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

The thing with Quinn, for me, is that, as heinous as her actions are, she's like one of those villains/anti-heroes that you can't help but like even if they've done some pretty terrible things, like Harley Quinn, or Loki, or Vegeta. All characters who've done a lot of bad things including killing people, but other aspects of them, redemptive moments, 180 character arcs, have made them fan-favourites despite once being very villainous characters. Of course, Quinn hasn't had any redemptive moments yet, but I think she could go that way and that's part of the reason I somewhat like her.

Could be a foreshadow of a situation we might face

I think so. I think it would suck if not going down the Jill path and getting her ending meant that we completely break her heart, so it might be better if we could sort of set her up with Rusty in a kind of "this is the man for you, not me" kinda way, because then at least she could be happy.

Every single time you choose "Cum inside pussy", FLASHBACK!

So every possible time? That would be quite the flashback, might replay the whole game at that point

She also referenced how guys can be when they're around their friends and the MC can answer, "scared to be themselves", which Jill agrees with. So maybe she felt like she saw the real Rusty before he met up with the DIKs and she liked it, but then felt she couldn't trust him to always be like that since he changed when around friends.

Could be a small hint that, if Rusty betters himself as a result of this DIK reformation, Jill might give him another chance in the event that the MC doesn't end up with her.

Or that if she notices the MC is different among friends that with her she might dump him too.

You just have to admire the level of dedication of the player community...

It really could be anything, but I just feel that there's a reason why we got this info about Jill and Rusty. I don't think DPC would have included this little tidbit if it's just going to end up being a big old nothing burger.

Quinn asking Camilla if Mona is going to be a problem? Imagine what Derek's going to do when he find's out concerning Maya? I can get past the drugs aspect. A little weed is fine, birth control pills to boost muscle growth (weird but ok) however the prostitution angle makes Quinn a piece of human garbage to me. I think she's hot as hell and if it weren't for that last part I'd jump on it but that's one side chick that I did the route to get the scene's and then reloaded and skipped that.

Exactly how I feel. Quinn is not redeemable to me. I just can't be "okay" with someone profiting off the pimping out of another person, especially someone they are supposed to be "sisters" with and watch out for. If Sage knows, which I am still not clear on, it will make Sage a no go for me too. And I love me some Sage.

The reason she hasn't had and redemptive moments is because she keeps going deeper and ignoring those above moments. Riona has told her that they should stop, her own common sense has got to be telling her that she's in to deep. She is literally stealing from her sisters and her sorority to fund her own bullshit. So even the girls not whoring are now at risk as well.

I dont watch a lot of tv, watch most modern movies or read comic books so I don't get the reference to HQ, Loki or Vegata so hard to judge. I know Loki as a Norse God and he is evil incarnate without a lot of redeeming features. Sorry

Yep! She is diving head first into shit creek and it feels more like she is going to end up either in jail, dead, or looking to the MC to help her get out of trouble (because game logic). I am fine with letting her drown in her own shit. She's never been more than an ass to my MC. I know others have had different interactions but in my game she is an irredeemable POS.

 

[Cndyrvr4lf]

Holy Bacchus I guess I don't understand how you can label Quinn as a Anti-Hero. Lets see if we can find a common ground, I'm guessing your younger than me but I could be wrong. Blade, The Crow to me are Anti-Heroes. They kill people, torture, maim etc. etc. but they do it to protect others. They are bad guys killing other bad guys to make the world a better place. Quinn doesn't do that. She whores out the people she should protect as the VP of the Hot's all to serve her own selfish needs. There is nothing anti-hero involved in that.

Blasphemy!!! Sugar Tits is redeemable. She just needs love, care, and a baseball bat full of love. Without the Taser.

Sage is disappointed if the MC remembers Lily as a Pink Rose dancer (as opposed to saying she's a DIK recommendation). Given that, and the way Quinn tends to stop talking about the business when Sage arrives, I'm inclined to think Sage does not know about the restaurant.

boy, if people here are disgusted with some character, it is because the writer is doing a good writing in the story, where people can express love, anger, sadness, repudiation by the attitudes, I like Maya even after her hesitation, others here hate her, this is what makes this game great, each choice is a consequence and follows a different path, whether someone likes it or not .... Quiin even I don’t like her, I want her away from my MC. Even Riona and others are better than her. XD

Honestly hope so. Sage is one of my top 3.

I'm sure Sage doesn't know the full extent of it. But how much does she know? That conversation during the Sexy Car Watch looked to me like she knew something.

I have a theory That Bella locked room is her own room. since, her teenage years because it's her parents home. Look at Bella boots!

That's acually the most likely theory I've heard so far, considering that now we know it used to be her parents' house.

 

[AvatarStormBringer]

I will not invest anymore affection into Quinn until DPC reveals more of her backstory, of how she's so hell bent to earn money in anyway possible, of how she becomes like this. Something or some event shaped her, just like Bella. I am currently reading Legendary Moonlight Sculpture and in some ways she is like Weed.

Now we could take it to its most logical follow-up question. What could have happened to make Bella seal away her childhood/late teen years' room in that way?

 

[drcynic22]

Yeah, I'm on the opposite end of that one, buddy. I see Quinn as something of a tragic character, someone who has a veneer of being this tough, callous, manipulative person, but is hiding some deep emotional trauma underneath and using this veneer to shield herself from both dealing with it and other people seeing it. She probably hates herself more than anybody else does and while what she's done is wrong, I feel she deserves a 2nd chance if she can change her ways.

I think you've probably got the more likely interpretation. Quinn is almost certainly designed to be a tragic character that the MC can rescue. Of course not everyone can be entirely tolerant of her attitude. She may certainly hate herself and maybe she has a tragic backstory that we can sympathize with, but I've steered my MC far clear of her. She can only bring him long term trouble with drugs and pimping. She also might not necessarily be redeemable. This being a DPC story, there could be a swerve with her with regards to a redemption arc. She could end up getting one of the other HOTs killed or jailed (or maybe even herself). It's just a risk I'm personally not willing to take, though I can understand others who are willing to.

Man that would be logical and actually would agree with Bella's character. Shame it wouldn't have too much to do with her husband or maybe it would...?

I was thinking other day and maybe Bella's best friend in her college years was Jill's sister and she either hooked up and/or liked each other and that caused some troubles for both, that could explain why she's so awkward with Jill while laying together in the bed and why she said that line about never let anything happen with a friend again (don't remember the line or where it was said exactly, think it was something like that) or (diving in the probably not side of the idea) she blames herself for the sister's death?
