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

[The Bush Diver]

Brothers, I've got a situation which I can't go after to solve as of now: with the loss of an HD at the time, I don't have any more saves from seasons 1 and 2.

That said, I'm replaying eps. 9 and 10 and as of now I'm redoing Bella's branch, and I cannot remember anything about a handbook that the MC keeps asking her about...Can any kind soul refresh my memory?

 

[ThatGuy_Shaggy]

Technical question:

I'm using the torrent file to download the game, and see it's about 37GB. Considering the files for Season 1-2 is 20GB, and the latest stuff is around 12GB, does this mean the torrent contains the full game?

I'd appreciate any confirmations.

They're referring to the teacher's handbook, and specifically what it says about teachers dating students.

Ah I was getting worried that no one would ask me.

Starting point is indeed 2^15 or 32768. However you are not allowed to fight Caleb if you didn't fight the jocks so we must subtract the 2^13 or 8192 iterations where that would happen. Now we are at 24576, but we are not done. You see if you go all in on either extreme you get permanent affinity at ep 6. In ep 8 you will have the neutral option just like in s 3 so they don't affect the number of iterations, but ep 7 just forces you to stick to your permanent affinity. That gives you 24 iterations that aren't possible if you get permanent affinity at choice 11 and a further 80 if you get it at choice 12. So we end up with 24472.

That much I could handle, but calculating how many possible ways there are to choose the girls or play the paths is a nightmare I'm not going to even attempt.

Yeah, those numbers do check out.

So that's a weird mess for valid combinations over the first thirteen choices, times four for choices 14 and 15 always giving you two options, independent of how the mess turns out...

There is a whole section of Saves under Extra's i think. or you can ask IT

 

[Macky009]

I'm not sure who I want MC to hatefuck more - Sally or Becky

In my case it's Sally, I want to hatefuck her so bad since the time he slap mc on the sauna. For Becky, I don't hate her but I don't want to touch her either especially knowing she goes around fucking popular people

Almost 15 months now since the last update... I've seen games tagged as "abandoned" that were updated more often.

I actually believe this will eventually be abandoned.

I'm really sorry you're being abandoned.
Whose basement are you going to live after the divorce,
mom's or dad's ?

Shut up Bitch

" You not a Main Girl, and you never be, you just a plot device with vagina. And You never Be more. "

 

[soprano31]

Shut up Bitch

The signs are there,and the prayers are being answered,
it really isn't long to wait for redemption..

 

[KАRАMBA]

" You not a Main Girl, and you never be, you just a plot device with vagina. And You never Be more. "

He repeats this idiotic quote so often that I'm starting to suspect that he's the "Main girl" in this game.

No need to worry about getting in trouble. If Dawe can get away with assaulting a teacher, Bella can get away with banging a student.

I'm still stunned by that. Throws a can of drink and hits a teacher in the head and teases her (proving it was not an accident), and nothing. WTF!

Especially when Cathy is staunchly anti-bullying too. Maybe the can was empty? I'm reaching here, it's either that, Dawe got in trouble off-screen, or Dawe completely gets away with it because his family are big donors or some shit (I believe his family owns the local gym?)

Sage: Not like Dawe. Well...his family gym's been sponsoring the tri-alphas for years, but other than that, he leaves everything to Chad.

They work, or DPC just forgot about it and didn't come up with a punishment.

DPC... forget something? How dare you


But seriously, it is weird. Sticks out a lot, although that tends to happen during the first installment of a series, takes time to iron things out.

Well there is always a weekly update in the game development of Being a DIK. So it won't have the abandoned sign.

I'm still stunned by that. Throws a can of drink and hits a teacher in the head and teases her (proving it was not an accident), and nothing. WTF!

It is that or Cathy is just a big softy who can't punish a student even though they did something horrible. One good example is Chad

So in a few days it is finally time for Bella and Jill threesome right?

Here's something scary: In April last year I predicted this episode would take around ~450 days to complete (see graph below, original post here):

This was just jokingly based on the exponential increase in episode development time we've seen from episodes 2 - 10.

It was a joke, but it turned out to be right...

If DPC doesn't reign his shit in, it'll be almost 15 years before the last episode is done!
