I just want to say, there are three types of games out there right now:
Type A:
Beautiful girls getting into really hot sexual situations, little story, (ie: fapfest)
Type B:
Average girls getting into normal everyday situations, sometimes sexual and sometimes not, really good and compelling storytelling.
Type C:
Boring characters who talk on and on and on, with little interaction that makes a difference, (your only choice is: "Fuck Her", or "go to bed", or "Nevermind").
Mr Dots' VNs fall somewhere in Type B.
DMD has some average-looking characters with some really great storytelling and situations, some sexual, and some not. The cliffhanger at the end of chapter 2 was pretty awesome and made me excited for chapter 3.
Melody has some really nice-looking characters and has some interesting storytelling and situations. The cliffhanger at the end of part 1 was kind of expected and didn't have the impact it could have, so I'll just wait out the storm to see where it goes. I think there should be more sexual tension with the girls and MC, after all, this IS an adult game. We need a character more like Elena in Melody, (I don't mean a flat-chested girl that resembles a 13-year-old), Nor a petite 20-something that has tits bigger than her torso. The red-headed neighbor is a good choice, who really needs to come out of her shell, a night where the MC ravishes her is what she really needs, at least it's what I need). THAT would get the juices flowing
