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

[Razrback16]

Dunno why he bothers trying to chase up these people he probably loses more money than he gains trying to hunt them down and remove them Dog the Bounty Hunter style. Most people with common sense ain't spending $50 on some text, polls and a few wallpapers... However if someone pays that then leaks the wallpaper he's up $50 + there is the chance those who see said wallpaper will buy the game or become a patron themselves. There is a reason why actual game companies don't put much of a fight against pirate games these days there is the chance someone will play it, like it then buy it. I bought season 1 on steam and have been playing season 2 release by release then will buy season 2 on steam to support. It would be different if he was earning bare minimum and was on a tight budget but he's not he's making a crazy profit per episode compared to other developers on this site scrapping by with part time jobs or full time jobs to support themselves while making their game.

No doubt. The only reason I even found F95 was BECAUSE of DPC, lol. (not kidding)

There's been tons of games I had never heard of and then ended up buying because someone mentioned them to me on a pirate site. So while at a glance I understand why some devs think piracy is bad, it actually can be a positive if you handle it right. The group that are too poor, or are just determined to never pay, are simply never going to be a paying customer no matter what you do. Period, so best not to worry about them. But the ones who just use piracy as a way to test drive a product, who end up really liking the product and want more of that product, and realize they need to back development in order to get more of that product will go buy your game to support you if you make good stuff and they'll even tell their friends about the game to boot. I would imagine a measurable chunk of Patreon supporters of games hear about them on sites just like this.

My boy Tybalt is hover-handing his way straight into that sweet sweet Jill pussay

No

 

[Jimayo]

There you go, mine was a bet from classmates if I had the balls to ask the cute substitute out. Their jaws went to the floor when she said “why not”.

Right:? Turns out she'd always like me. She's someone I'd chit chat with when I was there and she enjoyed talking with me but she thought I was spoken for. When she knew I wasn't.... and it's been awesome. Not because she's gorgeous(though super plus) but she's really fucking cool. I really like spending time with her. I even told her about my porn games and she's playing fucking melody with me and loving it. She thinks it's super cute and super romantic.

No

You didn't leave him a dick pic?

 

[drakken]

yea watermelon with a knife burried in it and a suicide note saying it was all his fault because he was ignoring it for jill and that it will haunt him every time hes around jill. the go back in while hes sleeping and leave the butcher knife laying on the pillow beside him to wake up to. Then half of the of the watermelon at the foot of his bed the next night

And you and everybody else on this side are massively misinterpreting Jill's character.

You should refrain from such a sentence, dear Bacchus. It leaves a bitter aftertaste of bossiness. We are not used to that from you.

Because that's not what the game is telling us. The problem here is not any personal preference on my part, it's that people are actively choosing to ignore what the game is indicating simply because they don't want her to be a virgin. It's not that I want her to be, it's that the game is strongly suggesting she is.



If this game made it more ambiguous, I'd say it could go either way. If this game made it clear she wasn't a virgin and people were saying she was, I'd be pointing out how she isn't. But this game is sending very strong signals that she is and the personal preferences of others are causing them to be blind to those signals.

I like facts, that's undeniable. But facts don't always tell us everything. DPC also works a lot with gestures and facial expressions, which should be taken into account when interpreting scenes. Furthermore, in my opinion, DPC also uses knowledge of human nature.

The game implying that something Happened between Jill and Bella. What Assumption people make about it will not make it real until its confirmed .

and Jill being a virgin or not being a Virgin, at this point is just an assumption. Not a fact . at least, accept this.

It is difficult to find a correct answer to this question, because there are different interpretations for both answers. Since there is no explicit fact for both possibilities, they are only assumptions and I can't help but agree with ChipLecsap on this point.

She talks about these "persistent guys who would stop at nothing" to get a date with her, that the dates "weren't very enjoyable", that her "frame of reference" for dating "isn't the best", and most notably the fact that she's clearly uncomfortable with both thinking and talking about "intimacy and things of that nature". She neither seems like a girl who rushed into sex once and then put up these walls around herself to not rush into it again, or who ever got to the 3rd date with any of these "persistent" guys.



It seems to me to be quite clear as day that she's a virgin, and I don't say this because it's a kink of my mine because it isn't, or at least it's not something I ever really think about, I say this because this game seems to be making it a pretty clear-cut case.



In the context of Jill's character, it makes perfect sense. She's a shy, sheltered, naive girl who has antiquated views on dating "rules" and who is looking for a genuine, sincere, heartfelt connection with the one that she'll eventually give her v-card to.



From everything she's said, it's clear that no guy has come along yet that has been that for her, until now.

BaD is a game that is partly composed of fiction and real experience components. DPC mixes fantasy and his experiences in the story.

It on the theme.
DPC has certainly had a few dates in his life. I can tell by the fact that MC told Jill at the beginning of this date that he himself doesn't want to hear on a first date what problems the respective date partner has with any former partners.

On a first date everyone shows his best side (and DPC knows that too).The only thing we can claim with relative certainty is that Jill is interested in the MC. And here facts separate from knowledge of human nature.

Why the hell would Jill tell the MC on the first date that she has already had sex with one or more guys or maybe women?

In the worst case the MC could take distance from Jill and that is not what Jill wants.

I'm gonna say she's sweating from the run and about to go for a dip with the MC who's accompanying her on her run, or maybe the MC goes for a run with Maya and they bump into Jill and there's a choice between spending time with Jill or staying with Maya.

A nice thought that I really like.
But I have to disrupt this thought because there is a clue who the MC could be jogging with and meets Jill. I don't know the name now, but there is a DIK brother who offered the MC to jog together. If the two then meet Jill and MC proposes to go swimming together, this could bring the blush to Jill's face. (For Jill fans: Maybe there will be sex in the water between Jill and MC).

It's all just suspense. DPC will want people to think that something big will go down, and that the lack of Maya of previews means a total lack of Maya in the episode, but she'll probably end up being in it just as much as she was in Ep 6, or maybe it'll be like Sage in Ep 6 but with Maya being in a depressed funk over her situation and not willing to do very much for the next week.

Maya no preview and Josy only one but quite equivocal....



If not the father, something big is going to happen to the two girls. Separation, even if momentary I'd say it's very likely.

Not necessarily. Maya's family lives near B&R. If her dad did yank her out of college, it's possible the MC (and Josy) could try to sneak by and visit Maya off campus. In that case, DPC might want to avoid spoiling it by showing Maya in an unfamiliar background.



I think it's more likely she remains a student, but it's worth considering other possibilities.

DPC definitely clarified one option regarding Josy/Maya/MC in EP4. Whether the player wants to stay in a Romantic or Friendly relationship with Josy and Maya.

Therefore, I assume that DPC will open the solo paths for Josy and Maya in a friendly relationship with the MC. Then the interpreatation of Josy's preview that she is drifting in the pool might make sense, as she will consider whether she is fighting for Maya or just for the MC.

If the three are in a romantic relationship, Josy or Maya will have to move out. Maybe Josy will go to the HOT's, but I think that might be short term.I have a strong hunch that either Josy or Maya will stay at the MC longer term. Maya brings this up at the MC Biblitohek cleaning itself, that the room is big enough for two people. Maya also mentioned that she would like to try the pancakes from the MC. Jamie says to MC that the rule is not always followed. MC is also respected and appreciated by all DIKs. At the end of EP6, the MC says that he will come up with something. The beautiful artwork of Maya in MC DIK jacket shows a large bookshelf in the background. However, there could be problems with two DIK brothers. Derek and Tommy might be against it. With Derek, his protector instinct could be a hindrance to Maya. With Tommy, we all know what the problem is. Nail polish!?

The hover hand XD

 

[DaBigD]

You're just wrong. There's no other way to say it. If you have already been slapped then punching in retaliation is not self-defense. It's assault and battery. If someone goes to slap you and you knock their hand away that's self-defense.

slapping some one is assault, any response to assault is called agravated assault. and any response to an assault can also be considered self defense.

 

[dalli_x]

slapping some one is assault, any response to assault is called agravated assault. and any response to an assault can also be considered self defense.

In Germany, this is clarified in the law of self-defense as follows. A person may only defend himself in a reasonable manner. This means that the MC Tybalt may only slap. Consequently, the fist punch from the MC would be an inappropriate reaction. That would let the victim become the perpetrator in the German law.

Since we do not know from which country DPC comes, it is pure speculation which laws are applied in this case.

To put it simply. It doesn't matter.

 

[Deleted member 2528490]

Fairly sure that Aggravated Assault is when someone uses a weapon to assault or to assault with clear intent to kill or rape or something super serious. Not responding to assault with your own assault.

 

[Jimayo]

Yeah, legally you allowed to respond up to point of eliminating the threat to yourself. That's self defense. So yeah, you can deck someone who slapped you. If they keep coming, you can keep fighting. If they stop and you keep going, that's assault.

 

[DaBigD]

a man sold me his riding lawn mower for 1000 dollars, got a reciept, maintenance records and all the paper work, , 3 days later a man shows up at our property, opens the barn, and attempts to load it on the back of his truck, me and my brother intervene. pull or truck in front of his blocking his vehicles escape, he calls the police, cause we come out of our truck with shotguns. hides in his truck, until they arrive. police do theyre job and begin thier investigation. turns out his son stole the mower from this guy. he wanted his stolen property back. we not wanting to get involved with his family dispute, offered it back to him for the same 1000. he poked his fingers into my chest. the cops arrested him for assault. just for poking my chest with a finger,

so yeah a slap is an assault
tybalt is the instigator and thier just as many dik witnesses to his assault.
bottom line tybalt is reaching for straws, and knows jill is nieve enuff to believe anything.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Exactly, self-defence is operating violence because you are in immediate danger of suffering it.

Assaulting the person who assaulted you before is an eye for an eye, maybe it's self-defense in Texas.

 

[DaBigD]

tybalts assault aside, the other issues have merit, tresspassing, and property damage. but niether come with a prison sentence
