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

[proximus]

The thing going on with Bella and Jill is a definition of blue balling, and i hate the predictable development pattern. There's no story or engaging setup with any other girl in the game. Lots of worthless sexual content with generic barbiedolls doesn't turn me on. Too many BS charachters, so the development takes forever. And that Damon Lindelof(Lost) deep storytelling doesn't help either. Too much.

Yet game generated over 5500 pages of discussion and over 100 thousand posts. That tells me that dev is doing something right and that people are buying it. For me, this is a fun porn game and coming from amateur developer, it is quite good.
There are quite few games that deserve milking tag ahead of this one. See it more like a popular pop song that people like listening rather than something from a classic composer.

There are handful games on this site that really excel with story telling, but amount of sexual content is minimal or non existent. As a matter of fact, I even hope that dev doesn't rush it.
In my opinion, one of them is Light Of my Life (models might not be everyone's cup of tea).
Second one is Summer's Gone which has no sexual content so far.
Some of the games with decent story and sexual content would be City of Broken Dreamers, Deliverance and Defending Lydia Collier.

Again, this is just personal opinion and people might find those games boring as well.

This one has quality of presentation, but the gameplay mechanics and story have taken a progressive turn for the worse. People are still enthusiastic because of the strong start, not realizing how the game is creeping away into narm territory.

Corpse corresponds to the psycho murderer theory. Is there some logic behind this?

In particular, if we ignore an axe in her garage that can hardly be considered to be evidence.

It was an ongoing joke that sprouted from Bella having facial expressions like a serial killer in certain shots. I have no clue how it became an actual theory however.

Because people think this is going to have exactly the same story elements as AL just in different ways.

I really hope that criticism doesn't make him rush the ending like with Acting Lessons. It might be hard for DPC to keep this level of quality and consistency. Game did drop a bit off with last 2 updates (especially the last one).

That's why he no longer visits this site and kicks anyone off his Patreon, Discord, and Steam forum if they say something he doesn't like; to avoid seeing, hearing, or knowing of any criticism.

like hearing to criticism works... if you listen to the nay Sayers you´ll be doing other peoples mistakes!
if you must fail make your own mistakes, you might learn something along the way!

some constructive criticism works but being able to discern the best from haters is hard and sometimes impossible, its like todays society, up until the 80`s the hard part was getting information, but nowadays the hard part is filter the excess information!

As for DPC i believe he is germane and married a Swedish feminist, makes you wonder why he went into AVN...

as for Bella i`m keeping my current theory she keeps her waifu husbad dick less mannequin locked in the nursery! that is why she is so afraid people might find out and judge her a weirdo! She did not had sex with it, it was in the living room so she could move him into the couch and cuddle with him while watching tv!

Lots of developers get sick of the criticism, and while some of it is meant to be constructive there are a lot of trolls or people obsessed with a particular fetish or character that make enough noise it can wear down their nerves. I don't suspect DPC will rush the ending, but since he has such a large plot with lots of branches I suspect the forced separation of paths will become more apparent and the feeling of not having the choices players want will come up more.

I agree with Warscarred on the noise vs constructive criticism (not sure about the mannequin husband, but I like that it's a theory I hadn't heard before).

He bans constructive criticism too.

there is no such thing as constructive criticism. just peoples who don't know how do do it, want to tell people how they should do it, so it would fit better for their own liking. .

I have a question for the forist: ¿Did someone knows of a adult game like this more succesfull than Badik?

 

[Holy Bacchus]

Well, if you're talking in terms of Patreon subscribers and money earned, that crown probably goes to Summertime Saga.

And if you haven't played it yet you definitely should

Dude I respect you but every time you mention Maya being feminist makes me think you've got the wrong idea of what feminism is

I played Summertime, it was the first adult game i tried and its great.

 

[ename144]

that remains a very confusing explanation

the more I try to figure it out, the more lost I get....

the father signs for a student loan, he can only do it as a guarantor, at that point all the risk is on him. when the payments come due he either gives the money to the BR or to the bank (or at least the bank could ask for it since it is a student loan).

Maya would have to wait less than a year (the first semester she could probably still attend) and then report her father to the bank (or the government)

but let's say it's fiction and it's not that important (then DPC would do without talking about it all the time...)

If we want to make sense of Maya's financial situation, I think we need to look past the money-babble used to describe it and think in terms of potential restrictions.

The most plausible explanation I can come up with is that her father arranged a very unusual loan for her, and it allows him to call the loan due ahead of time. Thus if Maya fails to honor the ultimatum, he can demand she pay up. Since the money has already been given to B&R and Maya was never allowed to build up her own savings, she'd have no way to pay and thus would be financially crippled for the rest of her life.

It's pretty dubious, but probably the best we're likely to get until we finally learn the details (and possibly even afterwards!).

This is what surprised me. On the dik route told Jill MC is no good for her. And in episode 5 with the Yoga scene I was wondering how different the dialogue would be when Bella asks how the date went and I thought Jill would dismiss it or whatever but there was this hint that she wants to give him another shot

There's a slim opening for more, but mostly she says she likes the MC as a friend. Given that she won't offer to hold his hand or kiss him during the night, I think the Jill romance on that branch is about as close to dead as it can get.

Yes, that's different from dik route, I mean if you tel her you are not good for her, you basically rejected her, but if you tell her you are a nice guy, regardless of your "Dik route", you still can make her to like you.
technical, regardless our path or affinity, we can actually reject the main girls. We can reject Sage , to not be her fuck buddy, We can say no Jill ( - or choose to not kiss her, hold her hand make out with her, but seriously who does that?! - ) , we can limit our interaction with Maya and Josy, until the point where we can basicly say lets just to be friends .
that's why I don't think the affinity or even the Status should punish us. - and now this is not constructive criticism. this is my personal dislike of the system

DarkMetal idea actually spoiled me , now I'm actually gonna be disappointed that it's probably not going to be that way.

I really hope we get to fuck Ashley in an upcoming chapter.

Quinn could enlist MC to nail her to help her get over her fears of joining the restaurant, or a spiteful Ashley could seduce MC as a revenge fuck on Derek.

This could be the thing to permanently drive a wedge between MC and Derek.

How would this make any sense at all?

What do you guys think about the dynamic between Rusty and Tommy?

Dunno - I thought Tommy's comment to Quinn when he berated her about the Prep Mansion night where he said something like "I'd have considered you a closer friend than Rusty at this point" was interesting and unexpected as they've clearly been friends for a really long time. There's also clearly some kind of thing between them where Rusty clearly knows Tommy is into some drug stuff that he won't get involved with, so if there's any friction, it's likely tied to that.
