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

[The Glorious LIME]

Have you noticed that Josy's reaction can be different when meeting Burke? This is the moment when Josy sees Tybalt for the first time towards Burke's apartment.
Look at this frame. Josy looks a little nervous and tense. Why? Yes, because MC was a boring CHICK and did nothing with Tybalt's phone, his presentation was rather dull, where he told stories "why welfare is bad" and called people from a presentable area "poor" . Nothing interesting happened at that presentation. And how can we cheer Josy up?

We have to ruin his presentation with a dick pic! Then Josy can't stop laughing and hides her face. How cute. MC is of course in complete shock, but you know ... IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT.

I did notice the difference in some of my runs, but I never pinpointed/gave it much thought on why, good to know.
If one is playing the Sage route and dik pic'd, I think at that moment she knew she had a partner in crime. I just don't know how it will effect her route in the long run if you take every chance to beat him up and hurt him. She hates him, but at the end of the day, he is her "brother".

 

[Roundell]

I don't reduce everything to affinity, but an MC who's with Jill is either Chick in the soul or schizophrenic. because whatever choice a player may make is still an MC who:
- practically proposed to her during the picnic
- and was so into her that soon afterwards he already started thinking about an exclusive relationship
- and that's why he gave up the risks that a date with Tommy might entail
-that when he had a moment of crisis he decided to continue fighting for her

plus many other poetic outbursts

now after going through all of this he suddenly has the temptation to touch the ass of Jill's best friend? who he barely knows and with Jill there by his side?

makes no sense to me at all, an obvious suicide and pure fan service

Without that kind of temptations, Jill's path would only be "We'll be happy forever with our future four children, tree golden retriever, six horses and two unicorns with rainbows in the horns". I think that scene it's just to bring "spice" to the story, but yes, it doesn't make any sense that he touches Bianca's ass literally two seconds after saying to everybody that Jill and him are an official couple. There should be another scene in which Bianca is alone with MC, he sees she's "receptive" and could decide to flirt with her or something like that. But that would mean another scene, more renders, music... So, DPC uses that sluggish narrative resource of using a scene that is already done and introduce that thing of touching or not the butt, even if it doesn't make any sense there.

That's exactly the level of attention to detail I was thinking, to be careful anough to make two different renders just for that, or like right now, I was ending Episode 9 Jill Path

so I think maybe if you were planning to murder him then MAYBE she would act a bit protective of his brother, but other than that I guess anything that is not a permanent damage or incidentally has an effect on their family would be fine for her.

Thats an example from a guide that was recently released by DPC.
"If you chose to banter with Tyballs in episode 6 on Tybalt’s cluck, by choosing “It's an orange one, he should get himself checked out.”, you get + RP Sage."

It looks like Sage really enjoys doing mean things to Tybalt. It is obvious that despite the fact that he is her brother, Sage has a disgust for him and this feeling is stronger than family ties.

Yes, I noticed this moment with Rusty. But he is a reserved and intelligent person, I think he can handle it. Rusty isn't as explosive as Tommy and I don't expect the kind of storm with him that awaits if you're on the Josy and Maya route.

Bless you people for these findings.

 

[den_tiger]

Speaking of Rusty, some endings show him singing the walk of shame with the others, while in other endings he was missing and it's only Leon, Tommy and JB. What's the determining factor?

 

[alex13_zen]

Guys just to know since I haven't played the new chapter yet.. why some characters have a different face? Just from seeing some pictures at these comments im wondering if that's actually real or not..
(Like Sage for example)

Dunno the reason but I was wondering the same about Josy, her face isn't quite as beautiful as in earlier episodes.

Mediocre party makeup, ugly hair, dimmed lighting. That's what comes to mind.

But my friend, IRL good people do bad stuff that hey regret later on. To simplify the complexity of MC's character because he's supposedly madly in love with Jill is a disservice. You can deeply love someone and still hurt her feelings beyond repair. Schizophrenia is a serious illnes that has nothing to do with a VN MC who thought he loved someone deeply but strayed on her best friends ass. you know people do get married and then divorced. Break ups happen. DPC will punish players who fall off the Bianca cliff.

 

[QuixoteTheDon]

Really? I did far less (except fucking everything at hand) and wasn't able to pursue Jill in my original first play where I didn't look too much at the guide? The only thing I remember doing wrong was not defending Chad in front of her (the guide says to do it if you want to pursue Jill) and I really don't get why that would have an effect, storywise it doesn't make sense it would be that important

All you need to do is go the picnic with her instead of taking care of Sage. Fight for her when the choice occurs, and lastly be a neutral or chick when doing it. And you'll lock Jill if you choose her at the episode 8 ending.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

I disagree. Jill route does NOT equate an automatic beta CHICK MC. I keep wondering why most of the players keep thinking that way. You can play perma Neutral MC with a DIK affinity. Hell, my main Jill save is that MC. He took a pic on Tybalts phone. Got a giggle from Sage and Josy because they KNOW the weapon he's packing he punched Tybalt, knocked his teeth out. Fucked everything that moves before he had to lock Jill with the fight for her choice. He is a bad boy that got hooked on some sweet virgin ass. Of course it makes sense that he would be tempted by Bianca... and if he was a lesser man he would succumb to that temptation

but storywise it would be nonsensical if the temptation was not implemented by the DPC. And he is probably gonna punish those weak of mind whose hand wanders around that nice behind.

I may be getting off topic, but I noticed your signature and realized that your favorite characters are Jill and Quinn. And then this happened in my head:

How? They are completely opposite. Just curiosity.

Heh, I didn't even know Josy can appear differently in this scene. I always ruin Tybalt's presentation, even in CHICK runs

To me they are the ying and yang of Badik. Different sides of the same coin. Jill is a good, kind, lawful good character who was afraid to let her emotional/sexual guard down. Quinn is an abused, fucked up persona brought up in a chaotic evil enviroment, that has build her emotional wall even higher than Jill. Sex is a meaningless pleasure to her if you are not THE RIGHT one. In the end, she is just as vulnerable as Jill. We see it time and time again.

That is why I rate BADIK no 1 game on this site. Both as a novel and a game. There are many many talented artists out there, and writers and coders etc. But DPC is MVP for me. He has A LOT of faults. But he is the most balanced one.

The announcement that you and Jill are together is made after touching Bia's ass, not before. Makes you wonder if she'd have had the same reaction, probably not.

My jokes aside, I do agree with you regarding Jill and Quinn being the opposites of a similar coin.


As for DPC being #1, for me personally OceanLab is, I prefer his work, style and vibe more.
But I'd say DPC and Ocean are top 2 for sure. DPC is grander by all means atm, but it's just a personal preference in my case.

Meh, I've had runs in the 117###.

Quinn is one of the most well-written characters, the contrast between what a bad girl she is, sexually promiscuous, and yet her emotional closeness, her shyness is even greater than Jill's.
