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

[Acsuka]

The entire game is a flashback. In the game's intro, you can see the MC narrating his life as if he were reading a diary. About him and Bella... there must be a happy ending between the two since she is one of the main girls, but apparently it will be after a lot of blood, sweat and tears.

I suggest you lower your expectations however... progress with her is very slow and sometimes it feels like it's going nowhere. With each passing episode I become more discouraged with their relationship.

You're right, I skipped the introductory text... By the way, there is ep.10. I already play with it. I just didn't remember this scene...

Thank you for posting this, could have read it myself on patreon if i wouldnt have canceled my sub right away, didnt thaught of that if you hit the cancel button you are out imediatly even if the month isnt up yet... well... who cares.

So... a little late for the walkthrough, but figures with christmas and whatnot. usually its about 2 weeks out after the release.

For another playthrough ill wait for the walkthrough, some gallery scenes are still open so are some renders, but i have still more than 10 savegames open to go through until episode 11 is out... so yeah, no rush.

The fixed issues, i cant say that i witnessed anything from that list... so, pretty clean release, as always i would say. DPC is many things, but sloppy is not one of those.

January 5th will be the first dev report on episode 11. Hopefully with some speech about upcoming animations. If he is not doing an rwork of the minigames or is adding much to them, those animations are already out of the way. Which are plenty already... at least 10% were animations for the mingames, probably more. Cut them out and it is one month less for rendering... but i guess, he would use time frame for just new animations on other things nobody cares about.

To be absolutely clear, early october 2024 is my personal deadline. If he doesnt make it, well... hopefully F95 is still there cause iam not paying for a 12 months shedule. 9-10 months is ok, not more. And to make up for episode 9 and the 12 months wait on episode 10, it would be a good thing if he could manage a 8 months shedule... before he was able to put out episode 8 in under 8 months, and it was nearly as big as ep 10. Maybe just do a slightly more "render" recycling like he still used to do in ep 7 and 8 (now he barley uses a render twice, which is nice but not necessary all the time), and way less animations for unnecessary things and it wouldnt be that hard to get on track.

There are enough mingames already, no need for new ones. Well maybe 1 or 2 small ones, for a party or other acitivity. But please nothing major... the partyplanning is working, i dont really like it that much, but well, stick to it until the end of the season. The class-minigames are done and useable too until the end of the season. Same goes for fishing and brawler, well for brawler there just needs to be some progress of course, but that can easily be added without a days work.

But... he will go overboard agian with many things, everything else would be a huge surprise. So yeah, it will most likely be a 12 months shedule again. And this time i woudl bet, that the release will not be before christmas, so... january 2025 is my bet, hopefully a pesimistic one.

Contentwise, well, continue the approach of episode 10 of course. Keep things going, no episode 9 bullshit anymore please. Episode 10 was back to the strong ways like before.

I expect a somewhat "comeback" from some sidegirls (in the lewd department), like Rose, Sandy, Sarah, Mel and Camilla. I didnt discovered every gallery scene yet of episode 10, but if iam not wrong, those girls didnt get one in ep 10. Rose only had this one scene so far in the whole game in ep4, it wouldnt surprise me if there will be another, not that i need one. But DPC didnt do many "one-timer" so far. In fact, by now... Rose and Mona are the only "one-timers" if iam not mistaken.

Again i dont think there will be many, if any, conclusions to any major plotsituation. Its just to early for that... halfway through season 3 and a season 4 yet to come. But some Plots need some serious progress cause its just ridiculous at this point (Bella, Lynette) and i think the Maya and Josy solo routes need some kind of kick-off now too if they have to work out in a good way over season 4. DPC cant drag that out until the very last episode to work out. In fact, episode 10 was the perfect timing to get something going here, but again it was not much, but at least something more than before, especially with Josy. In ep 11 i expect at least a kiss on the solo-route and maybe some serious talk if you are in the throuple but not "even" with them, otherwise it gets kinda late for that dont you think?

Oh and i would like to see some branches maybe gone. Just to lighten up the load a little bit. And episode 10 already showed us... DPC is adding even more branches, the whole others path is torn apart in a lot of branches now too. Time to get rid of some branches which arent needed anymore. I can think of some, but dont want to start that discussion here and now.

So... that are my expectations, some expectations i had for ep 10 were met, which was really nice... maybe some will be met in ep 11 too. Overall ep 10 was a really good one, but 12 months shedule were not good at all, thats a no go. Yeah so... hopefully he can meet my "deadline" of october, but i admit, that would be a huge surprise, January 2025 is the more realsitic bet at this time i guess.

Well... see you again on January 5th for the first dev report.

Do you want DPC to undo some branches...? I salute you, brother. I said a few days ago that DPC had more important things to do than create a scene for low tier bitches and I almost got crucified like Jesus... and here you are... waiting for DPC to undo some branches... DAMN!

So I didn't mean Mork, he's one of the calmest people I know, actually.

Well, yeah... some girl-branches are not necessary at all, but with "branches" iam not just talking about getting lewd scenes... There are a freaking a lot branches in the game without girls involved. And many of those branches were not really needed... like the chessplayer dude that beat up the teacher if you encourage him to play chess. Its a small one, and kinda funny, but branches like that are really many in the game, you would be surprised how many. Every second choice in the game opens up another little branch, most of the time it just leads to some different dialogue lines along the way... but to add and follow through those branches... yeah that needs development time, and not just some hours.

And the chessplayer thing could have been made without adding a branch for it... well it would make it "canon" but yeah... why not? And that goes for many little branches... at least 20 or so.

Wow its been a while since i posted. But Jill is a wife. Wish i could meet a chick like her in real life. I fuck isabellas all day(headed back to colombia soon) so I date that type often. Nora is a Fucking GODDESS. OMG that woman remind me when i was younger and fucking older women. Jill and Maya are really sexy and i would date that type of chicas. Happy MC got two girlfriends. Would settle down with them. Miss Jade and Carmila. Would marry them as well.
Jill-wife
Isabella-wife
Jade-Wife
Camila-wife
Josy-wife
Maya-wife
Quinn-Bottom Bitch. Aint going no where for life.
Nicole-Mistress
Lily- Let it take its course
Sage- Not my type but she cute.
Madame- Seeing her often as I can and convincing her for a getaway.

 

[RK - Milf]

Geralt From Rivia could only be talking about a biased fan of Maya, Josy or Sage.

• Quinn's biased fans are strangely chill.

• Jill's biased fans, we kicked them out of here using bullying after Jill showed up at the Halloween party dressed as a banana.

• Isabella's biased fans... come on, she's not that popular and you guys know it.

• Josy's biased fans? Either it was ChipLecsap or it was that soprano31 guy who wrote some very romantic poems where he always ended with 'Te amo, Josy'

• Maya's biased fans? It had to be Joshy92, since he's the only one who thinks Patrick found a great enemy when he met the extremely dangerous CHICK MC.

• Sage's biased fans? Obviously it had to be you... you're the guy who created the Best Girl tournament and almost had a seizure when people started voting en masse for Quinn and not Sage.

Bella is not famous? She's the milf baby!

Someone define me "turn based combat"? Taking turns do to quick time events is bit of a stretch. The new brawler is insane even on normal, am I expected to go to a training camp before engaging with it.

All other minigames are tolerable, even the old brawler is casually doable on normal, shuffle you kind of have to figure out, English as non-native is rough, but at least boosts and cheating and studying helps, Math I can figure out though it feels like IQ test at some point. But the updated Brawler makes me look for some kind of disorder so I can have an excuse.

End of rant.

She doesn't have many fans compared to other girls and no hardcore fans either.

 

[JohnnySmithDoe]

Count me in then as a fan. That stiff, angry facial expression all the time though is bit much. Would say she is the "hard to get" archetype, if the payoff is good in the end, I am all about games having these kind of characters.

 

[RK - Milf]

that why she is special to me, Bella is for me

 

[DarkKiller]

She doesn't have many fans compared to other girls and no hardcore fans either.

If we go by patreon and discord polls she's far from being the least popular LI, it's just that her fans seem to be a little less vocal.

 

[Ray_D]

I officially can no longer stand MC's constant apologizing to anyone

Maya, although in the trouple, does not tell him anything about his mother, but when MC finds out the truth from Derek he apologizes for maybe pushing too hard, too bad helen could not surprise him at thanksgiving.

Jill accuses MC of stealing his underpants (as well as proving that she believed all the accusations Tybalt had made against him) then finds out the truth and sat to apologize to MC as well, but he takes all the blame, because it is his own behavior that led Jill to believe those accusations.

Zoey asks him to express what he had felt at the girl's farewell, he does so, she shares nothing (after all, since his return it is only Mc who tells, as if he had gone to San Diego), and he apologizes for making her sad.

Bella almost scolds him for not asking more about her husband, when the one time he tried she answered him with sphinx riddles "today is different" different what??? but at least here the apology was not necessary. after all he had already apologized for looking, even without looking, at the girls at yoga class

I miss Sage's run, but I'm sure he will apologize for something to her as well.

it's quite annoying, especially because when you're a massive DIk the character keeps apologizing, he's supposed to behave more rudely.

Is she popular among the main girls or among all the love interests? I'm sure she's the least popular among the MG. She rarely wins any polls...

 

[atrebor68]

I don't know what Dr. Pink was smoking when he made brawlers who do he think we are Spider-Man? How tf we supposed to react that fast not sure how many hours he wasted on such stupid mini game

Finally. Someone had to say it!!

 

[Renfield42069]

Is she popular among the main girls or among all the love interests? I'm sure she's the least popular among the MG. She rarely wins any polls...

If you looked at the numbers on those poll screenshots he linked, she's often in second place, so I'd consider that pretty high.

 

[Ray_D]

Look who's back! I wonder how it was for you to play Episode 10 with all this:
-Zoey-Jacob tease
-Riona flirting with other guys to tease MC
- Sage is like Derek's "beard".

And the main dish.

remember brothers if you look at John boy by mistake during the threesome with Elena say the following: no homo and everything will be fine..

 

[Ray_D]

Well, as always, I will be frank and answer absolutely impartially - the best option is Quinn.
Always Quinn.

how are you going to be impartial karamba if you can't even declare your taxes correctly.

 

[DarkKiller]

She rarely wins any polls...

She's won a bunch of them, you'd probably find them if you went back a few years on this thread.
There was a time around EP3 or 4 iirc that she was fighting with Jill for the favourite spot, atm Sage seems to have taken the upperhand, but if DPC made a popularity poll I believe she could be anywhere from 4th to 2nd place. I still think Maya would be dead last.

And if you go by unofficial channels, the avn_lovers subreddit had a big competition a few months back, Isabella was the last badik girl to be eliminated even against a huge crowd that voted for anything that was up against badik, simply because they seemed to dislike this game's popularity among AVN communities.

Knowing John Boy's fetish, he is the one who will watch. From a chair away from the sofa.

I always found the MC under appreciated, whether by the DIKs or by the MG whether it was on their route or not. I wish the MC would tell them all to go fuck themselves and let the DIKs and girls solve their problems without the MC's help. This thing about saying 'sorry' is proof of what I'm saying.
