You can keep your spreadsheets, I'm looking forward to updating my render and animations counts to see who gets the most int this episode what the overall changes are to the totals.I can feel the excitement in the air!
DPC is clearly trying to get the update ready for 11/6/20, and assuming everything goes smoothly I expect he will succeed. Let's hope, anyway.
No completion numbers for this week, but instead we got the final render counts for the episode. Armed with those numbers, we can finally fill in the gap in my math from back on October 2. Which means...
So we just just need to keep the world together for 2-3 more weeks - plus a few days to finish multiple playthroughs, of course. This is going to be tight, but I'm cautiously optimistic.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
If you're asking if any spoilers will leak from the beta testers, then no, that won't happen.Beta spoilers leak here or not?
Hey you addressed this to the DIKs only. What about those of us on the CHIK route? No love for us? Harumph! I feel cast aside now like Jade's panties.![]()
Beta testing will start before the end of October.
The release date will be sometime in the first half of November.
I'm not setting a final release date yet, because if testing fares good, it's going to get released earlier.
It's time to start preparing for the release, even for you.
The best way you can do this is by having a clean install of your game ready and then download the new patch upon release.
That will help a lot to reduce the stress on the servers.
If you need a fresh version of the game, you canYou must be registered to see the links.
If you want to download the entire full version on the release date, that's fine too. But be advised, servers will likely be slower due to the high demand and the full version is ~11GB.
The patch on the other hand is ~3.0 GB.
For uploading, I will be using multiple hosts as always, to give you alternate mirrors to download from.
I promised you a changelog for this week's status update and here it is.
It's subject to marginal change due to testing and in case of any additional/scrapped content.
-- Changelog v0.6.0 --
- Added Episode 6 that includes
- 3334 renders
- 162 animations
- 34 songs
- 25 sound effects
- Added a fast travel system for free roam events. It can be turned off in Preferences and is only active for a subset of free roam events starting episode 6.
- Updated code for affinity and DIK status calculations.
- Added an optional text box mode with an opacity slider to the preferences menu. Text legibility is improved by enabling this mode, but you will get centered text and a low opacity black text box when playing the game.
- Removed the option Rollback side from preferences, due to redundancy.
- Fixed bad variable names, episode 1-5, overriding a python library.
- Your affinity will now be displayed in conjunction with major choices.
- Fixed a bug with the number of scenes displayed in the Stats app that could be unlocked in episode 5.
- Fixed a misalignment issue of the gallery for an Episode 5 mixed special render.
- Revamped the episode title and ending overlays for episodes 1-6.
- Made cosmetic changes to the episode stat report for episodes 1-6.
- Revamped the Reward app.
- Revamped the Scenes app.
- When unlocking a special render, the character you unlocked a render for will have an exclamation mark in the Rewards app.
- Fixed a bug where writing on Maya in episode 5 would register almost any word as being cute.
- Fixed a faulty button placement of Maya #4 special render in episode 5.
- Corrected typos
I estimate the playtime for the update to be somewhere between 4-6 hours for one proper playthrough.
Soon, DIKs.

You know the game is called Being a DIK right? the fraternity is called DIK and the ones who join are also called DIKs right?Hey you addressed this to the DIKs only. What about those of us on the CHIK route? No love for us? Harumph! I feel cast aside now like Jade's panties.![]()
Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to your results! I just want to be ready for the long march to Episode 7, assuming we somehow survive 2020.You can keep your spreadsheets, I'm looking forward to updating my render and animations counts to see who gets the most int this episode what the overall changes are to the totals.![]()
I think it might be more accurate to say neither has ever fought effectively for the relationship. Maya's whole odyssey to get free tuition started as a way to protect the relationship from her father. She clearly put herself through things she would never have done ordinarily as part of that.it does not seem to me that they have ever fought for this relationship:
with Maya's father they surrendered, and now they are hanging on a free tuition that seems to be a mirage,
in their long-distance relationship they have given up due to various misunderstandings that we we do not know,
at the first temptation they both surrendered, Maya even changed sexual orientation for the occasion,
when they found each other they surrendered again waiting for MC to clarify their past behavior.
no one is always fighting, and some of these battles they couldn't win, but they didn't fight any.
they are still together for a series of coincidences.
the fact that MC was the lover of both saved their relationship.
MC's outburst of anger, however excessive and misdirected, is a sign of love, of passion, which they lack
the whole human condition is linked to an intrinsic weakness, but fortunately not all relationships are as fragile as that of Maya and Josy
Might reeavluate them before ep 7, though. I didn't exclude the free-roam renders and I think I should just keep it to the main game renders. Won't change character totals, but will give a better idea of the percentage of renders each LI has.Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to your results! I just want to be ready for the long march to Episode 7, assuming we somehow survive 2020.
That is quite a lot of play time for one update.![]()

She's a teenager.it does not seem to me that they have ever fought for this relationship:
Love will keep her warm when she's stuck sleeping on park benches.She's a teenager.
Dad: You stop this relationship or you're out on your ass and I won't pay for college.
I mean what is she supposed to do? Be homeless?
You could also call Josy and Maya if you chose the Triangular relationship, it’ll just lead to the same scene with same dialogueI consider myself a thorough player, but I can't believe I missed out the option to call Sage during the party, after Cathy's cluck is leaked. What a pleasant surprise, to stumble into something new after playing this game many times...
i also wrote this:She's a teenager.

the scenario you describe is not fighting, but asking and accepting to submit to a threat, there is quite the opposite of fighting.no one is always fighting, and some of these battles they couldn't win, but they didn't fight any.
Maya's personality shown so far makes me doubt that she has clashed so hard with her father. her father imposed an ultimatum on her and she accepted it hoping for providence.Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to your results! I just want to be ready for the long march to Episode 7, assuming we somehow survive 2020.
I think it might be more accurate to say neither has ever fought effectively for the relationship. Maya's whole odyssey to get free tuition started as a way to protect the relationship from her father. She clearly put herself through things she would never have done ordinarily as part of that.
Is this a smart way to go about it? I would say no, even given porn-game logic. But it does convince me that Maya was willing to metaphorically bleed for the relationship, at least at first. We don't know if Josy did anything similar. The revelation that she knew full well the MC had a crush on her when she went on that first date doesn't speak well to her motivation, but it's possible she was near her limit by then.
In any case, I do agree their relationship is extremely fragile. It took the MC to get them to really address what had happened to them, and even then they are STILL keeping secrets if the MC goes the friendship route.
Personally, I'm hoping this is simply a mechanism to make it possible for the MC to date them individually without having to break them up himself. If he encourages them to work through their problems and start working together (with or without him in the mix), they can patch things up and learn to trust each other properly. If he keeps his distance, their relationship will eventually collapse and he'll be left to help each girl pick up the pieces (again, with or without him in the mix).
Hopefully we'll be a big step to seeing how this will unfold soon. <knock on wood>
