VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Dating My Daughter [Ch. 1-4 v1.01] [MrDots Games]

Went from Dating my daughter to... Swinging with my daughter. The Devs are clearly bored at this point, adding random fetishes this late in the game only proves that. As a result I’ve seen the quality drop off significantly whether it’s the writing or dialogue.

The Father behaves like a teenager at times and the daughter comes off as slow. I’d rather games like this get wrapped up while it’s still good instead of being milked and drugged out.

Loved it until CH3. Its been ruined for me. Even when you try your hardest to avoid all sharing paths there are bugs that still pop up a dialog here and there telling you that D fucked some other dude. I will not be playing the rest, or any more of MrDots games. Pulled my 1.5 year sub on patreon. Only those who are into multi-dick sharing shit will be able to enjoy DMD after the end of CH2

This was one of the first adult games I played due to its popularity and I tuned in regularly, but after playing through more games this began to look worse and worse in comparison to its competition.

Pros:

* Plenty of story if you're into that.
* Quite long at this point, so plenty of hours to be had if starting a new game.
* Good variety of scenes.
* Some variety in the cast of characters and their builds.

Cons:

* No audio.
* The dialogue tends to ramble on.
* Some of the characters look too young. Fine if you're under 18 and playing, but I'm not so it was distracting.

I can't list it as a con since the title is literally DMD, but I wish games like this would make an easy toggle to include the word "Step" or remove the incest angle entirely without the dialogue being thrown off completely.

I followed this for a long time because it was all I knew about for a while in the popular adult game category, but I was never comfortable with the direct incest angle and after playing some better games with better story, animations and quality audio, there's not enough in this game to make me want to continue following it.

Fairy Godmother of all Dad and D incest games.

---PROS---
-First of its time and the best to ever do it.
-Done well, Real life incest is disgusting. Real life tentacle porn probably is as well but thats why we have games like this which suspend belief while at the same time gives you a hot character getting D'd down.
-Speaking of Ds. The D is one of the sexiest DAZ assets ever. I hope someone one day decides to use her asset in SFM or Blender. Mr Dots if you read this, (Never will) if you made a full length scene of the D with a synopsis of the game I'd pay big money for that as well as all the fans.
- Followed this game since it was still getting updates on Chapter 1 and let me tell you, all of the setups so far from then on have translated and been fulfilled. Mr. Dots does not give empty promises and will flesh out his endings and pay offs everytime. Great Dev
- Interacts with his fans on every platform including his own website. Very Consistent even when he's working on other games.
- Drastic noticeable improvement as far as graphics since the first game although they were already spot on.
- Very nice continuity and teasing. I hate games where you finally bang the Waifu but in the next scene still can't sleep in the same bed or get a game over screen for seeing her in the shower naked just after banging her. Its the pinnacle of poor design and bad writing in my book. Dont worry about that with this game. She slowly corrupts but when she corrupts, its permanent. Dev still hasnt run out of ideas or sex positions. Something an up and coming Dev should take note of. Remember a certain scene in this game towards the end of Chapter 2 thinking "Well, hes going to run out of ideas." As of this review hes at the end of Chapter 3. Fantastic.
-Some of the sexiest scenes ever. One in particular happens on a certain beach the D at some point in time teases you. During that scene you make a triumphant return and teasing is completely out the window. Shows Character development overtime and great writing.
- Memorable characters. This can be gaged by whenever you see this asset you automatically think of the D from this game. Just like when you see the MCs CoWorker you think of Liam from another game. Bravo
- Squirting and Cumshots are the best on this site. No Spoilers.
- Slow Slow Slow but no ridiculous grind. You do have to pick the right choices but its not that much of a chore and there are no POINT and CLICK or stupid Sandbox which is what so good about Mr. Dots. Its a Linear narrative but it has multiple outcomes. Other Devs again should take heed unless its a game with tons of girls and you want to chose which girl you want to have scenes with first. When sandbox is done like that I have no complaints. This game has a variety of different girls to have sex with but its done at the Devs intended pace.
- Dev made modifications along the way after fan feedback. No more gameover screens etc which I think for this game was a major hindrance initially.
- Choices port over for the first 2 Chapters. Very Nice

---CONS---
- Too much internal monologue and "thinking". Its a staple of any game for Mr. Dots and his signature as well but not really my taste. I feel as though it makes scenes drag on far too long.
- We gotta talk about the D. Man oh man she's smoking hot but Geez LOUIS is she written with the mind of a 2 year old. Even her dialogue is cringe. I know shes supposed to be naive and virginal but not braindead. "Is That a...Penis!!" C'mon man. Kudos to the Character Design because it still doesnt kill a boner.
- The second creepiest grooming plot of all time. Its a combination of the Ds terrible stupidity and the MCs relentless pursuit that makes this game seem like a grooming tutorial. Some scenes most definitely some like something Chris Hanson would question the MC on.
- I hate the lolis in this game. Personal preference. Not appealing in the least but luckily theres an option to skip and is made up with voluptuous MILFs and slutty Swingers. If Elena got a redesign my opinion of her would drastically change. I LOVE how her character is written and I LOVE her characters dialogue. I hate the design. Another game I wont mention has a perfect petite girl who is also a gamer. If you could take that characters design, change her hair color to Elenas hair color, and give her Elenas writing (Petite slutty women do exist) she'd be a top 10 Waifu. She'd be better than the D.
- Sex scenes dialogue from the MC is terrible
- Too many shots of the MC cock. Only time we need to see it is in sex scenes or during points where D is watching him. Other games are guilty of this as well. It wont break the game if you get rid of these scenes. Perfectly fine without a flaccid penis urinating scene every in game day.

Play this from the beginning. Even with all its flaws this game is a masterpiece.

Thank you! A realy deep story and a good subplot. Very beautiful girls, nice pictures and good animated scenses. This is definitely one of the best [VN]&[Ren'Py] games and the reason why I became a big, big fan of this kind of gaming! <3

The game looks fun at the start with a hot daughter and an interesting corruption system. But god damn is this game slow to get to the good parts. A lot of that is due to the uninteresting, and frankly annoying, dialog. For the first chapter, most of the dialog is just the MC going "uhh, but that's my daughter I don't know if I should fuck. uhh but im so horny for her." Like, we get it. The father isn't sure if he wants to sleep with his daughter, but everyone playing the game is sure so get on with it.

The daughter is 18 and being so naive is also odd. With Elena and Jennifer(wtf is up with her head!) looking like literal teenagers, you can tell the creator was going for an underage girl thing but just said they were 18.

The only good thing I can say about this game are that the animations are pretty good, although short. And then some (Olivia and Georgina) character models look nice.

3/5: Play if you're interested in the story more than just jerking off, but in my opinion the story isn't very well written anyways.

The problem with this game for me i think is that all the teasing/instrospection/convincing/second guessing take way too much time and often gets in the way, literally, of things. It is a fantasy novel but theres too much bullhist when the situation should be driven by feelings.
I know from experience that the rush and the drive when this kind of forbidden acts happen, makes it really hard to find real motives to not go all the way, and i consider myself a patient cold headed rational thinking person.
Even i coldnt help myself from perpetrating disgusting acts in the eyes of God.
The Mc in this one puts my rational thinking to the ground and spits on it. he is a cold blooded sonofabitch.

And that makes things desperately predictable and boring. I dont think the pay off actually pays off since renders arent actually anything spectacular in 2020.

But if you can take this stuff, the game grants many hours of gameplay.

Interesting on how the father/daughter relationship evolves in general, but it's long in a kinda boring way : it seems like every character is kinda stupid in this game, conversations are boring and take ages with no humour, cheesy politeness - you feel like you are watching some androids with poor IA evolve in a sandbox.

Most of the girls look like teenagers or even dolls (WTF Jennifer). Hopefully, graphics for others like Georgina, Cassandra, Olivia are better.
The dautgher herself lacks so many facial expression - from on the start to the end of a discussion she can stay like a motionless doll.

I went on until chapter 3... but gosh, going again through a "restaurant conversation" with the same kinda of nonsense.

Compared to current hype games, this one lacks spirits, reflections and ... fun. It's not fun. It just rolls on like a machine.

Animations are getting better though. And at least, the developers made some efforts for the fashion style ... sometimes.

Ok, I think DMD is good for the following reasons:

Firstly, it is an interesting, deep and beautiful romantic story described in the script.
It is also quite long (I played in chapters 1-3 for about 5 days), which allows you to immerse yourself in the world of the game and experience a deeper understanding and interest in the plot. There are also numerous ramifications in the game that allow the player to make a decision, and ultimately get what he actually deserves according to his own choices ("good" or "bad"). Therefore, I could say that this particular game comes out a little more into reality than some others in the genre. In addition, frankness is captivating in the game, when both deviations and romantic motivations of the characters are given "as is", without blurring, and with knowledge of the subject, and are doubly appropriate. Finally, the beauty and interestingness of the characters is matched by a good graphic design, especially the character D, and the ramifications are quite adequate animation scenes. In addition, the plus of the game - it has been developing for more than 3 years, its age and popularity testify to the value of its content.

I see very few of the shortcomings - a couple of insignificant discrepancies between actions and subsequent dialogues for the whole game, and some ambiguity in the implementation of the choice of some branching paths (the latter, however, seems to go away, as work on the game continues)

Played this when it first got out few years ago, and even then, when there were a lot less renpy games, it was laughably bad, i tried it again few days ago and now even more so.

Story is boring and uninteresting , writing and dialogue are not terrible, but they are awfully mind-numbingly dull and unbelievable, sex scenes are not written any better, they are short and as arousing as watching baseball.

Daughter behaves like she has autism (or mental impairment), other characters are little bit better in that regard. Renders are also bad, with weird proportions, especially daughters friend Elena with wrecking ball for a head.

I would rather read IKEA instructions manual, than try to play this ever again.

I stopped playing after the first chapter.

Cons:
1) Models look like generic teenagers (14-15 years old)
2) Story is mediocre (not the worse but not the best)
3) Way too long game.
4) Huge limitations set on the mc
5) You can miss a lot without the walkthrough

Pros:
1) Well....not much....at least the mc is not acting like a horny retarted teen (not the greatest mc,but I've seen worse).
2) Potential.This game could've been made a lot better and with an exciting story.
3) Interesting coruption progress (but kinda slow)

Honestly, it is a good game and I would have given it five stars two updates earlier. However, the disappointment from all the side relationships forcing lesbian and sharing/threesome content in order to experience those characters is very great. It is very restricting and offputting to a player like me that wants to experience the well-built characters without being forced into something unwanted. They had started off with a lot of potential, and minus the merging of their paths, are still good characters. The earlier updates were great in this respect, but for various reasons, they dropped them completely for repetitive and restricting content.

Still a good game and I am sure others will still enjoy it.

I love this game, (im playing chapter 1 at the moment) though it has some severe issues. I played for hours, everything was going fine and suddenly...game over, your daughter hates you know. It came out of nowhere. Turns out, after looking at a walkthrough, i missed a choice somewhere, even made the wrong choice somewhere else, the walkthrough even says dont chose this option, ever. How the hell was i supposed to know that? Things you have no way of knowing that its going to lead to a game over. I can understand a game over if the MC is a huge dick in the game and make several obviously bad choices, but when seemingly everything is going fine its incredibly jarring. Its weird, i dont like to look at walkthroughs, but this game forced me to and i hate that.
Other than this, the game is absolutely amazing, worth playing, though keep a walkthrough at hand, and maybe save in a different slot at every seemingly major decision, to avoid playing the game from the start all over again.

One of the best games on F95. The girls are hot, the story is interesting, and it is very long. You can spend hours going through every character scene and finding more to do. My favorite part about this game is the side characters interactions with D and the MC. Elena is one of the best models I have ever scene as well.

One of the best game out there.
CG is average & dull , If apply lighting effect like "BADick" or "Milfy city" then it will be awesome.
character development is very good.
there is only few character to deal with, be happy if there is other random girl to sex with.

the sens of DMD is very interesting,so i hope that the rest of chapters will be more exiting than the others. i really like the scene of foursome (F,D,,Graham and olivia) but it must be more animating. maybe with martin it will done like we hope. hout about D with more dirty talk and very experienced sexual and hardly open to hot experiences because she is very nauyhy when she do this.
thans and exuse my english.

Enormously ambitious project, a true labour of love. Veery much a slow burn so don't play this one unless you're truly invested in the concept. The characters are likeable, the progression is fairly believable, art looks good. Stay away if you're looking for a quick fap, dive in if you want to immerse yourself.

this game is great. the Art the animations, and over all story is great. the dev sure has taken his time on this game to make it a good story of love and sex. The dev has made the charactor story lines a bit cheesy at times but in a good way. The girls very in range of looks and body portions. i mean that by the fact that not every charactor has huge tits for no reason just to have huge tits. I dont get the fact of game makers focusing on that only to make the girls so called hot. this game takes all aspects of a girls body and gives the player an option of what kind of girls you mess around with. who you fuck and how you fuck. my fav girl is the best friend Elena. short and sexy. loving and wild. shes my fav hands down.

The good:
============
- Tons of content. The 3 chapters combined are likely one of the longest adult VNs ever released. (but there's a flipside: See "The bad")
- Good writing 90% of the time.
- Believable setting(s) - neither too mundane nor over the top
- Servicable graphics. Lighting isn't great, so all chars have the usual 3D-plastic look. However, the models themselves are pretty good and well posed - well, aside from the MC's ridiculously oversized dick, that looks more like a giant dildo.

The bad:
============
Soft-railroading. Lots of it. Constantly. All the fucking time. What do i mean by "soft-railroading"? Well, hard railroading is, when you force the play to make decisions which he absolutely doesn't consent to. Soft-railroading IMO is, when you leave important decisions to the player, but the MC and/or other chars behave in ways that don't make sense to the player.

Soft-railroading can for example happen, when the MC has a personality the player simply cannot identify with, and the game offers no ways to tweak the player's attitude. In other words: Hard-railroading is problem with consent and decisionmaking, while soft-railroading is a roleplay and plot-problem.

Enough talking about the bush, here's the problem: The player is supposedly a middleaged father, but he thinks, talks and behaves like an angsty, insecure and shy teenager. If that isn't ridiculous enough, the daughter is supposedly 18 years old, but acts like a naive and clueless 6-year old. Oh, and she knows what male masturbation is, even though she's never seen a man naked, but she doesn't know what female masturbation is, and is completely oblivious of her own body. This disconnect with reality is then amplified, by EVERY SINGLE OTHER CHAR in the game being promiscous up the wazoo, so the PC and daughter look completely ridiculous in comparison.

And that brings me to the flipside of there being so much content: 75% of that content is just the MC and daughter having endless monologues in their heads, about their selfdoubts and insecurities. And since the game-interface is the usual VN-style, where you can only read one line at a time, skipping over all that angsty whining turns into a clickfest, that is sure to take a good chunk outta your mouse's lifetime.

Conclusion:
============
Good production dimished by bad character-design. If the game were shorter, i'd give it a 3/5. But with there being so much content and so many scenes and varied settings, that would be unfair compared to other much shorter games. So i'm going with 4/5.
