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

[drakken]

Sage doesn't share

Technically she is granted their fwb but that's still sharing. I don't know if that would apply in a relationship she may be fine as long as there's no secrets. or she might be no different then she has been with chad. Quinn may be an exception tho (she did tell mc to go for it)

Another hidden innuendo from DPC? View attachment 1115458


Did I just find the picture of Rustsy grandmother?
Look over the left shoulder of Rusty!

And now compare the picture with the picture of Lynette!
Rusty is purebred...mmmhh...what if Lynette is not?
She doesn't have red hair. But the facial features resemble those of the grandmother.

Holy Bacchus, I know it could be just a prop.
But maybe it stimulates the people in the thread to an interesting discussion.

I had thought about this. I'm sure rustys dad would wanna meet the guy that got his son to be responsible and he recognizes mc or knows mcs family.

 

[Alfagrem]

Which of the Prep's fucked with Arieth?
Sarah says at the party that she found a medicine for Crabs in the medicine cabinet.

She found it in the DiK's mansion when she was snooping around there.

 

[Hesteros]

I don't know if that would apply in a relationship she may be fine as long as there's no secrets. or she might be no different then she has been with chad.

We still don't know. For now she's cool with MC banging others but that could change once they are in a genuine relationship. She could want MC just for her or she could be like Elena and allow MC to have threesomes with other girls. Sage is so far the only HOT who had never been seen fooling around with another girl nor show any interest in it. I doubt she would allow him to bang other girls on his own.

 

[Holy Bacchus]

I'm not sold on James returning like many here. He doesn't need to be physically present to play a significant role on Bella's route. Especially if a lot of her route is spent on getting her out of that "Ice Queen" persona.

I think James serving as a physically present impediment would work here and in some ways could be quite necessary if DPC wants to keep up the drama with Bella.

There's only so much mileage you can get out of the drama involving any character which is why TV shows will often have a character go through a story/drama arc that lasts either half a season or a few episodes and not the whole season. Bella being the "Ice Queen" that the MC has to gradually work on to help her overcome this part of herself is not something that can feasibly last for the potential 20 episode length of the game, or even last for 3/4 of that. After a while it will just become dull and frustrating to still be dealing with the same issue over and over, especially since we've seen this part of herself has already significantly melted away, particularly when the MC is present.

Having Bella finally let down that wall, let the MC in to what has been going on with her and her marriage, and give in to her desire and have sex with the MC only to have James return home shortly after would be exactly what her story calls for because once the "Ice Queen" part melts, the only drama is the potential taboo relationship but it doesn't stop them still being together in secret, whereas James being back throws a huge wrench in them being together and that seems like it much better fits the DPC style.

I wonder if Episode 7 will have any scenes between MC and Sage like they had in the swimming pool, where Sage shows a willingness to have an actual relationship with MC, rather than just fuck buddies.

She shoots down the MC's first two attempts at a relationship (when she's jacking him off during the guitar lesson and while having coffee in the HOT kitchen). After the pool conversation, MC doesn't try to push for "more than fuck buddies" anymore, and their relationship starts to evolve naturally, with MC becoming Sage's genuine friend and someone she can open up to.

I like the little look Sage has as the two cuddle in her bed while she's sick, after MC admits that he's never talked about his views on his mom's death and his birthday with anyone before. She opens her eyes, a worried look on her face, briefly aware that the relationship is deepening.

I also wonder if any sort of "artificial roadblocks" will be thrown up by DPC to prevent a Sage/MC relationship from developing too fast. I.E. MC gives Sage the same "I'm already falling for you" speech he can potentially give Jill on their picnic date, but instead of kissing MC passionately and letting him grope her, the more cynical Sage freaks out and harshly points out they've barely known each other for a month and she's just getting over a nasty breakup.

Or Sage discovers that MC was aware of Quinn's menu and is furious that he never told her (Sage), or (more realistically) Sage admits she's open to a relationship with MC, but given her recent breakup and the fact MC fucks anything that moves, she insists on taking things slow for the time being.

I'm still very skeptical we're going to see anything regarding Sage wanting a serious relationship with the MC. She just went through a tough break-up with someone that she clearly had completely the wrong idea about and it will leave a mark on her, potentially one where she's hesitant to have another serious relationship again given how she seriously misjudged Chad and her relationship with him, not to mention the fact that she'll be graduating after this current year so any relationship she starts now might only be temporary.

As far as Sage and Jill both graduating, I could see MC following in his mother's footsteps and ditching college to be with Sage/Jill ("I don't have to graduate from B&R, there are plenty of colleges I could get into. I just want to be with you.")

Jill isn't graduating yet because she's in her 3rd year, but the concept of the MC choosing Sage and leaving B&R behind to be with her is how I potentially see their relationship going.

Thanks for the link.

The facial expressions of the father are difficult to interpret, since he already has a mean face. He's facing Josy's bed in these shots and looking at it.

But the facial expressions don't show anger. On the opposite. Rather a kind of satisfaction, relief or positive confirmation.

Theory

What if the father told Maya that he would not release the money until Maya proved that she was not a lesbian or in a relationship with a man?

After the MC's first visit to the Pink Rose, Maya's note hints at what happened.
What if Maya, with the help of Derek, faked pictures to frame the father?

But now the father didn't believe the bait. At the end of EP3, Derek comes to the Maya/MC dorm room and talks to Maya while the MC waits in the hallway.

What if Derek told Maya that the father is still skeptical?
What if Derek convinces Maya to have real sex with MC?
Maybe Derek and Maya decided to show or send proof to the father?

Because of the intimate moment between the two, Maya starts to have doubts about the plan, because she realizes that there is more between her and MC and she doesn't want to jeopardize that. Maya says the following just before Josy knocks on the door. That Derek has confirmed something she always suspected and that she doesn't believe her father's lies anymore, hence her decision to complete the list.

I doubt Maya will send the video to her father. But there are two people who might have. Derek knows about the video and Josy learns about the video later and both have Maya's trust. They could get their hands on Maya's cell phone.

And now the affinity comes into play.
If MC is CHICK he will forgive and if he is DIK he will overreact.

And all because I interpreted the facial expressions!

Or maybe he just has a stoic expression that means nothing other than, "Hmmm, where is she?", and there isn't anything else to be interpreted from that.

Honestly dalli, most of the rest of us are digging for clues on the surface where they generally are and you're digging a tunnel to the Earth's core looking for answers.

Oh, I'm counting on it. Quinn is going to play a bigger role in the MC's story than you all realize.

Yeah, but not necessarily in a good way.

My theory after looking at previews again is that we will get option with sage to start open relationship with her, where MC can have fun with other side girls while sage is present. or MC can start only sage path.

Sage does not seem the type to want that sort of relationship.

She's sharing right now:

Sage: "I don't care if you want to date or fuck others."​

mc: "You don't care?"​

Sage: "Don't be mistaken. I do care for you, just not about that."​

I wouldn't exactly call that "sharing" since that generally tends to mean being in a proper relationship and your partner being OK with you having sex with others. Here it's more like she just genuinely doesn't care about him being with other girls because they're just FWB. If she wanted to get in to a committed relationship with him, then she likely wouldn't be OK with it.

i think sage we tell MC that she is falling for him in the next update

I think a lot of people may be setting themselves up for a disappointment.

 

[Johnyboie]

He can have Bella back after we smash that librarian pussy. She can go kiss him with mc's load fresh on her face

No she kiss him with mc's load deep inside her puasy then she kills James with that axe and we help her to hide the body

 

[Kellermann]

Quinn may be an exception tho (she did tell mc to go for it)

I wonder if she did this because she was starting to fall for MC (of course she isn't ready to outwardly admit it). It could be a doomed-to-fail attempt to keep things fun but "professional" with MC while she focuses on her schoolwork and graduation. It's a porn game, though, so that won't last.

We still don't know. For now she's cool with MC banging others but that could change once they are in a genuine relationship. She could want MC just for her or she could be like Elena and allow MC to have threesomes with other girls. Sage is so far the only HOT who had never been seen fooling around with another girl nor show any interest in it. I doubt she would allow him to bang other girls on his own.

Yeah, it would be an interesting change to have at least one main girl/side girl in the game who doesn't have bisexual tendencies. As much as I like bisexual ladies, there are some heteros still in existence in the world.

 

[Abhishek_tanwar]

If the MC is in a relationship with Bella, plus if she is going to be the MC's teacher, PLUS if James comes back? True recipe for disaster. Just has "clusterfuck spitroast" written all over it

AGREED !
Bella path is full of landmines.

 

[JamieSadistic]

Yeah, but not necessarily in a good way.

You're absolutely right. However, it could very well be a good way. Seeing as how things have been shaping up for Quinn so far, I doubt it but I'm still holding out hope that DPC creates a secret Quinn path somewhere in the near future that has some semblance of redemption for my girl.

 

[Holy Bacchus]

Agreed. Let Sage just be like, "Yeah, no thanks, I'm not into girls", if the subject of threesomes and such comes up.

You're absolutely right. However, it could very well be a good way. Seeing as how things have been shaping up for Quinn so far, I doubt it but I'm still holding out hope that DPC creates a secret Quinn path somewhere in the near future that has some semblance of redemption for my girl.

I too think/hope there will be a redemption path for Quinn, but the question is how much more shit will be caused in her wake before that and how much might it fuck up life for the MC? Because I have a feeling that she's going to be responsible for something that will seriously fuck up his life, whether by accident or design, and this will factor in to whether or not people want to help Quinn and how much they want to help her after everything she's done.

Leah did get endings in al. Even tho she was pretty solidly side chick and she had less to do with the overarching story then quin does with this one.

Even though I wrote this game off several weeks ago I came back to it. Started a fresh Jill run and have that game ready to go for Ep. 7 (two saves; blaming Derek for the fire and sharing blame for the fire, not knowing if it really matters or not with the choice).

I have to admit, that playing a fresh 1-6 run while waiting for 7 to drop did make me see characters in a new light. I almost veered off for Bella while on the Jill run after doing the Ep 4 scene with Bella in the pool and almost wanting to do the Ep 5 scene in the Sauna. And almost giving in again to have Bella help with the library in the DIK mansion. I was pretty tempted by it and I might still do that for the Steam version just to see how it all plays out. Bella definitely makes me think "What If" more than any other VN girl in these games.

Yes my love for Jill is WELL documented in this thread and I had to take time away from it, but Bella sure is tempting.

I'd have the MC leave school for Jill, even though she might utterly hate the idea of it. Being on permanent CHIK I don't know how that choice is going to play out or if it will even factor in doing so if that route/choice is implemented.

I will love to see that.
As sage said : Quinn is talking lot about you either she likes you or you got under her skin.

Sage : she don't talk about guys but you she don't stop.

I am sure there will be a path where we could save or help out quinn.

If/Once Sage gets serious with the MC then the parameters change. Look how bananas she went sneaking around to catch who Chad is fucking on the side.

She fine with the MC doing his thing now, but it'll come to an end if she becomes his girlfriend, that's for sure.

 

[drakken]

If he was looking at Maya's bed, I'd agree with you about the stoic look on his face.

But he is looking at Josy/MC's bed. And I remember the look on his face when he walked past the MC. He wasn't looking kindly at the MC then.

If you want to find connections, sometimes you have to dig deep. Yes, and sometimes I get a bump because I bumped into the core of the earth.

He had that look when he was in the car and when he walked past mona. Maybe thats just his normal face? resting dick face.

Glad to see you came back to it. Jill won't think any less of you if you create a separate playthrough for Bella or even a Bella/Jill playthrough. I say this a lot, but you miss so much good content by just having one save. And I don't just mean lewd content. Anyway, enjoy! I'm doing the same by getting all of my playthroughs in order and up-to-date.

 

[AchedCroissant]

Imagine believing that DPC won't put on more drama for 20 episodes and that this game will only have mindless sex and will be another VN of the lot.

There is fear that your favorite girl receives the same treatment that Maya and Josy have received

I found his expression hard to read dalli and I can usually read facial expressions pretty well. Stoic? yes. Indifferent for sure. I'm not going that way with them but I am curious to see how it plays out. For those on their route, it could be the start of the single path with them if something goes pear-shaped with the father.

Yes this game is basically a soap opera where one wrong choice could spell total chaos in the plotline. DPC's certainly weaved a hell of a web in Ep. 6. Besides the story with Bella, the BS blackmail thing by Tybalt (which is really a wasted quick side-storyline in my eyes) you have Sage "beating" Chad up and now working on her dissertation, which to me, is good to keep her mind off of Chad.

My MC isn't romantic with her but also he is lukewarm friends with her. I didn't have the choice whether or not to help Sage or be with Jill, so I'm guessing, and hoping, Sage is gone for the most part of my MC's story. But seeing this game fresh after a brand new Jill run (without the mod, ALTHOUGH the gallery for Ep 6 STILL says I punched him even though I didn't, I guess that's hardcoded into the gallery?) it's a hell of a story. I feel so bad for Riona though. Yes I despise Quinn 100% but can't help pitying her.

One hell of a game, and after CoBD, it's the best game out there.

Kellerman, I think I plan on doing a separate save with Bella. It breaks ALL my rules about picking one girl and sticking with them no matter what. But doing the rollback choices with Bella and things like that really makes me want to go her route. The more I think about it the more I want to do it.

 

[Deleted member 3313072]

BTW, does anyone think that the choice to take or throw blame for the Preps' mansion fire is really a major factor? I have a save for each choice, but I doubt it really matters. Didn't see any factor with it or consequences in the walkthrough.

I guess with Ep. 7 we'll see how it goes.
