All right, finally finished the new update. As other have already noted, almost all of the new sex animations are still stuck in the same old Pandora system and are still mostly just detached 10-sec loops (exactly 10 seconds for the 1 PP loops actually). And yes, I did notice that FOW actually added the bare minimum, most bare-bones semblance of "context" to those scenes by slapping a sentence or two as a description onto each Pandora card.
However, this almost feels like a desperate measure to be honest, as this is a design decision I would expect to see in a game made by a solo indie creator who's never made any hentai games before. I'm still not seeing how they can possibly salvage this system with the upcoming "evolution" of Pandora, since if those newly-added descriptions are to be trusted, entirely new build-up scenes would have to be animated for each scenario to truly start making sense, and I somehow doubt they are planning to do that. At the moment, you simply can't "stitch together" X number of cards and have the final product be cohesive.
On the other hand, I have to give it to them that they FINALLY added a sex scene within one of the story cutscenes (with Elaisha), which is exactly what I was talking about when I made that poll a week ago regarding the £400 000 stretch goal with the cinematic cutscenes. I hope this wasn't just a one-off thing because Elaisha just happens to be a porn star and it is convenient to have such a scene in the story. And if this does keep up, I wonder if the story scenes are all going to remain vanilla. Well, we're just gonna have to wait until ~March 2022 to get the next glimpse!
