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

[lobotomist]

Agreed completely. I actually liked him, but I recognize his failings. I think I would have liked him less if his wife hadn't been so unbelievably annoying. I'm not saying her views weren't valid, but she acted kinda like a screaming harpy, which is just going to make me want to shut you up in the fastest possible way. I have no interest in listening to somebody who shouts about everything.

Walt did (initially) what he needed to do to survive cancer. I'm cool with that. Then he had to dig out from under the other criminal problems. I'm still (mostly) OK with that. But man, he made some bad choices along the way that I don't support. He could have saved the chick from choking on her own vomit and chose not to. I can see both sides of the argument (she did rather keep Jesse in his addict phase), but I don't know if I'd just watch her die. Maybe call the police after making sure she doesn't choke to death.

Gotta say that quinn is my favorite waifu, but her sex scenes are SOMETIMES not that good. In contrast Josy seems like she is just a side character in maya's story and has no real story of her own, but her sex scenes are the best.

DPC has stated that Quinn will become a main LI along with the other main girls. But for a lot of the story she is a Side Girl labelled under "Others". I am guessing, because Quinn asked the MC to assist her in a meet, that the adventures, and outcome, of the small adventure will cause Quinn's walls to crumble and she will fall, properly, for the MC.

That doesn't explain the image thou. Also when did Dr.P said that? I seem to remember that the official position was that the main girls were set in stone.

They found a bigger rock that Quinn could fit on along with the other girls.

Watching the status reports and previews, I notice that this development cycle is very quiet, compared to Ep.9, which had a lot more hype. DPC has become very rare to give the number of finished renders / animations. 200 animations is a good number for 4 months and 11 days of development, but it's the number of posed animations. How many have been completed is unknown, so it's impossible to give a precise estimate of development time. But I think that it is not less than 8 months. The reports are very uninformative, he just tells what he is working on.
Previews are the same, they are pretty basic. Only one preview of Riona caused an explosion, we joked with Jill once again, and laughed with laughter from DPCs trolling when he posted Josy and Maya against the processed green screen from Ep.9. And thats all.

Plus this clone series, which caused total misunderstanding and laughter, because it was mostly dull. DPC could drop a bomb and make "special renders" like something like below under the spoiler, ottercon I know you'll love this. Some of the fans would be outraged, someone would unsubscribe, but it would be epic and really funny:

the previews of the ninth chapter were really insignificant

the first was a scene a few minutes away from the closing of the last chapter that added nothing
2 previews referred to the same scene with Sage
2 to the same scene with Maya and Josy
a series of generic previews about Lis and the party
and the only one that seemed important, the one with Jill in the clinic, revealed one of the chapter's most cringeworthy moments

those in the tenth are on this same level for now (with the cherry on top of the preview for Lynette)

I remember that there were much more discussions about previous previews. Based on the preview with Jill, there was even a theory that something happened to Neil or Tommy. All theories turned out to be blank shots in the air, but I admit that DPC managed to intrigue people. Maybe that's what created the perception problem with Episode 9: too much hype.

That was the only Preview really discussed, and it was basically a hoax.

DPC, himself, directly created the hype by continuing to exalt the new chapter, which it is not doing at the moment. It's rarely a move that pays off

Oh, I should have mentioned that too. Zoey special render was a blast. Thanks to a noble hero c.mork

 

[Ilhares]

MC will have beard?

Cbad had one, why not? And he could do much worse than Sage.

Three comments above you (status update) there is the picture that proves this. YES!

That proves absolutely nothing, she's been in that lineup for a long time.

DPC has stated that Quinn will become a main LI along with the other main girls. But for a lot of the story she is a Side Girl labelled under "Others".

Unless you can provide the actual claim from him, no, she isn't a main girl. I remember him being quite clear about who the five primary LI's were, and Quinn was never in the discussion. Never has been, and never will be.

Doesn't mean there can't be a possibility of ending the game with her, but there are a lot of potentials on the Others path, including Zoey, Riona, a certain stripper, etc.

True, Josy storyline is probably the most bland compared to other characters. Her relationship with Maya is pretty taxing considering Maya problems steal attention from her. Hopefully Josy solo route will change that. I really liked her in season 1 before her relationship with Maya came to light.

You're right, it wasn't long ago in the beginning of the year that he reiterated there are 5 main LIs



And he has even implied Quinn is actually an antagonist so... yeah, main LI status for her or any other girl is not happening.

 

[Ilhares]

You're not the only one who misses the cum-hungry little gal who wants to fuck like bunnies and had a lovely dirty sense of humor.

I am willing to take them both as a package deal, though. Once she(Maya) pulls her head out of her ass and secures some financial freedom from her dickhead father I think she has the potential to really blossom into an exceptional person. She might even stop having such terrible skin, it's got to be all the stress.

As long as Josy doesn't smile too much, I really like her. That's not to say there's anything wrong with her, this is purely my problem. Once those naso-labial lines deepen she looks creepily like my former stepmother, and that's kind of a boner killer. That's just not fair. Thankfully Zoey, Nicole, Riona, Camila, and so many others do not have such a crippling side effect.

If "she looks creepily like my former stepmother" wasn't a boner killer we might have to wonder about some things.....

For me Maya's problems don't take attention away from Josy. People forget Josy joined the hots leaving Maya's dorm, Josy joined a gym with MC, Josy finds ways to try to help Maya with her problems and I'll add Maya is joining the HoTs because of Josy and talking to Sage. Maya is my second favorbit girl but in the same time Josy did all that Maya did nothing. So my point is that Josy is the best and yes she has a story some of it is just jointed with Maya

Her sisters were quite attractive, but it was her personality that was the major turnoff. Josy has a great personality, but the scars of my youthful psyche are hard to overcome.

Totally understandable. My mom was a cunt so I guess that's why my biggest turnoff is fat smokers. Goddamn Freud.

Not really, Josy is very likeable an she is definitely my second favourite character, but she has the same problem as haley dunphy: DrPincake seems to struggle to find something interesting for Josy to do besides her relationships with other characters. Her character existence is completely co-dependent. When your character strongest traits are the relationships they have with other people, then you don't have a very strong character at all.

Look at the examples you gave all of them are not really about josy but about someone else and josy is just there for the ride.
Usually characters have goals and struggles that they need to acomplish and overcome troughout the story. Of all the examples you mentioned the closest to that is the gym one, and that is overcome because it is a porn game, so her goal of fitness is already achieved because porn characters have to be hot by default.

Not at all, Josy does have struggles and a goals to accomplish like her relationship with MC with or without Maya, Josy is a very strong character but if there is anything that holds Josy back is her willingness to put what she wants on the back- burner but that is part of her story and is likely something we will she Josy grow out of slowly has season 3 goes on.

He never said that. Actually what he said is that people give too much importance to the label LI or SG.

Dawe's face at the end of Ep.9 is indeed suspicious (As always, Quinn's plan was not perfect, though not her fault this time). It certainly doesn't pay Dawe to take the risk of attacking the DIKs because his fraternity is under surveillance and he has a much more serious problem with future fatherhood. So starting shit and risking dropping out of college would be stupid, but here's the thing. IT'S DAWE. Dawe and "think with your head" are incompatible things. So something really bad could happen.

Of course, it's Quinn's fault. Arieth wanted to do the Halloween because she doesn't have 6 more years of college. Why? She's pregnant. Why? Because Quinn switched Dawe's birth control pills with sugar pills.

Quinn's problem will become for the Jocks to find out so Quinn cheated them with the birth control pills. The Jocks, on the other hand, can't involve the authorities, because then it will be known that the Jocks are cheating. As we know from EP1, the Jocks can get angry. Not good for Quinn.

Dawe face is naturally suspicious because he suspects he is not the father because he got the photos, showing evidence of Arieth's infidelity. But Dawe will suspect a DIK. I rule out Anthony, Alex, and Caleb as possible fathers. My candidates for paternity are two nerds.

Either Bert and the pink jacket guy will be. When. EP4 Derek Branch. The MC kicks Ron through the door and the guy who wanted to fuck Arieth takes off, leaving a horny Arieth behind in a dorm full of nerds. If the MC isn't on Derek's Branch in EP4, the guy running away is the father.

The problem Dawe has now is so he can't trust Quinn anymore. In EP9 the MC said to Sage so he is tired of the fight between JOCKs and the DIKs. But who has been a member of the Gym since EP8? Josy and the MC.

Dawe knows through Anthony so the MC is not the one who took the photos and Chad will remind Dawe at the Gym. I can well imagine so there will be a fight between Caleb and the MC. But it will not be a streetfight, but an agreed fair fight in the Gym. Isabella's presence will make sure of that.

When the MC faces the fight, he gains the respect of the Jocks because he is not a Baby Dik, as Caleb called the Diks in EP5. This gets the ball rolling, whereby the DIKs and the JOCKs could make peace.

I figure so that by extension Quinn and Tommy will be stripped of their VP position. Dawe will also not be able to hold on as president of the JOCKS.
