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

[tipsytopsy]

The father of Maya is not a real person. Is a cliché character written by the dev. And that's what I don´t like: the postmodern cliché of "conservative people= bad / lesbians (and of course, being lesbians, they have to be progressive people and feminist) = good and victims of the previous ones. That's Lack of originality in writing, and mental laziness following the mainstream ideology. To create a negative lesbian character: that would be to have guts and originality in 2021. But that's not even what I´m asking for. I´m asking for not being lectured in ideology in a fucking porn game. Not art, not literature, not philosophy. A fucking porn game. And even a fucking porn game is not free of the fucking woke ideology that we find in almost every single TV show (including advertisement), movies, comics, novels and, of course, internet... Not even in porn games we can get away from SJW, progressive agenda and woke ideology!

Anyway, of course, the dev can do the game he wants. And I can rant here (and can´t care less about progressive people giving "facepalms") and not support the game in Patreon (and can´t care less about progressive people saying that the dev don´t care because he´s already making good money. It could be my money too, but won´t be). I´ll just play the game downloaded from a pirate forum, and I´ll hit the button of skip in the scenes and characters that I think insult my intelligence.

[CHAD-MAN]

A bigass celebration and a wholesome group hug moment, DIKs finally realize what it actually means to work as a family and achieve something. Everybody played their parts.

Halloween party IS significant because DIKs couldn't organize a party since the trashing of the mansion. This will mark the return of the parties and also it's a special one. That's what makes it important. I also expect DIKs to hire some The Pink Rose girls too, for that party.

Thats not what I meant, I meant if you still have turns and the house is fully fixed...

 

[dalli_x]

First a query, why do you think he mistakes Sarah for Mona?
Also, even with the end of chapter 7, there is still nothing firm as to what the relationship is between Mel and Chad (we only know it's not romantic).

I believe that Alex is Melanie's boyfriend. Chad and Alex are also good friends. Maybe that was the reason why Chad was invited.

 

[tipsytopsy]

Thats not what I meant, I meant if you still have turns and the house is fully fixed...

You just go through the house mini-game as normal. I used save-edit to just infinite money myself into quickly fully fixing the house. And so when the the house mini-game showed up, all I could do was send the DIKs on jobs to make money.

 

[crunchycake]

Wow. Very nice.

Yup surly they are.
Just wondering if there is a "shot" that shows Wendy and Derek were actually buddy (lovers even) "IRL"

>.>

That could be fun

 

[Blades1138]

Numerous theories abound.

• Nick is a mole in the DIK house - he's close friends with Vinny who has a bad history with the DIKs and Vinny is causing trouble.
• The Cathy cluck is probably completely unrelated, stemming from the Jocks, and since the laptop was found in the library, it wasn't locked away at the time, it could have been accessed by anyone - I believe finding Nick in the library at the time is a red herring.
• Nicks room being untouched is a huge clue (possible such a big, blatant clue, that it may be a red herring) that Vinny was involved in the trashing of the mansion.

I thought setting up Nick as a traitor is a mislead and more likely it was Vinny himself who did it all. But I got to thinking that I was basically giving Nick a pass, because he's the nicest guy in the house and realized nobody is really that nice. So now that making me suspect that he's indeed a mole, buddying up to everybody and pretending to be generally harmless and non-conflicting. We'll probably see soon enough, but either way Vinny's involvement is the one thing that's undeniable.

About Nick's room

It's pretty obvious that mansion got trashed by jocks and since Dawe currently jocks president he definitely was an initiator.
And what little detail singles Nick out of all other DIKs, why his room left untouched? Arieth.
All other DIKs, even Vinny and Derek (with matching circumstances), banged her. Nick obviously lying about banging her too to not stand out from the group.
Jocks even trashed the janitor room where Arieth got nice dicking.


Ofc it's just my opinion, I may be mistaken.

bravo, this is a really good read, simple and straightforward.

perhaps too simple for DPC?

 

[sorco2003]

I believe that Alex is Melanie's boyfriend. Chad and Alex are also good friends. Maybe that was the reason why Chad was invited.

In the conversation they have in Mel's room, you don't get to understand that. And I don't remember if at any point it is said that Mel is in a relationship.
If we understand that the most involved in Chad's situation is Mel, Sarah is enjoying the party without caring much about it until she hears the MC ask who invited Chad.

 

[OFT]

Thats not what I meant, I meant if you still have turns and the house is fully fixed...

I've wondered the same thing. DPC placed opportunities to fix the house in specific parts of the story. How will he reconcile those story breaks if, say, one person finishes the house two turns before another? I'm guessing that if one of those scheduled breaks comes up and you've already finished the house, he might skip the part where the MC checks the board and the subsequent game, similar to if you had the minigames disabled. Later, he might put in a scene something like the DIKs breakfast, and in the MC's summary, he announces that all the work is done and the windows can be replaced.

 

[Klopdwerg]

I can say that's a more possible theory. But, how do they know it's Nick's room? My theory is it's just they didn't have enough time left so they couldn't properly destroy his room.

Vinnie knows

 

[felicemastronzo]

Vinnie knows

anyone who has ever been to a DIKs party would know this, for example any HOTs

 

[Kulman]

Any word on us getting some more Cathy action in the next update?

But I got to thinking that I was basically giving Nick a pass, because he's the nicest guy in the house and realized nobody is really that nice.

We'll probably see soon enough, but either way Vinny's involvement is the one thing that's undeniable.

I have similar suspicions. Nick seems particularly upset about Vinny's departure. If Vinny got chased out by Tommy, and perhaps they feel that Rusty didn't support Vinny when he should have, then Nick might be helping Vinny ruin the DIKs as part of a larger revenge scheme. Or Nick is sad because he knows it's Vinny doing this, but doesn't want to rat out his friend.

 

[JETracktor]

Well, not so obvious. We get to know about every other DIK banged Arieth only on MC's birthday party when many players already move on from the whole mansion story so the hint may left unnoticed (or not understood).

DPC really good on dropping those subtle hints. At the end of 3rd episode I was kinda shocked about how blind I was not noticing Maya and Josy relationship. I've replayed those 3 episodes immediately and noticed dozens of hints, like goddamn.

1. Maya was in MC and Josy hometown before the story starts - how odd is this? Well, coincidences happens but still.
2. Tommy knows who Maya is and Tommy is Josy's step-brother. Later we get to know Maya was visiting Josy and met Tommy there.
3. Josy knows some people who already studying at B&R besides Tommy and that "someone" is feminist

It's a porn game, of course the lesbians are gonna be good.

The game isn't "lecturing", it's using stereotypes to speed along some character development.

We really don't want a big back story on why Maya's dad is hell bent on stopping her from being gay.

DPC is like, "OK, this dad, he's one of those backward thinking, anti-gay, hypocritical, religious nuts, you know what I mean", and most of us are like, "Yeah, fuck that dude, and we'll fuck his daughter while we're at it!"

The dev could have left out the religious angle, and just made Maya's dad out to be this guy who doesn't want his girl to be gay, but then we'd all be like, "fuck man, why is this dad so fucking insane about his daughter being gay, is he like a religious nut or something?"

I thought setting up Nick as a traitor is a mislead and more likely it was Vinny himself who did it all. But I got to thinking that I was basically giving Nick a pass, because he's the nicest guy in the house and realized nobody is really that nice. So now that making me suspect that he's indeed a mole, buddying up to everybody and pretending to be generally harmless and non-conflicting. We'll probably see soon enough, but either way Vinny's involvement is the one thing that's undeniable.

It's possible that Nick isn't even fully aware that he is the mole.

We know he catches up with Vinnie often, it's pretty much all he talks about, but that doesn't mean he holds a grudge against the DIKs, but he may have given some information to Vinnie or whatever.

I'd say when Nick's room is untouched after the mansion is trashed, Nick realises what's going on and he feels genuinely bad, buying stuff for Jacob, offering to help out at the old folks' home instead of the strip joint.

Not obvious, but Simple, with a little drama involved

Annyway, yours is the best explanation now

More than the fact that they did not touch the room, what is suspicious is that he asked the MC not to say anything. And add to that what you say, that gives the impression that he feels responsible. Maybe he is just a great person, but DPC makes you doubt everything.

 

[DavDR]

I think he's probably an OK guy but Vinnie is a fucking terrible influence on him.

I was starting to think that Nick might even be gay (oh fuck, not another one ), but then in that flashback scene when the DIKs are singing the Walk of Shame, some poor girl is running the gauntlet and they are all chanting "Nick! Nick! Nick!".

This makes me even more curious as to why he seemed so sheepish when he was telling the gang that he also fucked Arieth.

Poor Nick, he just looks like such a shady cunt!


Hey DavDR , fuck it's been a while!

Yeah, it's an ironic thing to hate bigots... It makes you a bigot! So you have to get to know them personally and hate them for some other random shit.

Yeah, if you ever actually took the trouble to get to know them you might find they weren't bigots in the first place. That would shatter your whole world view.

I'm also starting to think that Nick may have had something to do with the Chad blackmail. Compare the two shirts of Chad and Nick. It kind of reminds me of the black and red sneakers of Chad and Troy. Maybe Nick is also gay and Chad's ex?

Melanie sucking up to Sage after HOT Party is a neat touch. Usually, she's always being sassy with Sarah on Rooster but not this time because Sage starts to see the light
