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

[Ricthequick]

I know that part, but "Quinn = Priscilla" is just Occam's razor: Stephen is made aware of the free tuition rumor, calls Priscilla, and then the next time we see him after the meeting with Maya is his meeting with Quinn, where he more than likely put an end to the whole thing, and Quinn seemingly confirms it by saying she's going to drop out.

That's why I'm asking in general, for those that do believe this, what is the point of Quinn being Priscilla? It'd be the same exact thing but with an extra step.

What if Priscilla is...

Yoga girl?

Those who believe in it (such as Chip) they will answer you simply because she is evil.

actually for Occam's razor if 2 characters are referred to by different names they are 2 different characters

Although it is the first time we see it directly, it is entirely predictable that Quinn and Burke talk to each other, especially at a critical moment.

Yoga girl?

nah, i think yoga girls name is Nikita.

 

[KАRАMBA]

What if Priscilla is...

Yoga girl?

Btw, it's not the worst idea.
DPC shows her to us several times, as if on purpose. To make this character memorable.
He probably won't make her one of the fuckable girls, which means he's prepared some other role for her.
The role of Priscilla is quite suitable for her.

She doesn't look like a Priscilla at all

It does sound a little villain-ish. "Hello, I'm Cruella de Vil, and this is my sister Priscilla"

You would think But this is DPC...

nah, i think yoga girls name is Nikita.

It's a possibility, not set in stone yet.

 

[NebulousShooter]

Priscilla is Madame, not sure if she was always meant to be, but now after wasting so much time on her he has to give her a purpose.

I don't really give a fuck about who Priscilla is, but I know some think it's Quinn, especially since we see Quinn leave his office in a huff during Episode 10. But I gotta ask... if it is Quinn, what's the point? Some brief extra mystery to tease fans with? What does "Priscilla" add to Quinn as a character, or to the story? What noticeable difference does it make calling her that instead of just Quinn?

I don't think Quinn is Priscilla.
Quinn leaves Burke's office in a huff because he announced to her that their collaboration is over.
That's why she tells MC that she's going to leave college.
Someone has already said that Priscilla may be Madame Rose. I agree with that.

If Priscilla = Quinn (which I don't think, although at one time I did think it possible), you can see why she goes by Quinn, the Divine Priscilla just doesn't have the same zing to it.

I don't think Priscilla is Quinn. First and foremost the call happen before the holloween party. If Quinn is Priscilla they should have a talked before the holloween party event because there is plenty of time for that to happen if it is very important. Another issue is how Stephen speak to Priscilla is as if she is a higher standing or they are equal partner.

I was just stirring some shit, originally wanted to write Bella, but she stared at me for 2 seconds and I changed my mind
No idea who Priscilla might be, I actually legit forgot about that name.

so either the solution will be trivial or we will never know who Priscilla is

yeah, it feels like burke is about to say "housten we have a problem" before the scene ends.

A character no one gives a fuck about and a lot don't ever encounter? Imagine taking down her prostitution ring, killing her stooge Vinny, and stealing all her precious oil by the end of the game.

Here's a guess totally from left field: Priscilla is MC's grandma. She's a big time pimp, while her husband dicks around with hotels and other stupid shit.

Hmmm... For a Swedish author, this is a completely logical plot I guess.
Nothing out of the ordinary.
Maybe you have Swedish roots too?

Pretty sure Quinn being Priscilla doesn't satisfy Occam's Razor. But whether it does or not, please tell me what you think Occam's Razor is about. Massive amounts of people don't understand it and try to apply it incorrectly. They are basically trying to take a shortcut to being smart without actually using their brains. So whenever I see people invoking it, I just get an intense urge to make sure they actually understand it and to get them to stop misusing it if they don't.

Before I answer, let me just say that's quite a demeaning response, it makes you come off somewhat insufferable, and it isn't the first time. There's more diplomatic ways to say I'm using it wrong, or less rude in any case.

That being said, the way I understand it is that the simplest answer is usually the best. And how I'm trying to apply it in this dumb Quinn = Priscilla theory, is in an attempt to try and see why people even come to that conclusion in the first place. Priscilla is mentioned that one and only time, after Stephen has a conversation with Maya regarding the free tuition. Quinn is deeply involved with the free tuition scheme, and is the only person who would make some sense, outside of an entirely different character (which it most likely is). We see they had some sort of conversation in Episode 10, and Quinn later states that she is thinking about dropping out, presumably because the entire thing is being shut down. So, is Priscilla just Quinn's name or a different person? I don't care, but I can see why some might think it's the former, and how a second person seems messy.
