I hope this doesn't turn AS DARK as AL.

Also I hope my DIK playthrough doesn't fuck me with Bella I'd hate that. So far I'm getting all the scenes.

Hes saving Bella for last because that's his bread and butter character lol. Gotta keep you suckers interested somehow. :ROFLMAO:
Haha, I understand, but if you play too hard to get, the fish is going to wriggle off the hook. Looking at the pace it's going to be 2023 before something satisfying takes place.. I imagine a lot more of 'us suckers' are going to wriggle free.

There are a hell of a lot more side characters in this game compared to AL, so basically more cannon fodder.

I think the reason he does it is it is an easy way to involve all the LI's at once, and get a lewd scene from them all at once. You don't need to bother with IRL stuff in a fantasy game. That is how MC can get a scene with Maya, Josy, Bella and Jill and Jade all within a few minutes. The D&G game is basically how to get a bunch of sex scenes in a short amount of time, without needing to use and real logic.

That said, that is too much filler content, even if it is sexual, that doesn't actually matter. I'd rather have route exclusive content with each of the girls that acts as a bit of progression, even if it isn't a lot or sexual.

- MC can help Jill with her piano. He can practice his guitar in his room, I think it's odd he never played for Jill this update. Him playing guitar and her on piano would've been a great scene.
- Bella could've invited MC to the gym with her. She showed up at his room after, why not have MC go to the gym first? They can have another yoga scene and maybe a little locker room fun after ;)
- At the bar, when MC sees Jade and Cathy, he should've been able to talk to them. If he was sleeping with both of them, that could've been a 3-way or a 1v1 scene if on just one of their routes.
- Maya could've had a lewder scene at the library.
- Josy could've had a lewder scene in class when MC goes under the table to get the pencil.
- On Sage's route, he could've wondered around some and found the other HOT's. He was looking for ice-packs ;)
On this, I think I'm in partial agreement with Holy Bacchus : if DPC is worried about finding ways to shoehorn in lewd scenes for all the girls then he should stop writing the story in such a way that forces us to choose between the girls! Don't put in some half-assed (if lovingly rendered) dream sequence for us to fap to.

Personally, I like the branching paths. It adds exactly the sort of consequences to the relationships that I feel is sorely lacking from simple harem games like, say, WVM. Yes, I worry that DPC hasn't built up the trust that's required to really pull that off, but that's a risk I am prepared to take.

But in that case, DPC should stick to his guns and just admit that sometimes there won't be super-hot lewd scenes for everyone. We'll get over it (eventually, when the next episode comes out).

He's too busy making more lewd scenes for Jade. :ROFLMAO:

I want moooooore
I should go do a count and see how many sex scenes Jade has compared to everyone else, its actually pretty crazy if you think about it. Even the bathroom girls aren't getting as much action as Jade's getting.

Nick's probably the main suspect for now, everyone's rooms were trashed but his. Unless, it was a high IQ move from the culprit
My money is on it being Heather, Nick being the #1 suspect is way too easy and i don't believe any of the DIKs did it. Heather is the only person outside of the DIKs that seems to have full access to the house. Maybe she found out about what Tommy/Quinn has been up to? Who knows, its just a theory anyways.

That doesn't make any sense so don't sweat it.

Is there any reason that licensed music is not available in phone? I mean, since he has license for it, why not add it into phone at all?

Has anyone else felt kind of... I don't know... disappointed with these last couple of episodes?

In Episode 5, it felt like one step forwards, but two steps backwards. We had finally cleared Hell Week, as well as sorting out our living arrangement, but then the mansion get thrashed and we're left with another momentous task to solve. Except this time, we don't have the pleasure of staying with stunners such as Maya, Sage or Bella. I thought that that was the time the story was going to pick up its pace, but instead, it felt like we were set back even further. Adding to this, I thought the episode was packed with way too many freeroam events, in such a way that it no longer felt like we were advancing the story, only expanding the details.

Then you Episode 6, which was just... weird. We have some type of micro version of a kingdom management game, ridiculously difficult buttons to find in side quests, even more freeroam events, and to top it all off, half the scenes were in the context of D&G, which is just complete imagination. It holds the same value as a dream sequence. I feel like the game is just being convoluted with content that isn't relevant to the overall experience.

And when DrPinkCake spends five months on updates, I can't help but think he is making poor choices in terms of priority. Instead of advancing the story (I don't know at what point the game will reach its conclusion, but if it's at graduation, we will be going until 2025), the game is being broadened and filled with content that really isn't that meaningful. The entire D&G scene could have been cut to favour something else, for example. I don't know if I am the only one who thinks like this, but when I wait this long for an update, I would have hoped it contained more exciting things than cleaning a mansion and talking to a bunch of dudes.

Y'know I don't really see the darkness in this episode that's lacking from the others.

We knew from the very first conversation with Maya that she had financial and family issues.

Same with Quinn it was obvious from the start that she was running drugs and prostitution even before we were formally introduced to her.

And even then those situations just add drama to the story because without drama you don't really have a story. Just running from sex scene to sex scene.

I also see a lot of fear about the "ending", I don't see this game having a real "ending".

The furthest I see this game progressing is end of first year, I say that because we've been given teasers of what happens in second semester(Bella class, new DIKs, spring break) so I think DPC is planning for that.

I don't expect to find eternal love before the MC is even 20, and a random time skip with a 30 year old MC, his LI and 2 kids is possibly the worst ending I can think of.

After finishing the episode my impressions are that Tybalt will be a minor nuisance in later updates (i didn't punch him because that would be dumb no matter how much i hate this asshole), the tape was bound to explode as the ticking time bomb that it was but the interesting part would be who leaked it as only 3 people have the password for the safe, MC, Tommy and Rusty. And the ending with Maya's father came out of left field to add more unnecessary drama nobody asked for.

I really disliked the choice of picking between Sage and Jill for their scenes. I guess its to put a wrench for those who are going after both of them? And Sage as adorable as she is being with a cold was just so she was out of the picture for some backstabbings to become afoot for later episodes.

The DnG game also came out of left field and felt unnecessary and forced.
