So, now that Chapter one is finished and the plot holes are supposedly filled in, I'd like to ask what the point of chapter one was. Sure, we met Daughter, grew closer, became "lovers" and then Daughter and side content (Elena) got taken away. But, what was resolved in this chapter?

Because, as it stands, you could jump into chapter 2 and not really miss a thing. The story could easily be, I love my daughter and I'm going to get her back. We don't need to see Chapter 1 to understand that. We haven't really had a strong connection between F and D. They've just been mostly bumming about on holiday. The hospital scene, after F gets punched, probably remains as the one genuine moment that connects the two characters.

Every chapter of a story is meant to resolve something, bringing us closer to an inevitable end. Yet, it feels like we got more problems without solving any old ones; presumably Lucas isn't going to be a problem in Europe. But, that's not a resolution to the threat he posed, that's just forgetting he's there. It's the RWBY style of story-telling, create more problems and make them bigger; so that your audience forgets about the old problems. Now, I don't think dating my daughter is as bad as RWBY (I don't hate characters I'm supposed to like, in DMD). But, I do feel that Chapter one has been a huge waste of time.

Will I still continue DMD? Of course, because humans are magpies and plot intrigue is something shiny. But, intrigue isn't development and that's going to hit very hard if the following chapters are anything like this one.

If you have not read this yet you should do so because it may answer some or all of your questions.

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't answer any of my questions or worries for the future of dating my daughter. We are, mostly, in the same position at the end of chapter one as we were at the start. A link to a post that tells me about the 0.14 update and tells me not to worry about my saves, doesn't give me any answers or soften my criticisms.

If Chapter 2 is to be good, something needs to be resolved, our characters need to grow as a result of that resolution and they need to have scenes that believably deepens their relationship. Basically, everything that wasn't in chapter 1. Because, the Father is still an passive agent in his own story and Daughter is still naive and that's why anyone could easily start from chapter two and not miss a thing.

Elena might actually be the only one who was shown development as a character, as we saw her take an active role in the relationship and it was revealed that she has parent issues that drives her actions. Even then, what we saw of her wasn't enough.

The reward renders are awesome!
Yesterday I replayed the game, while making some different choices than my original play through. So in a way, it had new content for me that I didn't check before hehehehe, like part of the Georgina route

@dartis I disagree, i feel that chapter 1 was essential to the ongoing story. The personality of each character is established, we see how they interact with each other, their motivations, how exactly F and D went from not having seen each other for 10 years to kissing, fondling and masturbating each other.

Would you really be satisfied if at the start of chapter 2 there was just a blurb saying "you are <name> your relationship with your wife ended badly and she left the country, taking your daughter with her. After no contact for 10 years your daughter showed up at your door. Over the course of 2 weeks you went from being her father to being her lover. Now your ex has taken her away again, how will you get her back?"

Simply reading a background isn't the same as experiencing it. We've now seen HOW the relationship developed, we're invested in the characters.

Chapter One complete? Time for a new playthrough I think.

Btw thanks for the torrent link whoever's responsible for that, it's something all games of this size would benefit from.

Can some divide the game in 2 o 3 parts on mega please.
I can transfer only 2 giga a day.
Hi HarryJackson,

You could register on MEGA and download it using the MegaSync App. Therefore you'll have no issues - that is, if you want to? I am doing exactly that and had no issues with downloading the content. Just a suggestion :)

BTW anyone knows how we proceed from here with chapter 2 on this site?
New thread like Artifact series and Incest Story or continue with this thread like My sister Mia and Lida's adventures.
And do we have idea if we can start chapter 2 without playing chapter 1?

Not entirely clear on the last part. Mr Dots said after chapter 1, at the end of the credits the game will automatically log your choices so when you start chapter 2 you can just continue. I don't know yet if you'll be able to do a randomly generated start for chapter 2. I can PM him on patreon and ask if you want.

I can't find myself believing that. Daughter's traits are naivety and innocence. That's all. She could be replaced with a sexy lampshade and it wouldn't make a difference and while we saw F and D go from complete strangers to fondle buddies. I didn't see anything that made that process believable, F just tricked D throughout the entire game and sometimes felt bad about things progressing too quickly.

Also, I'm not saying that we shouldn't have Chapter 1, I'm saying you could remove chapter 1 and be none the wiser. Why would the text blurb you proposed would be at the start of chapter 2 be any different to the blurb at the start of chapter 1? Because it's a sentence longer?

Ideally, this is where multiple redrafts would come in. But, a major folly of having patreon finance your game, is that you can't lose momentum. So, in order for chapter 2 to be worth anything, it needs to be done right the first time around.

Mr. Dots needs to constantly be asking how every new update is necessary to the end goal of Chapter 2. What do our characters accomplish, how do they change and is that accomplishment/change useful?

@dartis You have some good points. I personally am happy with the way things are progressing, but I can see how chapter 1 could be viewed as superfluous. I prefer to see how things develop myself rather than just be told it as it helps me develop more of an attachment to the characters. But thats my viewpoint of things and its no more right or wrong than anyone else's.
