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

[the66]

Hi there, randomly encountered community.

I'm sorry for not be able to read all 895 pages. I'm also sorry for my english, I'll try my best.

I have this game for some time, it's v0.10, I started to play 3 days ago, after couple of minutes I had no choice but to get sucked in! And somehow I forget to check if the new version is available. Well, damn it, it is. I'm in at the end of day 8 (couples contest). I kinda hate to start all over, but what the hell. Elena just completely blow my mind anyway. So I'll do it.

As for v0.17, I assume that the chapter one is complete, right? 14 days? And that's it?
But what about chapter two? Is it complete? 18 days?
I saw that the patch v0.18 is coming in may/june. So, more days will be added? Or it gonna just fix bugs, add some scenes etc.?
This VN is so amazing when you play it for the first time!

there will be new content, ch2 is far from over

 

[the66]

and welcome to the thread
where is @virtuvoid when he is needed

 

[hillus]

Oh I see. Thanks. I had little hope that ch2 has a finish point already Well then, at the moment I will focus on the ch1, waiting for the end of the ch2.

But if I somehow misunderstood it, and the ch2 has a finish point (not an end game, just end of the ch2 plot), then please, let me know.

 

[the66]

well, well
the gray eminence of doughnuts is back

I don't think I have masturbated to an erotic game in all my life, I cant wait for further updates Such a believable story line and had me gripped from beginning to end.

Lack of good animation is just a detail. I mention it along with many other details, and you've chosen to single out this one. Try searching for "Umemaro" either on this site or on Google. Japanese. Breathtaking animations...
What I mean is this is another instance of DMD cost-cutting which many people (another dev has several posts on this subject in the Melody thread) find unseemly.
What do you think of @RomanHume and his DAST? That was easily the best non-incest game, so very similar to Melody. That game was so good, it convinced me to stay away from non-incest games because without my preferred fetish there can be no immersion. No immersion, no buzz, no funny...

Btw, I really love the pregame character development and the early releases by RomanHume, and it is not just that he is also a genuinely nice guy and a person with early sources of artistic development linked to D&D. He is also the only other person on Patreon I am supporting.

I'll yet again voice my (probably minority) opinion that the less time a dev wastes on sound (usually useless or annoying) and animations (usually bad with a couple of devs being nice exceptions) and instead spends on storytelling and renders, the better.

It depends on the result, but I tend to agree with you, Daughter for Dessert is a good example. There seems to be voice acting in the game and while I don't say that the girl is bad I'd still say it doesn't really work for the situation. Sound is pretty much the same, there's one scene where the MC jerks off and the sound just makes you laugh instead of anything else x'Dx'D

Hmmmm. Not in disagreement. I don’t think I’ve seen any game where the sound or animation made it better in the face of bad storytelling and renders. But when there is a animation done at the right time - a cherry on the top, so to speak - it can be great. Still, animation is something that can be improved in comparison with the other MDot elements.

I agree that story and general art quality are more important, but they have diminishing returns. You can promise to spend twice as long writing story, but you can't really promise to make it twice as good. Twice as long, maybe, but that's a lot less exciting (to me).

 

[IPkiss]

Lol, XC, you are much more a savant in this area than I am. I’d have to look that one up.

Hey It doesn't matter what the difference is he has his cock in between her tits and life is good...(.) (.)

I am anticipating more than that with Brad as - at the end of the last update - MC said Rachel did not like sucking him much and then thought (or wondered) to himself that she like sucking Brad’s better. I am anticipating there will be some kind of Bull Ram vs Bull Ram showdown, whether it is physical or not, with Rachel going toward the victor.

great get into a fight and win a gold digging tramp, hope MC will have the option to reject her.

Does this game save any files outside of the directory from which is run?
Because I just started v0.14.5 and after a minute of gameplay (after inviting D to the flat), I get some scripts error (related to the rewards). I don't know if some older files may interfere. Obviously I unpacked v0.14.5 to the new folder (not into v0.10, which I still have on my HDD)

Is the game near completion? The creator seems to have released another game, so I'm curious if he did it because he's nearly done, or just wanted to do something else at the side.

Mr. Dots did that because Patreon cracked down pretty hard on certain types of adult games, and when the game has the word Daughter in its name... there wasn't much of a fighting chance to keep the game on Patreon.

Melody is the project that is on Patreon and that way they can keep Patrons happy and the money flowing. The unfortunate thing is that DMD is nowhere near complete, probably takes around 10 more updates for Chapter 2 (unless they decide to try and finish it up faster and with fewer updates now). Also read somewhere that Chapter 3 was planned, but not sure what happens to that now that the main focus is on Melody. DMD is still going to updated though, which is good, but have to wait a couple of months for the next one.

That is quite unfortunate. I'm actually waiting for DmD to finish before playing it, so knowing this it seems I have to wait longer.

I agree completely. I have the sound turned off 99% of the time. Especially with porn games, but also with AAA "normal" games, except shooters etc where you need to hear someone sneaking up on you.

I guess animations do add something, but given the time they seem to take, I think it's not worth it.

More time on picture renders and writing also means more story progression!

I've been playing this since they first met and normaly i do skip because i'm lazy to read but for this game i decided to read everything and i can't wait for future updates and hopefully first sex with dad scene

A bit of sexy moaning like in Nenad's Willy D can go a long way towards immersion, and adding a few royalty free background songs or UI sounds neither hurt the game nor the development time. But yeah, complete character voice-over or some kind of narrator are completely unnecessary!

Played today that new Melody game and it seems quick nice.Noticed it's made by MrDotts and was wondering since he's making that game is DmD over,slowed down or business as usual ?
