When you're stating a fact - here that I don't know anything about the subject - the least you can do is to provide some argumentation, development, and proofs.

Yes you're right. But as regular the updates are (at least for Melody), I'm talking here about the contents of these updates. I personally think that someone working constantly on games like these ones should be able to propose updates a bit more consequents. Currently, there are close to no interactions, no branching, no new game mechanics, and in fact these updates are a bit short too (but maybe it's just me who think that way ?).
When I compare, for example, with what ICSTOR has done in more or less one month for the X-Mas addon of Milfy City... and that was just a bonus scenario ! Well, I think you see what I mean.
i'm not saying DMD is a bad game. And the same goes for Melody, even if I think it has no "uniqueness". But the games drag on and feel uninspired as the time goes on. MrDots should work a bit on the gameplay mechanics and the choices given to the players instead of going wityh the same formula at the same rythm since 2 years.

Then whay you said about the 1400 and 1000 renders?In 24 posts, it's not so bad.
My ratio is, by the way, higher than your.
But I'm not here to do a dick contest. From now on, I will answer your posts only if you have something constructive to say instead of "your posts are shit". My 15 years old are way behind me.
Since you have edited your previous post by adding this point AFTER my answer, of course I didn't see it. Please, at least be honest with your posts...
Now, to answer you : I don't really care about the quantity of renders. Much often, these renders are just slight variations of other ones. Surely it adds some life to the conversations with the characters, but the counterpart is that the "big" events with original graphics, animations, and sexual "activities" are spare.

You edited your post too.How I am suppose to know what you will said.
You are the one that bring what peoples do for 1 month not me.
In that case I will ask you, with no harm intention, a single question : do you have a job ?
If yes, then you surely are working constantly. Let's say, 7-8 hours a day. With the week-end, let's roughly say that you are working ~38 hours by week.
Now, once again, when someone is gaining surely way more than 10000$ by month, then I take as a fact that the activity procuring such a "salary" can be considered as its main activity.
Then, by considering that MrDots is working 38 hours by week, even 30 hours, and hell even 20 hours by week, can we consider that the updates as they are right now with Melody and DMD are in par with a "constant line of work" ???
We all know that Patreon is a "easy" source of income once you suceed in producing a game that appeals to the public. The problem is that, way too often, the authors do the max during the first steps of the games, and then adopt a somewhat "lazy" rhythm when they are gaining enough money. After all, why should they go all the way if things are right as they are ?
Look at Mr.c "Corruption" : the content of updates are now sometimes ridiculous, way lighter than what they were at the start of the development.
And should I talk about Akabur ? The perfect example of someone milking his patreons with absolutly no contents ?
Well. MrDots is not as "lazy" as these other developers, far from it. But he has now assumed a slow pace with his updates, with no novelties at all (once again) in the games' mechanics or in the stories. And for someone who, you are saying, is working "constantly" on these games, I find it a bit difficult to swallow.

Why you don't complain same way in Milfy City?He is making even more money and posts an update once per 3 months.
Or you better ask why games like Death Stars,Dual Family and Malise and the Machine are still making so much money without even updates.Mr.Dots is one of the most honest here and it's realy not fair to complain that he is taking a month off.

What's the point of all this discussion? Another random guy telling top-tier devs how they should run their businesses. How original...
The thread was created to discuss about what happens in the game, not to whine about what the dev does or does not do with his time or money. Grow up, please. And if you don't like the game or the dev, just move on.

Despite the fact that we can have sex with her 4 times,her tits are always covered.Not to mention we always do it doggy style.Is that a hint who will be into bestiality

DMD is still a great VN even after the Patreon drama that would have killed a lesser game.

First, I disagree with you regarding Melody. In terms of story structure, character architecture, etc, it has way more originality than 95% OG the other games out there. If you are considering only physical sex actions done as originality, then you are right. But then a variety of sex actions In itself is not particularly creative and original - it is the weaving of them in as part of an organic character/plot driven story that makes them creative and original.That is what bugs me. Not only for DMD, but also for many other incest games discussed on F95zone.
Guys are talking about romance, beautiful story, love, even art or whatever... But let's be honest : these games are just fap material with an extreme taboo fetish ! The problem is that there are so many games with incest at their core that people almost seem to believe that it's somewhat normal, that this fetish is just common.
Hell no ! It's ok to have fantasies about incest, not to cover our eyes with false pretexts like "love between two people", "beautiful story", "romance", etc...
And to those saying that Daughter's looks in DMD are just a graphic way to depict a 18 years old girl and nothing else, I'll say that I'm pretty sure that DMD had its success not only with the incestuous relationship as its core, but also with these girls looking like 14 yo schoolgirls. Let's get these things out of the game, and you have something with no originality and just pretty graphics (and a somewhat developed story). Look what happens with "Melody", the other game from the creators : its success is far less behind "Dating my daughter" because it has nothing really original : graphics are nice but girls are bland and uninteresting, no incest so no exciting taboos, etc...
I finally perfectly understand people saying that bestiality in DMD would destroy the story and their appeal for the game. But... if it's optional, it's not a problem, isn't it ? In DMD, we can already direct our daughter toward sharing, exhibitionism, bondage, and dirty talk, anal, and possibly a threesome relationship with Elena. But... all of these fetishes are optional and player CAN choose to let them happen or not. If for bestiality there is a warning from the father when the choice occurs, something like "Do I really want to see my daughter becoming more and more eager to do extreme things ?", with Yes/No choice, "NO" locking definitly bestiality from the next chapters of the story... then where is the problem ?
Like Longo McFap, I hope that these last petals of corruption will serve many purposes. Not for simply bringing anal = 1 petal, sex with Elena = 1 petal, cum inside without contraceptive = 1 petal. But for more "general" approach about the daughter's corruption, like 1 petal = ok to have sex with girls, 1 petal = ok to have sex in public, 1 petal = ok to dress and talk like a slut, 1 petal = ok to have bestiality, etc...
The best, overall, would be to have two routes where these petals will be used in totally different ways given the father's previous choice. But as the game is evolving right now (a visual novel with very little interactivity), I suppose it will never happen.
Anyway, if the authors can't read what we're talkiong about, I suppose that this discussion serves, alas, no purpose. I'd really like to have their two cents about this whole thing, though...
As for “success [of Melody] is far less behind [DMD]” - if you take f95 posts, then you are correct; if you take number of Patrons, then you are incorrect (though they had/have a difference of @ 200 Patrons I believe.)
As for MDots staff support in bestiality, one person discussed it with D (or hinted at it in a wishlist); there was discussion by another of it with Frank’s sister (kind of a punishment event); and I have been against it with D but okay with others. Have no idea where MDots stands on this as I never asked him.
I do know that (in this VN) incest has become SO much more normalized in this VN world compared to the real world. Take the male characters that have had more than one scene - three of them (MC, Jeff, and Olivia’s Dad) have hand incest. Add in that the only stated reason for a frowning on incest in this world is the view of society. There has not been, and probably won’t be, a discussion of genetic abnormalities in this VN as a reason against incest - imo in this world incest does not cause genetic issues. Instead, imo the societal issues revolve around the issue of parents being in a position of trust, so that incest with a daughter and a step or adopted daughter have the same weight.
We might still have beastiality yet, but I doubt it will be with D. D still has to work thru the following that have been hinted at through various means:
1 - anal
2 - rimming
3 - accept creampie - accept possible pregnancy
4 - marriage to MC
5 - threesome with Elena - Elena as housemate and MC’s sex partner
6 - accept Georgina/Jennifer as MC’s sex partners (and housemates, etc)
7 - accept swap with Margo
8 - whatever might come out of the hinted Rachel storyline
9 - whatever might come out of the Cassandra storyline
10 - whatever might come out of Martin storyline
11 - BDSM
12 - nude (and sexual) photography for someone other than MC
Given these probably have priority over D and incest, and the format is to work D thru each step in her character development, and DMD in this format is finite, imo D will not get to beastiality.
