one of the several things worth praising about drdt chapter 2 is how every single member of the cast has at least one moment where the spotlight is shone on them. like, at this point in the story, if you chose a character at Random, regardless of who you landed on, you could still make a pretty meaty video essay on them. 14 characters, nevermind 16, is still quite a sizeable cast, so the fact that the story's able to give everyone their time to shine, adding depth without anyone left forgotten, is really impressive to me
