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

[Anthony11553]

Lmao Riverdale is way worse, maybe DPC graduated from their academy cause the writing do be like that. On the bright side this is a VN and images are all we get so there's no tiktok level acting.

Goddamn that show was trash

the drug shit is getting a bit too outlandish tbh, hope it doesn't get more wacky

Guys I need some help.I recommended this game to my friends.The common complaint by all of them is they are stuck at some stage of the game where you need to click on certain doors or navigate to certain place.Is there any way to avoid such free roam activities and game be a Visual novel where u just go forward by clicking.some of them stopped playing because of the FREE ROAM

no, can't avoid it (Sancho's mod helps a bit with freeroam tasks and minigames etc. but wouldn't count on him for future releases, he's been MIA for a time now)

Thats sad to hear.A large chunk of audience are really missing this MASTERPIECE of a VN because they stopped playing at the early stages because of the free roams
HOPE DR.Pinkcake gives an option similar to "SKIP all Mini games",Personally I introduced AVNs to 30 of my friends and many of them loved Chasing sunsets,COBD,AWAM etc where theres a little to none free roam activity but sadly they are missing the bestest of all especially BAD and ETERNUM because of Free roam.I really want them to enjoy these 2 masterpieces so I request the developers to kindly notice this issue.It will reach to an unprecedented level of audience once it becomes VN only mode Trust me

Yes the minigames can be avoided, at the start of the VN you're asked if you wish to have them on or off. what can't be avoided are the free roams. And honestly, they're not that complicated, they really don't require much brain power to get through. For additional help you can head to the first page of this thread and use a walkthrough to guide you better. Also the freeroams are a necessary evil (for those who don't like them), because many of the bonus renders are hidden within them.

dont you know that anything that require more than holding CTRL , then complaining that episode is over after 3 minute, is complicated ?

Don't get me started, my reply there was the polite one.
Because, if this was 6 months ago, my first impulse would have been, to send them back to chasing Pokemons...

Honestly I would wish for a separate option to deactivate the stupid school minigames. I can abide with most of the others, but the new math game is just cancer². And having to play it again and again for all the different paths...yikes...

The new math game is based on logical reasoning. Not even anything to do with actual math. More like following instruction for cooking rice. Again, not that difficult.

Yeah, that is something he should have left alone as it is. No disagreement there.

The previous version was basically parts from an IQ test as well, but at least those were mostly easy and after having done them like once you knew how to solve them. The new one just takes too fucking long and he also build in different versions that you draw at random, so you can't even learn the solutions. It is just deliberately designed to piss people off.

I can't imagine someone playing an AVN while continuing to press CTRL, mama what a degradation

but it's not fun either. and frankly, most people complete these mini games for the sake of completion and the rewards " the special renders " thats are the main goal. otherwise they likely won't affect anything since you can turn them off anyway.

so let's say, you play like I do. New episode, I don't pay too much attention about them in my first playthrough, and only later when the Walkthrough comes out, I fine tune my path, collect the things I left behind etc
, now you know the story of the episode, you can skip the dialogues and just to do a quick preparation for the next episode with everything included, with the help of the walkthrough. The new Math, and chemistry does not have the answers in the Walktrough becasue they are randomized , unlike English for examp
It's lame ,

I never claimed it was fun. Sure I can see why it can be annoying and lame. But it's far from difficult. Just take your time, always begin with the easiest requirements, and work your way to the final one. Process of elimination, works everytime.

In all of my playthroughs, I think my 2 or 3 first times, I didn't pay much attention to the requirements and so, I failed a few of the questions. Then I stepped back reloaded a save point, and just began with the simpler requirements and went from there. Next thing I knew, I double facepalmed myself in embarrassment, felt stupid and didn't accept it. And since then, I breeze through them, and I haven't failed a single time since. And lord knows I should really step away from BaDIK, I think I got infected with some form of Dalli_x virus, and can't stop looking for clues to try and figure something out that no one else has.

I'm not going to sit here and belittle anyone for not wanting to do them. I get it, most of us would rather remain within the actual progression of the story instead of being halted by some idiotic quiz. But I can't stress it enough that it's honestly not that difficult. It's mostly just a waste of time.

Currently I'm playing through a dif VN, and I am quite immersed into it. But when I'm done, I'll reload a save point and make a small video walkthrough of how I go about them if anyone is interested in that.

What you're not getting is, I'm the one that told Bella to tell Spock....


MUAHAHAHA and the plot thickens

Nuh uh, that would imply you're talking to Bella. Can't have that

Na Dude, I'm not laughing. This is the 6th or 7th time you've called me a Madame Rose Simp (for some unknown reason). Every time I've said WTF, but you're missing the point. Tease me about Lily, Mona, Jill, Sage, Yoga Girl or others as much as you like. But give the Madame Rose shit a rest.

Hey brother, looking pretty fly now And don't let him bust your balls about Madame Rose. We all know the truth

You just know she's ready to have some fun. I'll be right there beside her offering my support.

Thank you for showing me this picture buddy.

Joshy, you look different today...

New haircut?

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

Well, then I have some bad news for you.
But that's what you get for being off planet all the time.

She got tired of your constant moaning about Kirk and Bones' explosive emotions. And wouldn't stop about you going on and on about it still not being "pon far" season. So she moved on to someone better. Poor girl needs action, and I'm givin' it to her, NON-FUCKING-STOP!

Enjoy your stop on Risa with Kirk stealing all the attention.
Live long and regretful my green blooded friend.

I don't think Bella—or any woman except maybe Arieth, Granny Lydia and the feminists—want to be around you


Nice Trek references though lmao. I still want a sci-fi special render set with Bella. Girl makes for a natural Vulcan

 

[redbone89]

Bella's looking sexy

bro i love you for the sake of Dr.Pink cake... so i have to be honest... this aint it... ;(

Hi there.

I don't usually write on forums because of past experiences, following the motto “If what one has to say is not better than silence, then one should keep silent” but, after following the thread the last couple of weeks (it's increible how a thread of a game without updates for almost a year is so active and funny), I have decided to make an exception to my rule and actively participate in it.

About the game... Well, I have quite a lot of things to say, but I will do it little by little. I don't want to make a message of a thousand lines (which I hate), so here's an introduction (Warning: English is not my first language)

Two years ago, I started playing this game when it was on episode 8. Honestly, I didn't pay much attention to the details of the story and I finished the available game with the 5 main branches unlocked, but I ended up getting very tired of the game because of the free roam. Seeing that the updates were very slow, I put the game aside and forgot about it.

About four weeks ago, I was browsing through the forum, I saw this thread and I said... I don't have any games to catch up with, so I'm going to give it another chance, so I deleted the saves I had and I decided to start from scratch, playing a total of four games: one answering without thinking about the consequences that ended up with a DIK/neutral character with Sage, a DIK game and a CHICK game to unlock all the routes, and a fourth and last one trying to answer as the character would do (after three games, I think I know (and understand) Tremolo), ending with a CHICK/neutral character with Josy/Maya, Jill and Sage as available options.

After all of this, my opinion of the game is that although it has parts that can be improved, the story and most of the characters are well above the level of f95zone games and it was really a great idea to give it a second chance.

Coming soon, my favorite character(s)

this thread is almost better then the game... i love the small community and all the laughter/memes.. something the other game threads barley have

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

I don't think Bella—or any woman except maybe Arieth, Granny Lydia and the feminists—want to be around you

And as you noticed, all of them are getting kicked away. Even your memes show that.

Funny, I see her more as an Orian, except she's not the slave... If you get my drift.

Is your friend a retard or what?

 

[somefancy]

It's been a while since I played, but didn't he already do Thanksgiving, at Maya and Derek's home?

Thanks Wolfryder and KaiserST for the info. I haven't played Episode 11 in a while and thought that the dinner at Derek and Maya's place was just a normal dinner so to speak but this makes a lot of sense.
I'm super stoked it's going to be a Christmas episode though! Here's hoping we get the release right around Christmas time.
