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

[godkingxerxes]

Progress looking good, seems like it's gonna be a bangfest.

Hope it's not 7 times in 3 hours again, but 13 times in 10 days or something like that.

We need our Halloween season finale Pinkcakes.

You can't work that fast with Google Translate. I can't keep up with the thread sometimes.

I want Josy / Maya and MC to go to work and earn the money for Maya's classes as a three-way partnership. That would strengthen the bond between everyone because they would be there for one another.

Maybe MC is doing a self defense class for women. He has new kickboxing gloves.

Have you tried adding google translate as a browser extension? It roughly can translate anything in a page you are looking at, and might be a faster solution for you to try. That is what I did when I had to go through a ton of Russian pages in the past. I think English will work even better.

Yeah, pretty ridiculous, could have at least made it 8 times...

Hey did anyone managed to grab a copy of the new phone GUI with Cathy on it as the wallpaper? Everywhere I find the post the images are gone...

Being the one-track-mind that I am with this game, ya'll know what I'm going to say, so I'm going to say it anyway.

My MC's story with Jill and Tybalt's interference of it. I didn't punch him after the mansion, but any more crap with him I'm going to want to bury him in concrete.

Given you're a big Jill fan, not sure in your perusing of older post if you saw ep7 preview 4 of Jill. This is a

The look on her face, not to mention her attire, she looks like she's about to take the next step... commence holding both hands!...

everything that is functional for the drama must be accepted, these are the rules of the game.

but we can't talk about realism as a rule... I'd say we've long passed the stage of realism.

I'm sure Maya won't flip a hamburger to pay for her studies, I'd bet money on it.

felicemastronzo, my man.

I missed you. How are you ?

As I can see, and as always, you're still as relevant as ever.

To answer your question, it will be all about money. To whom will the MC give the miserable 5000 dollars he got from his mother? That's the question.

Awesome name and avatar mate!

I personally think, if he was in the M&J route, it's going to Maya for tuition.

Me being biased, maybe something for Jill? Something that she would really care about, even though she doesn't really like personal wealth or possessions? Naturally, me being so locked on Jill, maybe a ring?

Maya seems like the best route here if that route was chosen, but maybe it could work as well if Maya was still a friend?

Youventus, is that you?

What happened to you? Where you been? You don't do that.


The impression is that the 5000$ is a very small amount, he can buy a couple of doses from Quinn if things go really bad... surely that check was put in Mc's hands to do something with it, but I don't think it's enough to solve Maya's problem...


"as relevant as ever" I don't know if that's a compliment...

I hope thats not the case. If it goes to Maya, I really want DPC to have them use the money as a base to multiply it. Use it to start something that makes them money. Give Maya some character development to help her stand on her own. Use the money to teach her a lesson about being an adult. (Only downside is that DPC is already basically doing that with the DIKs, so it might become samey samey storywise.)

Check it out now, I must have saved the post before the file finished uploading.

Of course, it is !

Sorry for my long absence. I was working on french translation of Being a DIK, and I started with some french friend I meet in this thread a new team to create our own games.

My opinion is that the amount of 5000$ is and will remain as, by chance, the exact amount that will unlock the situation for each of the narrative arcs. The MC will then have to choose. This is the great drama at the end of the game.

Yeah, I'd be careful with that. I think Jill would be more turned off than anything if you either gave her the 5K or bought her something materialistic. Just take her out for another nice date, nothing fancy or expensive. She'll dig that. As for me, I made up my mind a long time ago, I'm giving 100% to Maya (simping ain't easy). If Neil wants more money then he can put in a few extra shifts and Quinn is getting shanked to death no matter what so I'm not giving her a damn thing. The DIKs need to continue to learn about money management, so they're not getting jack shit either.

It looks like it's going to come down a decision between Maya or Quinn.

But that would mean they need the money, and if they don't get money there would be real consequences to the decision.

Money is going to Quinn regardless. Bye Bye Maya.

and you've come back to put all this anxiety into me?!?!

Well, I'm glad anyway. We'll see

Maya is already enrolled in college. Surely she doesn't actually need tuition money, like, right now! She'd be paid up for the first semester at least.

But this 5K is actually 5K real cash. In the last Q&A DPC discussed that there were 3 economies. Pocket money, mansion money and real money. So the 5K is going to be used for something outside the usual game mechanics, and unfortunately Maya's tuition falls into that category...
