Hey, they're not all like that! The one from Depraved Awakening and Acting Lessons for example are good decent MCs provided you don't make them act like assholes.This is my biggest issue with this game. You can shape the character somewhat, and it seems like he's your character but all of a sudden Pinkcakes makes him do whatever he wants even if it's OOC, like running away from Sage.
I also love the MC telling everybody that it's time to grow up and stop relying on daddy, and then daddy comes and furnishes our house for us.
It's the nature of these games I guess though it's not unique to DIK, I don't think there is a relatable MC they're all cunts.
As for our MC...well, "cunt" can be a little extreme, but yeah, sometimes, I just can't sympathize with MC.
* When explaining his backstory with Zoey (or whatever his ex gf was called), dude literally continued to beat the guy he fought right after he already floored him, and yet to this day, he still thinks his punishment was unfair
* He storms out of Maya's dorm and spends much of episode 4 sulking after finding out that her and Josy are girlfriends, nevermind the fact that he was dating both of them and possibly sleeping around with other girls, all without any option to stay and talk things out right then and there. Granted, Maya has a part of responsibility for leading him on at first, but Josy has told him from day one that she was in a relationship.
* And...yeah, the rebound guy thing is dumb on the DIK path. They've been literally fucking each other as soon as Sage because she was suspecting that Chad was cheating on her, and it's now that they broke up that you worry that she might be seeing you as the rebound guy?
He's still not as much of an asshole as most MCs at least. Even the DIK version of the character has plenty of nice moments with other characters outside of our choices, and even when he goes through the phases we mentioned, he thankfully grows out of them rather quickly, so there is that.
