I just finished the first run of Acting Lessons
maybe if I had played it before I wouldn't have started BADIK, I don't know.
I hope DPC has improved in the management of dramatic moments (the problem is not the death of an LIs, but having accumulated a series of twists in a couple of chapters, which make them not credible, up to chapter 6 is a masterpiece )
right now if it turns out that Bella was a new Ed Gein, Jill was a shemale, MC heir simultaneously of both the Royce and the Burgmeisters, Maya kidnapped and transformed into a sex slave by some Colombian cartel ... I wouldn't wonder much
DPC I recommend .. study!
