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

[NewTricks]

Just because you are playing through as a chick doesn't mean that you can't be a dick. At the party, you can chat with Josy every chance you get. Tell her and Maya that they shouldn't fight. Watch her hang out like a third wheel while Maya licks Sage's pussy all night. Take flirty pictures with her. Comfort her when a guy calls her a bitch (or throw his ass out of the party if you are into neutral decisions). Make sure she wins the costume contest. Then at the end of the night you still haul her into the library where you confessed your love to her and tell her that both she and Maya put together aren't better than the dumb bitch who came to the party dressed as a fucking banana. That you and the banana are going to run off into the sunset and make banana babies. Tough luck Josy. Can we still be friends, though?

A couple reasons Quinn definitely likes the MC... her initial reaction to him passing out in her dorm... she lets her guard down and you see how part of her likes this...

And in the last episode, when you spend the night with her, after a lot of sex, you're getting ready to go to sleep, you spoon her and hug her and her reaction to this very romantic moment (and it is, done this a lot with my late wife) was very telling when she suddenly turns around to face the MC and looks into his eyes then kisses him deeply... that's a VERY loving response, again, I experienced this a lot in my life...

Deep down Quinn is still just an insecure little girl. That's why I have high hopes for her story arc.

Is it possible for Jill to reject you in ep 8 in the last scene with Tybalt, after you went with her to dinner with her friends? If so, can anyone please share the save file? I think it would make for an interesting ep9.

Yes I believe it is. I've been toying with the idea for a few days. With the way her route is structured I truly don't see how DPC could write a way back in. You need to avoid being a DIK for most of the run but there are chances to lock in DIK affinity before the third date so she refuses you.

 

[shazba]

Not complaining really, don't get me wrong, I LOVE THE GAME... played most of the routes I know of. I would still like to do Jade, but the game gives you a choice on some paths, meet Jade, or meet someone else... which I hate. Should be an option to phone her at least and make the date another day which would be reasonable. But to have her flip out on you and blame you when she hit on YOU... even that doesn't bother me so much as that I am not given the option to either A: take her bullshit and kiss her ass or B: Tell her off... could even be a C: Apologize and reignite your affair... but to have her treat you like it is ALL YOUR FAULT when clearly she started it all and have your character just stand there while his dick shrivels up? I did find that annoying. Same with the MC not giving Tommy a shot in the head for the bullshit Vinny put you through.

Again, LOVE LOVE LOVE this game... but I do see areas where it could be improved... be nice to see the MC grow a new set of balls and quit taking some of the bullshit, but maybe that will come later... I can hope. Good game otherwise, seriously, the good FAR outweighs the bad (no game is perfect and I have yet to create anything better myself, so...).

I should try your suggestion and have no sexual encounter but... I simply don't have that sort of superhuman willpower!!! The little head takes over my thinking at that point!

One of my customers was telling me that he recently went through a messy divorce. His wife cheated on him. Once everything was aired, his wife was hoping he'd forgive her and they'd move on, she was acting all nice and shit, and he said, pretty much, "No fucking way!" and a switch just flipped for her. She immediately turned into a raging cunt, swearing and yelling at him like he was the worst guy in the world.

There's a real life example of a cunt of a woman trying to make her fucking affair seem like it was his fault. In the end he tried to be fair with their asset split, because he's a good guy, and she ended up getting more than half (her sister is a fucking lawyer).

Women can be lovely. They can also be total fucking psychos. And it doesn't have to be a different woman to exhibited both traits.

They don't say, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." for nothing!

How the hell did Banana Jill win the contest?!

The dude dressed as a chick deserved it more than that.

Yes, it surprises me that the crowd voted for Jill if MC nominated her.
View attachment 2280351

Even though I hated Jill in her banana outfit (I mean if your girlfriend shows up to a raunchy Halloween party in such an outfit, you can't get frisky or anything!), she definitely stood out the most.

Leon... was the ugliest looking dude in drag I've seen! I found it hard to even look at him!

And all the other outfits were kinda forgettable.

So the prize for best outfit really could have gone to anyone.

All the outfits were kinda disappointing really.

Sorry i'm giving you that impression, but i assure you i've read it all. You can read back this conversation and you'll see my answers strictly replying the post before and clear to the point. At one point you even quoted me twice, one quote from my answer to Dalli, that was strictly about Vinnie's behavior towards specifically MC alone.

As for Vinnie's motive to all his actions, i'll summon it up clearly...

You think his motive is a grudge towards the Diks, he even carries a gun and his behavior is although irrational, a good possibility, since we know the villain of Acting Lessons was like that.

I think his motive is drugs trade, carrying a gun is more likely in that trade and since economics is what drives him, it's a rational motive. Furthermore we don't need to look for hints outside this game...

I can agree with you he might have some scores to settle with at least some of the Diks, but we only really know from the game that he and Tommy don't get along. We also know Vinnie has no problem selling drugs to Tommy...
Or better : economic reasons seem to matter more than his grudge towards Tommy....
We also know from the game Vinnie has scores to settle with the Jocks and with Quinn....

Most of this i said in my post answering your post that specifically was about Vinnie's grudge against the Diks.
I was under the impression that was sufficient and did not assume we were still discussing that.

Vinny definitely had a single minded purpose for being there. He wasn't just randomly reminiscing. The fact that he respected Tommy's request to leave means that whatever bad blood there was between Tommy and Vinny wasn't driving his actions.

He's definitely looking for something.

Nick searching the library during the Cathy Cluck is related.

The mansion trashing is related.

Now Vinny's shown up to do his own dirty work. We just don't exactly what he's looking for.

Just because you are playing through as a chick doesn't mean that you can't be a dick. At the party, you can chat with Josy every chance you get. Tell her and Maya that they shouldn't fight.

This game finds a way to make you a heartless asshole no matter how you play it.

Is there an easy way to break up with a girl who still really likes you?

If you have to do it, you have to do it, you can't just put it off and make it worse.

The biggest asshole thing the mc did (and it's our choice) was to get so close to so many girls at the same time.

It's one thing to go on a few dates with a few different girls to see if you like them more, but by the end of episode 8, at the point where the mc had to make his decision, he was potentially in full blown relationships with 5 girls.

And if we got there, that was our choice.

And out of all the girls Josy is probably the one who loves the MC the most. I would even say Zoey still loves him immeasurably and is a close second, if not an equal.

I agree with the Josy point. Even other characters are commenting on how into him she is. Even if they broke it off with him in episode 4, Josy is still carrying a torch for him.

 

[DanMotta]

She will still taser you, only it will be your dick and balls that get the attention this time.

Jokes on her, that's just another fetish of my MC.

And out of all the girls Josy is probably the one who loves the MC the most. I would even say Zoey still loves him immeasurably and is a close second, if not an equal.

I will agree on that, but when Quinn falls for MC 100%, there will be no other like her. Untill DPC kill her.

 

[beastyoda]

does anyone have a season two save file mine got corrupted, and really would rather avoid having to redo all of season 1 and 2

 

[NewTricks]

And out of all the girls Josy is probably the one who loves the MC the most. I would even say Zoey still loves him immeasurably and is a close second, if not an equal.

Yes. In every one of my playthroughs, even the ones where you break up with Maya and her in the library, Josy doesn't give up. She even asks in this update if you think about if things had been different. She is haunted by this prospect. For some reason, the walkthrough wants you to tell her that things were doomed from the start but she disagrees. She is a persistent little thing, and the only truly joyful playthrough I've had so far was staying with her and Maya.

Spoiler: You have to be made of stone to not want this cuteness in your life. Look at how fucking happy she is!

I'll add some of my observations. Quinn likes MC, even if he's Chick/Neutral, not in a romantic way, but her attitude is definitely friendly. In case if you are Neutral/Chick she is not interested in MC for sex or possible relationships, but some describe her as an MC's antagonist , which is completely wrong. Yes, they do not agree on everything, Tremolo doesn't like her attacks on Maya, but still they find a common language and work together on a party.
They easily start small talk and even when she behaves like this:

This is a friendly tease, but not a hostile attitude. Her body language and emotions suggest that she is friendly with Tremolo. Tremolo's calm reaction speaks volumes. It's typical Quinn, teasing someone she likes is her defense mechanism. She doesn't want to look like the "fragile" she is deep inside.

Next, a moment of heart-to-heart talk with Tommy on the roof. Quinn is frightened when Tommy mentions the gun threat.

She doesn't want anyone to get hurt, this reaction comes when Tommy mentions that Tremolo was under threat. That's not how you react to people you don't care about. I also think this is the first moment that Quinn realized in her heart that a life of crime was not for her. She doesn't want people to get hurt because of it. People who believe in another villainous plan of Quinn with psychological manipulation can pass by. Someone may still see her as the main villain, but this is flat earth's level nonsense.

And the last moment, this one. A person who can't stand you won't hug you like that. Screenshot taken at Neutral Affinity, not Quinn route of course.

A person hostile to you would keep his distance. Quinn usually does this, for example, at first she doesn't like Lily and avoids her in Ep.6-7, after the situation with Maya she generally resists accepting her in sorority and does everything for Maya doesn't change her mind. (Her hostility towards Maya and why she's bullied her is still a mystery to me).
My conclusion is that Quinn is not currently the MC's antagonist and is in any case positive about him at the time of Episodes 8-9.

Even though I hated Jill in her banana outfit (I mean if your girlfriend shows up to a raunchy Halloween party in such an outfit, you can't get frisky or anything!), she definitely stood out the most.

Leon... was the ugliest looking dude in drag I've seen! I found it hard to even look at him!

And all the other outfits were kinda forgettable.

So the prize for best outfit really could have gone to anyone.

All the outfits were kinda disappointing really.

I think I would burn with shame if my girlfriend came to the party in such a costume, it would be terribly embarrassing.

Drag queen Leon is at least funny, Tommy's constant teasing and reaction to Leon's victory... I almost burst into tears from laughter. I have the same trollface as Quinn in the screenshot above.

Really? You didn't like any of the costumes? As for me, many were very cool, I even made a list, well, this is subjective:

Heya!

So, uhm, I finally got around to play Ep. 9 and pretty much missed out on all the pages in this thread since release, so I don't know if this has been mentioned before, if it's a known issue, or something entirely on my end.

Anyway, I was wondering if others have been getting massive input lag playing the new episode? By that I mean huge delays during the freeroam event while hovering the cursor over interactive objects like doors, characters etc. I didn't have any issue with season 1,2 and the interlude, but for some reason the new episode is giving me trouble. It takes somewhere around 5-10secs for the objects I hover my cursor over to actually get highlighted, and even when clicking on things it takes several seconds before something happens, making it a real pain to navigate through the freeroam. It's hard to explain, but I guess "delay" is the best explanation I can come up with.

I'm currently in the basement doing the puzzle thingie, and the flashlight is completely bugging out. I even deactivated the "special effects" option in the menu, so now instead of a flashlight, the basement is fully lit...uhm...I'm also kinda stuck at the cage part, but that might just be me not getting what the fuck I'm supposed to do there. lol

Anyway, everything else besides the issues mentioned works perfectly fine. Animations, dialogue, minigames in MC's phone, rooster etc. All working perfectly fine. Maybe someone knows whats causing it and can help me out?

Cheers

Agreed. I'm a big softy Jill fan and I've found Quinn to be detestable through the first 8 chapters with how awfully she's treated people. But that conversation with Tommy made her gain quite a few points with me. She showed genuine concern for people and she actually came around to apologizing to Tommy (after a rare bout of Wisdom from Tommy of all people). It's a step in the right direction, and I'm getting redemption arc vibes from her.

Seasons 1 & 2, I'd definitely consider her an antagonist. Nearly all of the issues challenging the HOTs, DIKs and even Preps and Alphas to some degree can all be traced back to her. And she's got some serious shit to account for in regards trying to turn the HOTs into a prostitution ring, coercing pledges into participating in it, and keeping the money to herself. So she's not out of the "piece of shit" category. She's still pretty fucking deep in it.. but she might still be able to fix things.

I don't know about the lag, beyond the flashlight moments that weren't very fluid for me either.

For the key in the cage, assuming you have read the note on the door (at least I think it's a requeriment), you need to click on the cage, then click the arrow pointing up that will appear if you move the cursor towards that area, and then you will find the key on top of one of the horizontal bars as you can see here.

 

[луна]

My personal ranking of women's Halloween costumes. It was quite difficult to decide, there are a lot of cool outfits, some of which support the boner, others are more from an aesthetic point of view. Some looked cringe, but about them separately.

1.Without any doubt, this is Quinn costume. It is a pity that she is a member of the jury and you can not vote for her. The sexy succubus just blew this place up. Badass, hot and artistic at the same time.
View attachment 2253733
Oh yeah, and those claws are pretty good to prank Sally.
View attachment 2253734

2. Riona. Feline good tonight? Cute and sexy kitty. And Sage said that Rio put a lot of effort into making this costume. View attachment 2254356
View attachment 2254361

3.Zoey as a demon. She looks good in revealing latex and this Venetian carnival mask. Original. The best eye makeup of all, well, except that Lily can compete on this point.
View attachment 2254373
View attachment 2254374

4.Josy the petite fairy. I know she and Maya both wear the same costumes, but it fits Josy better. And for the first time we see Josy with her hair let go.
View attachment 2254376

View attachment 2254377

5. Lily. It's not exactly a Halloween costume, but I like the cool makeup and punk look. View attachment 2254379

Also noteworthy: Jill in a bee costume, Elena McTitty cowgirl, Bella the slutty mummy, and Sally, her costume leaves little to the imagination, boldly. Expected more from my girl Sage - a slutty schoolgirl is certainly sexy, but a little corny.

About cringe costumes: it's of course Swyper fat girl who tries to ruin the contest(seriously, who wears a Santa costume for Halloween)
But a winner for a most cringe costume is definitely this: View attachment 2254388
What the fuck is she wearing? (c) Sage
Jill when MC on her route. Just...why?
First, why are the costumes different, why doesn't she dress the bee in this case?
Secondly, did she decide to humiliate her boyfriend, who hangs out in the company of cool guys? Or is this DPC trolling and he doesn't like Jill... I don't know.
Ind third.... JILL, BANANA IT'S A JOSY'S THING! YOU STOL HER SUBJECT! HOW DO I LOOK AT JOSY PLAYING WITH A BANANA IN THE LIBRARY WHEN I KNOW THIS IS WAITING FOR ME?

This was my list of costumes. Which costumes did you like the most, and which caused facepalm?

Good ranking, for me Elena´s costume was one of the best.

You know, one can be concerned about someone doing stupid shit like pulling a gun on someone without having good relations with whoever was the victim of it. Her expression might be simply "holy shit, what a mess, did anything bad actually happened". At least, as a non-Quinn route guy I didn't read it as concern for MC beyond regular human reaction for situation like that.

8% CPU usage, 35% RAM usage, 3% GPU usage. My computer is more than capable of running VN's, so I'm not sure what's causing this. Maybe the installation is corrupted or something. It's super weird. I'm running any other game and VN without any issues at all. Oh well.

Really? You didn't like any of the costumes? As for me, many were very cool, I even made a list, well, this is subjective:

Agreed. I'm a big softy Jill fan and I've found Quinn to be detestable through the first 8 chapters with how awfully she's treated people. But that conversation with Tommy made her gain quite a few points with me. She showed genuine concern for people and she actually came around to apologizing to Tommy (after a rare bout of Wisdom from Tommy of all people). It's a step in the right direction, and I'm getting redemption arc vibes from her.

Seasons 1 & 2, I'd definitely consider her an antagonist. Nearly all of the issues challenging the HOTs, DIKs and even Preps and Alphas to some degree can all be traced back to her. And she's got some serious shit to account for in regards trying to turn the HOTs into a prostitution ring, coercing pledges into participating in it, and keeping the money to herself. So she's not out of the "piece of shit" category. She's still pretty fucking deep in it.. but she might still be able to fix things.

Quinn likes messing with people, and the mc is easy to mess with, Mel & Sarah also note this.

But if you go back to the CUMPetition, if the mc let’s it progress to them having sex, and comments that she’s gonna have to take it deeper if she wants him to get off, her response is something like, “I knew I liked you for a reason”. So she’s already casually liked the mc from the get go.

Regarding Quinn’s response to the gun threat, I don’t think that shows too much. It’s a very serious thing to be threatened with a gun, nothing on that level has happened to the characters as far as we know. If I told some people at work, “Hey my friend had some dude threaten him with a gun yesterday.” Everyone would be like, “Holy shit! Is he alright!?”

As far as Tommy and Quinn reconciling, when one of your friends is threatened with a gun, it helps put what matters into perspective. They’ve been good friends for at least a year, their split was more to do with pride than anything else, but what happened with Vinny in the library, that was really serious.

As far as Quinn not wanting the mc to get hurt, straight after the mc tells her he faced off with Vinny, she asks him to accompany her to her next cash drop (pretty sure that’s what she’s getting at, since she asked how good he is at fighting and she’s worried about getting mugged again). If she really cared for his well being, the last thing she’d do is start to involve him in her shady shit.

And back to the costumes. For me, Halloween costumes should be ghosts, goblins, vampires, undead, all that kinda shit. I never get it that Americans (and maybe other cultures) dress up as firemen, princesses, astronaughts etc. It doesn’t make any sense to me. Tara’s last minute ghost sheet was more appropriate than like 80% of the costumes there.

I didn’t hate the costumes, but none of them really appealed to me. And Quinn’s kinda looked like more effort than I’d expect her to bother with.
