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

[Pendrell]

Amazing review, as always! All the key points of Quinn's path are adressed and unpacked in such a way I have nothing to add and can only agree wholeheartedly!
Thank you for the post, brother!

Thanks so much for your kind words, brother.

 

[Otyi]

It quits for me at the first scene of episode 10 (Helen at the Doctor) with every save.
There is a solution for this? Thanks!
I also played the Halloween party again. It still happens.

 

[Ghiser]

do you have a Josy and Maya EVEN playthrough? Cause i can tell you... the J&M route is going a bit different if you favored one over the other. There you can see friction building up more and more, not so much if you are even with them

And we have the same in this episode:

Hopefully not off topic... so... i watch Wrestling occasionally. Not much, only sometimes. One company used "the final countdown" from Europe for an entrance of a Wrestler. Just playing this song ONE TIME costs 100.000$ one single time...

Well, i dont want to do the math on adding that song to a videogame where it can been played all the time... but... lets say... if you have that kind of money, your grandchildren will not need to work in their lifes.

I highly doubt they would charge DPC $100,000, but even if they did, he could afford it. He's made well over a million on this game, even if you ignore steam and gog sales.

Why don't you guys realise that you HAVE TO play every route if you want to enjoy this game and understand what happens?

If you don't date Quinn you will miss this very important scene, for instance:

My guess is that she is PRISCILLA

But you can date Quinn only if you are a Dick, and if you are a Dick you can't date Jill, Josy and Maya.

So, you have to play many different paths and sub-stories: just think about how episode 10 can be different whether you told / you didn't tell Derek that you still have feelings for Maya in episode 5.

And I think you guys GOTTA STOP telling that this update is short.

I'm playing this update since friday morning, and still I haven't played Sage's, Josy&Maya's and most of my different Dick's and Others' variant routes.

I'm not one of the ones who thinks ep10 is short, it felt full even on a singular route. But I don't think "you need to replay the game x times" for it to be considered full length when 75% of the content is the same across every route and there's arguably maybe 10+ routes (including soft routes) at this point; is a valid argument.

 

[Nirobi]

All this talk and I'm just really looking forward to fucking Elena.

Dont interpret to much into it... its pretty much a "reset" for the "even" count as it seems...

Think of it, First of all... Josy and Maya pretty much NEVER had a real relationship. They were hiding it from the start. And as soon as Patrick got wind of it, the relationship pretty much was on hold or under a very dark cloud. So you can say... Josy and Maya didnt even had a fair chance yet.

Than. Its Episode 5 and 7 all over again.

In 5 you can bang Maya or Josy, not both, same goes for 7. If you split it up, you can get even after ep 9. If you dont they are jealous of each other. And in every scene with either only Josy or only Maya there these topoics where both are unsure about the other but do feel close to the MC. Which is kinda natural, cause the relationship with the MC doesnt have those dark clouds in it, its just only sweet for both of them. Something they never had with each other, cause they didnt had the chance for it.

So after episode 9, the "counter" is reset, thats how i see it. Again... now in episode 10 you have the choice to visit either maya OR josy. And guess what, i bet you in ep 11 or 12 we will get another decision like that AGAIN. Pick the other girl, and you get even, otherwise... they will argue again a little bit, or a little bit more.

For the "foreplay" thing at the camp... that doesnt trigger anything, it doesnt make ANY difference at all for the scene, just... who give the blwojob is the difference, nothing that matters.

The Bella path disappointed me a bit since it's also my main. I was expecting a bit more drama from Jill considering MC was romancing her too. Jill has more or less the same reaction on every path. The Bella path felt a little short.

Also, Bianca has the same reaction whether you grabbed her ass or not. I was hoping she would have brought it up.

 

[KingCoomba]

Hey loving the new episode, I've been playing the manwhore (others) route, but when josy builds the fort and tells the MC she still likes him he imediatly says he's over her, is there a way to pursue the relationship if so can anyone tell me what triggers this response and in what episode? Thanks

Not in ep10. Maybe in future eps, who knows.

Well, it's a different things.

They played it once but they _broadcasted_ it.
How many people reached at once?

And very likely the wrestling company maintains the right of rebroadcast the video every time they want without paying 100k each time.

For a videogame is something similar. It's not a single broadcast, but several different plays... It's like selling a CD.

Anyway, who license a music for a specific use I guess makes an estimate of the number of people composing the audience and of the cash flow of the project to make a plausible offer.

In this specific case, probably they would refuse not to be associated with a porn game, but should they accept they would probably make a reasonable offer for the cash flow generated by the game.

(If I was the one making 1 million with a game which is primarily story and rendering I would not pay 10% of my gross income to license a single song)

 

[Grunts21]

anyone got a special render guide for the new update?

 

[ffive]

Incidentally,



LiBrian is totally one of the guys posting here about wanting to tap Karen's ass, isn't he.

I assume Sancho1969's mod will tell you when there's a hidden render but he hasn't updated it yet. He's working on it though. https://f95zone.to/threads/being-a-dik-s1-s2-v0-8-3-s3-v0-9-1-multi-mod-sancho1969.109357/

 

[ZazzyBoi]

Me too, dude.
It seems all of us too slow even in normal mode will have to start a new playtrough without minigames... or keep losing against Troy again and again and again

Maybe your stats are shit, cuz I went in on hard mode and had no issue with Troy. Or maybe you're overthinking. Just do any hit on offense and try for dodges only on defense.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

For me I don't see a problem with what Josy did she has every right to be upset she wants MC and will do anything to make that known. I love this episode it drops a big fucking nuke on the brain dead idea she has no story Josy has a great and this episode proves what I been saying all along. Josy is going through some things inside I wouldn't want to be on her bad side. I think there will be big reward for being with her and if your waiting for her.

Thing is, if you into casual girls next door, than it works with you.
But for me, another reason why I my lost interest in her.
S she really has no personal story and Josy only works together with Maya. She's too ordinary. In my personal experience, with such “average girls” everything ended quickly.
Let's look at the dates with the girls in Ep.10:
-Sage, it seemed like there were casual dates, but Sage is very intelligent and educated and you can develop a philosophical, highly intelligent conversation with her (just don’t press her about personal things, Tremolo!)
-Bella. Yoga, beer-pong for a bet, and the best sex scene in the episode.
-Quinn. A risky adventure with crime, a cabriolet ride through the city at night.
With awesome music. A feeling of something forbidden.
-Even Jill, it was funny how MC was trying to loosen her up a little and get her hooked on rock music. In some ways it's ironic, Lana, her sister, brought home some rocker and the lower classes. Where one sister goes, so does the other.
-The conversation with Nicole gave me warm, glowing emotions. I'm the same age as Nicole and I can easily understand her.
-I don’t know how to feel about Lily yet, all this “rolling for a status” is a little strange. Lily is an even more closed book than Quinn, and until I understand what she’s hiding behind herself, I can’t make up my mind.
-Hanging out with Zoey is an attempt to return to the past, restore the relationship, tension and a lot of unspoken words that need to be said to each other.

What did we get with Josy? We just sit in her room with pillows, gossip about others and look at pictures on the phone. Compared to everything else, this is dull for me.

Spoiler: Josy don't know what she like.

Indeed it will. It does not only that but much, much more. I'm busy at it... Regards.

It was like a lightning strike. Josy is looking for women's hobbies on the Internet to fill out her Twitter profile. That is, she doesn’t get carried away with anything.

To me the intention behind this scene was that Josy is very insecure about herself and prone to peer pressure (she pretend-jokingly admits as much when she agrees to spend the night in tent later) It took just one random guy negging her at the DIK party to start question herself, delete her profile and try to look up what's considered "suitable" hobbies that random assholes won't mock her about.

Oscar has done to her what you're very much also doing in your post -- accuse her of being "just a basic bitch" and she might not show that, but it cut her to the bone because it's likely at some level that's how she views herself, that she's someone who has really nothing special going for her.
