I highly recommend DMD. There's a lot of twists and turns and even surprising plot twists that make this game really enjoyable. If you've not played this game before, it's very time consuming if you're reading the dialogue. Easily over 2 hours of game play. Unless you skip through the text, but then you'd miss a lot of action.
I love going through the entire story time and again to unlock and see everything. But you know, it's better when there's a nice amount of stuuf to do, not just doing the same three thing over and over.

That's one of the great things about this game.. there's not a lot of repetitive stuff you see over and over. I was hooked from the moment I first played DMD when it was still on Patreon.
I blame D for that though. lol

The only thing is this game, while enjoyable, is slow to develop. If you are looking for instant sex then its not DMD.
Plus Patreon came along about update .16 and fucked everything up.
Fuck Patreon with a spoil of rusty barbwire.

Considering the amount of support they get on BMC, this game still gets almost equal if not more support then the Patreon censored new one (Melody).
Which just baffles me why is this on a 3 month cycle while the new is on a 1 month one.

You don't know what you talking about.He probably is making $20K+ on his Patreon.No way BMC to get even closer to that.About the cycle.He is working one month on DmD and next 2 months on Melody.

Looking at publicly available data:

Logically they have to shift from Patreon very soon, it kills of creativity, and since the start of 2018 their numbers have been declining. Now since his revenue is kept secret from Patreon, we do not know the actual shifts from Month-to-Month (people shifting to lower tiers).
Also it's interesting to note, that so far this year, whenever a new DMD update came out, their Patreon numbers also skyrocketed, while their Melody releases does not bring in new supporters.
Sadly currently BMAC has very limited reporting.
Now if we would just compare the sheer numbers they would come out at around 60% Patreon - 40% BMAC however, considering the cut and the extra Patreon currently takes, and if I would account the burst of patrons during a DMD release, the revised numbers are pretty much 50-50 currently.
Now the main issue MrDots previously said is that they do not see any Patreon competitor, which is starting to shift as

has gone into it's beta stage.I can just hope, but if MrDots is truly the financial genius people say he is, then he already sees this, and will do the right call. He has a growing team, and has to give more attention to their real money maker.
Most likely due to this reason I do not think, that they will end DMD at chapter 3 unless their 3rd project next year will blow up.
But these are jut speculations, I do not know the guy, but he does seem clever considering he knew how to hide their public data on their Domains and use whoisguard.

I think Mr. Dots went overboard early on with too many characters and plot threads, a lot of characters and proposed routes (like sharing D with other men) probably won't get resolved in favor of Elena and D getting a satisfying ending. Ambition is a great thing but you gotta know your limits. I'm sure it sucks for both him and us to have used several updates to set up those characters and not be able to see it all to fruition. Because in hindsight we could have gotten even more time with D and Elena instead of the side characters.
I think at this point we'll get a threesome with D and Elena and then a happily ever after ending. It's good because at least the main characters get closure, but it's really too bad this whole thing with patreon had to happen because it seemed like after D losing her virginity, it was going to open all sorts of group sex opportunities with the Chapter 1 characters. Really would have liked to see daddy and daughter work out there issues with Rachel through some sexual healing.

I just finished Chapter One and man, I really fucking hate Rachel. With that out of the way, I'm glad this is a slow-burner story. Makes the events more... enjoyable instead of just having it thrown into your face all of the sudden.

I don't know if anyone cares but, I texted my old IT guy, who is now in Pittsburgh running his own tech/marketing business between there and NYC, about creating an adult Patreon alternative. He sent me a fairly detailed outline of what it would take.
To do it right, it’d probably be like 1-2 months of all the business setup, legalese, back and forth, marketing planning (between lawyer and founders - 3-5k). 3-6 months to build out with a programmer and designer working together (on the order of 10-15k/month). Then some level of marketing budget to get the word out. You’d need to figure out financial projections on what the cost of loss until sustainability looks like. In general projects like that can be 50-100k upstart pretty quick.

3 months to build would be fast if things are well planned and understood. I say up to 6 because sh*t happens and ideas change as the things come up.
So while doable way out of most people's price range and hard to find investors in something that is porn based. If for no other reason than laws have been changed to prosecute websites for basically anything seen as illegal activity and that scares off money. Only having adult games might not be enough of a financial turn around to make it super profitable.

Not an exact date, but .19 is slated to drop in August. And if the last update (.18) is any indication of a release date, I'd have to say around the end of the month.

I honestly don't see MrDots using Drip. After reading their

, he would most definitely not be permitted on their platform.The following content and activities are prohibited on Drip:
- Pornographic material.
The closest I could find though is

Prohibited Items
We prohibit projects that are illegal, heavily regulated, or potentially dangerous for backers, as well as rewards that the creator did not make.
Although DMD isn't "illegal" per se, the IC is in most countries.
And who would wanna play a watered down version of DMD? I wouldn't. Unless it could be modded. But he's already went that route with Patreon, so I can't see MrDots using this one either.
Yea, at least every other month would be more fair. But my own speculation from reading comments from Mrdots team member Hearsz is that they wanted to cancel DMD, but when they saw how much money they got from BMC and how many Patreons left at first(they lost 1600 Patreons) they continued the game, I think thats also why they have gone back and forth, saying they will or will not finish the game several times. I have a very hard time beliving the game will be finished with this release cycle tho, it would take years, but we'll see, I'm just happy for any update we can get and try to support them any way I can.:noexpression:

I agree 100% with you on that. Yeah, we gotta deal with the longer wait for updates, but dammit is it worth it in the end!
