Yeah it is but DPC has already committed to another D&G session. Does he not involve certain characters at all and depending on how much of this episode it takes up potentially limiting their screen time. Does he involve them in an out of character manner and just have them play the game with MC despite it not being a thing they’d do or does he put their face on a princess and at least get a sex scene outta it or some comedy of showing Sage as the damsel in distress.

This isn’t a theory I support just an idea. It can be both a real D&G session and not have all these characters actually partake in the game. It could be like that episode of scrubs where Dr Cox tells his son a story and uses all the hospital staff as characters. Pointless for character development but potentially amusing.
Yeah, I remember that episode because it was from when they had that shortened season that was affected by the WGA strike. But I'd rather not see this episode of BaDIK do anything like that, even if the LIs are involved in the game. We need some actual character development for them in real situations.

I agree the story is important and the drama gives us ups and downs. However everyone needs a hobby. Makes the game deeper and more interesting to throw in moments that don't have anything to do with either of the above. Just my opinion....
Yeah, that's the thing. On the other side I trust DPC to not make a completely filler episode and that this playing session will have some payoff and purpose.

That could be it, but I'd rather have interactions with characters that are participating. If you interact with someone's character at least you are indirectly interacting with that person too. But having someone as an NPC without the person it's based on there, specially if it's for a sex scene, it's just fanservice.

Finally finished a full playthrough and have the following observation:

The MC doesn't seem to have a lot of viable LIs right now.

All these things are true but all those girls are also into him to varying degrees.

just because they’re taken or into someone else right now doesn’t mean they’re not into him and will never be viable. All those reasons they’re not with him now are the drama filled obstacles they’re gonna overcome.

Heck, I wasted my time with M&J, D&G can't be worse... :HideThePain:

Maybe it's just a way to make us spend some time with the Nerds. We spent a lot of time with the DIKs, of course. A lot of time with the HOTs, mmmm... :love: We met the Alphas in several occasions, we spent most of the last episode in Preps house... Maybe now it's time to know the Nerds better, spend some time with them. And what else can you do with the Nerds? Just play D&G with them... I don't mind, I like fantasy, RPGs and I'm curious to know the Nerds better, especially Sally... :HideThePain:

I do not know.

it seems to me that the other confraternities (excluding DIK and HOT) are really secondary, their members are parodic, without much depth ...

Yeah that’s how I see it getting to know nerds better, coupled with some light relationship stuff if you are after those girls.
Maybe how we approach game will factor into chick/dik ways of dealing with nerds if they are indeed stirring things.

The DIKs and HOTs would probably feel like stereotypical parodies too from an outside perspective. We know they're more than that because we've been spending time with them. Now I'm not saying that Anthony, for example, from the Tri-Alphas has many layers to his personality and is deep down an interesting individual but some of them could surprise us. There's a reason the relationship system includes every other fraternity as well, not much point to that if all we're meant to do is mess with them during the whole game.

Diks and Hots are so full of different characters, that they cannot correspond to a stereotype, at least not to only one ...

what is there to remember about the Preps? the only two we know the name are "different" twins ...
and we had enough to do with preps

This one could also be filler.
everything that does not concern the development of a relationship with a LI is technically a filler .. hopefully it will be interesting
I disagree about playing DnG with the nerds being a waste of time, it'll allow MC to get to know them better and he'll also be spending some time with Jill and M&J regardless of the players relationship with them.
in the first game no relationship developed. then M&J and Jill have many opportunities to speak and meet normally. playing a game of D&G is hardly enlightened on the participants

it may be that it will make nerds interesting, and open up some possibilities with Sally, just to keep MC's score high

Again, we know the DIKs have different characters because we've spent time with them. Remember how Maya described them during her tour in EP1, something about their personalities corresponding to their frat name (so they're just dicks). Is that all they are? Absolutely not. But we wouldn't know that if we never joined and went through Hell Week with them.

Like I said, I don't expect anywhere near the same depth from the other fraternities, the game is called Being A DIK for a reason. But I'd be surprised if we've seen the full extent of what they are and they're just rich dudes, gym dudes and nerd dudes.

This week I've mostly been coding and working on GUI design. I can't spoil what it is that I'm working very hard on, but expect some new features starting in the next episode.

I'm creating something that will take a few weeks to fully complete, but once it's complete it will be future-proof and only need tweaking.

So, I will mostly pose animations and focus on writing code in the upcoming weeks.

My PCs are busy rendering animations (pretty long ones right now) while I spend time coding.

The current status of static renders and animations is as follows:

1550 static renders and 62 animations are complete.

I've playtested what I have to play so far and it's about 3 hours worth of content for one thorough playthrough, but I'm far from finished.

In poll news, the winning option in the cosmetic poll for Josy was option 1. It will be featured in episode 6.




A new poll will start sometime next week.

The Beach Fun special render series is coming to an end next week and I hope you're excited about the final renders. I'm sure you can guess who they will feature.

Today's Beach fun render features Jade. 4k and full HD versions are attached to this post.



Have a nice weekend

Whyyyyy did they vote that for Josy :HideThePain:

At least Jade is looking hot as ever

you are right. however it must always be an opportunity to develop relationships between the characters, and with the fact that Maya and Josy in one case would be there as friends and in another as "girlfriends" in my opinion makes it difficult to plan such an event so that is still significant
This one could also be filler.
The first game may not have been a huge milestone but it wasn't just filler either. Two of the LI's were involved at a minimum, that right there is at least story related. So while not groundbreaking it still has story interaction involved. We still have no clue what or if the BBB's even matter in the big picture. Several theories involve BBB's as masterminds behind the whole DIK/AAA storyline. I think y'all need to take a step back and realize that DPC is writing this and we have NO FUCKING CLUE what is and isn't important period.
