Hearsz and MDots are the only two that can actually put the dialogue into the program, so ultimately, they are arbiters on what goes in. Technically I can make edits on the tail end when the dialogue and code gets loaded onto GitHub. I also must say that Hearsz has gone further with Martin in some areas than I would have...such as Martin cumming in Dee, and almost all of the bbc language.
Hey I'm curious what was the thinking behind adding feelings and love into the sharing route? That does not seem to be characteristic of the sharing/swinging fetish. Of all the sharing/swinging games I've played, the only feelings (like pleasure) that matter is the MC and FMC. (But mostly the MC, i.e. you) The 3rd character, male or female, is usually use like a human sex toy for that end.

However in DMD, it's the opposite happens where the pleasure and relationship of the FMC (Dee) and 3rd person (Martin) that seems to be the focus. This (and others but lets focus on this for now) is something I expect more in NTR games. Its almost like theres 2 writers stitching the story together rather than combining it. Like writer 1 goes full steam ahead that will naturally result in NTR and then writer 2 reads it. Then instead of altering the story, just continues the writing by reigning it back in because "we don't do NTR here" rule. I hope you know this just pisses everyone off because no one really get what they want.

Now with all that being said, I have a theory that you guys are doing that on purpose to create controversy which results in lots of arguments. More people talking/arguing about it would mean more people trying out the game. I have talked to Mr Dots team over the years on here or discord and I'm impressed by how much work and research you guys do. So its hard for me to believe you would not see this obvious ahead of time and push out something this sloppy...

What is the time difference between DMD, Melody, and SL? I know Melody is early into Koko's career and happens before DMD. And obviously SL occurs sometime after Melody as Xienne and Sophia get married. But how far apart are DMD and SL?

Well, we know that Kristina / Church Girl styled herself after Daughter in her teens and she is now 18. So I'd say three years after may be a good guess.

The BBC Dialogue is a bit much at times.
The MC in DMD is basically at this point the vehicle for the player to have access into the DMD world.
D going off with Martin is interesting. F just sitting and waiting would be a negative for the VN and would probably not be well received by the players. If D goes off F should have another option he is pursuing, say a date with Cassandra, or going out on a date with a new girl he and D recently met. Possibly a girl who they met at the club in the next update. In this way it's a function of their open relationship not F sitting on the sidelines during the D+Martin sex event.
Dee has been loyal to F as guys are concerned, not so much with her girlfriends though F ruts with every girl he meets. In the Martin route, Dee loves Martin as well as her dad, F should really talk to Dee about her relationship and feelings for Martin. In the scheme of things, players have already chosen their preferences.
"The BBC Dialogue is a bit much at times." In my experience no one really talk that way, it's a stereotypical invention.

You are right... the players have chosen...
Though even with that in mind Dee loving Martin makes still no sense... they barley know each other and have had very few interactions.
Physical attraction? Maybe... Love? Certainly not. That's why people complain. It feels shoehorned in.

Yeap. It was definitely rushed and just felt awkward.

I mean, its not like the Daughter is a deep character to begin with.

I mean none of them are... this is still a porn game and not Shakespeare but if I have to put my suspension of disbelieve to 1000% then something with the writing is off.

I'm tired of all the categories you have to deal with these days in the case of Martin. What's with this "polyamory bbc cuck NTR whatever" shit ? Couldn't you just write exciting scenes with Martin without thinking too much about how it shall be categorized beforehand ? Because that's all we need. I don't care about the "categories/niches" I care about is it hot or not.

Jeff Steel : I'd like to know if that kind of thinking was in play when the "super cautious" and ultimately frustrating and boring swingers club scene in last update was made. It could have been great but every paths the scene hinted at resulted in nothing, and some paths were not even hinted at all. And I'm not even talking of the ridiculous "Dee's not Graham's type" shameful excuse so that almost nothing happens between them.

This scene was the worst disapointment I had with the game recently. It should have been 3 paths :
1\Path for insecure teenagers, the one we had

2\Middle-Ground path : D jerks off the guy who wants to fuck his wife then reunites the couple while participating a bit in preliminaries and then leaves them alone

3\Chad path : Graham suddenly becomes a realistic character and like any 40+ straight male would jump at the opportunity of sex with such a bombastic teenager as Dee, even if "she's not exactly his type". So then a lot of swapping happens between D, G, F and G's daughter, and maybe a final orgy scene including the shy married couple.
Order has been restored, everyone is happy, wars & Covid stop all over the world, and NVIDIA sells 3090's for 200$.
I pumped out a lot of ideas on this issue, primarily revolving around a smaller run swap event. The key idea and “Chad/wife” parts, for example came from articles and real world examples. I personally didn’t mind Dee didn’t go all out full swap, but would have preferred more “observers” of he by other guests which puke have turned the scene into a heavy exhibition event. Of course any scene with multiple bodies starts to increase render time at an increasing rate. This is none of the scenes that have been considered for a revisit at the end.

Look at Olivia/Graham as a swap path, and Martin more of a polyamory path. Neither results in ntr but one results in more of a bf/gf couple result (Matin) than the other (Graham).

I'm with you about more people watching, at least that would have been something. Still didn't change my mind about Graham's behaviour. This really is a bad joke for me. As for the rendering time, I understand, but by now, including the money from his other games, Dots should have 3 or 4 3090 GPU or even better Pro GPUs. It's not like it's a massive amount of money compared to what he made in several years. I make far less than he does and I have one 3090 and several less powerful computers and GPUs.
It's regrettable that this scene was not selected to be revisited. I don't remember about a scene that needed it more.

Sure, but if we boil it down, with her Father she already fell in love with a man she barely knew.

True but at least her father is the MC, D is the FMC and Martin... is a side character... and barley in the game to begin with.

If I said otherwise, I apologize. This is a scene Hearsz has talked about revisiting.
