I loved the initial concepts and story of the game but it has really fallen off. It's like they stopped doing what they wanted and tried to please everyone, creating a mess in the process.
If I used my rollercoaster analogy I used describing AWAM, DMD is firmly in the bottom of the hill. The apex - the carrot - was a while back now and they can't really keep it going short of having her go wild (which I'm down for but isn't happening). It feels like it'll be over soon and the ending seems to allude to that.
Looking back, I think they should have stuck to their main ideas. The Lucas angle was awesome. So hateable and the reality is that a heel is good for business! The good guy always winning and having no competition is boring, look at any story or sport. The hero's arc involves struggle and MC's only struggle once the game became big was managing all the pussy falling into his lap. Every female he (you) met wanted his dick and his little girl only wanted him and no man could even look at her unless approved.
The early game had men constantly trying to get at her and that's not even counting Lucas.
Then, we have characters like Graham. He just disappeared after days time spent building up a swap scenario. Oh, but you fuck his daughter because of course.
Ryan is the same. He finally fucks Dee if you allow it and with you but you fuck his GF long before that.
The early game didn't have that kind of MC or D. It felt more precarious and dangerous. The end of chapter one seems to be the major breaking-off point. Lucas almost rapes D and instead allowing that (should you have made a litany of wrong choices) they not only stop it (which I'm fine with) but never expand on it beyond that. It happens and the problem is gone forever.
Why? Fans cried about not liking Lucas. To that I'd say "good". As a writer I'd love to make a character the fans absolutely loathed and had a visceral hatred for...ESPECIALLY if he may win! Especially if I keep it going and if you fuck up Lucas may get what he wants! I don't end that, I expand it. 75% of the users telling me they hate a character for his actions and desires would be a GOOD thing. It means you made a compelling scenario that they have emotionally invested into. But here it just goes away because fans complained.
And it's not a fetish thing as it's true for many other characters with less evil intentions who are given tons of time only to disappear. These devs truly seems to make shit up on the fly just to get updates out and it kills good stories, lmao. This is one of them.
