So many people seem to absolutely love this game. It is compared to DMD as if it's on a similar level. This makes me want to play it. However, every time I try to start a game there is such an over complicated set of events and character introductions it completely turns me off.
First I'm talking to some girl, then I'm throwing a vase or something.. then I'm going to Tim's house, then I'm talking to another girl, then talking to some guy, then some new girl, then this and then that.. then I hold down ctrl some more to see where this is going.. I'm not even invested in the story or setting or anything yet and this game just wants to throw so much exposition at me. It's so unlike DMD's start. They introduce D and you talk things out and then slowly the world builds around that interaction. In this it feels like they are just throwing the whole world at you in the first 2 minutes. There are so many of these games and it is so hard to invest oneself in reading these giant text walls with different characters I don't care about yet.
I was just wondering, since this game is so loved, if anyone would be kind enough to let me know if this trend continues throughout the story or if, like in DMD, things will slow down a bit, develop the characters and give me a chance to actually care about what's going on instead of just throwing "story" at me and drowning me in exposition. I'd really like to play another DMD if this is what this game ends up being.
