So, what exactly were you expecting? Is this a game? No, it's just a joke.

Nah, it's been a pretty good game, or I wouldn't be in this thread. I'm really curious what the dev has been up to the past five months. The last time there was an update we had much more content which I enjoyed.
But overall, the game is a good one. Maybe this will be a lesson to the dev... I hope so anyhow.

As usual, I'm gonna replay the game from start. Because I did remember I fucked up the Dylan route. Do everything else except the good wife. I don't really do good wife route. Unless it has a lot of scenes then I'll make the saves seperate.

There is actual sex scenes on the good wife route with Sophia. She has sex with Liam multiple times. Hottest scene (in my opinion) is the sex in the office. So it's worth a playthrough at least just to unlock the sex scenes.

Yep, that's the playthrough I've been talking about, and why I suspect many of the previously regular players of the lesbian route like farrah aren't around as much anymore.I just started a new game with my "Lesbian Only" route save and the game was so short, I burst out laughing and I just had to make a video clip of it and show you. Trust me, you won't be watching this very long!
This is a 40 second video! LMFAO

instead of giving money to this guy save up and book a hooker or join a gym
Didn't work for me but based on your 40 sec video, guess I'm not missing out on much lol

Yes! This seemed like a huge missed opportunity to tie story elements together! It would have been really interesting if that line of dialogue had been pursued.

Apocalust wasn't my recommendation, and while they are nice, smooth and stlyish, they are not better.
I won't argue the quality point about City of Broken Dreamers: it is definitely stylistically different so perhaps preference is clouding my judgement a bit. Also, with CoBD when there are sex scenes with a character I'm not interested in I can skip it without worring about whether I've just reached the end of the update. So that's a factor as well...

L&P has been learning how to use Blender for several months. He's asked for help on how to import his assets from DAZ to Blender on F95, and he's been taking live lessons on Twitch from an actual professional on how to create animations using Blender. And the few second long loops we've seen in this update are totally achievable for someone with L&P's experience in creating art. That's why the animations do look decent, but from a technical standpoint are really mediocre compared to actual professionals.
Check the AWAM off-topic thread. I did post animations made by actual pros a while ago. Much more fluid, MUCH longer than L&P's so claimed "minute long animations" which take "a professional months to make". Which isn't the case in this update as you probably know. And it also doesn't take a pro several months to create a minute long high quality animation either, but oh well.

Yes, thank you, that was 100% rape. On one hand I like that we really hammered home that Aiden and Andre are pieces of shit and are actually dangerous, but on the other hand why can't we just have something be fun and sexy? Between this and the apostles, I really have to start looking at L&P with a lot of side eye.Trying to put a positive outlook on things:
I don't think there would be any outrage or disappointment about this update if it had been released in late January/early February (with the Aiden/Jennifer/Andre scene being shown in still shots). It would demonstrate that he could actually churn out a decent amount of content in 10-12 weeks. But that's just not our man, is it...
Task 4: I expected very little and that's exactly what we got.
AJA Bonus scene: That was a rape. And fuck you if you suggest otherwise. That being said, I genuinely appreciated the set up. It makes Aiden an even darker character. He's not just a sleazy entitled teenager, he's genuinely fucked up. That he'd put up his girlfriend as collateral for a bet with a friend and just brush aside her protests and then threatens her younger brother is definitely sociopathic, demonstrating his capacity dehumanize. Jennifer said quite explicitly that she did not want a threesome but Aiden went ahead and disregarded that, too. Andre's narcisism and lack of empathy were on display as well, building nicely on his cheeky
I think Sophia is in for a rough ride if she (we) stay with the tasks. No spoiler here: I will be staying with the tasks.
I had to console-cheat to get the Morello scene, regretted doing so: I just hate it on so many levels. I did retain the save cuz a game like this, might as well keep a few paths going. Who knows what that favor might be if it ever does materialize.
Not gonna lie, the Dylan + Ellie scenes were really sweet, a pretty solid slice-of-life vignette. One question though, unless I missed it, shouldn't Christine's sister have been in the car at the very end?
L&P committed to doing animations and while there's no doubt he over-hyped the quality, the animations were definitely high quality as far as these games go and considering it's his first serious attempt. Of course there are better animations, I'm not an L&P fanboy, but I think a lot of the comments about the animations being crappy (and worse) are a reaction to L&P's bragging and the fact that it added two full months (at least) to the development and that it's between third/fourth tier characters, and do not represent an honest appraisal of on what's actually appearing on screen. The dude is so full of himself and so full of shit ( does that make him actual shit? I dunno, debate for another day I guess ) I doubt anyone here really believed his bluster or put much stock in it. 8.5/10 in context. Compared to the wider world of erotic/sex animation, 6.5/10.
The one thing I will say about the animations: the learning curve he's been on is now a sunk cost. It shouldn't be such a massive drag on production time in the future, and I think L&P will recognize he's maybe getting on to thinner and thinner ice with the hardcore, long-term Patreon supporters. The next animations better involve Ellie's pussy getting licked by her mother or Sophia's pussy getting licked by, preferably Ellie or Alyssa but really, I'd take Sam or Zach, even Dylan, at this point, just definitely someone other than Liam.
Overall, and factoring in the "investment" in animations and its potential for future payoff, I'm going to give this update 7.5/10.
Otherwise, I'm surprised about the overall positivity of your review. I agree that the animations were good, not great, but they just didn't justify the long development.
I found the reasoning for Christine's departure to be really weird and poorly conceived. I get it, he wanted Ellie to be left alone, but the whole set up just seemed pretty amateur. Ellie said that she should have known Tyler and the guys would be there since it's their place to hang out. Umm...I knew a lot of college guys and I never knew any that hung out at diners. Like, it just felt like L&P shoehorned two different ideas (Ellie/Christina/Dylan have a nice hang-out & Dylan rescues Ellie from harassment from Logan's friends) into one scene. Sometimes triage is good, and L&P is known for overdoing it and having too many scenes with too many renders, but this scene just kinda went off the rails for a minute.
I'm of two minds of Task 4. On one hand I thought it was the high point of the update, on the other hand it brings the game to a jumping the shark moment. I can't say that I thought it was recycled version of earlier tasks because that's kinda the point of progressing the tasks. Each task builds off the previous one so that the corruption feels more organic and believable. The mistake was upping the ante so much with Task 3, because we all should have known that we'd take a step back in Task 4.
But that said, the way Task 4 unfolded was jarring. Ok, so Sophia needs to flash the class her underwear; that's a task. Ok, Sophia needs to get a student to feel her boob; that's a task. But to do both in the same task? That's a lot. And then for Sophia to just stand in front of the class like that? That was something I'd expect from a regular porn game, not AWAM. Was it sexy? Yes. Was it stupid? Yes.
Her process to get Zach to grab her boob was pretty good though, I really don't have any complaints about that. But letting her boobs hang out freely? Like, guys...do you know anything about boobs? You don't just put those massive boobs back into place easily. Again, was it sexy? Yes. Was it stupid? Yes.
I feel like everything in the classroom was handled poorly. Conceptually I didn't hate the ideas, but the execution felt really clumsy.

He'll up that a notch. It'll be 6 months. You'll be hyped throughout the journey, and will be letdown at the end of it.

It's a very delicate looking outfit. I think it's a halter top with a pair of shorts with lace trim. I mean, it's cute, I like it, but it's a very odd choice for meeting Aiden. It's such an odd choice that I expect(ed) that it will mentioned. Like, you wouldn't wear that while meeting a rapist in his dingy hole in the wall homebase. In fact, you wouldn't be meeting a rapist in person at all.

I really expected a huge update after the long development time. This is a disservice to all the fans and patreons. Hope he realises that. If not, this is not going to end well for him, seeing how very few people are impressed with his release on patreon. 16 likes, yikes!

And if there's one thing this update did really well it was show us just how deeply Sophia hates Aiden. Like, there is not an ounce of respect or suppressed attraction, she just fucking hates him.
