VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[KaiserST]

Because I'm not on his Patreon, is there anyone in the comments or Discord who is calling out DPC and slamming him for how long this is all taking and his refusal to release Chapter 11 in chunks?

I do join the Patreon for one month whenever he actually puts out a new chapter, but that's only twice a year, at best, and he seemed kind of annoyed when I criticized how lame the party planning mini-game was and it shouldn't have been in the game at all.

While the wait times have been getting absurd, releasing the episode in parts would be a terrible decision.

BAK episodes are a complete package, do it in any other way and the quality will suffer.

 

[Orgitas]

Releasing in chunks is just a BaD idea... Pun intended. DPC will just try to add more and more to each chunk making the wait even longer for the full episode.

Is it said in the game that B&R is 3 years? Generally speaking university is 4 years in the USA. Some do finish faster and others finish slower based on courseload/working outside of school though. Most people are 18-22 or 19-23 in university. So I assumed sage is 22 or 23.

I think the standard is four years. Freshman, sophomore, junior and senior.

There is a conversation with Maya in one of the earlier episodes where she says that she would be done with college in four years or three if she worked hard.

But college works differently in any case. The years are more like a guideline and the individual courses are what really define your education. You have to do basic ones before advanced ones on the same subject and a lot require you to complete gen ed courses that are more of a recap of what you should have learned in high school so the freshman year is much the same for all students, but beyond that which year you are is just a trivial detail.

I don't think so.

Three years, but it can also be four depending on the address, is the minimum duration for the first degree, the so-called bachelor's degree.

Sage, for example, makes it clear that she considers it wrong to stop at the bachelor's degree and is the only one to talk about thesis discussion and graduation, while Tommy, Rusty and Jill, who are in their third year, never mention it

and even in the flash back when Tommy and Rusty are freshmen Sage is already an important reference of the HOTs.

so the age difference with Sage is wider

not said the game, i have been read it here and characters were listed who is first, second and third year.
i thought it is weird, how can be a collage 3 year, if there are different educations what are for different number of semesters, but than i thought it is just an avn game. and i didnt saw every path.

now you mention, probably first year students cant be presidents. so if Sage was president 2 years ago, than she should have started before

That guys ego can't take any kind of dissent. You'd immediately be banned for saying anything other than how awesome he is.

episodes in chunks would suck ass. Some episodes might be chunky but when you skip through dialogue on subsequent playthroughs, you can get through most of them in half an hour or less if you know what you're doing, and the replay-ability is the biggest key factor in making them fun. That's also why they take so long. multiple love interests that you chose 3 episodes ago, relationship flags that were set back god knows how long that might be relevant.

Like could anyone seriously think that being rude to Patrick in episode 7 even slightly would bite them in the ass in Episode 10? Or that insulting cafeteria food and fighting Troy in episode 1 would wind up going against a counter to impress Bella in the same scene?

That shit takes time to make it work and not break, well, *everything*. Not saying it makes sense for there to be 1-2 years between every update, but that's part of why shit takes time, especially if you have a small crew working on it.

I've played games where the developers split a full episode into 2 or more parts because of the long wait due to episodes size. They did this to give patrons at least some content. And this is a bad decision, because the integrity of the narrative is broken, you don't understand what the episode is about, you get half an hour of content every two or three months. This is worse than a long wait. A long wait is bad and DPC has some quirks in terms of his creativity, but what is, is. It will be ready when it is ready.

 

[Mr.Cailiflower]

yes, 21 is circa 20
in my country " ~ " this mean: circa. sorry if i misunderstand something


yes, they were friends before diks, so probably they keep the friendship. however i think Nick dont tell everything to vinny. they speak about interesting things, like Cathy post from dik laptop. and they dont speak things like, what is the password to the dik safe. i think dpc would love creating a situation, where Nick looks like a traiter, but Nick did not give any relative info to vinny, so kind of innocent, but Tommy will call him traiter and want him drop out.

well, we dont know much ages and bdays. but we know the collage is 3 year long. we know mc is in first year. we know Sage is in her last year. 2 year difference.
ofc only if Sage didnt failed a semeste

I know you didn't ask me, BUT... You know what's the weirdest thing? That this can happen in real life, and it's surprising that DPC didn't think about it... I'm not saying it should be done, but it's definitely a possibility...

Jill would never give you the V card

Have you heard the good news? There shall be a harem route for the worthy. True believers will be rewarded if they but follow the path laid for them by the creator. Shall I tell you more?

Harem route in a DPC game

I think the standard is four years. Freshman, sophomore, junior and senior.

There is a conversation with Maya in one of the earlier episodes where she says that she would be done with college in four years or three if she worked hard.

But college works differently in any case. The years are more like a guideline and the individual courses are what really define your education. You have to do basic ones before advanced ones on the same subject and a lot require you to complete gen ed courses that are more of a recap of what you should have learned in high school so the freshman year is much the same for all students, but beyond that which year you are is just a trivial detail.

Also, it works differently every faculty and even IN faculty it can varies. Also there are faculties with odd sememsters, so 3,5 years can be also correct. And don't forget about Master degrees.

 

[felicemastronzo]

DPC will not change its way of working one iota, but to say that having half a chapter every six months, instead of one chapter a year, is much worse is nonsense.

especially in a game with as many runs as BADIK

if there's little content in half a chapter after 6 months, then there's also little content in a whole chapter after a year

 

[TREXrg]

I'm just a micro DIk subscriber but Let me try to explain. In Discord :

• Asking for a refund
• Asking for a preview
• Asking for a render
• Asking when is the update
• Posting a Fan art
• Mentioning NTR
• Mentioning Reddit
• Mentioning any kind of mods
• Mentioning F95zone or other pirate websites
• Mentioning Acting Lessons ending
• Implying you got a modded or a pirated version
• Saying anything bad about the time development
• Saying anything about poll results

Is worth a instant ban even with valuable patreon statut like Biggest Dik.

many make sense from his point of view although you can say it does not really let you have much room for discussion

about time

 

[Roger-a-Dale]

She's just looking out the window waiting for the crew to return from Maya's house, and probably worrying about the outcome. Josy is looking out the window towards the front of the house from the upstairs hallway with the fishing bowl behind her.

This sounds very plausible. However it can't happen on Bella's path because the girls are too busy watching the porn channel.

 

[godkingxerxes]

While it is possible this is a render before MC, Maya, Derek and Sage get back I think it afterward and Josy is upset with Maya for all the shit she put her through. If the breakup going to happen this is the ep and I'm ready for it

That's the dream, but pretty sure Pinkcakes is gonna hit us with the nightmare scenario. Maya and Josy will become closer than ever, it's a new age in lesbianism.

your logic has no power here.

too simple and too tied to what happens in the story

Plausible but that mean the start of ep11 takes place before the end of ep10 that would be a first unless DPC has that be the opening flashback and just goes right into it. Sure it could happen that way but right now I really think the preview is after they get back maybe i'm wrong on that but this I do know something going on in that beautiful head

I think the nightmare is for throuple fans that think they getting both girls, the solo believers will be happy

You've got that Optimism Prime vibe going on. I like it. But always remember dude makes this game for the chickidoos first and they love a good lesbian story, especially one with three chicks.

The only way for the "logic" to work is to start with the end of ep10 from Josy POV which while that could happen I don't get there would be a need to, right now to me it makes more sense for this to be after the fact

True i'm a optimism but DPC loves to make you pick I don't think there anyway he making this a lesbian story they meant to fall
