Yeah, a CG gallery is always nice to have too! Though I'm wondering if I got the best or good endings now haha - I'll have to experiment a bit more with the game! I'd tend to say they were "best" endings, but who knows.

Fun thing is that I wasn't interested in Polar at the beginning, but oh dear after learning the truth about him on the day of the play I was so amazed because I didn't expect that at all haha. I'll HAVE to play his route now, even though I didn't plan on doing it at the beginning.

Honestly, the only character I have trouble with is Jaja. I can't say I DON'T like him, because he makes me smile more often than not, but I have so much trouble understanding what he's saying that it distracts me sometimes. I think it's because english is not my language, so when a character speaks in such a weird way it becomes difficult to me. And while I like playing a character that is pretty young and do routes of (significantly) older characters, I tend to be less interested when it's the opposite. I mean, the age gap isn't really big between them per se in this case, but at Jaja's age it's more significant obviously.

As for the art style, well... I'd say the art used fits the story, but it's not exactly the kind of style I'm fond of, basically haha. I tend to like "thinner" styles, if that makes sense. I think it's rude to show art from other games to compare, so I won't do it, but basically I mean something where characters would look thinner. And I don't mean for them to be less muscular or anything, I'm not talking about the physical attributes of one or another per se, but the overall way of representing things. But as I said, I'm not criticizing the quality of the art or the art style chosen for the game - it's simply not the kind of art I prefer. Now, sometimes I make exceptions too, for very stylized art styles but that's another matter alltogether. So yeah, my style would be something delicate and thin, but I wouldn't say I'd WANT something like that from DSG - I'm an artist myself, so I know very well some people will like your style while others less or not at all - because of that I try to be open minded and usually I can enjoy a story even if the art style doesn't matches my tastes. Of course I would have liked it even more if the art was more like I like it, but that's all. 

The only thing I really don't like is when stock sprites are used, because it's hard to really give the characters all the "identity" they deserve. But it isn't the case here so no problem haha
