I am not so sure that Swyper and the pink rose girls are to be considered so safe.

Cathe has to be considered a girl si Swyper, since her courtship can only start that way, and in fact may cost us Bella.

Nora continues to be a loose cannon and sooner or later she will have some effect, even if she is just another BR teacher she will hardly be so harmless

about the pink rose for now has gone quite well, but Nicole and even more so Lily, are too close to the BR dynamics to be of no consequence.
I think to myself so Casiope is right in some ways. If the MC is DIK by affinity, it doesn't matter if he fucks around with others because Jill, Josy and Maya will reject the MC. If the MC takes it too far, sooner or later Sage and Isabella will also leave the MC alone.

But the players who want a pure porn game will probably be happy with the Others branch and the only consequence there will be is that the MC won't get a Li.

You are actually describing the view of an adult game with sexual content. Of course the side girls and fooling around with them will bring consequences. A DIK MC doesn't care, but a CHICK MC not.

But affinity doesn't have much to do with how much Mc fuck around....
a Chick player is precluded from only Quinn, the restaurant and the beginning with Nicole are single major DIK-type choices, which might be the exception in a CHICK path, however

the point is that except for the occasional episode in the early chapters (I'm thinking of the bathroom adventures with Mona and Camilla or Sara and Melanie) every other relationship will take its toll, not with all LIs, but with some it is likely

I don't see these areas of impunity, of free rein in BADIK.

on the discourse of players who choose others, they play BADIK exactly like those who make any other choice, only they are looking, at least in that run, for something different, but it is the same difference between those who choose Sage or Bella or M&J or Jill. different flavors of the same ice cream shop

The benefit of having already eight episodes hints on how DrPinkCake is creating Being a DIK. We know that he loves the scoring system, whether for Hell Week or for getting points with Bella, but (and here I agree with Ename) that he takes care not to display the relationship points nor to warn of consequences.

An imperfect playthrough does not mean failure because there is a margin of error and appreciation left to the player. Only characters who are in direct opposition (Jill / Quinn, Maya and Josy / Jade, Isabella / Cathy, etc.) are mutually exclusive. But given the number of girls, breakups remain limited, although not always predictable.

I doubt that it will be necessary to multiply the games beyond the choice imposed during the crossroads because the temptation of a pornographic game is to diversify the scenes. It is conceivable that the creator will radically change his way of writing so that the main character's only interest will now be his girlfriend, but this romantic ideal never existed in the first two seasons. DrPinkCake has let us enjoy some cheating provided they are not significant enough.

Why play against the title?
The title is BaDIK.
who cares to being a pussy-CHICK? :cool:
Personally for me understand DIK and CHICK a little differently. A DIK is for me a teenager and CHICK an adult.

The MC himself said in his speech from EP5 that college is actually meant to mature from a teenager to an adult. Jacob said a little later to the MC why it took so long for him to become an adult. So for me personally, the goal setting is clearly defined.

When the MC comes to B&R he is either DIK, NEUTRAL or CHICK. If he continues to be a DIK what Jacob said will happen. "Why it took so long for him to grow up." He will become a Massive DIK. This implies to me that something dramatic could happen to the DIK MC.

In contrast, a NEUTRAL or CHICK MC at the end of EP8 is also a DIK, only more moderate. He also parties but can still behave and when he is drunk funny shit will happen.

But everyone should play BaDIK the way he personally wants.

Laugh, you blindmen, laugh at the brave sir Magnar while you can. You'll never know who the true mastermind behind all these recent events is until it's too late. Do you really think that Burke, Quinn, Vinny and others are so independent and act of their own free will that there is not an evil genius in charge of all of this? Anyway, when you are surrounded by pussies, the best way to hide is to pretend to be one of them. So, Magnar is at the right tier now ;)
Well hell... Magnar The Great being some evil criminal mastermind that even has Quinn squirming and sucking his kahuna would certainly be an unexpected and possibly fun way to spice up the game. :PogChamp:

I've been wondering...... DPC has been waiting over a month to finish around 40 animations. Why doesn't he add a render farm if he refuses to hire employees? His PCs and a render farm would genuinely speed things up.
If people keep cleaning his anal canal, why would he? He has 4 pc, with how much money he makes he could rent an office building just for his farm and probably write of most of the cost as business expenses, if 4 pcs are too much for his humble rustic cottage. But anyone with more than a brain cell understands that the only thing stopping DPC from speeding up development is himself.

Yes, I think DPC should have called the normal scale something else and not Chick or DIK. This is always confused with affinity.

Affinity determines the MC's basic attitude and feeds into the MC's everyday decisions, so some everyday decisions can't be made.

What you mean by free rein is the player's decision. If the player prefers a porn game, he is playing a massive DIK. Of course there will be consequences, but the player shouldn't care because he chose it. So he has his permissiveness. It's like your ice cream parlor. However, the sweet tooth decides whether he wants a lemon ice cream or chocolate ice cream. If he wants something sour, he orders the lemon ice cream.

But if the player wants to have a happy ending with a LI, he should consider some things. I am not thinking so much about the RP's, but more about the character traits of the LI.

Well, I'm not so sure. I honestly think that Seasons 1 and 2 told us that the most important lesson in this story is that choices always have consequences. Bad choices will have dire consequences.

I have the feeling that what you decided to do / not to do in the toilets during the midterm exams in ep. 8 will have an impact, for instance.

Yes it's porn, but we still follow the story of the evolution of the MC's relationship with the 5 LIs. And it's not a harem, so we know very well that we will have to choose (which is done in episode 8). And we suspect that after a while, with the evolution of the relationship between the MC and the LI, the question of the exclusivity of the relationship will arise.

On the other hand, it is obvious that we are not going to go from eight episodes where the MC fucks everyone, to an episode 9 where if he has chosen an LI, he becomes monogamous or becomes unfaithful with the risk of losing the LI .

It will be progressive and different according to each LI.


For the moment with M+J, it's no strings attached. So, we can continue with the sides girls without any problem. Apart from obvious red flag like Quinn, it is the relationship with an LI that is most explicitly defined, so no risk for the moment.

Bella, as far as I can remember there is no "label" to their relationship. But, we've seen what happens if Bella finds out what the MC did with Katie. Their relationship (if chosen in episode 8) is more advanced than in Katie's time, so it would potentially be more serious.

Sage, since the majority of side girls are HOT, it can make the transition (to an exclusive relationship) smooth and smooth, or conversely complicate things.

With Jill, there is a very naive and romantic side, not really compatible with an MC who continues to do what he does.


In fact the big question is how DPC will manage this? We must maintain a minimum of coherence with the characters and the story. On the other hand, he can't make the MC monogamous overnight with the only option being faithful or unfaithful.

For episode 9, on a Bella run and on a Jill run, I think we will have to be careful.


and I'm not even talking about all the choices for eight episodes that could come back to cause us problems...

Maybe two reasons. At first there aren't farms doing DAZ rendering so far I'm know. Blender, SketchUp, Houdini, Unreal and so on but no DAZ Studio. But if I'm wrong and there would be a service the second reason might be it cost him money he could safe by doing it himself.

Which is in your opinion the most annoying direction the game could go after being force into a choice at the halfway point of the story, that you are not allowed to sample anymore, thus turning the game more boring, or the fact that DPC will probably force artificial drama onto the people that hope their relationships grows?

For me, increasing wait times aside, S3 will break, or make this game, because I will have a hard time still justifying it being in my favorites list if it goes(continue to go) in the direction that I predict it going, especially with so many of the new blood devs getting better and better in terms of art and output.

There are some. I was curious, and I checked it out. I believe he could put the cost as a business expense. Even if he doesn't want to buy a farm for the entire development of the episode, he could just use a farm for a month or two for those final animations.

You are also right about that.

However, you should look at the game from the player's point of view and not from the MC's point of view. Personally, if you want to have a nice story where there are few dramatic scenes, then play BaDIK that way.

It's just like in real life. There are people who don't care about connections. They might be in a relationship and see a hot girl they really want to have sex with. Then they get caught, the girlfriend leaves them, and they find a new girlfriend. If you want to have that in BaDIK, you can play that way too.

DPC actually serves two audiences.

you have this moral bias toward DIK affinity....

only a CHICK player can be found in this situation, and I don't think we can consider him a romantic dreamer:
screenshot0019.png

BADIK doesn't become something else depending on how you play it, the principle is always the same: whatever girl you meet is interested in you, each needs certain conditions to have a happy continuation (plus a whole series of more or less obvious traps), of course LIs have more content and a different centrality from side girls.

if she is a bad girl she will want different things from a good girl
this common ground is combined with everyone's tastes, shy girls, sassy girls, babes and MILFs....

i don't understand what you see wrong with the porn game label, which seems to only go well when it comes to the "lightness" of the plot, however whatever it is it is from start to finish

the only case where it is distorted is if you skipped all the dialogue and just saw the scenes, there in that case it is another game

The Vixens will be like the Pink Rose members and the Swiper crushes: a way to offer the player a kind of sexual liberation. The main character flirts with these ladies, sleeps with them, with no consequences or repercussions for the storylines. Until such time as these characters are part of the narrative or become a choice in their own respect.

Such behavior naturally tends towards DIK but is not that restricted (e.g. having sex with Madame Rose while being pure Chick). DrPinkCake may maintain this approach in the new season so as not to frustrate the player, now coupled with a loyalty score system - for those who have chosen a girlfriend - similar to Jill's jealousy.
Strictly speaking, a pure CHICK can't interact with Madame Rose since working at the Pink Rose requires a DIK Major Decision. I take your point, though.

As for the Vixens, it's certainly possible they'll just be more of the same, but I suspect they will have their own distinct niche: they can be malevolent. The HOTs are generally in alignment with the MC and the DIKs; even Quinn, while she obviously has her own agenda, would still prefer to avoid rocking their boat. Likewise the Pink Rose girls are professionals; they aren't going to waste time screwing around with a college fraternity if there's easier money to be made dancing.

The Vixens are an unknown, but they have the potential to operate differently. They may not worry about the wellbeing of the DIKs, nor about stepping on some other girl's toes. If they're the sort of people who enjoy watching things burn, they can deliberately shake up the story in a way the HOTs or PR girls couldn't. That might be especially important if the MC is supposed to be staying loyal, because it means they can be used as threats/temptations that work on all branches. Riona wouldn't make a move on Sage's boyfriend, for example, whereas the Vixens might be more interested in the MC specifically because he's supposed to be off-limits.

Now granted, this is me reading a lot into the Episode 9 teaser at the end of Season 3 (and the fact they're called 'Vixens'). It's entirely possible DPC is just adding more hot girls to the game and their behavior will be no different than the other side girls. But I'm trying to give DPC the benefit of the doubt here and assume there's a method to his madness.

Ugh. If DPC tries to claim there are still no strings on the M/J relationship after the crossroad, I'm going to bust out the torches and pitchforks.
