I remembered that I had this video saved on my PC and I believe Adam himself deleted it from his socials a while back (could be wrong, but I have trouble finding it online now), so I figured I should post it here, for posterity's sake.
This was a sneak peek of Lydia/the Nympho pulling in to pick Elora up in an early development build of RWS. It's a neat little interaction that I felt was worth preserving.
Maybe some people will find it interesting.
I like that you hear Lydia talk for only a moment, but you immediately know what she's all about. lmao Girl wants Elora bad.
In all seriousness, at least according to some comments on Lydia's page on the Rides With Strangers wiki (so take them with a grain of salt), there was more footage of Elora's ride with Lydia that Adam showed off in a live-stream a long while back that showed her being pretty seductive with Elora (duh) and also showed that she doesn't like family being brought up? Which, if true, is a pretty neat dynamic/difference between her and Elora.
We know that Elora's reasoning for pursuing the job interview in her backstory so adamantly was at one point because said job involved being able to work on a cure for her mom's illness (and at one point, if I recall correctly, the entire goal of the ride was changed to simply getting to her mom's deathbed before she passed away) so we know Elora cares deeply for her family. I wonder what Lydia's relationship with her family was to make her react so negatively? And does it potentially tie into her hyper-sexuality? Does it explain her behaviors? Much to think about!
If anyone has any more information about that live-stream, by the way, I'd love to hear it! I can't find any archive of it anywhere (assuming that it existed in the first place).
