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

[Journey95]

Yea I kinda got some of those vibes. Especially if you go back to the dorm with Josy and she basically tells you she still likes you but she didnt feel like she had a choice. I just want to make sure I dont lose a Josy route just because I didnt want anything to do with Maya lmao

I think there is clear set up for a solo Josy route in the last two episodes.. she still has feelings for the MC & you can show that you also still care for her in that way. There will likely be an option in the next episodes to take things further (hopefully).

 

[Journey95]

Oh, i put all my money in this.

I am sure you are aware of the similarities beetwen BADIK and AL. Well, who were the main girl in AL?. They are different stories, but every writer has his own obsesions, and one of the main obsession of DPC seems to be trouples.
And a really important piece of information, DPC girlfriend is... a feminist.
Now, thoose are hints, are meant to give a probable insight into the writer mind. But its story structure what gives you the confirmation. So let's see it.

But first, every conventional story (and this one it is) is the combination of a trouple relation Hero-Victim-Villain. It's the relation with the victim wich definesthe role of every character, thoose who help and thoose who hurt it.

Quinn is an interesting character for many reasons. But it's her relation with Maya who defines her role in the story. Her role was defined at the endig of episode 1/begining of ep2, when she "forced" Maya to grind herself with the MC and kidnapped him. Yet the scene (good one but ilogical for me) was explain by the same story as an agression towards Maya. Before that her character wasn't really defined, we almoast didnt knew her. Besides that, her relation with the MC depends on your path and the worst thing she did was to get Mona out of college. But when Mona get out of college? Exactly the moment that Maya was facing a similar scenario. Do you see? Is like when a movie they make an extra to have a horrible death in a moment when the main character is in a similar position, its not meant that we care about the extra but to build tension on the main character by showing what could happen to him. Even Quinn, Sage struggle (the other significant relationship that Quinn has with a LIs) has suddenly a name in ep7, and that name is Maya. Right now she is making Sage and Quinn to fight each other.

About Sage... yes she had her own story, but also Josy had their own. Now we know that was a sublot meant to build the main plot... her relation with Maya. Sage story is pretty simple, more than a story its a back story. At ep7 (when suddenly you can pursue her again) she had a complete swift. People were still arguing about the fundamental Sage traits, did she kenw about the buffet? Did she was therefore good? And at episode 7 she gets over Chad and throw herself into the Maya Quinn conflict, and by doing so defines her role, yes she is good, no she didnt knew about the buffet. And by doind it puts the whole Status Quo at risk. Again her role is defined at the ending of episode 7 in that speech wich is meant to be the core of the climatic moment of the whole episode.

About Bella and Jill. Well thoose are presisely the storylines who are not integrated yet to the main storyline. And yet, did you notice the intense way Bella looks at Maya? Yes, the simple explanation is that she is interested in the MC. But whythe story puts enfasis on that? Bella saw the MC with Josy but she didnt talk about her with Jill. She also saw him with Sage, but besides a couple of obvious questions nothing happened. And Bella-Sage relation is more significant. I call it a rushed foreshadowing and we will see exactly where it is going later.
All the LI's paths are going to converge as long as the history progress and by doing so become a single plot.

Finally, i give you the graphic show of the mainclimatic moments and endings. I think it is a good way to see the narrative structure:

You make some valid points but I don't think the Acting Lessons comparison fits. Megan was forced on you from Day 1 and you basically had to romance her. But in being a DIK you don't really have to romance Maya and since there are more main girls than in AL it doesn't feel like there is a clear female lead this time...at least so far and I hope it continues, I don't want every main girl's plot to revolve around Maya

It does seem that DPC still has big things planned for Maya (since she is connected with Quinn, Josy and now Sage) and she will be quite important..I guess we wil see how DPC handles it

 

[D2M3]

So I was thinking about this recently.... Is there a reason why Quinn, regardless of MC's choices and actions, hates Maya so much from the get go and onwards?

Like, what happened on that first day where Maya talked to HOTs about pledging that made Quinn such an incredible maniac against MAya, whereas she is at most a manipulative bitch to people like Mona and Camilla? What makes Maya her absolute hatred object?

That plotline is bugging me. Any ideas?

Ok, honestely i didnt put so much atention on Al, so maybe you re right.
Well, if you dont like Maya that would be dissapointing. But to be clear i dont think that Maya is the "future girlfrind", just that she drives the story. I also had my doubts about Jill, but then DPC said that she was a last time addition couse the "story needed". But why? Right now you can cut her out and everything else will be the same. So thats going to change even if its hard to see how.

It's not that she hates Maya, it's just that Quinn can tell from the get go that Maya is definitely not HOTs material. But she likes to toy with her (as she does with everyone). If toying with Maya so also messes with the MC, then it's a bonus for Quinn.

Also, Quinn likes the MC (more or less depending on your choices), so she likes to needle him about Maya. Regardless of whether the mc is in a relationship with Maya, Quinn thinks he is. From Quinn's perspective:

• MC & Maya share the same dorm room,
• Quinn, Mel and Sarah witness Maya grinding the mc, and there was definite chemisty,
• Quinn even says she thinks Maya is the mc's "Soon-to-be girlfriend" (in episode 6 at lunch with the HOTs).

So it's not such much that Maya did something wrong, it's just she's not cut out for the sorority, and Quinn, for her own entertainment, sees how far she can push Maya.

In the sauna scene, when asked why she took so long to pledge, Ashley says she feels that if Maya can pledge, and she likes Maya, then maybe she could pledge too. Sarah answers, "HOTs are no Mayas, though. She's Quinn's toy."

Personally, I think Ashley isn't cut out to be a HOT either, so not sure why she didn't get similar treatment.

Maya is not HOT material for Quinn standard.
I have an half idea that she wants to turn the sorority in a whore house, kinda. Prudish girl are useless to her but for sorority rules she can't deny Maya the entry so she treat her pretty badly and hand her a sex-driven hellweek list to have her giveup or fail. It would have work if not for Josy reporting in.

Also she probably hate her meek attitude

Great update. The render's quality is visibly better, seeing the progress in the mansion mini-game through the episodes is really rewarding and overall a pretty great plot to read through. So much content in a single episode, I wonder how many hours it'll take to complete one playthrough without skipping texts when the game is complete.

Is there a faster way to skim through gameplay than ctrl?

Tab (or left click the Quick Menu Skip button). It's the same speed as Ctrl, but you don't have to keep holding the button.

There is a fast skip option in Ren'Py which jumps straight to the next action/menu, which is normally triggered by right-clicking on the Quick Menu Skip button. DPC has disabled this feature in BaDIK 0.7 though (you'd need a

it).

Btw, what happened to the quick travel stuff for the DIK mansion? God, I really loath the free roaming navigation in this game.

It's still there if you hover over the bottom right corner of the screen during free roam events? Check your Preferences and make sure Fast travel button: Enabled

is any1 missing a riona render from episode 7? i followed the fan walkthrough and cannot find it. it says its from free roam. I am missing the 6th picture of the new set of renders

Let me start with this, What I will say, are my personal taught which for most of you guys will hate me for this but Let me say with all the respect and love to our community.
"I welcome any of your taught and insult if you do so. Peace out ! "

If I am right Dr. pink cake what to make this game close to reality as much as possible, I am keeping my feeling aside no matter I how much I love this game a because that will dull my judgement.

* TILL NOW, I will not talk about theories . . . *

1. Sage :
Mc and sage 'fuck-buddy' relation started because sage wanted to teach chad lesson. If chad weren't gay character and come back to sage, She would have thrown out mc of her life like most people do with fly in the milk.
If even i have to point out everything regarding sage and mc is 80% sexual. In chapter 7, When sage sees chad, I don't want to says but her heart bleeds for chad. At emotional bond with sage is quite a low expect one moment when you share you mother child birth story.
If we close to look close enough. All she want is sex with mc. I love this character, she help out mc, if you have no where to go but i believe no matter what, you can chose to go to derek but we won't. She is great friend and cares and look out for them but till now, A love relation with sage is doomed to fail because big dik can be found 5 out of 10 but love in these days ? Better believe in unicorns.

2. Bella:
This character certainly hold great character to stay with but 3 major point that put this taught to grave are basically she cheat on her virgin best friends that will destroy the argument of even a being a friend. She can destroy her friend love story by multiple sex encounter but can't handle a cathy bj, Why because she wants mc for her self. Let say mc have nothing to do with cathy but if your mc have any sexual encounter with other even one character, everything will fall apart.

What chance mc have if her husband returns ? "Dev" could make it work like her husband lost his memory or was in coma or something else all they way.

What do you think will happen if jill found out. Let me ask you will you do that to jill, what mc done if your mc is in relation with bella. I love this character yet I chose not to be with her because basically that i don't like do.

3. Jill :
I don't believe in Disney stories because they are just opposite of what reality like to do with anyone on daily bases.
If you are also on path on bella. it's will fail. Mc chose to fight for bella if you don't want to fall her for her blackmailer.(Given chance I want to stay her friend and help her regarding tybely issue, If i were given chance if will stay her fried and her her out every step like josy do to mc if your mc is even only a friend.)
She chose not to stand against tybelt so if any once which believe that she could go against her family for mc. Good luck with that. No effect of best friend bella even if you are not in relation with bella. She believe everything she does is right and as required mc to be a chick on her path no wonder she will ride mc.
JOSY know mc finical situation yet as mc point out not completely so as mc tries to teach her meaning of being poor at the event of chad vs mc. She know tybelt is liar and manipulate yet chose to believe him over mc at so many points.

I hope, I don't have to remind you id mc hurt her blackmailer by tennis ball, Jill will have sympathy for her blackmailer. so again best of luck . . .

4. Quinn :
Volatile as volcano(My mc is on her and sage path currently). Her character I have seen very rough up bringing, loved her father, she knows what money is. She is doing for everything for her family(father). I hope she fall in love with mc. Now while mc is on rise he is in demand but I fear in dark days for mc he do not sees same faith as tommy. Regarding the issue every once have with quinn.

1. Prostitution : She didn't pressure anyone, proof Quinn to mona : you knew what you being agree on. mona ; I didnt know, i will do older guys. She just give choices, choosing or not is up to individual. just like camila says and just like mel and sarha did.

2. Drug pedaling : Yes it's wrong but seller exists only because buyer exists. seller could be any and many. drug problem can't be solved untill buyer exists. I don't even mind that. she didn't durg to any body throat they come to her as proven many times.

3. Blackmail : It's just out of the content because she tell exactly what men in power like stephan will do and he does it. Saying to mona what will happen because the choices she made is blackmail then there is noting to say.

4. Money : At least she straight forward and tell what she does same reason that tommy in ruin. She suppose to do that for her father. What length will any of us will go to our love once.

* * * The fall of tommy begin when (In my point of view): Time when quinn says to tommy : You like me like that but your sister is off limit(And regarding other girls). Tommy have nature of use and throw and selfish and controlling regarding everything and there are many point I can mention.
"When tommy says I am ready to be a scapegoat. Quinn : I like you and don't want you to do that but tommy character is to selfish and corrupt toward quinn." * * *

5. M & J :
Josy solo path is not available but she is great friend and quite understand mc but in M & J relationship mc is not primary . They don't even truth him over info of maya's father till the end chapter 6.
It's better to be a great friend then third wheel. There is no possible way of haram in as it's go against very fundamentals of being a family or in process of forge one.
Josy solo path were there I would have taken it. M & J also have many character flaw I can mention but I am done, I have done that many times.

If this game based even on 50% reality then : : : As the words goes "Reality is often disappointing".

There is light at the end of tunnel but if tunnel is full of light(Just like mc life currently in game) then at the end of tunnel you loss sight(reality, that lead to digaster) for seconds that is why tunnel are usually bit darker. So as i think bitter sweet time will arrive for mc and his choices and character he is engaging with will lead to multiple disaster situation and then we will full understand a possible partner.

In the end no matter how much you or anybody love anyone. Love can never over power money. sad but that is how it's work as history has proven over and over again.

and we forget about sage in bella path....if she cant handle a bj from cathy and rejects you afterwards what about when she finds out about you and sage as a fuck buddy's ) cuz she is her toutor in that disertation work and could happen to lose both bella and jill if u are in their path...cuz bella cand tell jill ur not worth at some point jezz

Bella doesn't know it was just a blow job. She probably thinks they had sex.

I was just thinking, what the hell went through Bella's mind when she found the undergarments? She'd be like:

"WTF!? Cathy went home demoralized due to the humiliation of being posted naked to the entire campus. MC gives her a lift home, and then he fucks her?! He's got to be the horniest little shit I've ever met!"​

Personally, I think Ashley isn't cut out to be a HOT either, so not sure why she didn't get similar treatment.

Because Ashley is not desperate enough to tell everyone that she wants to join because of free tuition, and go along with whatever they tell her to do as long as there's a hope of getting it. She doesn't fuck MC in the sauna, showing that there are some limits to how far she can go. If it was Maya, she'd probably start convincing herself that it isn't that bad because it's with you and she really needs that tuition. Also, Ashley is only accepted because Lily did all of her fun tasks

 

[LionsNose]

Hey~o,
Not sure if this is the place. Redirect me if necessary.
I play the game in Android port. Some issues are aparent, DPC screwed Android players out of some content, like the Sarah speciel and the Quinn and Riona threesome. Also the port i am playing does not let you play the brawlers, since there are No arrows available to press.
Sooo... Anyone know of a port for Android where these things are fixed?

 

[Napalm00]

Anyone sees Jill as well? 22 y/o russian btw

 

[Lol00000]

Sorry, but I'll ask again, is there any bug related to getting Sarah scene on episode 2? I won the body shots competition and paid quinn for the special take out, but the option "find Sarahis still greyed out", can anyone help?

Yeah, that's an issue, if you Play om Android.

There's a line in the code that says:

if not renpy.variant("pc"):

$ ep2_hotOpportunity = False​

Basically is you're playing it on Android, this line needs to be removed. There are a number of cases where this screws up the game.

When you go to tommy's room you have to click on a curtain on the right side.

Sweet thanks

And i am guessing that you can't just change the line or delete it?... Not that i would know how. :0
