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

[Alphaeboy]

What, everybody doesn't constantly replay this game until the next update is out?

I do did mostly in for 2 months, and hell I even posted small and big things I noticed lol.

Like how there is clearly going to be a Love Triangle between MC with Bella and Jill if you told Bella in ep.8 that he liked them both but choose Bella. Now choice causes Jill to kiss you during the breakup scene; and it was sad as hell when you kiss her back. Pretty Much doing that leads to her keeping MC's photo which tells me she isn't going to move on and clearly will try to win him over.

Then interesting on Based on your choices with Maya and Josy they will be somewhat competitive with MC based on how many times he spend one on one time with them or equally.

Which pretty tells their is going to be a choice where MC have to choose between one of them or choose to keep both of them based on those choices lol.

Hmm, I don't think he'll be taking the whole two weeks just for the wedding, maybe one week but the other is probably just to himself(also his wife and any possible kids he might have, though he's never mentioned any). Considering the extra time, July is out of the question now. Maybe he can deliver in August, but I wouldn't bet on it. I'd say there are just under 10 weeks of remaining active development then it's on to testing for approximately 2, maybe 3, weeks. Bearing in mind, every episode since episode 5, even the interlude and episode 3, has been released on a Friday, we are looking at a release 13 weeks away.

Seeing as there have been 25 weeks of development so far, that puts episode 10 possible development time at 38 weeks, three weeks less than episode 9. While not a drastic improvement, DPC has stated that he no longer needs to build minigames from scratch meaning episodes 11 and 12 will likely take less time; somewhere in the 30 to 35-week range. Unfortunately, for the folks who love to complain about the development time, we will probably not be seeing development time go back under 30 weeks.

Calling it right now, episode 10 will be released on September 8th. Mark it on your calendars, folks.


Those look like fan art renders, in fact, I'm sure I've seen a few of them in the fan art thread.

Im with you on that one. If i had to guess i'd say either september 8th or 15th. I know most of us in f95 tend to expect the worst possible outcome but i don't see a scenario where Ep 10 gets released in october unless development gets haulted unexpectedly.

 

[dalli_x]

Wait, are these renders from the game? I don't recall having seen them.


I haven't been an active follower of the game and this thread in particular for very long. I played the game for the first time two to three years ago and got disconnected from it soon after that. Then I played it again in January this year, I think. That was when I started to be more of an active follower of the game. This time, I don't see myself leaving anytime soon. I am really hooked on it and I check this thread and participate in it on a daily basis now.

No, they are not screenshots from the game, but old special renders from DPC.

Wouldn't the Diks or HoTs have a grill already or just buy one it seems like a long way to go for a grill. But if it did happen I want Mc take Josy with him.
MC: Hi Steve I'm sure remember Josy my girlfriend
Steve passed out
Mc: Josy lets get the grill before he wakes up
Josy: We should have our own grill out first

Funny.
But seriously. For a decent barbecue party you need more than just the grill. Baked goods, meat, various sauces, drinks, charcoal or propane gas, etc.

The salad could be from Jamie's garden. Jamie mentioned to the MC that he also grows vegetables.

NGL, as an American, the idea of a Thanksgiving barbeque/camping party is such a weird concept. Thanksgiving is when we cram into a car or plane and travel for 4 or more hours to be with family. We then stuff ourselves silly with turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, etc, and in a food induced comatose state, watch football. Barbeque/camping party for the 4th of July, I could see.

That's exactly why I was surprised by a Thanksgiving party. I'm not American, but what I knew of Thanksgiving mirrors exactly what you write. What surprises me is that this is common knowledge and DPC still makes a party out of it. That's really strange.

Maybe the Thanksgiving party is a cover to screw with the Alphas. The DIKs and the HOTs are manipulating the Alphas' calendars into thinking it's Thanksgiving by date. This could work because the Alphas are not brightest. The jocks go to their families and the smart people go to pseudo Thanksgiving party.

Tbh, I did a camping trip with family one year for Thanksgiving and I know others that do almost every year as well, so I don't think it's too outlandish depending on the upbringing or just wanting to do something different than the usual Thanksgiving traditions a family may have. That's pretty much why my family did it. Considering this is a party involving the students, I can imagine them wanting to do something that is a bit different than their usual parties at the different houses or dorms and such.

I mean with over 300 million people, yeah there are going to be outliers. This game, however, typically utilizes cliches/tropes from American college movies, so I would assume that would be reflected with a typical Thanksgiving.

I suppose. Of all the holidays, I feel Thanksgiving is the one I most associate with families usually camping or at least renting cabins(outside of maybe July 4th, but usually everyone I know goes hunting and not really camping) and it makes sense for the story to want to spice things up otherwise if just keeping to basics it may feel samey to other events outside of just a lot more cooking. Plus camping trips are still a big trope in American films involving high school or college kids.

So, what are the chances that the update with the thanksgiving party will be out before thanksgiving?

100%. Optimistic guess for now is late august, realistic september, very pesimistic october

He started work in mid December last year, and figures he's somewhere between 60% and 70% through, so that means he should be done somewhere between late August and Early October. Things can change, like he may suddenly decide he wants to animate the entire episode, but if he's done by the 1st of November, that actually works out perfect since last episode ended the morning after Halloween.

Hello, I actually have an issue at the start of the episode 9 when Tommy and Jacob are speaking my game crash all the time.
Someone have the solution ? I try to load different save but the game always crash.

Do what they told all the 1312 others with that "problem".

Again with the party for Thanksgiving... What if they are having the party not on Thanksgiving day exactly? Is it too far-fetched to consider? That would allow the ones with families to have the more traditional time with their relatives.

In College it has 2 meanings.

It's either a party for those students who stay on campus during the holidays, it's usually bring your own everything and called "Friendsgiving".

Or the party is a day or two before everyone travels home, those are usually planed and more what you would expect from a College party.

But it's nothing unusual or special for either one of those to take place, some students even postpone going home to catch the party.

Here is my very detailed list of what I think about all the love interests

Jill - Sucks, Is not Maya & Josy

Sage - Is ok, But Isn't Maya & Josy

Quinn - Is good, But Isn't Maya & Josy

Bella - Not very good, Is not Maya & Josy

Other chicks - Boring, Not Maya & Josy

Maya & Josy - Perfect angels that the mc should marry as soon as possible.
Every episode should be dedicated to them.


P.S. You will never guess who my favourite girls are.

This one?

 

[znar25]

sampow, I was just about to reply to your post. So I'll do it this way.

The lightning itself is a clue.
EP1: Josy flashes herself.
EP4: Josy is actually behind the camera and is not flashed.
EP9: Josy is not used to being in front of the camera because the flash surprised her.

Now you just have to read what Josy says just before her flash in EP9.

Oops.
"It’s not illegal for friends to be in the same picture."

Friends is definitely a DPC clue that leads us to EP4 because that's when Josy and Maya took a picture before they had sex for the first time, and Josy was behind the camera. Why is this important?

Maya said in EP4 flashback that Josy, who wanted to move in with her father, has friends here too. I figure so she had more than friends. So who is the one who knows about cameras and also sets up the camera in EP9? Elena.
