I don't think that the game's mechanics are in cause. Living With Temptation also uses this formula and the game is absolutely amazing (by far the best LOP game for me). But I understand what you mean.

The more I play the game and the more it disappoints me. I think the game is not well-balanced. It's big, but in fact there are not so many interesting things to do, and there are not enough sex scenes.

I'm sorry to say that I have the impression that the game is a bit unfinished : after the 2nd promotion at the office, nothing more happens, the same at the strip-club. It results in the fact that the game quickly becomes repetitive and boring.
Several sex scenes should have been added to make the game more intense and also more coherent. Some examples :

1)at the office :
-a scene in drake's office with kevin (he suggested it in the 2nd promotion scene)
-a scene after completing the campaign (maybe Eleanor is offered by Kevin to the clients as a bonus for signing contract...)
-a scene with Paige after she helps you with kevin

2)at the club :
-another scene with Flake
-a scene where eleanor is catched working there by Kevin or Drake's friend or Drake

3)at home :
-more possibilities with Drake
-another scene with Drake's friend (maybe with the possibility for Drake to be involved in...)

I realize this would have been a big amount of work, but the game would have been immensely better.

As long as you have got $2000 and drake affection/relation at 500, you should get ending 5. It doesn't matter about the fidelity.
Ending 1 is if you have neither of the necessary stats.

I got ending 5 on first play through. All I did was work as a stripper as soon as I could afford the outfit and just worked on stats during the morning to get promoted, and then every evening at 18:00 invited drake upstairs. Got him to lick pussy first and then sex. Then at 20:00 went to the club to dance. Those things for the full 50 days was enough to end up with ending 5.

Damn, got almost 4500$, but no Rockefeller achievement... it 5K the goal?... hmm...
Got the 4 ending tho', it just required "dedication" at the strip club and it's owner.
And the achievements aren't saving even with Chrome, at this point I doubt the problem is local, probably just a bad week end for the guys' server

I understand. But as much as i hate to admit sound boring as hell...

Any hints?

Yes, read the thread...

Buy everyting at the mall.

[Oscirus]

I finally got all of the endings and accomplishments.

I got Rockefeller though and yes, it's 5,000 dollars.

I also got ending 3 which is so ridiculously easy to get that you'll kick yourself when you get it.

Have you wondered what would happen if you call Kevin's (the bearded guy's) bluff when he tries to blackmail you?

It was a fun game and she was very sexy. It was fairly challenging but there isn't as much replayability as I would have liked.

Is there a bonus gallery?

Nope, it was 5K, as Oscirus said. Sadly the game wouldn't save, so I have to do it again sometime

I'm sorry but they need to work harder if they want any more of my money.

Churning out the same tired old formula time after time isn't doing it... No matter how good the artwork.

Do you have any suggestions as to what the "new formula" would be?

A great thing that could be done (in general, not specifically for Eleanor) would be to have the amount of characters found in House Party and allow the same kind/amount of interaction/storyline with them as with Lisa and Tracy from Living with Temptation. That would be a huge project (maybe even worth selling independently), but I think the LoP team now has enough experience to complete such a task ! I'm probably just dreaming, but well

Maybe make smaller games... There's no need to make a game last 50 days if nothing interesting happens the last 10 days. This weakness tends to be reccurent: Jordan 500, Tori 500, Living With Temptation and now Eleanor... the last days of these games are too repetitive.
Or find a way to make the end more intense with special random events.

Of course your idea is good, but I'm not sure this will be possible. I remember iksanabot said he wanted LWT to be more massive and that he couldn't : too much work for the team to make one game (and maybe limitations of LOP Gold website ?)

Sorry Graen but I can't find your original response - In answer to your question: Maybe I can, but LOP is a business venture so how much are our ideas worth? Before giving it further consideration I'd prefer an upfront fee plus a percentage of income generated (while retaining all rights, of course).

You have (possibly with mischievous intent) misrepresented my statement. Apart from the uncharacterstic reactions sometimes displayed by the player choosing a different option, the main problem is with the game engine. Each game basically following the same well-trodden path of changing the values of certain variables by attempting different actions. In the words of the well-known saying, they are "stuck in a rut".

The other oft-used phrase I had in mind was "all good things must come to an end" - or perhaps you believe any successful series can continue ad-infinitum and most people would antcipate the imminent releases of Rocky XXXIV, Terminator CLVII or Nightmare on Elm Street CMXI with as much excitement as they did for the originals?
