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

[Darkmetal]

I have a lot of problems with the library scene. A lot. One of them is that J&M should accept or reject the MC based on what they know (RP), not on what they don't know (DIK status). They don't know if you smoked a joint, punched Troy or accepted Quinn's number, why should they make their choice based on that?

You raise a good point as affinity is sometimes not implemented consistently in the game and is certainly not described as accurately as it should be in how it's applied.

With regards to relationships (as opposed to when it is used as action gateways like whether you can choose if you want to wear the dick hat first or not), it acts in the vein of your personality & accumulated reputation around campus as interpreted by others, rather than MC's mood or some such.

One does not have to be a witness to every action or even any of it to perceive what a guy or girl's reputation is. This in turn will influence how MC's actions are interpreted and received depending on their own inclinations and attitude. e.g. Maya is OK with MC sniffing her hair as the actions of a sweet guy, but will react and perceive the very same action negatively if the word going round is that the MC is a bit of perv. Conversely, the HoTs, even if they've never seen you do anything personally are more inclined to receive you positively if the "word around campus" is that MC is that of a "bad boy," but are not inclined to give MC the time of day if they think he is a bit of a wimp.

For lack of a better word "types" do matter. To use a GoT example, Jorah may have the highest "RP" with Daenerys than anyone, but "earnest devotion" types are just not her thing, she prefers the no nonsense leader type. That guy wasn't getting out of the friends zone no matter how high his "RP" was.

For the millionth time, it's not our story, it's DPC story to tell but then again you seem to have your own fictitious copy of the game.

DPC is telling a story, yes, and there's a large overarching narrative within this game, but there are also the smaller events and decisions that the MC makes throughout that allows players to forge their own series of events within that greater story. Some people might choose to sleep with Josy and some don't, some might choose to dance with Sage at the party and some people might choose to go back to Maya, some people choose to wear the dildo and not kiss Jill and some choose not to wear the helmet, etc.

You're forming your own personal series of events within the grander narrative and this is how people might view things differently or simply not know what you're talking about if they haven't played a specific part. It's like those text-adventure games they had back in the 80s, where there was an overarching narrative but you chose how to do specific parts making you feel like you were the one driving the story even though were just particpating in it.

Choices that DPC has made for us we are just merely navigating through his story maybe you should send the rest of us your version as it's clearly different from ours.

And there are different ways to navigate through that story which is what can make the experience of each player different. It's a very simple concept and perhaps if you weren't so predisposed to disagree with everything I say just because I said it you'd see that.

 

[Dark Horizon]

Any idea when the next update will be?

May probably

Within the borders of what has been set by the dev.Wether you like it or not there is an objective reality within the world created by the author,one that cannot be changed by opinion or desire for the story to go different way than it does.When something happens,it happens,its cannon. - very simple concept btw.

Perhaps if you would start listening and stop ignoring,not just what people are telling you but the script of the game itself,people would act differently towards you.

 

[viktheone]

I just want me some Sage :3

 

[Darkmetal]

The conversation with Dawe was about alphas being under more strict survailence,making the purchase of steroids much more risky than before.Alphas as customers are currently hmmm..."cripled"

Quinn mentions her talk with Dawe to Riona.

You are indubitably correct. Nevertheless, I am maintaining hope that Dawe's urgent problem knocking on Quinn's door is seeking meds due to this Tri-Alpha problem...

Oh FFS, of course there's an objective reality, it's called the overarching narrative(s), I'm not denying that, but if someone chooses to stay with Bella rather than Sage then for that person, those events with the MC in the HOT house didn't happen for them. This is what I mean in saying that doing certain events and not doing others means that players can see things differently.

Again, to take the example of staying with Sage, those who don't choose that don't get to hear what the HOTs say about Quinn often talking about the MC and they don't get to see what happens with Quinn when you go into her room. This can make that person's perception of the relationship with her different than someone who did do it, even more so if they didn't do the threesome and/or the rooftop sex. For that person, there's nothing going on between them because they avoided all interactions with her.

We see this all the time in this thread with how people have different perceptions of the different characters and relationships within the game because of the choices they made which, again, is why I'm saying that the different ways people can approach this game can and do lead to people having different views and that this will become more polarised as the game goes on.

Perhaps if people understood more about how peoples perceptions of human behaviour are different based on their own experiences, they'd stop giving me so much undue shit just because I view certain character's actions and motivations differently because of this. I might have, at times, overlooked or misinterpreted some parts of the story, but there's still so much that isn't set in stone, and yet anytime I say anything it's met with with a cacophany of people telling me I'm wrong even when the thing I'm supposedly wrong about is as yet unknown. It's such utter bullshit and I'm getting sick of being singled out like this.

We use spoiler tags for a week after each release. There isn't much of a point using them three months after the last release.

I'm super late on the band wagon, I only discovered the game like two days ago. That said, since I got kinda spoilers anyway, now I'm just super curious, is something super dark going on with Isabelle? NGL, that library scene has me concerned

This part of the story is yet to be uncovered. Stay tuned.

 

[SpikeZg]

when EP5 drops, which path are you going for first?
for me, i'll try DIK path with hope that there will be a romance option with Camila

Right now I don't have much interest in doing different paths, especially the DIK path, so I'm just going to carry on with my main Neutral path then see what's different if you stay friends with Maya and Josy. After that I'll get the Scrappy mod to unlock the scenes from the other paths.

There's a tutorial in the Brawler app. Use that.

Which fight is it? If it's the one with Chad I wouldn't worry too much about it, use the tutorial or if it's too much I'd advise to just skip mini-games

Sig link two in the OP didn't take me to the right place. Not sure if the link broke due to the thread purge or if the reapers messed with N7 but the actual post with that set of sigs was on a previous page.

Yeah most likely the case I think there should be some sort of sperate page set aside for the sigs it would save having to update it everytime a post is deleted.
