I honestly love both DMD and Melody having played both all the way through. Now, I know melody started off a lot stronger than DMD but we have to remember Mr. Dots was working on this game all by himself at the begining and trying to get it done quickly, so you can imagine how that would be developing a game like that pretty much alone. Now, when he released melody he had a lot more experience and support so write the story properly from the start. There are things I dislike about melody and DMD but there are a lot more things I love from both of them that make them unique and makes me want to continue playing both as they are released. I do agree that DMD kinda feelt at first like you were just using D for your own sexual gains but as you play chapter 2 and continue to enjoy the game you realize the love in between the two. Also, with melody there is a lot at the beginning with music and music tests that gets tedious due to how repetitive they get, as well as how you often have to guess which choices are the “right” ones for what you want to do in the game. But in the end, melody is an amazing and engaging love game featuring the startbof a career, with many funny references and jokes as well as the revelation that the game takes place in the DMD universe as well. Moreover, DMD is a great game about overcoming the odds, love, and triumphing above all and it is still pretty interesting and has its cute/romantic moments between F and D. Plus they are definetly both some of the best sex games out there!
