They usually release update patches so you don't have to download the whole game every update. I think the worst is going to be all those asking for the walkthrough mods to be updated all throughout the following week, just to have it delayed cause a bugfix patch came out.

Oh... OH... well.... damn. lol
(sorry, haven't kept up with the news)
I am not yet convinced ...You must be registered to see the links
Beta testing and proofreading have just started.
As soon as I know a little bit more, I can set a release date.
I'm aiming for a November release for the $25 tier, and that's all I can say at the moment.
If you base your pledge on the release date, please wait until the release date is final.
I know that everyone is excited; you should be, and I am too.
Please, be patient with us during this final phase, and the update will come faster.
Important information regarding patching
I will explain in the section below why I cannot supply a patch for this update.
What this means for v0.8.0 is that everyone will have to download the full game this time.
I haven't forgotten about the $5 patrons waiting for the patch. Anyone who pledges $5 in December 2021 and has pledged at least $15 total on Patreon during this year will get a DM with the links to the full update two weeks after release.
However, there won't be a post for any patch, and I will temporarily remove the $5 tier patch reward on release. When the first patch of Season 3 becomes available, this tier reward will return.
Detailed information
Now, why won't a patch be available?
To make a long story short, I have upgraded Ren'Py to the latest version to enable 64-bit Windows. The upgrade causes patching to be a nightmare, even for an above-average PC user, so I opted out of it this time.
The Ren'Py upgrade made the game run much smoother and become more responsive than before. When I saw the results, it was worth spending extra time to fix the deprecated functionality and issues that came from upgrading. This upgrade will most likely eliminate all weird out-of-memory bugs and remove most lag from your game.
All in all, you will notice the positive effects of upgrading the Ren'Py version. The only downside to upgrading the game to 64-bit is that 32-bit systems aren't supported anymore. Examples of 32-bit OS that won't be supported are Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows XP. That's the future for all Ren'Py games, not just Being a DIK.
Aside from upgrading Ren'Py, I have tested my save transfer system on Steam and tested a temporary new season 3 binary for Steam as well. It all went smoothly, and I am confident that my chosen way to continue developing the game will be feasible for Patreon and Steam.
So, that's very good news for the Being a DIK development in general.
What will happen now?
Testers and proofreader will get the time they need to test and play. I will fix any bugs and typos they find.
This update is big - something they all commented on after their first playthrough - and it will require several playthroughs to explore fully. When they test, they are also working against a checklist that I provide with tasks that need to be tested.
Testing will also cover earlier episodes to find any bugs from the Ren'Py upgrade.
We are working our hardest, but because of the Ren'Py upgrade and the size of the game, there might be new bugs we missed during testing; as always, I appreciate any bug reports players send my way.
Meanwhile, I will perform additional tests and continue to polish the game.
I will also prepare for the distribution of the Patreon version.
What can you as a player do to prepare?
You can ensure that your saves are up to date and that you have saved at the end of the episode 7 update, where the game tells you to save. Yes, your old saves will work without any issues as long as you did this.
You can make sure that you have enough disk space for the update.
The game will be approximately 19 GB when you extract it, meaning that you will need at least 40 GB of free disk space to download the game and extract it.
If you have any questions regarding all of this, I will do my best to answer you in the comment section below.
I apologize for any confusion; I tried my best to make this long text easy to understand.

Current version of the game (BaDIK v7.2) has ca. 14 GB size with more than 13 GB assets like images, movies, music, etc. (If you check your game folder for disk usage, be sure to exclude the save files.) Script file packages usually only have a few MB size.
An upgrade to new Ren'py 64 bit version should mostly affect the script files but not the assets. So why download 13 GB of assets again if they are already installed and probably won't be changed? Wouldn't it be sufficient to just overwrite all the script packages as in previous updates?

He is a main character and his last act is to sacrifice himself to save his son and kill the Emperor, so yes from a certain point of view.

He murdered hundreds of kids so his sacrifice was a bit of a death bed confession and didn't even matter canonicallyHe is a main character and his last act is to sacrifice himself to save his son and kill the Emperor, so yes from a certain point of view.

But Luke Skywalker doesn’t fuck him, so he’s still not a main LI… unless he’s Jill…He is a main character and his last act is to sacrifice himself to save his son and kill the Emperor, so yes from a certain point of view.
umm.. yea that was definetly weird choice of analogy... since darth vader might not be a 'hero' but definetly the main character of star wars movie series. ep. 1 to 6 it's all about darth vader to be honest..He is a main character and his last act is to sacrifice himself to save his son and kill the Emperor, so yes from a certain point of view.

I don't think this fits what we've seen of Quinn's actions thus far. She was willing to lie to Sage's face in Episode 4 to set up the prep party, taunt Sage about her wealthy upbringing, and then weasel out of actually informing the DIKs as Sage instructed. Hell, she even tried to set Mona up with Professor Burke right under Sage's nose! And all of this was before Chad broke up with Sage, so Sage should have been paying attention. More recently:
- She flipped off Maya even though Sage had specifically told her to mend fences if possible
- She sold drugs to KRJ during the HOT party
- She is only too happy to interrupt Sage fucking the MC with Riona (unless the MC is on Quinn's path)
But that's not fear: Quinn probably assumes, with her usual arrogance, that she's too good at pulling the wool over Sage's eyes to ever be caught. And if Sage ever did cotton on, Quinn probably thinks she could outmaneuver Sage by getting the other HOTs to help depose her (and Quinn might actually be right about that).
All that said, Quinn doesn't look particularly uncomfortable in the preview IMHO. So I'd say this is just her helping Sage tease the MC on a lark, and is taken from the non-Quinn-path version of the scene. I doubt it will end in a threesome.
We'll find out... soon (TM).
More proof that he's become a shameless milker!
My take was precisely that Quinn was ripping on the MC. Sage thought it was notable not because Quinn approved of the MC, but because Quinn wouldn't shut up about the MC.
You and me both!

You made me love Lily even more than I already do.
I was dejected when it appeared that Lily was becoming more friendly than adversarial with Quinn last episode. But if you're right and Lily just wants to worm her way in so she can mess with Quinn's mind while scoring some weed, then
Meanwhile, I'll just sit back and enjoy the schadenfreude. I suspect there will be a lot of that in the coming episodes with Quinn's drug empire. I just hope we can save Riona from the destruction. Also, DPC please don't nix the fights. It's a mini game feature that I actually like. I really want to have a rematch with Caleb and a fight with whoever is stalking Riona, if it's a dude. Oh and a fight with the traitor (Nick, we all know you're guilty, twat).
