I can't believe this game is still waiting for an update after a year and there are still so many people here that white knight for DPC and this game. It's fun and done well, but what a weird Stockholm Syndrome situation. LOL
Of all the trash-talking, crap games, good games, and lord knows the self-importance on here, this is the one thread and dev you most definitely aren't allowed to say something negative about. People will riot. Let any other game take more than 4 months and people are losing their minds, but not DPC. lol

No one here white knights for DPC. People say negative stuff about him all the time. Anyone that white knights, gets teased relentlessly.

Now that we're done with the previews, remember back in May when DPC said this? Either he has a very high bar for what he considers a spoiler, or this claim was complete and total bullshit. Now, BIG story spoilers like anything regarding Rio was not posted (outside of that Quinn preview, which doesn't tell us too much), but we got some pretty sexy previews that probably would've worked better as a total surprise.

Thoughts?
I would have to say that DPC in all his egotistical wisdom only considers the main story beats to be spoiler worthy and none of the sexy fun times with any of the ladies even though moments with them tend to come with some good character or relationship developments. It sucks and it is disappointing that they aren't going to be a surprise during one of the playthroughs but living through the age of social media I've gotten used to that feeling.

Other than brand new players or those who pop in every once in a while to praise the game, I don't know if anyone legitimately white knights for DPC here. At best, they'll downplay the negatives (like the dev time) and take stuff at face value (DPC being a self-proclaimed perfectionist).

There's a big surprise all right - No anal scene with Josy & Maya. :)

So... there's like 3 modders that have worked on this game and I'm sure at least one of them has quit or vanished IIRC.

Anyone know which mod is still being developed? Hate to have my saves all worthless next month.

I'm a new player, so i haven't had to sit through a full development cycle, the next one is going to hit like a brick

For me, it's a balance. Knowing i'll have to wait at least a year fucking sucks and i'm dreading it months before the update is even out. I wish he'd focus more on the bulk of the game than mini games and pointless Madame Rose scenes (i haven't watched one, and i don't plan to)

But at the same time, it's a fucking good game, with a host of really complex, likeable characters who you can genuinely empathise with or get attached too. I haven't played an absolute ton of VN's, but for me the visual quality is the best in genre (aside from the fucking metal teeth), the animations are great, the gameplay loop is fun. I struggle with other VNs sometimes cause it's streamlined, it's one story beat to the next, BaDik has the free roam system that lets you breathe, take in the world with Rooster or text messages

But then, you finish all the routes, and you twiddle your thumbs for a year. Like i said, for me it's the balance. It's very rare (especially with solo devs), that you get a good mix of quality content, and get it quickly. When i'm 8 months into a dev cycle for the first time, i'll probably be a lot more harsh :LOL:

I think i seen somewhere that Scrappy gave up due to the branching just being too much work to factor in

I'm not sure about the other two

Sancho has been MIA for like half a year, there were storms in his area around the time he stopped posting. Doesn't bode well... and idk who the third one modder is.

That's total bullshit. Show a location with just a hand or something or a part of a render, and you get a preview that create story and anticipation (well we got this sort of thanks to the boredom of waiting for the next update with so amazing 4K/240FPS animations and dozens of new mini-games). There a just middle to find, imo DPC is far away from the middle, he's just full of "This drink is a spoiler" when it's the can in frontpage of the dazstore but the render of Maya pushing a dildo in fuckface ass is not spoiler (but it should be)

This may be my episode deprived brained talking, but what if we found out that the real 'Paradigm Shift' would be finding out that Arieth is not actually pregnant and she's actually an undercover agent trying to sniff out crime in B&R and she acts the way she does as to lower everyone's guard thus giving her the ability to freely investigate the college without anyone suspecting. Her being part of the HOTs gives her constant contact with persons of interest of the various fraternities and sorority, making the reason she sleeps with every guy is to collect information on the inner social structure and potentially find out if any of them are involved in criminal activity hence why she fails her classes as to extend her investigation period.

P.s. Episode deprivation, makes one come up with the wildest theories; this one doesn't even make sense.

P.s.s. I didn't read the last few comments so this completely random.

P.s.s. Also not sure if someone came up with this inane theory before, most likely somebody did.
You need to replay the game it might mitigate your sickness

Sancho is MIA

Scrappy there's a rumour that he might drop modding the game

The last I think is just the URM
