I'm not sure if any of those double entendres were intended, however to all the people who keep harping on how bad a writer DPC is, almost everything said in the game is gold. Each to their own of course, but this is the only game on this site that I haven't been even remotely tempted to start skipping dialogue on the first run.
Or Turkish. Actually, I'd not be surprised if ICSTOR was one of my people indeed. He has the temperament.Interesting I always thought that DPC was a Swede but now it makes more sense
Well to be fair the MC knowing the jocks don't see eye to eye with him, then he shows up I can see where the HOTs might want to just make it clear that they don't want him to fight. Hell, even some of the HOTs might not know the full story. I don't see them saying you started the fights, so don't do that here, but more like hey no fighting try to be respectful. At the end of the night, they just want to party and have a good time.
They really only ply it on if the mc is a DIK (as in not a Chick), and you gotta ask yourself, why would a DIK show up on his own to a party filled with Jocks? He's looking for trouble!
Hmm.. Haven't gotten to that point on my Sage (DIK) playthrough yet. Only my Josy & Maya and Jill/Bella saves, which both lean to the Chick side (but my MC still completed all fights against the Jocks).
Of course they would. They didn't want any fights to start and ruin their night. Besides, it's not just directed at the MC. When Heather said it, her words were also directed to Caleb and Darius. She would kick all three if a brawl began, regardless of who started it. With Melanie, she even addressed it to Alex specifically. She said nothing to MC. Chad then physically blocked him. Even if MC didn't defend Chad at the counsellors' office, he still told Alex to beat MC another day, just not at the party. I'm sure that if the situation was reserved (the DIKs were already at the party and a couple jocks decided to come), then they would still say the exact same thing.
You can only fight the big guy if you CHOSE to fight the jocks in the gym. That's at least 2 fights that could have been avoided but you chose not to. The MC got kicked out of his room, maybe started a fight with his roommate. I am not sure if that has any influence (I think not), but his reputation to get into fights is not completely unearned.
Standing your ground and retaliating isn't exactly the same as "getting into fights". I prefer a more neutral/chick mc, but I always pick the options to fight back against the bullies.
No, it's not the same but one led to the other. Did he get into a fight by standing his ground or not?
The first time it happened standing up to the jocks you get two options and while there are people who would say that those are the smart and the impulsive , I'd say it's more like the conflict avoidant and the gutsy one. Being conflict avoidant doesn't really make you smart or mature.
Yep, that sums it up, that's the CHIC way"Did you hear what happened, mc was bullied and got kicked around again and he didn't even try to run away... I know he is infamous for getting into fights."
Even that was a direct consequence because the mc just met Chad and Sage and for people like the alphas that's more than enough. You're right tho the mc should've known that the gym was basically enemy territory, but I'd say that didn't really matter because no matter the place or the time a pack of alpha cavemen would always find the excuse to bully someone they marked as a potential target.Yep, that sums it up, that's the CHIC way
I can recall only one single fight in the game that was not a direct consequence of what the MC did and that was getting beaten up before meeting Jill. I mean he KNEW he was getting into trouble when sneaking into the gym, right? He knew what would happen if he did and still did it.
Yes, you are absolutely right with that last statement (trust me, I've been there for all too many years, was about to quit because of it), even if bullies usually don't pick anyone who can actually fight back. But in this story it was the gym where he got into a fight by his own doing. Even if we ignore Hell Week, the MC did a lot of stupid sh** in this game and is quite a trouble maker - which is perfectly ok, that's the story - and I don't have any problem with people reacting to it.
So... just by being there, it was 'his own doing'??
Yes, he knew he was going to be in trouble and still did it.
Heather addresses MC if you decide to retort when Caleb tells you to leave. Before that, her words are aimed at all of you, even though she looks at MC but that's just because she thinks you're a creep anyway
IMHO the only unnecessary thing was making Anthony leave and even then I always do that because, like, how stupid do you have to be to go from Big A to Ant, have you even seen ants? they are the opposite of big
The being there might lead to a verbal confrontation, some harsh words. Sure.
but even in this case MC knows his mother's surname, at most he knows a false one given to him by Neil.
