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

[funkymonkeyjedi]

judging people by first impressions in a short period of time is wrong

Whether it's wrong or not, it's human nature. And everyone does it. Doesn't mean everyone acts out on it. But like it or not, "humans will human". Denying that is simply living in a mirage.

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

Not even close... Being optimistic, the game will be finished in 5-6 years

More like 5-6 years to get to act 3

 

[The Krogan Dude]

How many people in this thread has as Maya as favorite and Sage number four?

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

Joshy's probably the only one that would have a list like that lolz

Exactly, the person I was replying to was stating that they dislike Sage based on their first impression of her, but then focuses on a scene which isn't even her first scene, so it looks like he is just disliking her and trying to find a reason to justify the dislike.

Honestly, I just don't get the whole 'charade' of trying to understand why someone doesn't like your preferred character. We're all different. If I tell you I can't stand Sage, justifying why is irrelevant. And watching you trying to "straw-man" someone into justifying why he's wrong in your opinion, ends right at that point. It's your opinion. you like Sage! Good for you! I'm happy for you. And no amount of you making up excuses why you think she's better won't change mine or anyone else's opinion if they don't feel like looking at her through whatever lens you see her through.

So again, I don't get why this level of strawmaning is necessary. One could say "grow up! Because, who gives a shit?".

Don't try to have a mature debate with this guy. He and his pals have polluted this thread for months with their waifus war. Until the moderation started to take actions.

Well, this should work both ways than is it not ? You don't like a certain character, good for you, none give a shit why you not like it, why people spend so many time to hate on them, oh yeah for trolling.

[funkymonkeyjedi]

The difference here is that it's not trying to strawman someone for not liking a character. The conversation came from him criticising someone for liking Sage, not someone criticising him for not liking Sage. And then he proceeds to state that you shouldn't like Sage because of a bad first impression from the guitar scene, when that's not even where you'd get a first impression of Sage from.

Oh, and Chip, you're usually funny, but you'll have to do better to bait me with that lame "whataboutism".
You won't succeed in changing the narrative. My reply remains the same;
-So what?

 

[NebulousShooter]

'Right away'.
Synonymous with 'immediately'.
As in; before you do anything else.
Using it as leverage to obtain a promise and then giving it back is not 'immediately'.

Someone that doesn't understand that should probably be careful with words like




First option.
"You never get a second chance to make a first impression."
Note that all the points I originally listed were from early in the story.
In other words... she left a bad first impression.
Doesn't mean she is inherently bad. Just means that I was considerably less them impressed with her behavior in the MC's early encounters with her.

Yes, right away when he mentioned his father gave it to him aka as soon as she realized he wasnt lying and the guitar was his, because before that she didnt know where Chad got the guitar from.
Do you want me to fire the game and post the screenshots, or admit that you are doubling down on semantincs because of ego alone. This is you.

I swear, its like I said to another person earlier today, you come with already preconceived opinions about characters, glance over the text, then fill in the blanks to reinforce your biases.

I am not going to quote myself, so second option it is.

Damn, is past so many time that I forgot where I was in the game...

Well,, I did bait you to respond to me,.

But, your take is a bit condradictonial to me, Let's say as you said, you say you don't like Sage and you justify why not. But also as you said, no amount of response would change your mind.

But my question then, why the fuck you even bother then to say your opinion if you not looking for a conversation or response. You obviously want others to know your opinion otherwise, you would not even write it in the first place if that would not be the case.

so, I'm kind of confused, you obviously don't give a fuck about someone else opinion, it does not effect you, but somehow you feel the need to share your opinion.

at least in this "theoretical conversation " what you used as a base for your take

oh btw

Part of people following this, not everyone ofc, doesn't make it right.
And like Annon correctly mentioned, guitar scene is not even a "first impression".

It's relevant in the sense if their "reasons" for disliking the character turn out to be just their own stupidity, i get to point and laugh. And who doesn't like free entertainment?

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

No worries, just start over and don't forget to come here often to make sure you like the proper LI or you won't be welcomed properly.

*Roll eyes*

No. It appears all main girl paths are locked after ep 8, so you're either in or out of their path depending on the choice you make that episode.

So far, it might be a way later, since there is the cheating stat involved and Maya and Josy are still a pair despite heavy hints of solo relationships, I doubt the Doc will have you end alone if you fuck up your ep8 relationship, or if you didn't commit to anyone then.

There is also the route where you pick Bella after dating Jill and if you kiss her she keeps the picture, it has to lead to something.

This guy killed love interests in his previous game and somehow you don't think that cheating your love interest, is actually can leading to a Bad end where MC is fucked and left alone at the end ?

Ok, Today I learnt a new word: strawmaning (god bless the Urban Dictionary)

 

[KАRАMBA]

the "Tybalt's blackmail" plot

It wasn't blackmail.
The noble Sir Theobald von Burke was forced to save Lady Jill's honor from a dirty peasant.
Because he, Sir Theobald, is Lady Jill's true destiny.

> 'I dislike Sage because I dislike redheads' Nothing I can argue against that, its his taste and his opinion.
> I disliked Sage because she did x, y and z when in reality none of those happen in the game is not an opinion anymore.

Is this easy enough to grasp, or do I need to bring out the sand box and draw it?
