if you didn't like it, it's a completely different story

remaining in this genre of games, often the sound (music, sound effects and "human verses") has been a real annoyance for me, so most of the games I have also used them in mute, and they remain absolutely enjoyable, you're right

here, however, the cinematic effect of the soundtrack gave me a plus, so important that when I now play another game without sound, or with an annoying sound that I am forced to mute, I miss it
On high production value games I will try the music first but most of the games I just mute without trying it since it is often terrible and loud.

For me sound and visual are somewhat disconnected so I can enjoy visual without audio but not the other way around.

I'm not missing a thing, I listened to the music the first time I played the game and wasn't impressed. The music and sound effects in a game don't add anything for me. Some people need music to get into something or enjoy it fully but I don't. I am as invested in the game as I can be. Music doesn't enhance the experience for me. I'd rather listen to my own music selection just how I've always been. Obviously we're not all wired the same so I don't expect people to have the same experience.
I always keep all sounds at 20
music 0 and
listen to my own song's playlist
music also doesnt matter to me

MrFriendly is right
music doesnt matter

About the rumors of the game going on for 10-12 episodes or 3 seasons instead of 16-20 episodes and 4-5 seasons...Did DPC express desire to shorten the VN or is this just a rumor?

This game is considerably longer than Acting Lessons. And that's good, it's only 6 episodes

Longer than AL, way more upbeat and way better overall! :D
I'll be honest, I just finished Acting Lessons an hour ago and therefore my emotions are still running high (my first time). So what I'm going to say is going to seem strange but that's how I feel it right now, AL is a more dramatic game, more adult and crude, that makes you think about death and the value of friendship as well as the importance of your choices and love. However I can say without mistake, that with AL despite feeling sad the end gave me a message of hope and I never shed a single tear despite the pain of letting go of X character, in my caseMegan, on the other hand in BaDIK I have cried and I don't know why ... I guess because the love affairs in this game have taken me to a more personal level by reminding myself , I don't know. It's strange and Im sorry so much text, I just wanted to give my opinion :)

Edit: And the girls from AL seem great to me, all but one damn bitch that I'm not going to mention ... ahem. But yes, I fell in love with Melissa, I loved Rena and Megan and Ana seemed like a repentant woman to whom I would give a second chance if it were my case. Chapeu to Dr.PinkCake for his work

Edit 2 : Josy and Maya are Melissa and Megan, I mean they are quite similar in personality and even in how they behave with the MC, let's hope the same does not happen xd

For me, seeing her smile and that of Liam's was enough to return my smile or make my eyes fill, but with happiness haha.

I believed that DPC is quite inspired by Japanese VNs since in them it is more common for a protagonist or the Li to die*

Hopefully it will not be repeated again here xD

No, I don't think so, but as I said above, Josy and Maya bring back many memories of Melissa and Megan. Only these were just friends

That's something I don't like. M&J look a lot like redoing Megan and Melissa. I hope it's not.

The game reveals Chad cheats on Sage with no hints whatsoever :
People : Chad might be gay
The game hints at Melanie for the first time at the end of an episode :
People : Nu-uh she was at the gym, she can't be
Melanie asks Sarah to have her back if things go "south", has cell number of Chad and on terms to be able to call him freely :
Nu-uh it's not her
Ep 6 drops, Chad directly looks at Melanie when Sage screams "who is the bitch?", she can't take it, starts saying "I can't..." and goes back to her room crying. Has guilty conscience, tries to act nicer than usual towards Sage throughout the episode
People : NaH ChAd GaY, MeLaNiE wAs At ThE gYm. I HoPe It'S TyBaLt
dunno which ones are worse, people insisting on not seeing Chad and Melanie liking each other, or the "Jill is MC aunt ones". At least we got rid of "MC mom not dead" guys, but most of them were "Jill aunt" people to begin with.
I'm %100 sure even if DPC shows a scene with Chad and Melanie together, hand to hand, there'll be some people saying "it's a ruse to cover for him being a gay". Amazing

It's not that we think Chad MUST be gay, we just recognize that it's the best explanation for the totality of the evidence we have.

If Chad is cheating with Melanie, AND is so committed to her that he will dump Sage on her say so... what could possibly have been in that envelope that brought him to tears when he though the MC was blackmailing him? If Mel will randomly fuck the MC in the shower, why does she care that Chad break up with Sage at all?

Mel being the sidegirl fits a few facts, but not as many as you think.
