what happens, at best we'll have two updates this year and that's simply unimpressive. I don't mean to be negative, I just don't want anyone to get too invested in predictions on when the update will be out because if November comes and goes without an update this thread could erupt.

Could? I believe the explosion might rival Krakatoa!

Two things: I genuinely hope everyone understands I’m not actually trying to predict the when, I’m just interested in the shape of the curves (cuz I have to wait so long to see Sophia’s and Ellie’s) and two, I have no doubt that November will come and go without an update.

And which curves are those? Doh! Oh you meant the graphs. Silly me!

If you read into the early dialogue on the Ellie route, her hatred of Dylan starts far earlier than anything we currently know about. The day 3 event at the pool really starts the story of Dylan doing something that Ellie for whatever reason that medical violence is apparently fair play.

Whatever the result of the bonus storyline, my real hope is that it reconciles this. What could Dylan have done for Ellie to resort to medical violence? Considering there's essentially no medical reason for her to be able to get the Viagra in the first place, what could he have possibly done for the vengeance to be worth it?

I had a friend in High School that played a funny (From the outside) but horrible (From the pranked) prank on his sister. It was not permanent but, only came off by wearing off with time. Be careful how you use silver nitrate. His father informed him to find a place to live until he was informed it was safe. Siblings!

Hi, i have a question. On Day 16, during the casino date night supposedly there's an option (according to the walkthrough) to stop Liam gambling and go home and have sexy time but I'll never had that option appear. At the time, Sophia said she has another date night with girls anyway (Patricia and Ellie) to the club so she just left Liam.

Another note is the day before (i think) Liam give her a rose and i chose react cheerfully (+25 GW, -25 F). I play on filthy route btw and i i use cheat mode version.

How do i get that option appear? Is it because i agree going to the club with the girls? Or is it because i pick the +25 GW -25 F option?

To stop Liam from gambling you have to refuse to go out with the sauna guys. GW/FW points are not a discriminant here.
To do that, in the sauna (day 15) you have to choose "Tell 'em the truth" when Patricia suggests that Sophia has a son but she's not married anymore.
Technically, it will set the variable day15_Sophia_told_the_guys_she_and_Patricia_are_married to "True" and you avoid the nightclub event.

IIRC, she tried to justify her actions by claiming he purposely left the bathroom door unlocked while 'he' was taking a shower, thus surprising and embarrassing her, not to mention she claimed he called her a 'slut' and apparently tried to grope her. I did not remember the last to claims, but the bathroom incident depending on how you played it was Sophia fault, and she even admitted it to Ellie, who still didn't back down and claimed the prank was justified based on the other 2 incidents. What's even more fucked up is Ellie admittedly recruited sweet and innocent Julia and Christine to also join in the prank and also spike his hamburger, thus giving him 3xs the normal dosage.

I'm really surprised Ellie escaped relatively unscathed, not even with getting grounded.... iirc, just her allowance suspended for the week, lol. She just better be thankful Dylan and Sam don't know her own dirty secrets, including outing Julia to her parents and exposing her experimental relationship around school. That said, I don't think Dylan would ever do that even if he had proof of them kissing and making out. Though he may threaten to do it without actually planning on following through, if it meant Ellie would be nicer to him.

After the yoga session, I'm hoping for some more Marie/Dylan one-on-one MMA time. Also optimistic we'll get more chances for Ellie/Julia/Sophia play time, maybe even some shower fun as Ellie secretly invites Julie to take a shower with her and Sophia!

I agree the punishment to Ellie was BS.

I assume that he works linearly through the events in the same order they appear in the game. That is purely an assumption based on absolutely no evidence whatsoever. If that's correct, once he hits 50%/50% he's starting on the concert event.

Besides the ranch event the only new environment that comes to mind is Dylan's class trip to Space Camp.

It was clearly that Elli was tired of her brother's aggressive, voyeuristic behavior in the past. As the sister of a brother who is constantly looking for the opportunity to look into the blouse neckline or under the skirt, it is not surprising that Elli reacts aggressively and negatively to her Dylan. Even Sophia couldn't deny Dylan's behavior towards her daughter. The open door to the bathroom caused the barrel to overflow at Elli's. The reaction to this with a quadruple dose of Viagra was thoughtless and dangerous, but a typical teenage reaction. Still, I think Elli is a manupulative little bitch who would make life hell for a nerd at school, but who would later turn life into a perfectly normal, decent person.

They are going to 'Space' Dylan. Isn't that a little harsh?

I get that from her perspective she's tired of his antics, but it would be a little nice to know she didn't always hate her brother, and secondly, can at least try to sympathize with what he's going through, being shy and introverted, especially around girls with his hormones raging (its not like Ellie can't sympathize with her own raging lust and reawakening of her own sexuality with not only Logan, but Sophia and now Julia.).

After all, by all accounts, Ellie is damn well near the most attractive girl in school and captain of the cheerleading squad, while the groping is a no go for me, the occasional lustful looks can at least be understood as long as there is an attempt to be more discreet and Dylan isn't out and out just staring at her 'assets'.

He is still working on the Dylan/Ellie event

I ask the sacred flames that same question every night, I pray for a glimpse of Sophia reborn, but all I am shown are a fairy, a nutcracker and a dancing rat.

North Georgia, near a certain river that Burt Reynolds and Ned Beatty traversed in canoes. I swear I hear Banjos!

But are those banjoes engaged in a pre-arranged single combat?

I remember how the developer cried that he would not master all the planned directions in the game. If Dylan goes to the camp, then this way the developer will get rid of him. There will be no stories with Dylan - he is not there-everything is fucked up - he flew, fucking, into space with the nearest rocket. it will be a pity, of course, - he is a little asshole, but he has the right to put someone on his pod.
sorry for my english

With the same spirit and academic curiosity as Talcum Powder 's prediction graphs, I looked back at 0.130 to see when we had more or less the same progress point (45-40, that 15% of PS counts for a 0.75% overall)
It was back on Feb 23rd, https://f95zone.to/threads/a-wife-and-mother-v0-130-lust-passion.5944/post-5179225 (btw, I started to follow this forum few days after that)
I think he had just finished the side job events (nursing + tutoring) and about to start Aiden's 3rd task.
I see people comments hoping for a March/April release, we all know what happened then .

I don't want to say or imply anything with this, really it is just for the curiosity of looking back, call it Throwback Wednesday/Thursday according to your timezone.
If anything, it only confirms that the production rate is faster if the assets and environment are already created from previous events, but, surely, it is stating the obvious. Let's see, soon he is going to start with Sam's concert, we will see how it goes for that.

I never really understood why Ellie seems to have so much animosity or indifference towards Dylan. It would have been nice if she used to be more affectionate towards her brother in the past, at least until he started to hit puberty. I get that he could be annoying at times, but he never comes across as aggressively annoying. The Viagra prank was colossally cruel and messed up. That punishment did not fit the alleged crime imho. In spite of everything he helped fix her laptop even while she was snooping around his room, making childish, immature comments and basically acting like the way she accused him of behaving. I loved how he pointed out her hypocrisy at the end.

Then again, maybe I’m just salty after they made the move to their new home and reconnected with their neighbors, I immediately had hoped Jules would have been his first girlfriend after seeing how cute and adorable she looked, lol. Definitely didn’t see that reveal coming…. Im glad to see he’s got quite the appreciation for the older ladies like Sophia, Patricia and Claire, but Claire’s daughter is the only one I’d like to see him with. Christine and Emma don’t really move the needle for me, and sadly Julia is NEVER going to happen.

Still holding out hope for either a Dylan/Aunt Patricia/Sophia 3some, or a Dylan/Sophia/Ellie one, though that seems extremely unlikely after the Viagra prank.

Have you had the scene where Dylan fixes Eliie's laptop?
