Hm... I like Balasque's design... must have been that long, draconic tail :3

The more I get to know Derek and his family, the more I like this guy. Probably even more than Cove (Sorry!)
While his story is not as much as Cove's I really enjoy it. I like how adorable he is and his family. They're so sweet and welcoming towards our character. One of the things I like when we get to know them all is that Liz has someone else to hangout with. I feel like while we have Cove in the main storyline, Liz practically only hangs out with Shiloh, until he's gone. And later, she has no one, considering we never really see her friends and Lee is not around that much. I feel like this is especially true when Nico said he couldn't talk to anyone about feeling left out as the last to grow up, but in this DLC, he got Liz too~
I'm pleasantly surprised how well Liz is getting along with Jorge and Nico, considering their only interaction is only in one Step 2 moment. It feels as if by being friends or dating Derek, Liz gets two more younger siblings (in addition to Cove). I really enjoy the trouble trio's antics~
I wish we get a little more about Derek though. While he does have a happy ending, part of his future remains unclear. Besides potentially moving away or in with us, he still doesn't know what he wants to do in his life, whether he wants to keep doing sports as a career or something else. And that worries me a bit about him
I know there's not going to be more Derek-related content, but I wish there is a little, additional further story after Step 4. Maybe an engagement or wedding too~
And also I feel like he and Baxter should have five CGs instead of four. Seems like a good number and I'm pretty sure there are a few scenes in Baxter DLC later that warrant one more additional CG. For Derek, I feel like there should be a CG for him in the waterpark
And if I may also offer one more suggestion, even if it's late, the waterpark could use some tweak. Maybe, instead of not being able to visit the place when we choose to help Mr. Suarez with his business luncheon, the final date could have Derek take us there (if we choose to date him since the beginning of Step 4)? So that it feels like there's a reward for helping his dad. And Derek instead take us to boardwalk if we choose to go to waterpark first and not starting as his partner since the beginning. I don't know, but I feel like it's more interesting that way
In general, I really like this DLC. And Derek as a person. Thanks!
