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

[thorin0815]

I see what you did there.

Seriously, when a redhead is burning your house down, that’s one redhead too many!

You can't blame them for that, it's just because of their fiery nature. In any case, for me she was by far the most attractive character from AL, that DPC wrote her like that is not her fault.

But my MC has probably enough to do with Bella for the time being and a quick death by a rusty ax compared to being burned also sounds far more attractive.

I had no idea you could even change it

Yeah, it's under the setting app on your phone. You can select a different avatar, change your name, change your rooster handle, etc.

 

[dalli_x]

dalli_x sees alot of things dude! not all of them exist! damm i wanna taste a bit of whatever he is having it seems out of this world!

herm 2 times already with maya did you not do the hang out?

thats a call back to Leah from Al a warning that if you fuck up you go up in smoke!

Hey buddy. DPC changed, I think it was EP6, the date.

If you didn't smoke so much stuff you would notice something like that.

 

[Icekatana]

You don't change Tremolo? I'm currently going with DIKenya. I like to switch it up for my different light side/dark side characters, but I do try to always use a DIK prefix to keep with our frat syntax.

Mine is currently "LikeAHorse" on my DIK playthrough. I also gave him the sunglasses avatar. It adds a little fun.

Thumb up to well made Casiope's DIK Walkthrough

I'm encouraged by all of these numbers. Unlike some people, I'm not going to complain about more content. I find the large number of added music really exciting. DPC knows how to add fitting music and I'm continually surprised by how much of a difference it makes. Recently played Summer's Gone and it has really good music too.

 

[dalli_x]

dallix is fuelled by shrooms and monster energy to give us 100 reasons why Sage will have a threesome with Chad and Troy even though they're gay

Who says they are gay? Maybe they are BI?

And porcini mushrooms are delicious!!!

And porcini mushrooms are delicious!!!

But you shouldn't smoke them if possible.

 

[Jimayo]

You eat shrooms. You don't smoke 'em.

well i played through all of that and now i have diarrhea. Congratulations on making another shitty teen drama, now my ptsd from all those days i was forced to watch degrassi and shallow af mtv is flaring up - i was in remission! i hope you're happy...

some constructive criticism or i guess feedback... as a guy i will say that playing as another guy with a 12ft long vagina was very jarring. even with max dik score (really?) a lot of the decisions and things you are forced to make leave you sounding like Orpah. not taking that picture in chapter 7 because women aren't trophies/objects was bullshit, especially when they are selling their bodies, also needing a massive dick to be in porn c'mon... I don't appreciate being punished for pursuing multiple women either, like i'm just trying to experience the game. i get that women don't like it when you cheat on them that's just reality, but this isn't reality this is college very tropey college and i don't appreciate some magical plot device panties that showed up magically offscreen cockblocking me from a girl ive been working on for like 5 fucking chapters, Isabella how do you even know what Cathy's panties look like? melodrama is lame, i get it's not over with her because of the foreshadowing but i don't play this shit. the whole free roam thing is annoying too "but it's content!" true but i don't consider wandering around aimlessly for 3 hours like some kind of moron to be fun, navigating this game is not fun. tank god for the music slider.

story was like american pie if a very insecure women wrote the script. i'm sure i'll regret this.

But eating porcini mushrooms rarely gets you high.

I don’t remember that shit about not taking a picture because of trophies… what was that all about?

Cathy’s panties were obvious at the time, as soon as she took them off I was like, “You’re gonna leave them in the car aren’t you…”, so my proactive MC threw them in the bin before returning the car.

I don’t think there’s anyone here who appreciates DPC’s complete and utter lack of ability in navigating rooms. I wonder how he manages in his own home. I get the impression he walks around backwards a lot.

If you didn’t enjoy the mild drama of this game, I suggest you steer clear of the developers older game, Acting Lessons, PTSD was shared by all.

 

[thorin0815]

i don't appreciate some magical plot device panties that showed up magically offscreen cockblocking me from a girl ive been working on for like 5 fucking chapters, Isabella how do you even know what Cathy's panties look like?

Cathy was most likely the only woman besides Bella who was in the car at the time in question. How and more important why the thing ended up there, however, I would also like to know.

Ah, that was possible? It's been a while since I played it and to be honest, I can't even remember her undressing in the first place. Probably because of my biblical age.

It wasn't an official option...

 

[lemonfreak]

Te reason for Cathy removing her panties for a blowjob remains is as yet unknown, other than as a clumsily implemented game mechanic whereby continued pursuit of sidegirls will negatively impact your pursuit of main girls.

She had been drinking all evening and was likely drunk. No further explanation needed.

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

Still doesn't explain why she felt the need to remove her panties when all she did was go down on MC. That was just DPC wanting to punish those getting in some side girl action while pursuing Bella.

 

[lemonfreak]

Haven't replayed but didn't Bella find them in the glove compartment? That feels a little suspect, if it were simply a case of being drunk wouldn't she have left them in the footwell?

Or not punish himself by having to account for that variable in later builds?

Assuming that you, like me and probably most others, have microwaved your underwear while drunk ... same thing.

Never done it while drunk but I have done so to make them toastie on a cold morning

She was hoping for some reciprocal action from the mc, but she made the mistake of taking them of before giving the mc a blowjob.

The dude was getting blown while trying to drive a car (something he rarely does - drive a car that is, being blown is not an experience that he's underachieving in).

Is he gonna remember sometime as subtle as a girl removing her underwear in his car when he's struggling to focus on the road? Obviously not, otherwise Bella wouldn't have caught him. Plus he didn't return the favour, so Cathy missed out.

If she removed them after they arrived at her house, the mc would have gotten the hint loud and clear.

Actually no. She took them off as a plot device to fuck you up later. That is all there is to it!

That's pretty much the deal with every RenPy game that has some sort of 1st/3rd person freeroam environments. BaD's freeroam navigation is far from the worst I have encountered. It's greatly improved in later episodes by the inclusion of the quick navigation thumbnails, although the DIK mansion is still a fucking maze.
