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

[ffive]

Why can't I punch Vinny as a neutral? I could punch the other dude

The DIK option is locked behind different requirements for these two.

* to punch Oscar the MC needs ep2FoughtJocks or ep5_agitatedCaleb or ep6_foughtTommy
* to punch Vinny the MC needs ep5_agitatedCaleb and ep6_foughtTommy

note, for Vinny you'll need both earlier events, for Oscar any will do.

what's the different between season 3 episode 9 and update patch in download section?

You can use the update patch if you already had the interlude downloaded. The other one is the whole season 3 (that is released so far).

 

[Ivivanov]

Patch 9.1 and loop is still here. WTF?

Patch 9.1 and loop is still here. WTF?

Looping is caused by using mod(s) in previous seasons and fucking up your save by entering multiple romance paths. DPC isn't going to fix your shit for you.

Patch 9.1 and loop is still here. WTF?

Which loop are you talking about? is it in Bella's path?

anyway, are you playing with a modded save?

Can you pick any girls in cum-petition or just selected few? Haven't run the dik route yet.

 

[Raziel_8]

Do you think Dawe is going to request a DNA test?

He's dumb, but he recieved those pics Arieth fucking all the diks and are they still together or again ?
Since MC's/Dereks prank with his shaker in hell week Arieth avoids him pretty much and goes after Big A and later Celeb.
I hope he isn't that dumb and just accept it.

Fellas,
Long time listener here. Any hints on getting that solo Maya scene and the other intermediary scene with Josy and Maya ?
I got their ending but neither of these.

 

[BigBlueDude]

I didnt know DPC would screw you over like this but i guess im not really surprised.

The only save i have where ive skipped minigames and its the Others/quinn/manwhore one. And of course im no longer allowed to do all three activities, they cost 2, 2 and 5. Budget is 8. The fuck DPC?!

So the time have finally come, I need help. What variable do i change with the console open to re-enable minigames?

Edit: Ill be damned if i miss out on all three for no damned good reason in one playthrough. Im simply not replaying this Others path multiple times when i could do it once.

Keep making out with Maya and don't mention Josy for the solo scene.

Don't know about the other, it just happened for me :v

 

[JesterAI]

well this is annoying, the triumphant feeling of finally ending a long drawn out free roam to be rewarded with... a free roam, but in the dark!

it feels like a troll lol. Not fun, not erotic, just like an obstacle to get through. Do people actually like that?

 

[HeartBreakerGaming]

So can someone let me know when their is a walkthrough for the EP 9 Freeroam, because im not re doing that free roam for every save.

Anything can happen. I have the feeling that the whole pregnancy affair is the way DrPinkCake decided to dismiss a whole subplot and some characters (like Mona and Cathy). Did you notice that Chad and Troy vanished from episode 9?
Some antagonists aren't useful anymore (Chad, jocks, Dawe), and here he comes in the Real Bad Guy (Vinnie).

The fanmade walkthrough used to come out before the Official one. It's a really well done walkthrough.

I agree with you, anyway. Better wait for the walkthrough.

Editing is actually a huge part of art that most people don't appreciate. You can have the greatest, coolest idea in the entire world and sometimes it just doesn't fit in the story, and it has to go. Or with episodic art like this, you do have to choose what goes where. Some lazy devs would have just cut the party in half to cut down on work and meet a deadline, which IMO ruins their art. Others would throw in literally every single thing they made cause they spent money and time on it. DPC does neither and I think it's one of his strengths as a Dev. Each episode contains an idea, or a problem and we work out way through it, just as each season contains a larger problem that we chew through. It's not perfect, but it's good to see.

People don't often realize it, but almost all visual moving art uses the exact same formula and when artists don't follow it, it's usually really hard for the audience to understand their work. Humans are basically robots that depend on rigid structure, then petty children who get upset if the artist can't disguise the structure behind a magic trick and make us forget we've heard this story before a thousand times.

I will raise the problem of psychology in your second paragraph. Yes, people generally do not see the whole picture of what is happening. Here the situation is this: people have been waiting for the development of the script for a very long time - they got a little different, the episode is almost entirely dedicated to the party. And they got angry. "How is it? We waited so long to find out about Cathy Cluck, Bella's closed door. What links Lynette and Royce, and other secrets! And we just get a party?"
Whereas a person who only yesterday discovered Being a DIK, playing all nine Episodes at once, will not notice anything. He will say: "Cool party!".
It is a matter of perception of the situation of two people who find themselves in different conditions.

Wooah, how did you get this? In ALL my playthorughs I always convinced JamJam to leave his gf, but I ended up having them together at the party, and he let Leon down.

You can pick telling scary stories as one of the activities. And/or pick drinking competition instead of body shots. This will bring the total cost down to 6-7, so within your budget.

Not the best party, the free roam takes most fun out of it, even the MC behaves like it's a chore.
I hardly see the negative reaction to the free roam as a overaction, many like the game despite free roam and minigames, not because of it.

Worst... Party... Ever...

Couldn't agree more with all you've said... And I'm not even one of those cases that like the game despite free roam and minigames, au contraire, after the setup of season 1, my favorite parts of the game in season 2 have been the parties, and I prefer sandbox games over stricto sensu VNs.

But this party was a drag...

The game started well, and the Visiting the Burkes part was really fun (at least for those on The Others path), but the party was just grind...

And, people, don't get me wrong. The formal aspects of the game are well done as always and look quite professional; the sex animations, for the most part (and when they happen), are very good. The problem with it, though, is that in other parties we had some freeroam, than action, some freeroam, than action, and so on... In this one, we had to endure everything just to have a payoff in the end... And even in The Others path, though we have three scenes, they are branched; and after you see the first one of your choice, the others feel like porn because they're not immersive anymore (in the sense you're just seeing what you've missed, like in an alternative reality)...

Besides that, I think that when played as a whole, this episode wasn't harmful, and those who'll play the entire season from Steam will enjoy it. It was for us who've been waiting that was disappointing... On the other hand, if the episode 8 was frustrating for DIKs, it was good for those who like romantic paths. This one, after the long waiting and as a standalone, runs the risk of not pleasing anyone (except those that liked the party per se)... For me, I wouldn't say it was a bad experience, but I was expecting more of it.

As for the romantic paths, I don't know why those who prefer them are not fuming, because it was kind of a non-event for them that party...
