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

[fakitap]

I don't know anything about it, but apparently some formulations of the pill contain nandrolone, which is similar to testosterone and is a banned substance. So not completely made up I guess?

Ah I see, that would be a pretty good reason. Hadn't found anything about that but that would definitely be a good enough reason for DPC to add that to the game. Thanks for the info!

in my head the triple foot job was the dish, and the sex after a gift .... like the one after the gender lesson

If I recall correctly the triple-footjob even ends with Sarah saying something like "this is not what you paid for. you only paid for the special" and then asks you to meet her in Dereks future bedroom.

The thing is Melanie's theory has no evidence. I've been asking for some for a while now. She has some reaction when the thing is mentioned and the camera pans towards her, right. Sure, she nows something. But any actual data?

Oh I'm not sure the Mel theory is entirely true either. I did think so until I was reminded Chads call had already started while Mel was still mid-workout, so her being the one he is sleeping with seems unlikely. I generally feel like we are missing something to connect the dots in that regard.
Chad being gay seems wrong because there would have been too many things pointing at it being a girl early on and there seems to be no reason for Chad to pull off a Xanathos-Gambit like "Imma plant evidence and have fake phone-calls to make Sage think I'm cheating on her with a girl, when I'm actually cheating on her with a guy.".
Mel being the girl he is cheating with doesn't work since she is clearly not in a situation to have a private call when Chad is talking on the phone.
Mel and Sarah blackmailing Chad seems unlikely because it is somehow only affecting Mel and she even goes out of her way and asks Sarah "are you gonna back me up?" as if she thinks she is the only guilty party and Sarah is merely someone that knows what's up.

Ultimately I feel like bits and pieces of all of these theories might be relevant (Chad suddenly being happier, him gifting the partner perfumed panties and Mel clearly knowing more) but what they eventually combine into is probably something we have no way of getting yet, because there is something missing to tie them all together in a way that leaves no contradictions. Maybe next episode we get something like "actually Troy is a drag queen and has pretty girly hips, so he likes wearing panties" or "actually Mel has a twin that was in the Gym while she was calling Chad" or "there was this other girl Chad was always into and she is a friend of Mels AND happens to be in the eastern wing of the dorms" or whatever (obviously not all of these are meant seriously) and it'll all instantly click into place.

It's actually the opposite, the foot starter is a gift behind Quinn's back

I got carried away by the fact that a triple foot job is much more a special dish than a quickie in a closet

But Quinn thinks the other dishes you enjoyed so far were just glory hole blowjobs, so actual sex is a special on her menu.

To cleanse the palate after reading three pages of Chad theories:

 

[list101]

Lots of speculations about Bella being psycho - I don't buy it ...
yet I have the uneasy feeling that Vinny is still active behind the scene and he is salty - the damage he may be responsible so far:
1. Posting Cathy's photo - he knows the place - could of sneak in during the party
2. Attacking Quinn - she mentioned him being in the loop
3. Trashing the place then deflecting the blame to the 3-alphas - his brother Nick room wasn't trashed

And imho he is the one to cause some serious shit in the future - Quinn and Riona are in real danger.
How innocent or endangered is Nick in all that remains to be seen.
Knowing AL - some tragedy is about to happen.

 

[Elum Eno]

That scene is one of three, including Derek and Sage. Are they gonna kill somebody as well?

I'm just saying the Bella hype, lock door hype, while DPC has played in to it, it's all fan hype, and if it turns out to be nothing, it's not DPC's fault for teasing a bit, it's the fault of fans for trying to make something out of nothing.

It's not just fan hype but hints that DPC's has placed into the game that something wicked this way comes.

Derek and Sage has nothing to do with that scene.

The scenes that was from are...
Maya opening the door to Josy, which was something bad.
Quinn opening the door to Dawe to which he was there to tell her the Tri-A's would not be doing any business with her any more.
Bella opening the locked door, which is DPC's way of implying something bad is there too.


But you are right about one thing... after playing AL a lot of us just might be over hyping and expecting the worse.

So, I had a great theory about the Chad situation and the whole war coming in the HOTs... (I look up and see Sages hot body because of Kellermann)

My brain:

Well, who cares about Chad now anyways, the only thing we should be thinking is the fact that the relationship with Sage is finally ready to advance further, and hopefully, deeper and with a better grade than 3 out of 5

Chad being gay seems wrong because there would have been too many things pointing at it being a girl early on and there seems to be no reason for Chad to pull off a Xanathos-Gambit like "Imma plant evidence and have fake phone-calls to make Sage think I'm cheating on her with a girl, when I'm actually cheating on her with a guy.".

Sorry to un-derail the Chad conspiracy...

That's an interesting point. Possibly far fetched, but perhaps some of this "evidence" wasn't meant for Sage, it was meant for the Jocks. Perhaps Chad is pretending to be on a call with Sage (the Jocks think he is) to keep up the charade of being in a hetero relationship with Sage. It backfired though, because Sage saw it as something else. That's why he looked so shocked when Sage called him out for cheating during their breakup, because he really wasn't cheating with anyone. He obviously wasn't happy with Sage, he just used her to disguise his homosexuality. All that said, it did seem like he really was interacting with someone on the other end of the call, even pausing because he heard something and then telling them it was no one.

But some serious questions about Chad (my own answers are in red):

• Why was he with Sage for three years when he didn't even look interested in being with her way back before the DIKs were formed? Because Chad is gay.
• Sage complains that he needs to start getting more physical with her. Why has he never been physical with her from the get go but he's all about putting fingers in someone else on the call? Because he is gay.
• Why did Troy leave the Jocks? Because he is gay.
• How was Mel talking to Chad when she was on the treadmill in earshot of others? She wasn't, it's a ruse that Chad puts on to convince other's he's not gay (I'm thinking this is far fetched, but if you're gonna go with a conspiracy theory, why not go all in).
• Why would Chad be adamant that he is not cheating on Sage when she's accusing him of cheating during their breakup? They are breaking up, what is she gonna do if he admits to cheating, break up with him? He wasn't cheating. He probably wants to be with someone else but isn't actually cheating.
• Why is the story so specific about Chad being in the eastern wing after letting you know that was the wing you were staying in. Apart from specific locations like, "Dik's mansion", "HOTs house", "Prep's mansion", "Pink Rose", "Library", there aren't a lot of specific locations, but the eastern wing is specified. Is it a clue or just useless information? Because Chad and Troy are together.
• Where is Troy sneaking out to at night? To see Chad. Could totally be drug related too.
• Why does Troy want you out of the dorm so badly. Because he is gay.
• Why do the Jocks comment that they've never seen Chad seem so happy? They literally say, " I saw him yesterday, he seemed happy. It was weird. Never saw him as a positive guy". So Chad never seemed happy/positive around them, like ever? Why was that, and why is he happy now? Because he is gay and he doesn't have to pretend that he is straight when around them all the time anymore.
• What was the blackmail and why was it so bad that it brought Chad to tears in front of the MC? Something gay.
• As per Sage's complaints, why does Chad pay attention to Sage when others are around but not when they are alone? Because he's trying to convince people he isn't gay.
• Why does Chad have perfumed, lady's undergarments on his person? I'd say "Because he is gay", but that just comes across ignorant...
• We have a lesbian couple, where is the gay couple to balance it out? Chad and Troy, solved.

Now sure, 100% all of this is circumstantial and a lot of it is stretching things, but seriously, there's a lot. Definitely a lot more there pointing to the gay conspiracy than there is pointing towards any other scenario.

And the Mel theory? Seriously, who would break up with someone as hot, beautiful and now we find out rather intelligent (not to mention she's the president of the HOTs), like I was saying, who would break up with this heavenly creature to go with Mel. Mel is an easy lay, she surely sleeps around (remember Sage only started it as revenge for Chad, plus the mc is totally irresistible, just ask every other girl in the game, even lesbians can't resist him - OK he's struggling with the geekosphere a bit), and Mel doesn't even seem all that interesting...

No, Chad is gay!

I wonder if there will be a branch where the mc is bi...

with this criterion there is just as much evidence that Bella is a serial killer.

then, for me it will be a useless twist, so it's not a problem that it happens

What's the evidence supporting the Bella killer theory?

• Locked room.
• Scary eyebrows.
• Hot and cold relationship with mc.
• More scary eyebrows.

Anything else?

Gay people in the closet is unfortunately even in this day and age not all that uncommon, but serial killers, definitely more of a stretch. No I just think she has some trauma in her past.

 

[Gladheim]

As in the end Chad is not gay I'm going to laugh a lot haha

As long as the low quality control doesn't lead to a seafood buffet!

And I'll have quite a few words to eat!

it is not known what happened to her husband - because she killed him

premonition in the third chapter - because she is a crazy serial killer

we are purposely shown an ax in the garage - because it is the weapon she uses

psychotic breakdown in chapter six - because she's a crazy serial killer

she does not feel the risk of sleeping at the DIKs - because she is a crazy serial killer

she has pancakes for lunch - because she's a crazy serial killer



are less than evidence for gay Chad?

I repeat that I absolutely do not believe that Bella is a serial killer, but the criterion of the clues is this ...

I wonder if the trauma has to do with her dead parents. I don't recall Bella saying how they died.

5000 pages what the fu-

how is this game? render wise and approx how many hours of playing to finish it from start to latest update?

(add 2-3 hours to total to include time for extra activities)

Yeah, incredibly popular on here. Why?
- I'd say the 3d art is consistently well above average. The females, which is what most people look for, actually come in bodyshapes that are mostly within the realm of realism (except for one, but not egregiously so). The male characters have all been paid attention to, as well as all the scenery and backgrounds.
- The story, while obviously a fiction based on fantasy, isn't so wild that you cannot suspend your disbelief. Dialogues and characters are well written, characters have personalities, feelings, and usually their own motivations. The game invites you to invest emotionally
- Combination of the above two increases the realism and immersion of the game, which makes the fantasy it presents more tangible. As opposed to the vast majority of games on here, which like to present a thin framework for a fetishised porn fantasy, this is one of the fewer games that tries to get the player to invest and get their minds and emotions involved. And that, to me, is the crucial difference between playing an erotic game and just going to get some porn.

The game also features a fairly large number of logic puzzles, memory games, secrets to be found, some quick time event based minigames, etc. They are, in general, wholly optional. I enjoy them (though I have beef with the English test ones) but you can deal with some of them by the cheat mechanisms provided, following the walkthrough, actually cheating through the console, or just turning them off entirely.

As for total playtime, kind of hard to gauge truly. Even though this is pretty close to a harem game, it isn't completely and there's several branches besides the main linear story that you cannot see all in oneplaythrough. Besides that your time spent could vary greatly on whether you play the minigames and whether you use a walkthrough or not. I'd say you could easily spend a week of multiple hours a day on it if you want to see everything.

Except I could answer each and every one of those statements with another reasonable, rational answer. There are not always rational answers to the Chad questions. Being gay is not far fetched, being a serial killer is.

Look to theorize and argue things like that, can I say that it could be, after all, who the hell believed that Leah was a murderous psycho whore? Nobody, she seemed like a normal girl, something obsessive but nothing more. I doubt that Bella is that, but she might have something different behind all that pretty facade/face.
