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

[hakuna-matata]

I like how he is trying to reel himself back for 3 episodes, yet they still keep increasing in size

DPC:
MUHAHA I'll tell those suckers I plan to shorten the episodes in the status updates and questionnaire, but what I am really going to do is add 300 more animations. I will also add 100 more animations for every complaint I read.

Also, now that of think of it, I should create a Madame Interlude after I am done creating this episode. The fans are going to love it. They need to know how a regular woman becomes a HOF stripper and hooker.

 

[Cabin Fever]

First progress report of ep 10

Last progress report of ep 10

Oh, the duality of men! At least we can stop pretend DPC is good in planning and accept that whole "i have all the story map out" is straight up bullshit.
EDIT: Also, perceive how he not even mention/remember his initial "plan" of make ep 10 smaller. Probably because it'll be the same of admit he failed in something and God forbid the great DPC admit he failed in something

Seriously, anybody who believed even just for a split-second that DPC would be able to make Ep10 smaller than Ep9, or that Ep10 would come out much faster than Ep9, are idiots beyond redemption.

Having said that, having a story mapped out is very different from having the story actually written out. Anybody who mistakes one for the other is not the sharpest knife neither.

I don't think people here realise how game development or any other development in creative media works if you strive for something of high quality.

Miscalculating the initial plan for an episode does not mean he can't have his story mapped out. If you look at EP from 1 to 9, you can see how some of the pieces fall into place and create fully developed arcs. He is either amazing at working on the fly or he has a story mapped out (without details).

That's how creative work is done. I once planned my next video edit as a 30s montage that would push my abilities to the test. It did, but during creating it, I had so many ideas that it turned into something better but also bigger. And it ended up being 1 min and 10 seconds long. It also took me a few months more than I planned (and I'm sure I'm worse at it than DPC).

I want to underline that I understand the frustration if you, or anyone here, is paying DPC and supporting him monthly. I just wanted to point out that in the world of art, especially video game development, it is never that simple. It's just hard to explain it to gamers because they sometimes, rightly or wrongly, feel entitled. It just kinda looks like a really toxic relationship, not even speaking of the legit DPC flaws.

I don't think going to "i'll make the episode smaller" to "the biggest episode to date again" is a simply miscalculation. Seems more like be careless and unorganized. But i'm not a creative person and don't have any insight about creative work so at the end of day it's simply my views coming from my place just as a player.

Seriously, anybody who believed even just for a split-second that DPC would be able to make Ep10 smaller than Ep9, or that Ep10 would come out much faster than Ep9, are idiots beyond redemption.

What i like more about this type of comments that try pass the responsability from devs to players is that subliminally imply devs are not trustworthy and people should not believe in what the devs themselfs write in their own progress reports.

Now let me easy the mood with a good joke

But with the Halloween episode done, I can limit myself a bit with this next episode.

DPC has a outline just without details. I get idea's come to you while working that's how its done but there should at least be script even if it just a rough one it helps keep things clean

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

If he was doing animations in Blender we would have noticed it right away. The rendering engines and lighting principles in Blender and DAZ are different (for example, look at the Mist game made entirely in Blender). Also, in Blender you can really get water/liquid physics, cloth/hair simulation, etc, which is impossible in DAZ. I don't know how porting from DAZ to Blender works now, but the last time I used custom bridge, it still didn't work perfectly, there were performance sags. Blender is not a very powerful program, it works well up to 2-3 million polygons, then it starts to lag. That's why I prefer Maya, which is the standard for producing cartoons and video game animations. But the bridge in Maya works very poorly, you could say it doesn't exist.
I don't see a problem in DAZ, unless you do complex animations there.
Ocean has long promised to move to Blender, but still hasn't. We'll see it right away anyway. The difference will be too noticeable. In any case, to work in Blender you need to know at least the principles of modeling/working with particles/working with geometric nodes. Geometric nodes are a very big topic to study.

Maya is difficult to learn and the annual license costs as much as a top PC, well, this is typical for Autodesk products. Plus, if there are difficulties with the transfer, this program is not the best for creating AVN games and fan art, it's more for professional studios.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure, of his patreon actually would have suffered some loss he would be faster. He went all butthurt, during episode 9, even created a special post about the long development time when he went very arrogant and said, " even if I lose my patreons I would finish this game " blah blah, I would have loved to test that,

He need to fall out around 6-7000 patreon, then you would see he suddenly not need 9-11 month for an episode
but since that's not gonna happen in the foreseeable future, ...

it's just an another Friday

Expecting passionate sex from Quinn while she is in the room with someone else aside from MC shows you don't get her character.
Expecting it to be as passionate as romantic threesome of Maya&Josy&MC in EP9 is showing you don't get it at all.

its not about romance , its about lust. For Sage it was a bucket list point that she was reluctantly talked into doing and for Quinn it was a game to prove how cool she is, if it was about how attracted they are to each other, Quinn, Sage and DIK MC should be fire together, instead it was a dud, either because of the stupid costumes, or the cringe banter resulting from the circumstances I just pointed, it had no right not being the best threesome in the game.

Nothing bad with joking in positive spirit but after every updates there's always some hatred here.

Like people read those updates and see DPC like this:



I still don't get why there's so much hatred towards the guy from that particular perspective.

I get what he's done or said in the past and why people like his product more than him. But hatred because people are impatient, like how many people here DPC owes anything? And even if you do, you can always vote with your wallet, the thing tha allows him to make such huge episodes and alos development times.

I don't think going to "i'll make the episode smaller" to "the biggest episode to date again" is a simply miscalculation. Seems more like be careless and unorganized. But i'm not a creative person and don't have any insight about creative work so at the end of day it's simply my views coming from my place just as a player.

I didn't defend his ability for planning, because you people proved its lacking. I think he shouldn't make such promises without being sure of them. But:

• As I said it's how creative work is done. You don't have to be any creative person, you can just jerk off to video games, but you nobody has to be ignorant. Even reading up about it will show that the biggest game dev studios can't help themselves either.
• I think it's not that bad of a thing. He broke his promise but it wasn't about quality or any particular feature, was just about the size of the episode which also meant the time of development. But that was kinda assumed on our part. Most emotions of people around are because of simple impatience. Which I get it, but I believe that if you want something done right, let it cook.

Hi everyone, would anyone be able to help me with the 3 keys to escape haunted house? I've found one in the fridge. Have clicked the green bottle several times, nogo. Haven't been able to find the one in cage, clicked on the cage several times as well, nogo. Have been hopelessly stuck in the haunted house for 2 days now.

Edit - Figured it out! We need to click on the notice, then the things move.

Did you check the official walkthrough, maybe it got some information there, I would help but I not yet gotten to that point, started a new playthrough and still in the early seasons.

did you read the notice at the back of the door after entering the haunted house

Yes

Yes, already went through it. People who followed it and found all the keys must be geniuses.

Thanks for the incredible work, as always. Only now, looking at the speed of the animations and what is left, I'm not sure about October, it seems to me more like November. Although we can't be sure of anything. Learning DPC is like learning quantum mechanics.

Since I don't know shit about hardware performance and whatnot, any guess about the lame animation ratio with such powerful GPU?

 

[The Japanese]

I don't mind the long update times. Get a heck of a lot of content with them. At least he is committed to the project and doesn't half ass (whilst still taking a year+) it nor just ignore it like two certain devs.

That's a valid point. There are certain games where I've begun skipping updates due to their lackluster nature—updates that often comprise disconnected scenes lacking a coherent storyline or any relevant plot point—, and when we compare the yearly content output of most developers to the substantial content updates within a BaDIK release, the difference is minimal, if not in favor of BaDIK. Each BaDIK episode unfolds as a cinematic experience or a lengthy installment of a high-quality TV show. While the wait for these episodes can indeed be frustrating, BaDIK's content volume doesn't appear to be overshadowed by that of other developers; in fact, DPC seems to deliver more yearly content than his counterparts.

Stupid idea as always but hear me out.

What if DPC was in pain the last 9 months? What if he is hurt because he released such an iconic Halloween special, something that will forever be as his Halloween tribute, on a chilly December morning?

And now my guy is just stalling because he's faster is gonna let you choose between burning Maya or Josy to death than allow to play Thanksgiving chilly episode during Halloween hype of October. Nah nah!
