Also, if it was up to me, the only minigames I'd keep are the mansion and party planner one. The rest are so annoying and provide 0 replay-ability and he even went to rework fighting minigame lol. It makes replaying game so annoying and so much dev time wasted.
For the sake of replayability, once a player has succeeded in the mansion repair and in the party planner, they should be skippable retaining the same result.

I mean: they can be fun ONCE but we have so many branches, and most of us want to explore if not all of them at least a few... being forced to repeat those looong minigames is a boring waste of time. It's no surprise people resort to cheating.

The same goes with the looong free roams that make impossible to skip already seen content and concentrate only on the differences between branches.

First of all, a couple of serious questions I have

1) The next month, I will use a new computer. If I want to play BaDIK in the new computer with my current full gallery and my saves, what archives do I need to backup?
On Windows, if you go to C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy (or equivalent if changed), you should find folders for all the Ren'Py games you've played, unless you've been in there before and deleted them. This is the backup location for save and persistent files. If you copy this folder over to the same location on the new PC, you'll be golden, even if you haven't yet installed the games themselves. Once you install the games, your save files and settings will be there waiting for you.

Announced Announcements never delivered, no matter what. So... nobody cares.

But the DEV report is looking good to me... a January release is still in reach. Depends on the animations though and how long it takes to render them. Which depends on how long they are, which we dont know. But the whole Dev cycle is build around the animation queue from day one, so no suprise that the animation queue will be the finish line too. But the remaining animations should be done in january. If he can manage it to finish them early january, a january release is possible, otherwise february... but i dont think it will be later than february, that would be weird. It looks like much is left, but its not... besides the animations everything else will be done within a month or so...

That said... i hoped for a october/november release when the dev cycle for this episode started. But at that time i thaught that episode 11 will be smaller than 10. But here we are. If the episode would be about the same as episode 10, it would have been released already. Now the episode is about 20% bigger than the last. I dont like it that we have to wait longer and longer... but getting more content is a trade-off i can live with. Most games deliver less with each update but taking more time... so, yeah. I dont have time to play much in december/january anyways, so the waiting doesnt hurt me anymore at this point. And i still need to complete some playthroughs before episode 11 anyways, enough to do.

January is a pipe dream with a queue of 60 animations, plus the ~20 that still need to be posed for the last lewd scene,

Add in all the statics required for the 20 scenes of various sizes that only have the writing done and combine that with all the time it takes to polish the Episode (which by itself might add more scenes which demand statics/animations) and a Beta that won't be shorter than 3 weeks and only late february/ early March is viable.

That's assuming a 10 animations rendered per week average btw, which is a bit optimistic.

"Special Announcement" next Friday.

He realizes he's about to get a ton of shit for going a whole calendar year without any sort of new Chapter, so he's trying to get in front of it.

I mean, honestly, the thin skinned prick deserves to get shit on here.

He should have NEVER done the Interlude, and he should be releasing this new chapter in chunks if it's going to take this long to get out a new Chapter.
while i agree he deserves a big pile of shit,it's unlikely to happen, no one dares to do it due to not wanting to get banned from his discord and patreon.

Because piracy websites don't exist, or you can't use a Hotmail account and a pre-loaded debit card to set up a fake account for one month to rip on DPC, get that "sock puppet" account banned, and continue on with your regular account.

Tybalt is definitely Madame's biological son: same oily secretion... :HideThePain:
He's not oily, he's wet. He's covered in whatever is in the prep's sprinkler system, either water or fire suppressant chemicals.

Hopefully a very toxic version of the latter, come to think of it.

Yeah, I remenber now, you're right! That scene happened after the sprinkles were set on work by Derek. (I think it's water, then.)

From the rendering, those shiny glares make his skin look more oily than wet (but I get that rendering wet skin is hard), and since I recall Jill saying about how much Tybalt loves to cover himself in olive oil balm... I concluded it was that :D

Thanks for the clarification (y)

What would be the point ? You'd waste money with a second account and DPC wouldn't probably even read your complain. His moderators are faster than our dear mods here.
