#sorry for all the liveblog posts lately im on winter break and i have No social life at all

[blookmallow]

so i finally started......the Dad Game.........

let the daddening begin 

im on the title screen and im already crying i wasnt expecting a thEME SONG 

this is also unsettling to play after going through doki doki literature club im gonna be subconsciously mistrustful the entire time lmao

what do you mean, i am dead 

i love my daughter already 

then i spent like half an hour on the customization screen bc thats the kind of person i am 

Chin Head 

i am IMMENSELY glad that there’s lipstick but theres nnnot a whole lotta options here 

i decided to create a Character rather than trying to make like. “me as a dad” or w/e so uh. heres my fuckin. Dad OC, i guess 

his name is wren calloway and i am Absolutely In Love with him just from the character screen help me 

he also accidentally ended up looking almost EXACTLY like my headcanon cecil palmer, but. uh. ANYWAY

im almost definitely gonna go for damien because of course i am but im gonna like. see how the plot plays out/go with whatever options/responses i like and see where things end up, i think thats more fun than just targeting a particular character completely 

god look at him tho? i love him,

hhhhHUUUOH MY DAUGHTER’S CUTE AS FUCK TOO 

I LOVE HER!! im also reading all her lines in vanellope’s voice currently, but :’)

oh!! i get to decide my own backstory details

im Definitely goin gay all the way 

[sobbing] i lov e my daughter,

:( what happened to my husband,

understandable 

HE ll o

im not into a whole lotta dudes but this game’s character designs are A+++

he’s.......................cute,,

hes #relatable already i love him

i specifically made A Character bc i knew trying to make it “me” would get weird but so far hes basically me anyway :’ ) 

i hate how much i love this dad oc i might legitimately use that character design somewhere in the future 

baNANAS? in BANANA BREAD? the wonders never cease 

B) 

half of this is just me sobbing about how much i love amanda but listen,

also i love amanda’s relationship with her dad?? they’re cute,,

and like....ive never had anything like that with my dad? i dont know. what its like to have a dad you can joke around with and have fun with and be snarky at each other with. its nice to see, i guess

honestly i expected this to just be kinda silly all around but i was rly into the goth dad and decided to give it a shot but so far this is.... really wholesome honestly it’s less Anime Dating Sim But It’s Dads and more like. a choose-your-own-adventure story about a gay dad doin life and taking care of his kid. its good. as a gay who’s really fuckin tired of compulsory heterosexuality in 90% of every game ever, it’s good

i also love that this game is. there are no hetero options here. There Is Only One Step And It IS Gay 

i mean you can say your previous partner was a woman but. you’re still dating dads. ur bisexual anyway

i just wanna date my own character tbh 

oh m y  G O D 

i m gonna cry 

i won the Dad Battle tho 

also he’s not my type but im glad theres a cute chubby dad,

there’s pretty decent diversity so far here? not a Ton of body type diversity but still, we’ve got several rly good POC characters, i think i heard damien’s canonically trans? not bad at all

ah. it’s You

i don’t know anything about what actually happens in this game at all but i saw something about some weird scrapped cult ending where this dude turns out to be a cultist/serial killer or something and honestly i see it l m a o

i dont even know what it Is about him he just immediately unsettles me 

local gay forgets what words are around every man he sees 

oh

well FUCK

what happened :’( i want to know 

why are his kids like this i feel like they’re going to appear at the end of my bed in the middle of the night and just stare at me unblinking for hours

oh my fucking god what is going on with this family 

the girl’s name is christiana or something too 

that’s horrifying thanks 

smooth

im physically recoiling every time this man speaks i know we were apparently College Buddies but its not happenin bud 

absolutely not, goodnight 

apparently i literally slept for the ENTIRE day but alright 

EYY GOTH KID

HI IM GONNA BE YOUR STEP DAD SOMEDAY PROBABLY

low rent gerard way 

i think he was reacting to “oh my god the room i needed was right here all along, that little SHIT” but im choosing to believe that was his reaction to the teacher 

ok flirting with the cute english teacher is also VERY tempting 

im definitely between mat / hugo / damien right now (i only saw Mystery Dad for a half second but he’s probably a Potential too) but ill see how things play out 

i Loved the idea of wren having Celebrity Crush Gossip with his daughter but i looked up this name and uh 

:( i am immensely disappointed (unless ‘she picked someone gross as a joke’ was the point i guess) (looks like this was recent news but) 

id buy her anything she wants but fine : |

i lov...her,

oh no

please never do that again

he apparently is very personally offended by the existence of hot topic as far as i can tell 

DEAD GOTH AND BEYOND

it would actually match everything perfectly and now im sad i cant get it for u

OH SHIT

OH SHIT ITS HAPPENING

BE COOL 

lmao i cant BELIEVE you literally fuckign meet him at hot topic. i thought he was gonna be like some Mysterious Gentleman you come across somewhere or. meet him at a library or a garden or something but no you meet him being obnoxiously petty at hot topic employees and i am ACTUALLY going to cry 

wouldnt he have seen the picture on the website and noticed it was edwardian whatever though 

legendary 

honestly i cant say im excited to hang out with I-Named-All-Of-My-Identical-Children-After-Christ joseph whatshisname but sure okay :’ )
