VN Ren'Py Completed Acting Lessons [v1.0.2] [DrPinkCake]

[DarkBobo]

Thank you DrPinkCake for this amazing story, I absolutely didn't expect it to have such an impact on me I really thought it would be your run-of-the-mill classic dating simulator with a light-hearted scenario

I guess I both love and hate you ......

Anybody experiencing issues in the android version?
In episode 3, I'm unable to get past the choice to accept or reject Melissa when shes in MC's house.
For one, the choices doesnt appear at first. After clicking back and skip several times, the choice appears, but which ever i choose immediately brings me back to the main menu...

I am also experiencing this issue and I know others are as well since I read through all the comments from the port post up to current. has anyone found a solution to this or are we just screwed out of getting this story? It's harder for me to play games like this on my pc without having to minimize it every 2 seconds lol

Never have I ever both loved and hated a game this much, everything was going great until the fire happened, and the tone shifted in an unnecessary way, I don't play adult games to get depressed. I get that the developer wanted to deliver a message, but I don't think an adult game is the best way of doing so, and I hope that Being a DIK doesn't turn out the same, despite all that I still think that the game handled loss and struggling in life in a beautiful manner.

The android port crashes at the beginning of episode 3 when you have to choose between having fun with Melissa and waiting for Megan. Is that just my problem? Or...

I played on android too but nothing happened

 

[Mookys]

Interesting story with mixed emotions.
I almost shed a tear at one point.
The end is surprising.
The only regret is that one of the female character can't be saved.

This game got me, ngl.

 

[GINO71]

Can someone share the link for the android port+walkthrough mod?

 

[NøH9]

I was just about to replay the game but their was a feeling so i come to read the comantary thanks now i know i will not replay the game. It bring too much emotion for me curently.
But from what i recall it was a great game.

This is a well thought-out, story-driven "adult" game that really makes choice matter, and in a very profound way, as distinct from many other "porn" games that merely provide fap material. The ending made me feel like the karma of fooling around exploded. I honestly almost felt guilty of playing the game with a typical porn-game mindset and was sorry for the mc because of all the poor choices I made on his behalf.

 

[ZenoMod]

Honestly I play adult games because my real life sucks, and I wish I could make relationships work at least in my fantasy.

I get having a possible bad ending in wich one of the LI dies but making it unavoidable no matter what you do... What's the point of multiple choice, if there's no way to win?

If I wanted to worsen my depression I would have read Goethe...

I hope that Being a Dik will have at least the possibility of a good ending for each of the five branches, otherwise sorry but I'm not going to pay for it.

Geez, some of these reviews are ridiculously positive.
"a novel worthy of Shakespeare!" Why do I get the feeling this person has no idea what Shakespeare actually wrote, namely plays, not novels.

Hey, I freely admit, that Acting Lessons, by the standard of these forums, is one of the better written games, but really that's not saying much. It's fine, perfectly adequate for a porn game, but certainly not high literature. Actually, it's more like a soap opera in content and style.

 

[anan31anan]

they're just chemicals. I will use that mentality in real matrix.

 

[doritoite]

Am I the only one who feels like the ending was rushed? It just came out of nowhere. It's like the dev ran out of ideas and just decided to end it.

 

[Zedthebigdick]

Feeling both lucky and unlucky that I played through the game with Megan & Melissa route the first time. When facing the choice it's so tormenting. Even though I get it that this turn of events is the core of storytelling of this game, I can't help but feel that if this game could be like some of the Japanese galgames and have a true ending after you finish all the routes where everyone lives happily ever after. I know this goes againt what DPC is trying to express about healing and dealing with truma but I don't think having a good ending AFTER you tried the origin ones would hurt your overall experience.

Is it possible to have a playthrough choosing only Megan or only Melissa?
And not having any of them die in the fucking fire?

 

[Burger-Baron]

I went in blind, stayed faithful to Megan. That end was fucking rough man, I don't think I'll ever replay but I also don't regret playing it.

1. Kind of. You can't avoid the forced content with Megan however you play the game.
2. Nope

For long time I wanted to play this great game and I knew it is not for the faint of heart but when I did it still hit hard. I came to this thread to find out if it is possible to save both little darlings, no matter how, and reading the comments I now understand that even if I play like a monk without even touching any of girls it is still impossible. So, no matter for me to replay this game, all the outcomes are pretty much the same. Sadly...

Yeah its an emotional rollercoaster this one. The writing is well done.
