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

[felicemastronzo]

Maya and Josy went around of their tasks, which is basically unacceptable for me. Imagine MC saying "how about we pour these beers into the sink, how about we think a creative angle to fake public sex etc. suggesting cheating their tasks. How would wearing that jacket feel? Empty, hollow right? She cheats around the tasks and than has the audacity to get mad after learning there is no such thing as free tuition. And there are people thinking she's brave now if she actually had an ounce of courage, she would just say "I can't do some of these tasks because I'm a lesbian" and get on with it. But now she's brave huh

Maya was just a plaything for Quinn as you said. I mean, she took a mugging quite well actually, a silly slap from an agitated girl won't do anything to her. BUT, is Maya ready for what's coming to her? Quinn could want to take revenge in her own way and considering sometimes a mere joke can be too much for Maya, she'd be in trouble. Just saying

only in case they are not in the trouple, otherwise the not wanting to leave anything in Quinn's hands seems legitimate to me.

From a strictly sporting point of view, Derek and MC also cheat or at least they can.
it seems to me that Bella can drink a few beers, Mc pays Magnar for the underwear, the slap he gets from Mona is arranged.. etc.
but Derek and Mc are "only" competing for admission, not a lot of money.

However, the point remains: if they did practically all the difficult tests by cheating, technically they don't deserve the prize they are denied.

Quinn was either convinced that Maya was going to fail (from chatting with Riona I'd say not) or she already knew that moment would come, probably the slap surprised her too

Pressure literally means to apply force, so yes, Quinn pressuring Mona and anyone else is forcing.

you are right of course! i meant it was not illegal to put legitimate force on someone! and yes i know Quinn peddles drugs and that is a crime, my argumentation is that it is not immoral as long as she does not lie to get people hooked! weirdly if the drugs she used where legal and she lied to get people to use them it would be legal and immoral...

pay attention to legitimate force since blackmail is not legit! also blackmailing is illegal but reaching an agreement with people over whom you have leverage is not and yet such agreements tend to be far more immoral!

My morality is based on the Kantian moral imperatives, which actually turns Quinn in an immoral person, go figure!

In my opinion Maya's slap to Quinn is very overrated. Surely Quinn deserves it but it's a useless outburst that surely doesn't make up for all the humiliations Maya suffered until that moment.
It's useless, because at the end of the scavenger hunt, Quinn has already lost the power she had over Maya.
Absurdly, in case Maya wasn't in the trouple, it's also the outburst for not receiving an award that she didn't really deserve...

For weeks Maya was Quinn's plaything, she was never able to stand up to her (like both lily and josy did), she immediately made it clear how desperate she was, increasing quinn's power over her. now with that slap they're even? i don't think so, in fact this way she also gives up the room in the HOTs dorm that would have been good for her in retrospect.

it certainly closes one phase of Maya's history at BR (hopefully the most pitiful one), but I find it hard to consider it a victory




but does she have this same reaction whether in a trouple or not?

Maya's outburst was useless, yes, but I feel like you're looking at this too mechanically. It was an emotional outburst after dealing with Quinn's bullshit for 3 weeks. There's nothing more or less to it. Its just a moment of letting all that pent up anger loose. There's no win or getting even. Thats not the point of the slap. Quinn still won, in the end.

And that is part of what further drives home Maya's feeling of helplessness. She was banking on this. Made a fool of herself. And it came to naught.

5400+ comments pages.....suppose 10k isn't far now

And a good majority of those pages are comments composing of either 'when's next release' or 'save file please'

I fully agree with you

It just seemed to me that it was seen with too much positivity, as a sign of redemption. And it is not.

It's like the employee who insults his boss on the last day of work. An outburst, that's all.

 

[Anthony11553]

Maya's dramatic ass always got me laughing even when i know i shouldn't

Ah. Yeah, thats true. Thats exactly what its like.

In the first episode right after you meet Maya and she gives you the tour of the frats and etc she won't shut up about the HOTs paying tuition right and its like she keeps telling the MC that she needs that money. MC tells her that there's no problem with taking a student loan and she's like, no you don't understand. I need that money.
Its like shit bruh everyone needs money. I had a can of chef boyardee last night for dinner

 

[Deleted member 2528490]

Nothing wrong with Chef Boyardee. I've got cans of Campbell's in my pantry. I love that shit.

Maya wasn’t Quinn's rival, and Quinn wasn’t Maya's rival.
Maya's fighting a war with her father and Quinn's fighting a war with her past and finance.
Both suffer mayor defeat that evening.

It is also important for question of Maya's courage. Dignity and petty skirmishes with Quinn never was important for her, when she fight for right to live her life way she want.

Maya is coward on a small think, but she never yielded to her father, not with her sexual orientation, not with her believe on social principles. Maya is courageous on big think.

I'd compare Maya to a woman living in a Nazi-occupied town during World War II. She crawls in front of the Nazis every day. But then she goes and delivers supplies to the partisans.

A proper last day at work victory is when DPC quit his day job at 2.5K patrons and is now at 10k patrons.
What DPC did on his last day finally revealed...

My "main" run is DIK choices, with some CHICKery peppered in. But I also like being a bro to Derek, so that always takes priority over DIK/CHICK. If he wants a hug, he gets a hug. If I have to call Sarah/Melanie bitches to stick up for Maya with him, thats whats happening.

D-Boy and Ass man. The two best maggots that the DIKs have ever seen.

Hell yeah. And they really are. Banging teachers/grannies/fat feminists/the whole prep party/etc and etc. Already legends only three weeks in to college.

It's crazy to think it's only been 3 in game weeks. I remember DPC saying that he's going to pick up the pace, and I hope we get to see some slutty costumes at Halloween. I'll definitely increase my pledge to vote in those polls. My dad's a 30 dollar patron lol
But can we talk about the swagger of Magnar for a moment, look at him strutting with that red bow tie

I do not agree. Maya is rather a woman who prays for the Nazis to leave or for someone to chase them away.

She does very little, if she had defended her love for Josy to her father for real, the whole ultimatum issue wouldn't have even arisen. Instead, she arrives at the BR under her father's conditions and with her relationship with Josy reduced to the bare minimum.

She needs money and what she does to get it is to hope that they will give it to her after overcoming, not by her own efforts, a series of tasks that she would not have faced alone.

the only thing she really does is ask for help

which is why I hope she takes her chance by confronting her father.
