VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [DrPinkCake]

[shazba]

Do you have an explanation for why Jill is smiling like a maniac from a horror movie?


View attachment 1724108

I tried to understand, but the only thing I came to was the conclusion that because of the shape of Jill's face, it's basically difficult to portray a good smile. Her closed smiles are cute, but when she shows her teeth, it's just awful

Pink said that he does not use sculpting, but it seems in vain.
This can be fixed in my opinion by sculpting (but I'm not an expert).

Ocean enjoys sculpting in zbrush and see what open smiles and emotions he has.

There is no denying that Jill can go from a 10:

Spoiler: Arguably one of her best shots

with Maya and Josy the story officially opens or closes with the fourth chapter, to expect that MC still feels bound is therapeutic overkill.

Their story together is defined by that scene yes, but you can still be interested in one of them and get extra scenes with them outside of the thruple. I'm hoping it is a way to be with one of them separately moving forward. Namely Josy. You may be able to choose if you want to be with just one even if you are all together if you focus on one more than the other. Attaching strings and all that. I have a M&J save and noticed that if you focus on her events that she is wearing your sweater when they come to see you after shopping. If you split it up she is wearing a white belly shirt so it's like she is less attached to you. It seems like you could make another choice about them later.

Pink said that he included Jill in the game at the very last turn, and apparently that's why her model is so terrible.
I do not know how he came up with the idea to do this (maybe his wife forced him), but damn Camilla smiles much better. Give me Camila as LI

When I went for my "Others" save too after selecting it MC specifically mentions he's not interested in a serious relationship and "Josy isn't available"

Me too. I set up a "Josy" others save in the hopes that it will be possible.

He's done some work on her model since episode 1, but the smile is still fucked. That one on the picnic haunts my dreams.

Now come on! That's literally the most lovely smile of them all!
Okay... maybe the smile is just too Broad and fixated a bit too tensely....

 

[DarkKiller]

For me this one's the worst offender, can't look at this fucking render and not think about the wojak meme...

My suspension of disbelief have been broken by the revelation that DPCs patreon community abhors anything that even hints at the girls in the story having relations outside the Fuckface making such content taboo. Unless they are already unavailable by being in a couple like John Boy&Elena, or the community slut Arieth, god that character knows how to love and live her life. Kudos! Her behavior have sort of coloured the impression of the Hots as well as the restaurant girls and I just assumed they all fucked on the regular, we just didn't see it. Now... it feels like they don't and can't due to a patreon community. It have really tarnished the story for me.

My take on this is that DrPinkCake wanted to create a story without any hint of NTR, and, therefore, has attracted Patrons who agree with that stance.

His previous game was the same. As a Patron since back then, I don't recall anyone clamoring for or against NTR. But his community now at least agrees with how it's going, or they would leave.

whats the max highscore in triple tile?
these are my points

Latina Goddess for a reason.

It's going to be disappointing if we don't get routes for Camila and Riona honestly.

i mean, what you guys got there^^

 

[AchedCroissant]

i mean, what you guys got there^^

I think I made like 60 and because when the game gives you the money I look to lose on purpose

I'm not interested in the trophy that the game gives you, I don't see any use for it, probably on Steam you'll earn an achievement but nothing here

The Interlude

Loved to see where Tremolo was coming from and to see Zoey follow her dreams. So many people never do and end up bitter at what could have been. She learned and grew from it. She made sense and her behavior can be easily modified to be something Tremolo is chasing, or run from or hell even model himself upon. As a reader you can make it plausible either way based on how you are steering Tremolos affinity. Pretty good design in my opinion.

Theres only one problem and its a big one in the interlude, in my opinion that is, and it was what got me here to read and look for others impression of it. Namely the lack of a second relationship for Zoey. I was sure Zoey were at the very least date someone and hook up to some degree but it didn't happen and that felt weird to me that she didn't experiment, at all. Sure she saw Emma and Brent but that wasn't personal and it was from the outside and shit like that doesnt really stick unless its personal from what I've seen in people and myself. Its basically doesn't happen.

That was one of the reasons why i started reading shit here. Its what bent my suspension of disbelief too far too ignore, so it broke. I had to read what others though. Couldn't in my wildest dreams anticipate the hate of Zoey and the Interlude here. Shes literally what you want her to be to make your version of Tremolo to make sense.

So, I started to read this forum, and really read it.

Page after page, gone through the last 120+ pages at least over the past week or two. Its been a real revelation. It never occurred to me that people self-inserted in the story and cared about cheating and infidelity and that was the reason its pretty a non-existent part in the story, except for the Fuckface himself (god i love this moniker, thank you!).

Now... it feels like they don't and can't due to a patreon community. It have really tarnished the story for me.

To me this game is a book, we just happen to shape the story a bit to nudge what the characters we find more interesting/sexy does, but ultimately have no real control so no real emotional stake in the final outcome. Sure there is emotion in enjoying of the story and the sex scenes but its not... capital E emotional, like something personal, that you yourself have experienced. Its not like you go "we beat Thanos woo" when you saw the movie right? Right?!

So why would you self insert with Fuckface and care about cheating especially not until they only just now decided to become a couples in the story? It just doesn't make sense to me. I mean, we see the Fuckface's face, read his (not your own) internal monologue and get to see his family etc etc. To me this severs me from his feelings kinda, I can empathize sure but not self insert, how can you have an emotional "this is me" connection and by extension a territorial emotion over the girl(s)? Let alone all times we spy and get the disembodied view of other characters talking. Those that Fuckface have no idea about! Self insert how?! I really dont get it. Wish I did... or maybe not. For a moment perhaps.

tl;dr A real revelation and broken suspension of disbelief. At least its not shattered yet.

Bella, Maya for LIs. Quinn for being the most fucking interesting character in the game. Villains have to be after all to make a story engaging- pimping and drug peddling for sure and possibly embezzling, and maybe more.

You never played any role play game don't you ? I get what you saying, and I am somewhere in the middle myself, when it's come to role playing. But in the end of the day you have some self invest. Yes its mostyl a book, but like a role playing book with the pancil , paper, dice. And because you can alter the things, that's already your self interest. "I want my character to end up with this character, Because I like that Character". IF anything people actually want way more freedome than what we got.
Purely because of Self interest, because of the role play element. - " I hate Josy and Maya, why MC care about them or friends with them I never wanna see them again, kill them off " - this is not much different, than someone who feel like I don't wanna play a character who is cheating.
Anyone who know anything about The Witcher, know that Geralt true love is Yennefer. Its in the books, but the moment they get the chance to role play as Geralt, they go and Fuck Thriss , and Thriss is best girl because she has red hair Green eye and and big tits and blah blah blah. Its al false, its not in line wiht the real Geralt, and they completely fucking wrong but its doesnt stop them , and they enjoy it.

It's the same thing with Badik MC. if anything I feel weird the opposite. How can you not be invested ? that's the whole point, other wise, you can just watch Pornhub for a quick fap.

And you are because you already named the girls you like or think has the best story , thats your self invest

I think that the headcanon folks who think the girls get zipped up in ziplock bags and thrown into the fridge waiting for Tremolo to fuck them are delusional. The main girls may not have other relationships but that is because they are dysfunctional, and Tremolo is attracted to their dysfunction because of his own problems. The rest of the girls, including the strippers, hots, and even feminists or nerd girls certainly are having something resembling sex lives that are their own private business. There is also no chance that Sage didn't fuck Chad, no matter how gay he is, because if you don't throw it into a girl at some point she doesn't consider you a boyfriend, much less date exclusively for three years. I'm certain that Quinn also fucks for money when it pleases her and has been doing so for years, although she gets uncomfortable taking Tremolo's money once she starts catching feels. These are things that are more implicit than explicit, but this is a sex game about horny college kids going to a party school. We shouldn't allow ourselves to get hung up on it or resent other people for getting lucky. I am kind of with you that if you can separate yourself from MC (easy for me to do because he doesn't handle his problems in any way close to the way I would) you get a much better playing experience than if you self-insert.

How dare you imply that any of the girls had sex with anyone else before they met the MC?

We've already stated countless times that they are all virgins at the moment they meet the MC (even Nicole a.k.a Virgin Mary who gave a birth to a kid, but is still a virgin at the point she met the MC).

In fact, Sage repeatedly and explicitly points out that Chad has never shown any physical interest in her, which is more evidence that they haven't had sex than the other way around.

then that it doesn't make any sense at all is another matter, but this is what the story of the game tells.

then we can also blame MC who is only interested in girls that no one else (Burke family excluded) has ever been seriously interested in

 

[Noctie666]

huh, it had the opposite effect to me. she easily became the 2a/2b girl with quinn. prior to the interlude i didn't really care too much about her, just past experiences as a child growing up and exploring sexuality. but you get to learn so much about her through her diary and watching her actions. she's not an ex who bailed on the mc. they were at a crossroad in life. mc wanted to finish school and go to college and she wanted to pursue what she thought was her dream. she was depressed over her grandmother's passing and she did what she thought her grandmother would have wanted her to do; find her own happiness.

she's always had mc's best interest in mind. she saw emma, who she perceived as a cooler, older person with more life experiences, and modeled her own life experiences with that of emma and bret's. she perceived that emma and bret had a great relationship even after they had broken up; she heard what bret said about giving him space allowed him to heal and grow. zoey only realized her mistake when emma eventually got too paranoid and jealous and did not want the same thing to happen to her. she now realized that even in that small podunk town, she could still have home blindness.

she's talented, saracastic, independent, free-spirited, loyal, and brave. zoey is one one of the few characters that show actual growth. you see her amateur sketches eventually turn into tattooable pieces. even the art in her diary takes a qualitative jump. she knows she made mistakes but she wants to make it right by heading home. i think people are fixated on her "leaving" the mc, but she always wanted the mc to go with her; mc was the one who said he didn't want to go. mc has also stated that he would travel with her etc. in that respect, mc is the one who bailed on her.

"she's not an ex who bailed on the mc." - Of course she was, just because she refused to acknowledge it with the excuse that she's not "good at feelings" doesn't mean she isn't. Just look at how he talks about her and his reactions, he was clearly upset about she leaving (the bench scene) while she was happy about it and even started ghosting him. That's pretty damn lame even if you look at them as just long time childhood friends.

I think my problem with the interlude is that the whole thing is designed to make you feel sorry for her so you welcome her back when in reality MC is the one that got hurt. Seriously, her whole story is based on generating pity and the death of her grandmother is part of it. Everything she wanted went to shit so she comes back crying, it's really hard for me to find her interesting because of that.

 

[gamingdevil800]

My take on this is that DrPinkCake wanted to create a story without any hint of NTR, and, therefore, has attracted Patrons who agree with that stance.

He's setting up a lot of hints for some of the side girls who are already in relationships that may get a scene with the MC though. I guess he could just pull the Heather/Tommy split up or Sally dumps Magnar so it's "not ntr" though Unless his audience doesn't mind if it's just the MC stealing girls

has anyone tried this game on linux ?
if yes does it work perfectly?
ps - i haven't used linux so question might be stupid
