after doing the 3 tasks he asks to go to derek's room, but nothing happensif u mean dareks closet thats his room its the event with sally in there.
if your using a modded save its broken if not sally should be in there for you to talk to and push story forward.after doing the 3 tasks he asks to go to derek's room, but nothing happens
You could probably swap the keg+cup for speaker+music, which will result in no change in Jacob's needs, but you will fullfill another of Derek's wishes (2 speakers) and save some money. Note, fulfilling only 2 objectives causes a DIK to lose some happiness, so it might be better to aim for 3+ for everyone, instead of 4 for some at the cost of 2 for others.Does anyone have a better strategy?

It's not the content itself annoyed me .... when people waited for so long 4 an update they have certain expecations like plot advancing , characters development , etc ; and this ep falls short on both of them XDDamn, looks like I'm in the minority who liked Episode 9.
I can't call it the best, it doesn't come close to the mind-blowing Ep.7 and 8, but it's just good. Just a different feeling, a different experience.
It looks like the DPC is experimenting with different mechanics and decided to make a giant party with 70% free roam. This episode was meant to be relaxing fun in Being a DIK canon, but DPC didn't take that there is a group that doesn't like free roams, mini-games and wants the story to continue as soon as possible.
It would be nice to do a poll on Episode 9 and see the average opinion.
It's randomized every time, so it's not a perfect strategy every playthrough.Does anyone have a better strategy?

That's interesting. And do you know when it's determined which board you get? Because I seem to get the same one all the time.u know what makes it sadder thats the bis board for getting the x8 and its modded to hell.
If you fullfill 3 need from each dik you will get a S ranking.Does anyone have a better strategy?

After a year of waiting DPC could send every player a real hooker to blow them and they'd still complain her knees were too sharp.It's not the content itself annoyed me .... when people waited for so long 4 an update they have certain expecations like plot advancing , characters development , etc ; and this ep falls short on both of them XD
that makes sense, and i hope people dont think my criticism is leveled at the technical quality and attention to detail. i agree that on many levels, DPC is leagues ahead of most of the rest of the market for these types of games/stories.The issue is ambition. Two things to consider:
1) Technical quality and attention to detail. It's easy to get spoiled, but there's so much work evident in these renders and animations that it's mind boggling that one person can produce all this content.
2) So many characters on screen! This update was dominated by large party scenes with 10 or more characters in foreground and background. This makes it extremely challenging from a computational standpoint. Updates featuring scenes with fewer characters would likely feel 'longer', because it would be so much easier to render simple scenes.
So, there was a noticeable tradeoff in development time to meet these goals and to make it 'feel' like a party. I think DPC succeeded in his goal. Whether that was worthwhile appears to be contentious among the players.
fair points all around. but if he cant keep his own ideas focused on the end game, each episode will be bigger and more bloated than the one before it. and the bigger and more complex each episode is, the higher chance that a larger number of people will experience something to find fault in/criticize/be upset about.The episodes are just huge, plus a visual upgrade, which is why the waiting time has grown so much. It seems that this is a disease of all non-linear VNs - they grow in size due to the increase in the probabilities of events. Think of it as a multiverse, where every potential choice creates a new reality.
Yes, it's a problem, I agree. She has a solution, for example, more powerful hardware, I have already talked about this many times.
But no matter what happens, I remain interested in the project, despite the many dramatic things in real life that detract from it. Should a person be distracted by something positive?
I read various arguments of the dissatisfied. Someone complains that there are no sex scenes with Vixens (girls from the hostel).
Someone does not like mini-games and free-roams, someone does not like that there is not enough continuation of the story. And someone is furious about the quest room (actually it's easy).
For example, I do not like that there are few scenes from LI on Episode. Only 2-3, I would like more. But I understand that it is impossible, it would make the episode even more huge.
A very diverse and demanding audience. It's impossible to please everyone.
Man, I wish I knew how open Sage is (only done Sage only route of chapter 9 so far).This update made me even more confused about sage .Like so shes cool with u fucking all the hots ? So i shouldnt be worried about buying the restaurant anymore ? And can i have made out with riona no problem or is she a threesomes only type ? Also that means we get closer to a hots orgy on a sage route ?
It wasn't a hexagram, it was a Star of David. That and snow decor has been randomly appearing in the forum tonight.What are you refering to? There is no hexagram above your avatar. You don't even have an avatar. Trolling much?
Was thinking the same thing on the rusty part thought the same about getting jacob with the mcs ex. Seems like they really click but thats too close to ntr for alot of fansSoooo, this are my thoughts (For anyone interested)
- The Update was overwhelmingly short. I would have expected to be bigger, considering the amount of time DPC took to create it. This has been, in my opinion, the weakest of all episodes in regards to length.
- The sandboxing was EXHAUSTING. It wasn't as bad at previous parties, but in this episode, this mechanic was abused.
- Vinnie is exactly how I suspected him to be. I was hoping we saw him more during the episode.
- The reunion with the Burkes? It seemed to be a HUGE deal last episode, I was expecting more content.
-In Bella's path, in kinda broke me how quick she was willing to leave Tremolo if that's what Jill wanted. Her content was good though. And once again, DPC makes us suffer on her path, we still don't have that much info about her husband.
- I felt very bad for Rusty. I wish there was a change we could hook him up with Jill (if we're not on her path) or someone else.
- Quinn solo path: Was incredibly sweet and broccoli. You can tell she appreciates it if you're not seeing someone else, she clearly cares about Tremolo.
- The implication that Rio might be a potential serious LI (She seems to reconsider after a talk with MC, and she says she's not 'rooting for his relationship to succeed'), and Heather might be available in the future gave me life.
- Derek remains the freaking best, without a doubt. What a gorgeous man.
