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

[Gunizz]

I think both Jill & Sage are the best for long term relationships. Jill being number 1. She has shown zero jealousy or stalker tendencies to this point.

Sorry, what? Are we playing the same game where if you go help Sage, as you promised her, Jill takes it so personally, a sign of God against you?

What confuses me the most is that MC is having sex with prostitutes and not using condoms. Riona has been doing it for a long time, the MC plays Russian roulette every time he puts his dick in her. But that's AVN logic too.

The answer is quite simple. DPC cannot fit almost anything to the characters. You should have noticed that there is always a big gap betweet a clothing asset and the bare skin. It's evidently a non elementary task to properly fit using DAZ because it's a common problem of most developers, DPC is worse than average in that (he has no time to precisely pose each render). Imagine how bad would it look for a condom, having it floating over a cock. He would waste so much time trying to fit one. It's just simpler to always avoid condoms.

I have done that, thanks. That's what I meant by "even after one learns how to sort chronologically the search results".
That orders search result by datetime desc, which is useful to find the latest occurences of a word in a thread, for instance.

BUT... if I want to find the F95 thread for a game, here's what I get by searching from F95 homepage:

When you look for a game, you have to activate "Search titles only". Or better option: LATEST UPDATES > Filter > search by title

The list of names that could end up dead in a convincing way is extensive:

• Quinn (depending on the path)

 

[Lord Bradley]

AL is fucked up as hell. Saying it won't be as dark as AL doesn't mean anything, honestly. You may not have to choose who lives and who dies in a fire, but that doesn't mean DPC won't kill off any characters.

Maya and Derek's mom won't make it to the end of the game alive. I'm sure other characters won't either. The list of names that could end up dead in a convincing way is extensive:

• Quinn (depending on the path)
• Riona (depending on the path)
• Lily (depending on the path)

• Tommy (caught in the crossfire)
• Buddy (killed by cops, MC or Quinn)
• Vinny (killed by cops, MC or Quinn)

• Neil (accident)
• Stephen (suicide)
• Derek (illness)
• MC's grandfather (illness)
• MC's grandmother (death by natural causes)

The list could go on... The point is: don't expect a bed of roses and rainbows in the next chapters.

Vinny is cool as fuck, but I want to beat him to a pulp! Simply put it must be done. He started shit then pulled out a gun like some biyaaatch!

regarding Derek... i don't think there is disease discovered that could take him out, if Derek dies it will be by overdosing on fanny bullets

Remember when dalli_x said Quinn was craving for a CHICK MC? Good times? Best times!
Good to see you're still around.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sorry, what? Are we playing the same game where if you go help Sage, as you promised her, Jill takes it so personally, a sign of God against you?

Isn't it less she decides not going means it's a great personal slight but rather she already has real doubts? And going with her is what changes her mind, alleviates them doubts and strengthens their dynamic? Because she sees another side to the MC regarding his Mom, her opening up about her sister and him been determined to see Jill, they grow closer on that date. Which feels pretty realistic, one good date can be the difference between a ghosting and a relationship starting; sometimes you just blew your chance without even realizing it at the time.

That said how it is structured by DPC is fucking asinine. Mechanically not going does end Jill's route and the player isn't necessarily going to realize that in advance. Especially as Jill seems the type that'd want him to go look after Sage. How important that decision is could've been more clearly signposted or just structured better. You have to to actually gone on the date once to realize why it's important.

I know you don't need this, but for anyone who does, when searching for a game and set up chronologically, go to the "last" result, which is actually the first posted. Unless there's a development thread, or it's a too-common name, that should normally show you the game thread, and everything after is is the update requests, mod threads, random recommendations/issues posts, etc.

Yeah, people seem to forget that Jill was being blackmailed at that point, she had already decided NOT to see the MC at that point, the "date" was going to be her way of saying bye. Obviously as the date goes on Jill PoV changes and she thinks fuck not seeing him again, but the decision to not see MC again was already made and without it she cant see things in another light.

Its a pretty shitty move from DPC here that there's no way of knowing what that choice entails, esp considering its set up that she was walking away on that date anyway. Its like the game pushes you to Sage.

if your idea by depending on path is "let Quinn having Rio" or "save Rio from Quinn" than i like it.

 

[ZenoMod]

I like Lily, but you pay her $$$$ for a BJ at the Prep mansion party.

IIRC if you have a chick or neutral affinity (and maybe some other variables) she gives you that BJ for free.

dalli_x is not a very logical source of theories.

 

[Ray_D]

• Quinn (depending on the path)

I agree.

• Riona (depending on the path)

I agree.

• Lily (depending on the path)

I agree.

• Tommy (caught in the crossfire)

I agree.

• Buddy (killed by cops, MC or Quinn)

He will probably be killed by the police or quinn, the MC is not that kind of protagonist unless DPC gives him tremendous character development.

• Vinny (killed by cops, MC or Quinn)

He will probably be killed by the police or quinn, the MC is not that kind of protagonist unless DPC gives him tremendous character development.

• Neil (accident)

Probably and hopefully it will serve for a real change in the mc if you want him to kill vinny.

• Stephen (suicide)

• Derek (illness)

Don't worry bro I will name maya's first son after you, if she doesn't die in the fire.

• MC's grandfather (illness)

• MC's grandmother (death by natural causes)

 

[Better Cock Spock]

You can end with Jill in a CHICK path having sex with: Sage, Bella, Josy, Maya, Jade, Lily, Camila, Riona, Melanie, Sarah, Quinn, Nora... I call it the asshole CHICK path

You can't fuck Nora on Jill's path, you automatically leave the bar. Same with the Sandy/Nicole threesome.

That's what saves, rollbacks, and autosaves are for. This is a game, not life, thankfully...

 

[Gunizz]

Bella has natural ass. Sage has squat booty. There's a difference.

You missed what I said. Her ass is NOW bigger. An ass cannot grow like that in just a week. It was a joke about how DPC heavily "improves" the characters, sometimes only in one single scene. I don't know if Sage is always going to have a bigger ass than Bella in the future. For example Elena has been modified from what we've seen in the preview.

I don't think DPC made that choice in error, without planning or for excessive simplification. It could be that he wants to send the message that Jill is not so sweet and generous. She does not want MC to help a female friend, despite her invite arriving late, because something about her character makes her do so, and maybe we'll discover her negative attitude later. It looks like DPC gave us a red flag about her.
Otherwise it would be a really shitty plot device, too much. But it would not fit with his style, in my opinion.

It's just a special render, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Not even the first time, just look at Maya's gigantic ass here!

You're really putting a lot of stock into the idea of Jill being jealous that MC chose to help a female friend. If Jill really were that petty, she'd have dumped his ass when Josy and Sage recognized his dick during Tyballs' presentation.

It's just bad timing, he could've been going back home to see his dad or helping at the senior home again, it'd have the same result. But DPC didn't really stick the landing there.

Well no, its not that she ends things because you were looking after a sick friend, remember she was always going to end things thanks to Tybalt (that was the whole purpose of the date) but without it she can never fall in love with you and remains blindsighted by the melonfucker.

The options are this:
Go on the date, where Jill is going to tell you she cant see you to have her realise she loves you and stops that train of thought
Dont go on the date, where Jill is going to tell you she cant see you, not give her the chance to fall in love with you and continue the train of thought.

The looking after Sage bit is irrelevant,the MC could have done anything but go to that date and it would result in the same. He could have gone to the strip club, shopping, Back home to his dad. If he doesn't get on that date Jill doesn't realise her feelings

Now I might be remembering this out of order. But do you the player not know that this is what Jills intentions are? If a naive first time player sees this he will actively avoid the Jill date to stop her ending things. Its like the game pushes you towards Sage.

Oh FFS, Better Cock Spock first and with less words.

You can totally fuck Nora on Jill's path, at least the first encounter in the bathroom. Can 100% confirm this to be the case. I haven't played in a few updates but my DIK character was on Sage/Jill/Bella paths while playing around with certain other characters like Jade and Nora. That was like the 4th or 5th major update tho.

It's funny how helping Sage is not essential for her path whatsoever, but it is a nice scene.

You must not have gone on the picnic date with Jill then. I suppose you can technically be on her path at that point even if you didn't go, but it won't succeed without it.

Good choice to just give up. You cannot beat my Maggot Brother, he is the king.

That exactly it, its like the game is pushing you towards Sage - Now Id argue that Sage should have ended things for not going to help her, only argue slightly though, its not a hill id die on. But after being let down so much by her ex, it would make sense here. More so than Jill just walking away and ghosting you. the whole thing has been executed poorly
