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

[crabsinthekitchen]

Heather. I'd have sworn she was only addressing the MC in that scene. Not everyone in the kitchen. I'll pay closer attention when I get then on my next run. Also, I've only seen that scene on the Chick path which she's hostile towards anyway.

Heather addresses MC if you decide to retort when Caleb tells you to leave. Before that, her words are aimed at all of you, even though she looks at MC but that's just because she thinks you're a creep anyway

If MC chose to make the jocks leave then he can be a total asshole (like pushing Dawe into the pool). That was completely unnecessary.

IMHO the only unnecessary thing was making Anthony leave and even then I always do that because, like, how stupid do you have to be to go from Big A to Ant, have you even seen ants? they are the opposite of big

Yes, he knew he was going to be in trouble and still did it.
It's not as it should be, but it's as it is.

Yes, the guys are bullies with everything that comes with it. If he KNOWS that ignoring that will lead to fights ... then by ignoring it and seeking the confrontation ... he is a guy who gets into fights.

Bottom Line: People don't care WHY you do what you do, they only care about the results of your action.

The being there might lead to a verbal confrontation, some harsh words. Sure.
Not that he *knew* it would happen, but certainly a possibility.
*Knew* he would get jumped 4 on 1? MC can see the future and 'knows' that will happen and does it anyway?? No.

And even if he did know. That doesn't make MC the 'guy that starts fights'.
It's still the jocks that start it.
He's just the one to hold his ground. (And, frankly, that's smart. The old wisdom about running from bullies and they will just keep bullying is absolutely true. Standing your ground and giving them something to think about at least opens the possibility they'll rethink things. Or just move on to an easier target.)

Now, you're right about people often looking at the end result and not the cause. So the girls comments aren't exactly surprising.
But back in my post that started this discussion I said I was annoyed by it, didn't say surprised

The part about that scene that felt off to me was there wasn't an option for the MC to reply and, rather forcefully, remind the girls that it was the jocks that start shit so they should go talk to them.
Something along the lines of: "Ya know, I'm getting really sick of getting blamed for that shit. They're the ones that attacked me. So go tell them I'm here and not to start any fights."

Indeed, mother's maiden name is exactly the sort of esoteric information that's expected in the modern world.

If we wanted to be as generous as possible, Neil might have been able to hide all the requisite documents from the MC if he was really dedicated to manipulating the MC; the MC seems happy to defer to him. But that's completely at odds with the way Neil handled the MC's inheritance. It would also require an inhuman lack of curiosity from the MC growing up.

At a certain point you just have to accept that the most likely explanation is the most likely explanation: the MC knows Lynette's last name, even if we won't learn it until it becomes relevant.

but even in this case MC knows his mother's surname, at most he knows a false one given to him by Neil.

And we don't even know the surname of MC..... Did Neil hide that from him too?

It's a never ending feud:

• Sage is angry at Chad because she thinks Chad is cheating so she asks mc to help
• Chad is aggressive to mc because he thinks he's after his girl (he's right )
• Dawe wedgies mc because he's on Chad's side
• The Jocks steal the mc's guitar (we don't really know the motive behind that whole deal)
• Jocks smash DIKs windows because they think they are stealing their girls
• Mc "trespasses" on Jock "territory" to help Sage (he knows he's in the wrong, that's why he's sneaking about)
• Dawe attacks MC for "trespassing" on Jock "territory"
• mc smashes all Jocks because they are fuckheads (sorry Anthony, you gonna hang with those turds you're gonna be labeled a turd)
• Chad attacks mc because he thinks he's blackmailing him
• MC destroys Chad's face because Chad attacked him
• DIKS smash jocks windows because they think they stole their girls back (and for original smashing attack)
• Caleb intimidates DIKs because he's a monster and because he has been told of their rivalry
• Mc pounds Caleb because he needs to be taken down a notch
• Mc conspires to get all the Jocks kicked out of the HOT's party (including pushing Dawe into the pool)

Basically this shit started years before the mc came to college, the fact that Chad is cool towards the mc if the mc defends him when he's being punished by Burke might mean things may actually become civilized, but do we really want that?

We still need a showdown between Caleb and the MC, and Dawe needs to be buried, but the DIKs are far from innocent, the mc included.

Sorry to destroy your fantasies but germans don't work 12-18 hours a day, they mostly work 8 but with maximal efficiency, they have about 4 weeks vacations and they don't work on week ends.
I live in Switzerland and it's exactly the same as in Germany, maybe more extreme!!

Indeed ! I only used the 12-18 hours a day because that what he said in his last Q&A. But honestly it doesn’t matter where he's from. I applaud his work ethic and creativity ! I just hope he doesn’t burn out...
Love Switzerland it’s a beautiful country, you lucky bastard

I'm still not sure what is the Tournament they preparing for. We dont see them doing any sport activities beside working out. My guess was, and Still is , that it's simply just a " Beauty contest " a BodyBuilding tournament or something. may be Powerlifting. That would explain the steroids they taking, for muscle gain

So I dont think it's actually involve fighting. That would also Explain how MC, beat the shit out of them with simple cardio, yoga, and home made learn MMA

That's true ! What kinds of jocks are they ??? In other college shows or movies, the jocks usually have sports scholarship for playing basketball or football. But like you say all they do is weightlifting and take steroids ! Maybe they all have bodybuilding scholarship, in that case-good luck getting someone else pee to pass the drugs exams !
Maybe Anthony plays basketball. he has the right physique and he doesn’t look like a juiced moron. That why he's the best jock

 

[GrumpyBanana]

forget the jocks, this is the one you're looking for, you just don't know about it yet

Far from it. He also Fucking his best friend's girlfriend. and then, He kind of dropping his BFF , avoiding him when an another girl show interest in him. Now that I shifted the universe back to its balance, and Helped Derek and Ashley to find love. Big A probably gonna go back to banging Arieth

but I understand Why people find him sympathetic. I mean plenty of people want to Fuck Tommy's girlfriend, may be this helps them to look into the mirror, without disgusted by themself

 

[Lovetities]

I am wondering if Mc and Chad will become friends in the future? Jocks and Diks? If Mc defended Chad which means he think MC is cool and he is also thought MC is Blackmailing him so since MC found out the truth why Chad beat him. So, I think it is a possibility Diks and Jocks might work together in the future against the hacker or president Burke

I'm not sure if any of those double entendres were intended, however to all the people who keep harping on how bad a writer DPC is, almost everything said in the game is gold. Each to their own of course, but this is the only game on this site that I haven't been even remotely tempted to start skipping dialogue on the first run.

Back to the double entendres, if DPC meant even half of them then he's just fucking awesome.

Seriously? I'll offer you one line from another game that shoot's that theory down.

"Didn't you know that all women are like spaghetti" "Straight until wet"
-Chris, Heavy Five

A much more clever line, and that's just one. Dude you need to get out more often.

 

[vogelbeest]

I'm still not sure what is the Tournament they preparing for. We dont see them doing any sport activities beside working out.

It's called "MetalMan" competition, Dawe uses that as a tag in some cluck, we see them playing basketball too in a cluck btw.
But yeah... could be pretty much anything.... funny if you google it btw, seems there actually is a "Metalman"-competition but it's connected to some irish beer

 

[DavDR]

Or Turkish. Actually, I'd not be surprised if ICSTOR was one of my people indeed. He has the temperament.

DPC though, I think just does his research well.

Does his research well? Have you even followed the whole student loan debacle? And that's just one example.

try googling ironman .
DPC likes doing this stuff , twitter - rooster , Swyper - tinder
and im sure theres more .

 

[DavDR]

I see, if that's the case then we can be almost sure he has no connection to any of the high class families he met at the university.

There's also the possibility that MC's surname is his Mother's surname, his parents weren't married. I confess I don't know exactly how that works, or if Neil had MC's name legally changed at some point. DPC has left all of this purposely vague.

I thought they mentioned football at some point. But don't hold me to that, it's a vague memory.

Well, that's true but it's not like he broke a loving relationship... Dawe and Arieth clearly don't belong together since she's the one cheating on him all the time and honestly who wouldn't ! Dawe is just a cunt with a Micro-penis ! He should really get it shit together, try to be a better person and just stop taking the contraceptive pill That way he can just be happy for his BFF new girlfriend and stop being so moody ! I can't wait to see how the Derek-Anthony-Ashley love triangle plays out ! you're probably right with Arieth now its going to be a love square !

I honestly wanted to Fuck Heather since episode 4 just to get back at Tommy. Because he was being a bad father, he was kind of prick and I always thought he was the main antagonist of the game... But now that changed he's just the loveable asshole of the group and he really cares about the DIKS ! I will still fuck Heather in my massive dick playthough but now I'm going to feel bad about it #CuckTommy

Really? Cause I wouldn't miss a second of the deluca family, summer's gone or chasing sunsets.

You mean I have to stay in more often. I actually downloaded Heavy Five a few days ago. Haven't started it yet.

P.S. That's not even an original joke...

I haven't played Summer's Gone or Chasing Sunsets. Deluca Family's writing is pretty shit in my opinion. The story is a strange kind of interesting, however most characters have the same characteristics to lesser or greater degrees (they are all fucking insane). The only thing I found particularly memorable was Luna's back story, but only because it was an horrific experience for her. The tone of the backstory was 100% different to the rest of the game.

To me, BaDIK is more of a casual gamer style. Although there's crazy theories abounding, it's mostly light hearted and a lot of fun.

Does his research well? Have you even followed the whole student loan debacle? And that's just one example.

That's a little disingenuous. It's not simply "just one example" it's the prime example and most debated contradiction in the game.

 

[vogelbeest]

You can only fight the big guy if you CHOSE to fight the jocks in the gym. That's at least 2 fights that could have been avoided but you chose not to. The MC got kicked out of his room, maybe started a fight with his roommate. I am not sure if that has any influence (I think not), but his reputation to get into fights is not completely unearned.

Beating up Troy will give 2 negative points towards the cafetaria scene with Bella, (another 1 point negative if you are wearing the dildo helmet, 2 points for paying her meal and then some more, dunno all of them)
The total outcome needs to be positive for Bella to like you.... (No Bella path if not)
