Considering that D just formally broke from what was holding back her experiencing the larger world on her own terms, I'd kind of expect her to find interest and attraction in LOTS of new places/people to her refreshed eyes :) . Seems expected, honestly (and, what I thought might be part of the equation for tension that could build into a more complex Chapter 3, honestly . . .) .

The natural routes to explore that we already know are possible don't bother me, even if D suddenly wants to go for a three-way or even her own time to try something/someone new. But, I can see this leading to the issues mentioned above because she is still new and naive to the implications of such things (in her own heart and those of others), I feel.

Of course, this could be even MC getting into something - with D's knowledge , at least initially - and not just her direct desire at play. Maybe her curiosity allows this experimentation and then she starts to feel unexpected regrets, jealousy, envy, etc. that come with being a fully-fleshed individual who just plopped into the world afresh.

. . .

Jeez. Can MrDots put a goal into his fundraising that ensures we see a Chapter 3 if reached, perhaps? So much that can be done with these characters and their settings as they stand today.
There obviously will be an FMF (or several possibilities). What’s coming up are avoidable (for the most part with the right choices) baby steps toward MFM - so I thought I’d put the warning out there so when someone has a fit, we can all say they were warned.

As to Chapter 3 - I won’t put a nail in the coffin, but more likely: in a post Melody game, as we have used younger Koko in Melody, it is very possible (probable?) characters will carry forward from DMD - with more “sexual” use than Koko has in Melody.

So Melody taking place before DMD?
If so then could the boyfriend Koko mentions on the beach in DMD be the MC from Melody? (probably not, but food for thought)

As my review suggests, I love what I've seen so far.
Tho I gotta agree that Lucas is a pretty pointless antagonist so far (the only interesting thing about him is that he knows about the MC and D's relationship but as he is seen as a rapist madman it doesn't do much).

The emotional immersion so far is absolutely top notch. I have to admit, I'm an emotional person, so it might be easy to get to me with such topics, but still, I'm grateful for the quality of the writing. As many of us here, I was just looking for a nice fap material but the story got me so involved I cared much less about the lewd than about F & D's misadventures.
The way that both character's faults, and past makes them desperate. It's not just throwing together the taboo topics and two semi-interesting characters. Their love develops for a reason and if you're a bit open-minded on the topic you can even sympathise with them, because the other person is really what they need.

I won't even go into how much I love D's character, and how it develops. Although there's the "corruption" level, the story doesn't really make it seem like F is actually corrupting her. I mean sure, D loses her innocence, and changes a lot, and grows as a person. But for me it feels like F does all this because he truly loves her and is just trying to help her overcome her shyness, her insecurity and so on.
The only aspect where I'd argue it truly is corruption, is turning her into an exhibitionist - to a point it's okay, but I feel like it's borderline abusing her insecurities and pushing her to act the opposite way.


Currently I feel like there's about 4 ways this could develop. I'm only making my own theories, as all I know about future updates is what I've read from @Jeff Steel's comments on the last few pages.

  1. True corruption. F sees how D changed since they met, and something clicks in him. His "love" turns more into a weird fetish (yeah, we could argue it already is, but I truly feel like currently it's really more about love than corruption). He tries even harder to make D do things he enjoys seeing, doing with her, and he basically turns D into his plaything.

  2. Polygamy or polyamoria based "harem". F's affairs with Jenn, Elena, Martin, Georgina and so on finally see sunlight and slowly D accepts it and as she's exploring her sexuality she accepts the fact that it is possible to have sex with other people while you're in love with your partner (F in this case). Or on the polyamoria path, it's more like the characters develop deeper feelings for each other and they get on with having multiple lovers.

  3. Monogamy path. On this one, after D finds out about F's other affairs she becomes jealous, and mad, and F has to make a choice. Of course if F's been loyal this would play out differently, but it'd focus mainly on the relationship between the two of them, and perhaps some jealousy and intrigue from the other characters.
    This could end up in their forbidden marriage even.

  4. D's discovery of self. Over the next couple of weeks D becomes more and more confident about herself, thanks to F's encouragements and as she discovers her own needs and fantasies she could also realize that she felt that way for F because he was the only person that gave her the feeling of security and made her feel being loved. She could slowly start experimenting and could even find her special one.
    I know this one is a bit dark, but kind of a realistic outcome as well, as even she mentioned that perhaps the thing between F and her would only continue until she finds her own "real love".


On a side note, I would love to see the possibility for her to find another career instead of modelling, as she mentioned painting for example during the museum visit. I know modelling can be used perfectly as a corruption tool (perfect fit for my 1st point above), but having the option to not to do so, and have another alternative instead of just missing out on some content would be awesome.

I'm just throwing some ideas at the wall and see what sticks, and also create some discussion (or perhaps give some creative boost for our dear writers :p), so feel free to add your own thoughts.

And once again, a big thank you for all the developers and all the people who made this experience possible! I hope we can see a lot more to come. :)

I wonder how much changed will be Melody and Sophia in DMD timeline.
Somewhere around 10 years or so. (8-15 years is my guess with leaning to around 10-12 years.)
In "Melody" Koko is very young and only about 18 months into her career of singing and in DMD she is older and with a lot of tatoo's.

No problem both games have huge variety of girls.No doubt you have your favorites:)
D, E and J for DMD and just M in Melody. (I don't really care for Sophie or any of the other women in Melody.)

Thanks for turning something personal that never was, but to get to your points: I never said that DMD's story isn't perverted, or that it's not a sick thing by general standards.
I'm in no way trying to pretend I'm a gentleman, or even a good person to begin with. I was just expressing my enthusiasm for something I like, but of course there's always someone who's trying to create arguments out of thin air. You really don't have something better to do with your time now, do you?

I was praising the writers for the depth of their work, because instead of going the fast and easy way of creating a generic porn-fantasy, they added layers. I don't even know why do you have to point out on an adult forum that there's controversial things in a game, but for each their own. I'm not gonna continue this argument.
Have fun mate.
You offered some great thoughts on the characters and plot possibilities and seem to have perceived much depth that others (e.g., myself) have taken some time to derive, if at all. Thanks for posting (and don't bother with the silly, immature trolls.)

I also think a 10 years because of this image in Dmd 19 at the club (during his trip to the countryside) where we see an ad on the wall for the Melody concert and that the woman at the table and Melody's aunt

Thanks, I realize Martin was floated (by you, perhaps?) not long ago and that seems OK . . . but, I honestly see the reluctant Graham or even someone tangential and just a flirtacious what-the-hell such as Jennifer's sex shop date as possible. Martin's dalliance with Maria just made him seem, well ... normal in the sense that he was apparently taking what was offered (if her commands were anything to go by) and so he'd probably be a reliable sex partner but doesn't inspire me much otherwise. As a slight contrast, Graham has been in a similar relationship and might offer more perspectives for D and MC even while they're in the middle of group sex, but in a supportive and fun fashion at the same time. A sort of random "Jennifer's date" encounter could go "eh" or worse, might even offer friction in their relationship that could lead to more interesting wedges for exploring. Because D's judgement simply won't be the best at this spot in time, so there's much for her to learn from experiences - better and worse.

As for the next game being post-Melody and not post-DMD, any characters in such a game would seem to not include D and MC (as a pairing) unless there were plans to launch outside of Patreon. I guess that could imply various possibilities, such as D and MC going separate ways for such a VN or that MrDots' current testing of Subscribestar is not so much for DMD growth as a backup or future platform for post-Melody. I'd tend to doubt the latter though: they seem to be doing fine with Patreon at the moment (but, what do I know?)
