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

[Kuraii]

When I finished episode 5 I felt a little sad because I wasn't going to know anything about the game until the next episode, but then I found this cool community.

I am now on page 3888, still with the D&G game discussion. Every day 4-5 new pages are added, so I don't know if I will manage to reach the current conversation, and I feel that somehow the D&G topic still stands lol.

 

[AvatarStormBringer]

Let me get this straight, Jill is TOO sincere?

Since when has being genuine and honest been a bad thing?

Genuine and honest are good traits. Too much though can be overwhelming. Jill is such person. Look at her trying to help MC when he was given the wedgie, and her helping Jill, and her helping MC not only when he was ambushed by Chad, but reporting the incident when she was asked not to.

Imagine if she found out Quinn's problems and decided to help. I don't think she has what it takes to tango with druglords. And she might make situations worse.

 

[CAznable]

It isnt just that. I just find her very dull and boring. Looks wise she isnt really anything special, and her closeups are kinda hideous at times.

I will be honest I dont have any interest in Jill or want to get to know about her.I also dont like how she plays a pivotal role in a lot of the scenes. Kinda bored of her, to the point that I feel skipping her scenes.

Not trying to hate, because I dont dislike her. I would not mind her being a friend of the MC.

While I don't agree with her being dull, and I do like her look, that's just my opinion. I will concede that she does look a little off in some parts of the game, But that's more of a DPC problem then Jill lol

If you don't have any interest that is a-ok with me, everyone's different.

Oh, and welcome to F95. Hope I haven't turned you off already bud.

There is this skill called "TL;DR". Learn it, it will help you cope with this thread tremendously.

I agree to an extent, but at the same time, I kinda like her for that. She's gonna do what she thinks is right, no matter what, I respect that. Not a lot of people are like that nowadays

Anyways, as I said to Travolta, no beef. Just got a little caught up in defending my girl, sorry man.

 

[CAznable]

No problem. It was all a misunderstanding.

We all have our opinions. Jill has a lot of fans as it is, so not me being a fan of hers is not the end of the world. I tend to give the underrated characters some love as well ; )

It would be a boring world if we agreed with everything lol.

Thanks! It takes a good deal of bullshit to turn me off lol.. You are fine.

So a Josy fan eh? I can respect that. While my dislike of Maya is very well documented on this forum (And I was formerly a fan of Maya) I've never really blamed Josy for that whole mess. I think she's a kind, fun girl and her bod is banging, she was just as confused as MC in that situation imo, hoping there'll be a solo Josy route later as DPC teased in last update.

[CAznable]

I like Josy and Maya as characters, but I dont want them to be in a throuple relationship with the MC, so I agree with a solo route here for Josy as well.

I prefer Josy over Maya if Im being honest, but Maya is a close second rn tied with Sage.

It would be nice for the DEV to have both Maya and Josy characters relationships being explored with others.

I actually like the idea of Josy and Jill maintaining a good friendship along the way. It would be wasted potential if the dev did not explore this route some more tbh.

Meanwhile I like to see how Maya and Bella bond.

Or even Josy and Sage etc.

Btw Maya needs to change her hairstyle. It is hideous and does not match her face or skin tone imo. The hairstyle she had at the pool with her hair up when she was interracting with Quin a couple episodes back was nice.

I like the Josy and Jill friendship too, FRIENDs only

Have you seen the new special beach renders? Maya had a slightly different haircut in that

There's many more than Maya in that series, not hard to find on here if you wish to do so.

 

[CAznable]

Yeah no lesbian relationship please.

I dont know. Her face looks weird to me in that pic lol. Too much make up I think and the expression is kinda creepy if Im honest.

She looks nice in one of her selfies.

Spoiler: Maya

Looking back, I think Maya has always looked a little off to me. there are some scenes from 0.2 where her skin looks.... Barely human. The dancing scene and up close movie night come to mind.

Some more from the beach renders

Sometimes she looks like a ghost with the white pale skin. The night scenes with the MC scared me ngl.

I got all of the collections now in the thread. I may pledge to the dev sometime in the future.

Jill looked good during the tennis scene, I must say.

Just testing out my new sig : P

Oh man, the tennis scene and the shower scene after it are some of my favourites. Sweaty girls man, what can I say.

Not gonna tell you where to spend your money or anything, but I’d definitely take a gander at some more great games on F95 before you think about patreon, I’d give you some recommendations but this isn’t the place for that.

So let me ask you the age old BADIK thread question, Who do you think is supplying Quinn with the drugs?

 

[ratttta]

Didn't expect to like josy as much as I did. I expected her to appear only in the beginning and to vanish as soon as she decided to leave and go far away. She's great. In the beginning I expected her to be my least favorite. Now, definitely top 3.

[Deleted member 1691628]

With that said, BID is one of the best games on this site.

Yeah, I rather liked this game (not played since an earlier version). Need to play the latest and see what has been added/changed.

 

[Deleted member 1691628]

I have some catching up to do then, just took a peak at my archives and I have not played since 0.4.1 (so EP4)

 

[Real Kreten]

The real Maya and Josy fans don't put up too much of a stink about it they know their story hasn't exactly been an easy ride by any means you'll get people like this squirming making it a bigger deal than it actually is.

One of the facts that makes these repetitive discussions completely unnecessary is that they are led by M&J defenders with players who are not interested in M&J.
M&J haters don't have any persuasive arguments, so they usually withdraw after they contribute with their commentary full of Their place in the quarrel is then taken over by others, and the never-ending quarrel goes to the next round.

But from another keg. I'm kind of wondering how many fans of Jill, Bella and Sage like them through their character flaws and how many are blind to these flaws so far. Some drama may reveal this to us in future, but there is no discussion about it here.

 

[Wizard_Shiryuu]

The recent episode felt pretty short compared to previous episodes, but the dev seems to be making up for it with the episode 6 being the longest in the series.

Im guessing episode 6 is going to be focusing on Quinn. Possibly tidbits on Bellas husband.

I dislike Tommy but I dont think hes going to be an antagonist.

This episode felt short because it mainly played out in a single location. If you're a DIK that first free roam is massive and can last for hours, but for a CHICK it can be significantly shorter.

Tommy... If he can't live out of Rusty's money anymore it looks like he will be more of an annoyance for the rest of the group who agree with the MC.

I wish I could add a like to this, but my rating quota is done for the day.

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

I'm not so sure. For all the time she's spent on screen, we don't really get much of a sense of who Cathy is. Given how reckless she has been in online dating, I can't rule out the possibility of her having a fling if the opportunity presented itself, even if it was with Jade's husband.

That said, if it did happen, it seems to have been a one time thing long enough ago that she doesn't think about it much.

Cathy seems to be into younger guys, not men who are around her age which is why I can't see her having done anything with Stephen in the past.

 

[Wizard_Shiryuu]

You must despise Bella then.

I am the least suspicious here of being a Bella fan, but what has she been dishonest about?
