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

[jxyf889]

I have to say, I don't really get the complaints about free roams here. Personally I like the concept, especially when it comes to party events, it makes them feel more "real" and interesting for me. I like to explore different areas and rooms and interact with characters. While some free roams were a bit confusing at the beginning, I got used to it later, also by Ep. 9 you should already know how to navigate the DIKs house. But even if you don't, the fast travel option makes it easier.

Same goes for things like minigames, collectibles, phone content etc, those are mostly optional activites if you want distractions to make your playthrough longer. To me it all improves the game, it would be less special and more monotone without it. But yeah, to each their own.

Not a bad report, the best info we got is the queue status, which by itself doesn't tell us much but can at least confirm the PCs arent idle.

Also, the fact that DPC said that 8 lewd scenes remain to be completed, which considering the last episodes had 16 or 18 lewds scenes total, means that DPC should be at least halfway done with them.

Of course not all scenes are equal in size, but considering he already at work at the 8 remaining, it probably means he is over 50% in the lewd contet for EP11.

The reduced preview amount does suck though, almost nothing to discuss & predict.

It's not too bad, as long as it's clear content is progressing well. Given the development only started proper in January and it's not even April, even August-September release doesn't feel that unreasonable.

Be careful about getting your hopes some where saying the same thing last year

I am somewhere in the middle when it comes to free roams.

On one hand, I like them, and the interactions they bring, it would feel a little jarring if all the free roam stuff was linear or something. It feels like stuff around you is happening and you are participating in it.

On the other hand... They have absolutely gotten bigger, but for me, that didn't necessarily increase the benefit I think they bring to the experience.

I'd personally like to see them toned down, but I'll survive if that doesn't happen.

It's not gonna happen man, they said the same thing last year and the episode came out in December.

If you mean the piano one, that's "Romantic Piano - AShamluevMusic"
If you mean the Rock song MC plays on his phone for Jill, that's "Power of Suggestion - Ferrari Tzar"

I used to love the freeroams but now that I have 18 saves I hate them

1 year updates are the norm now, even if DPC is ahead of schedule he will just add quality content madame scenes and useless mini games to extend the wait

Early-mid autumn release that it is.

I feel like July or August would be a good bet for this episode. High Hopes

I will believe in a September release only when I have the update downloaded in my PC lol.

Having played this game for a few years now, I have learned to always expect a delay.

Its just easier to handle the wait this way, specially considering that every update in the least 3-4 years took longer than the previous one.

If Episode 11 manages to be releases in December I would already call that a win since, if the trend continues, a 2024 with No BAK is very possible.

So, lose your hope now, it will hurt less if you do it early...

Oh yes how I love those Madame Rose scenes.

It will be a miracle for episode 11 to be released before December

I'm too old and bitter to keep hoping for a miracle from DPC.

All I'll say is my hope is based on DPC not suddenly adding dumbshit. So far they've seemingly managed to avoid the temptation for a whole three months.
