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

[Crusader of Romance]

Well, first of all Him going to Full time developer, so he can focus more on the game for Faster and Better was already a lie, is it not ?

It's Funny how he was able to release 3 update in a year , with a day job, while this was a side project, and if we add those numbers together, the actual quantity is almost equal to the recent episodes what take him even longer now, wihtout a regular day job and way better equipment

So the size of the episodes and higher quality renders doesn't count? The fact that one episode is now as big as the whole first season? You expect an episode the size of the whole season to take the time of one episode in season 1?

It's stupid to debate at this point the man is rich and set for life... He has multiple avenues he could take to speed up development but he takes none of them. The biggest burden on dev time was his decision to split the game into multiple paths at the end of season 2 now every episode requires progress with those paths... imo there is more chance of DPC burning out now as the development time gets longer every episode. Like working on an episode for 6 months to a year his goal is in sight but when it approaches closer to two years that's a crazy time investment for something by yourself.

People keep saying he can speed it up. But none of the examples would speed up the thing that takes most time, the manual workload. Less animation and shorter rendering time won't help if the rest isn't finished. Cutting content is the only way but nobody seems to want that. They want it all, just a shorter development time. Unless he hires writers and coders.
We all know a game similar to Being a DIK that hired people to shorten the development time, and we all know how that went. A messy second season, remaking episodes because the quality became much worse, massive bugs, dropping from 7000 patreons to less than 1300. Now that game is back to one lone developer and longer development time but that damage is already done. Was it worth it?

If all game developers had that attitude then nothing would ever release. Besides this is a visual novel... If he wants to handle the writing himself that's fine but setting up scenes with daz3d assets and creating sex animations doesn't require mozart. There are loads of skilled scripters out there too. Besides DPC is known for going off the deep end with his mini games nobody cares about and useless animations of characters running etc lol

And that's the problem. Some of you see this as "just a VN" or "just a porn game", and you can't accept that it's more to him. He's not doing this just for you guys, he's doing it because he enjoys doing it and you guys can't accept that. You want a quick factory product.

And Being Alady rest of life.
Think about it.

Only Josy is Alady

You just don't believe in yourself.

I rather be inside Josy then be a lady

 

[KАRАMBA]

So you wanted to deceive all of us ?
You didn't say - Being inside Alady. You say - Being Alady.
It sounded like an advertisement, you know.

Being Alady meaning Being Josy since she is the Alady

Speaking from the perspective who has spent 100s of hours making detailed mods and stuff for games,

To me, if people are paying for the Patreon, then they're entitled to be upset or wanting faster updates. If you're just getting it from this site and moaning and berating DPC, then just grow up, it's a game/VN, if DPC wants to take a year for an update to ensure its good quality, he is well within his rights.

Do i want to play more, of course, but let the guy work at his own pace. If he rushed things to get it out quicker, people would moan. When working on stuff creatively, you can choose between quality or speed. Add in personal issues, and he's probably been burnt out at some point, it's a human being who makes this stuff, not just a robot that spams out work and has nothing else going on in life

DW, you know, I have to admit how much I respect you.
Yes, you have proved that you are the King. You're the first Simp.
No one can compare to you.
No one knows Josy better than you do.
And that's why no one but you can be Josy. Being Alady.
But you can.
You just have to believe in yourself and try.

[felicemastronzo]

if you are so ashamed to frequent this site... you should not do so.

i don't understand what paying and having a judgement has to do with it, which then only seems to apply in the case of a negative judgement, because instead worshipping something you are not willing to pay for is fine i guess.

they're just opinions, none of them, taken individually, are worth anything, and it won't be the $5 subscription that makes the difference.

More time ≠ more quality by default.

Complaining here is free, complaining in Patreon/Discord means you pay money and get banned, and the complaints here have no less merit than from Patrons. If all it takes to make a complaint valid is $1, then what's the difference?

I will not elaborate further.

Good point. I meant to ask this for a while , in a non so offensive way, but there is no better way to say so . . Are you happen to Be Gay for Leonard Nimoy ?

No Trolling, Genuine question BTW

No I'm not gay for Nimoy lmao

You could have fooled me Man . most simps are posting their waifu, but you post more of this FuckFace, than Bella, so you can't blame me

 

[MiltonPowers]

I beat Spock to it!

Milton, you're next!

You mean ANO house. And it's a party filled with HOTs. Sage has been MIA virtually the entire time, avoiding her dad who she says is just there to schmooze. And would you look at that, there's a man who is wondering where his daughter is, in a large mansion where it's easy to hide. Hmmm, why would anyone ever think that was Sage's dad? Almost like it was intentional...

10 Hours later....,.

You mean Prep's Mansion.

Hey if you want more Bella, I'll post more Bella. It's just that my username and avatar are tied to an iconic character, so why not incorporate that into my memes? If I chose Bella for my profile pic, and my name was... idk, BellaLover69, then yeah I'd probably post nothing but Bella.

10 Hours later....,.

You mean Prep's Mansion.

That's what I said, Alpha Nu Omega, aka the preps. Don't hate me because I decided to use the proper acronym

Me after Episode 11 release.

Leave poor Milton alone, he's all hopped up on goofenthal

Thanks Maggot Brother. Been up a few hours and looks like I might be coming off the hard stuff today.

I was replying to someone who said HOTs mansion, because Roger asked me too. I was going to use ANO too, but I thought people would think I was just copying you.
