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

[felicemastronzo]

I think he has to be this subtle because in Acting Lesson he had 2(?) scenes with the Big Bad, spying from outside.

that is the classic example of a misleading clue.

they show us someone spying on the protagonist, then we see Melissa's stepfather breaking in so we establish that it was him, at the end we find out who it really was, but does it really matter at that point? by then her role was clear, at the function it was just to fool us and make us think that the danger had passed

DPC likes to litter it with constant clues most of which are useless, some deliberately misleading (the father looking for his daughter at the Preps' party, the women's underwear in Chad's bag..) and some useful.

I honestly don't see how the fact that someone passed through the DIKs' backyard could ever become an important fact, and therefore a Checov's gun

Maybe it will make sense in the future but for now I struggle to come up with any past or on-going story arc that can relate to someone sneaking in DIKs garden at that exact night.

For women's underwear in Chad's bag I just assumed that in gay relationship of Chad and Troy, the Troy is the bottom and that are his panties lmao

Yeah, but my point is that even the first one where we don;t see who it was, it was still too on the nose, we 100% got confirmation that someone was looking. In DIK he went more subtle, could be wind, could be Riona a cat, could be Nick the snitch spying for Vinny.

but in my opinion that is exactly the problem

it is such a generic clue, so it could be practically anyone, to do anything, that it becomes a 'non-clue'

anyone could walk through that garden, and no one had a particular reason for walking through it at that time, so unless it is explicitly revealed (and considering the sheer number of unanswered mysteries I doubt it enough) anyone can put any character they like in it, from jealous Jade to Derek with diarrhoea

Sounds a lot like the blue-eyed girl from the party to me... basically who cares?

I don't know why but this render always seemed funny to me

DIKs and HOTs? They're cool, but the feed in the thread is updated so quickly that it's impossible to keep track of all the posts.
By the way, they posted more, it looks like Tybalt's day or something like that:




UPD. To those who offended: This is a joke, not MC's dick. Take it easy.

I never knew that the dialogue changes if your character is also named Patrick !
Fuck off Patrick ! Patrick is Maya's daddy now !


And that Spongebob reference

As far as I remember, initialy when you have lunch with her in the cafeteria and tell her your backstory, she decides if you are a good person and recomends you to Jill. Dont remember every choice, but wearing the dildo helmet detracts points, so does making fun of cafeteria girl's food, beating up Troy in ep1. Oferring to pay for her food, helping the kid in the math class with homework and not giving a smartass responss to Jade when she asks you why are you taking Gender Classes, makes both of them praising you and Bella likes that. If you pass that checkpoint you will eventualy get an option to visit her in the library, which is the point where you basically open her path. After that you should be able to move in with her when Josy shows up at @ Maya's.
In ep 5 dont sleep with Cathy, as that closes her path.

You dont need any specific affinity, or status, just be carefull, especially early on DIK MC joke options are very crude and Bella doesn't lile that. By not going CHIck you miss out 2 extra possitions on sex scenes with her, one is 69 and I forgot the other one.

No dildo helmet or crude jokes? So Bella hates fun, got it. What happened to the OMG girl?!

Spoiler: Her own version of the dildo helmet

From the list of your don'ts I probably did every single one of them so that explains why I never got the opportunity. Good to know that I don't need to go CHICK (boo!) and the actions I need to avoid, thanks for the tips.

Later chapters she doesn't mind his jokes that much, mechanically at least you aren't losing points with her anymore, in fact they make for funny interactions, him with his sexual innuendo jokes and her with her dry humor, that flies over MC's head most of the times. But at the start it make sense for her character to not like them that much.

I was really happy to see Bella's dry and deadpan jokes (and them going over Tremolo's head) in the later chapters, I found them hilarious.

I also liked that she sometimes smirked at his more juvenile jokes, I thought of it as character progression (regardless of LI status) of Isabella slowly warming up to him: letting him call her 'Bella' after the Cathy car ride, making pancakes together, smirking at his jokes etc.

 

[NebulousShooter]

sampow, did you ever update your unanswered plots checklist?

 

[Lethal Flourish]

The most obvious and correct major choice in Being a Dik and on the planet Earth. No hesitation.

I'll behave but I will do what I must and I would gladly do it again if given the chance.

I'm genuinely curious if anyone ever picked the other option and if so, what is wrong with you?

Peace was never an option

Seeing Tybalt hug Maya like that makes me angry
As if he is good enough for her
Maya like sensitive new age men who are in touch with there femenine side
You know guys like me
Tybalt is just a sneaky snake

I think everybody here knows you have a deep connection to Maya, are you saying that you yourself are a "sensitive new age man that's in touch with your feminine side"? In the world of BAD technically that would make you a Chick bro.

Well the game has told me I'm a massive chick

did you give up on Quinn?

 

[Joshy92]

did you give up on Quinn?

Maya was always my favourite I only said all that romantic stuff about Quinn because it made people laugh
Plus she doesn't like massive chicks so we aren't compatible
But she is still my fourth favourite girl in the game

I am disappointed tho that there isn't going to be a path where a chick mc can get with Quinn
That would have been a fun dynamic imo

Oh, Joshy... Joshy...
You're being unfair to Tybalt.
Look at him, he's very sensitive and gentle.
Aren't you touched by his sensitive attitude to his watermelon?!
When you're mad at Tybalt, you act like some kind of insensitive DICK.
So you're just moving away from Maya.
Be closer to Maya.
Discover Tybalt in yourself. Let him into your heart.
And you will become a truly Great CHICK !

In Joshy's heart, a shifting tide,
Tybalt's touch, emotions ride,
Gentle soul with watermelon's grace,
Unveils desires, a fervent embrace.

Maya's hold begins to wane,
In Tybalt's arms, new passions reign,
Joshy finds a love so true,
Becoming more than he ever knew.

One of the better Isabella moments is when she actually uses MC's terrible "liBrian" joke from way back herself, in a recent chapter. There's definitely some nice, subtle progression going on there.
