I think mods should make a disclaimer on the top, saying "This game is called Being a DIK, not Being a Dick, and that's not misspelling" . All sorts of confusion could be sorted out.
Neutral to DIKish, I'd say. That's how I interpret that "nice but daring". I think a regular CHICK would be too bland for her.-You get RP with Josy in cause of 90% CHICK and 10% DICK choices.
-Josy likes Maya, who is a clear CHICK.
-Josy doesn't like Tommy and she thinks DIKs are like Tommy. When MC has DICK affinity, she tells him that he fits in with DIKs.
-In the label at the end of Ep.1, It says she likes nice but daring.
How, in light of this please, can Josy be DICK affinity LI?
My note 90/10 is based on the statistics after Ep.4, which someone mentioned here. Ep.1-Ep.3 was an interaction with Josy independently of Maya and thus the answer to 0. In Ep.4, we avoided her.Many of those choices relate not to Josy but the combined Josy + Maya relationship.
Why should she please want different behavior from male LI than from female LI?Gasp, could it possibly be that Josy's taste in women differs from her taste in men?
We do not know her opinion of Derek and she does not have Derek associated with DIKs at the time of her commentary. DIKs are Tommy for her at that moment, not Rusty or Jacob.Josy would also say that about Derek and she seems to like him. Could it be that she can distinguish between different degrees of Dik-like behaviour, almost like a person?
No, as a neutral affinity MC.Nice but daring, sort of like an MC with a slight Dik Affinity, or where I placed her on the Affinity scale?
Oh dude I don't know about video game writing but IRL I had few mates who were DIK definition and were going out with calm cute girls.I mean I think it's totally realistic for a guy who's a little rough around the edges to still end up with a nice girl like Jill or Josy - they can be rough around the edges, but still be really caring and affectionate with their girl.
I'm all for that except the part where massive DIK MC loses out on Sage. So far every decision with her that involved status or affinity checks have been "DIK or even more DIK", she better not suddenly reject the MC for continuing on that path unless she starts getting "softer" as the episodes go by and her reactions consistently reflect that she doesn't appreciate "too much DIK".Right but Dik route doesn't automatically mean all Dik choices, just more Dik than Chick. Assume every girl has her own Affinity and to end up in a relationship with her at the end of the game you need to roughly match that (with a high RP score letting you match to someone if your Affinities are misalligned, up to a point)

The small circles are to easily identify what I suspect might be the perfect position, there would be greater leeway than I've indicated and, in any case, a high RP would extend that range.I'm all for that except the part where massive DIK MC loses out on Sage.

Also, maybe let's widen those zones a bit in general, seems pretty restrictive in this state, especially with no one being available for a true neutral.![]()
the discussion of affinities is always relative, it does not mean being hard and pure in one direction, am that good or bad you take that direction.Everyone react, with neutral affinity, and status pretty well. I think what is telling is the little bonus scene with Jill which is need to have chick affinity, and for a bonus scene with quinn you have to have dick affinity.
I think Jill will be pretty much the chick choice. but I actually would not mind if these characters are actually adapting to the MC , like Maya, I mean you can't be to much of a chick with her for one of her lewd scene, that is telling.
but we still don't know enough about the whole system, and we know some changes will happens, and we are still in early in the game, I know it's always a surprise. everyone plans their end game already, and who know may be Jill and Sage will leave the game, next year or something.
I personally would not mind something like that. I would totally not mind if Sage is just a fuck buddy, and we never move past that , despite we may want it.
it's rare that you end up with your first love for the rest of your life, or even end up with the girl that you dated in college.
Personally, I think this is how the affinity of each girl differentiates:Right but Dik route doesn't automatically mean all Dik choices, just more Dik than Chick.

My Inner Arieth: I like dicks. I have a folder full of my favorite dicks on my phoneWith all this talk of chicks and dicks, who's chick and who's a dick around here? I myself have been converted by the HOTS to the dik experience and haven't looked back (maybe like once for Jill)
Tbh I don't even view Jacob as someone with "DIK affinity". He has constantly been the voice of reason for the whole fraternity and he's been nothing but nice to the MC from day 1. But if you meant "Jacob-esque DIK" as in someone part of the frat that is closer to him than Tommy in personality then definitely agree on that.The small circles are to easily identify what I suspect might be the perfect position, there would be greater leeway than I've indicated and, in any case, a high RP would extend that range.
I placed Sage where I did because as she catches feelings I believe she'll favour a Jacob-esque Dik rather than a Tommy which is what the Massive Dik version of the MC would be
For Arieth I expected just an "Arieth" in the groupPersonally, I think this is how the affinity of each girl differentiates:

Well that would explain why I stick with the CHICK route. Now with the girls in the massive DIK route, an AL event wouldn't bother me a bit. Personally I think Lily would be more DIK than Neutral or CHICK.Personally, I think this is how the affinity of each girl differentiates:

If you have Neutral or CHICK affinity and didn't finger her ass in ep 3, she won't take money off the MC for a blowjob, so it seems like she might like nice guys.Well that would explain why I stick with the CHICK route.

I'd put Envy in the group with Sage, Riona and everyone else, you need to be a HUGE DIK to fuck her in the Pink RosePersonally, I think this is how the affinity of each girl differentiates:

I'm pretty much all in on the DIK side in terms of just the basic choices like checking out girls, etc - usually hovering somewhere in the HUGE DIK to MASSIVE DIK scale - going into Episode 5 I was maxed out on the DIK scale, but by the end of it, I had somehow wandered back in HUGE DIK. On the major AFFINITY choices I'm floating between NEUTRAL and DIK. I'll be curious to see how my choices affect my options with the LIs later in the game.With all this talk of chicks and dicks, who's chick and who's a dick around here?

Fantastic chart. Only thing I'd probably tweak is putting Heather in the MASSIVE DIK range...after all she's Tommy's girlfriend, the "reigning Massive Dik", lol.Personally, I think this is how the affinity of each girl differentiates:

Probably right, so I've revised it.Fantastic chart. Only thing I'd probably tweak is putting Heather in the MASSIVE DIK range...after all she's Tommy's girlfriend, the "reigning Massive Dik", lol.

That could be the same environment, hence MC, possibly, will be cock blocked by Tommy. Then he will invite MC to that bar, where they will meet Envy.
