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

[Lostanddamned]

She's gonna take off her dress to give James the time of his life as a welcome present?

Not James, but Magnar. You know, the second biggest guy on the campus after Caleb.

 

[Lostanddamned]

I only started regularly posting here since March 2021 but I remember some people correctly guessed Chad/Troy, Josy/Maya & Jill being a Royce. Altough there are many crazy theories that is now obsolete & proven wrong (anyone remember Jacob x Josy? lmao)

The most ridiculous one was that John Boy is Jade and Stephen's son and Tybalt's brother and it's based on the detail that his initials are J.B.

 

[Warscared]

I want to see Jill angry. Show some passion and fight for the guy you want! It should make her think about her situation. She is on a date with a dude she doesn't like while the man she does like is sitting across from a pretty lady. Take action woman! You have already seen flashes of Bella and MC hitting it off. Even naive Jill should know something will happen if she doesn't pick up the pace. BTW, although Bella's dress is pretty, I think it's funny that she dresses sluttier and shows more cleavage at her job...as a school librarian...than at the local pizzeria.

i guess you forgot Bella´s number 1 student who quoted her verbatim to Tommy´s girl heather "boobs are empowering, use them for your power plays!" or something along those lines! since she has to deal with all sort of male dweebs nerds and so forth like Stephen Burke her dressing in her work environment is a kind of Armour she wears to keep all those who would challenge her out of balance (mainly because they have their blood diverted from their head to their other head that shifts their center of gravity)!

What you always have with your NTR. Also, it wouldn't be an NTR because Zoey and the MC were no longer in a relationship.

Also, if you read my post correctly, there is a possibility that Zoey is and remains just a good friend.

Also, I never wrote anything about Side Girl. Not even Mona was a side girl and the MC could still fuck her.

This post of yours is really weak.

i do not believe you understand NTR! it only happens if you love a girl! your wife can cuck you and not be NTR if you do not love her, and the girl for whom you got a crush but were never brave enough to even talk to her can NTR your ass with her legit boyfriend! it always comes from the heart of the observer if its NTR or not and how hard it hits you is dependent on how much love you have for a girl (or dude we do not discriminate around here!)

You agree? The theory has been around for a long time. Guess from whom?

i was gonna call him out on that but i assumed it would be better if you did it!

you are losing your touch. Maya and Derek lived in another city (a 2 hour drive).
Maya does not have an older brother (they are twins).
And I doubt Zoe ever met Josy, but I'm too lazy to research, think and write anything reasonable.

you are probably right! but they live in the same town and are roughly the same age!

i always found it wierd that Josy and the MC only got acquainted with each other at work... i just over write it as Josy living in the same city as Maya and Derek and moving out after the Maya crushing and terrible coming out to her family party! so Josy went to live with her father to get out of maya´s vicinity and stop causing her problems!

Her personality kinda changed a bit when it comes to sex too. Episode 5 she wasn't overly interested and actually will make you pay if you're a DIK but in episode 7 suddenly she's like "wow you have a howitzer" like what? Did she forget MC was forced to pay for it earlier haha

thats because in ep.5 she had nothing to gain but after joining the HOT`s she understands that there is a path to power!
so the MC is still paying the difference is the MC will pay charisma and status by going around with her and be one of the all important steps into power!

the rolling with me conversation is very important!
furthermore after she got her pieces in action she called someone to report in!
either her mother to tell her she found a nice dude or her handler to tell her everything is going according to plan and she expects to have the hot house secured by the end of the semester!

If she wishes to become an important figure in College she needs girls to envy her! money is not an issue her social position is so a hot boyfriend that is in all manners and forms prez of the dik´s except in name will give her the clout to get her position!

also greek presidents tend to have special scholarships so .... maya tuiton problem could be solved if she took over the HOT`s!
or the simp MC can become the DIK`s president for real and can use that scholarship to pay for her tuition?

The most ridiculous one was that John Boy is Jade and Stephen's son and Tybalt's brother and it's based on the detail that his initials are J.B.

i admit not my brightest moment! but hey it was my 3rd post on this forum!

Question regarding intended LIs for the MC: If you look at modded versions of the game, the LIs or those with whom relationship points are possible include Josy, Maya, Jill, Bella, Sage. They don’t include Zoey(?), Quinn, Cathy, whatever the Dean’s wife’s name is, Envy, etc, etc. Is this a mod call, or is there something coded within the game itself that doesn’t track this for the other characters?

Naah I believe they just fuckable characters and not LIS so u don't need a point system for them

 

[Pendrell]

Lads are we over-analyzing Quinn scenes? Strap in

The 8 ball is very interesting in the context of the rain scene for a couple reasons. The rain scene itself is maybe the most important Quinn scene in the game so far, if there ever is a Quinn LI path then I'd consider the rain scene to be the actual start of it. So nothing in this scene can be overlooked as far as symbolism and foreshadowing of Quinn's story and character go.

Now when Quinn is left alone at the start of the scene, she kneels down and takes the 8 ball out of a box. We see similar boxes being used when the MC is cleaning up the junk in the room, so I'm pretty sure the 8 ball isn't MC's personal property. We know that the room was previously Vinny's, and we also know from the story and from screenshots posted in this thread that Quinn knew Vinny.

Did the 8 ball belong to Vinny because it was in the room? I think that's very likely, unless the 8 ball belongs to the MC and I missed that.

Assuming the 8 ball is Vinny's, did Quinn recognize the 8 ball as belonging to Vinny, just like she did the room, and pick it up for that reason? Maybe. If Quinn has seen or used the 8 ball in the past, it could be somehow related to her relationship with Vinny that we'll receive information of in the future. For now all I can say is that if the 8 ball is Vinny's, then it's possible that Quinn recognized it because of her connection to Vinny and the message that appeared has some significance between them. As a wild example, maybe at some point in the past Quinn was in Vinny's room and asked the 8 ball about something important to her at the time. Seeing the same 'don't count on it' message reminds Quinn that nothing has really changed and she's still on her shit trajectory and she drops it back into the box.

Again, this is wild speculation based on not much but what else are we here for than to be wrong about all our predictions

Now with all that aside, let's consider the significance of the 'don't count on it' answer.

When Quinn picks up the 8 ball, the 'don't count on it' message fades in. We don't actually know if she asked the 8 ball a specific question, or if she shook it at all, so the significance of the 8 ball's answer to Quinn and how she took it could mean anything. But it's pretty clear from the context of the scene that this is being shown for a reason, because the scene is so important to Quinn's character, so it's unlikely it was thrown in there for no reason. That's purely meta knowledge of the narrative though, so it's more interesting to analyze the mood of the scene and characters to see if there's something there to be gleaned about Quinn.

Quinn had just been robbed, beaten up, and was in deep shit for losing the drugs. As the MC says, in that moment, Quinn looks 'defeated'. So if she did ask the 8 ball a question, it was probably something along the lines of 'could this shitty day get any worse?' The answer is pretty predictable to that. I think it's telling that when she sees the 'don't count on it' answer, she doesn't set the ball back down, she just drops it into the box, like she already knew the answer and didn't care anymore.

But it doesn't actually matter if Quinn asked the 8 ball a specific question. The mere fact that the answer came up negative, like everything else in her life, is enough to convey the themes of Quinn's character in the scene.

Don't count on it. Don't count on anything. Don't count on anyone. That's exactly Quinn's philosophy, like Pendrell mentioned. Quinn has never had anything or anyone to count on in her life. She comes from a broken home full of drugs and abuse, she learned how to use others and be used by them, she doesn't expect any different even from her 'friends'. Then, in the rain scene, the MC does something selfless for her, without expecting anything in return, and she doesn't understand it. She's even hostile to it. She expects, and forces, every relationship and friendship she has to be transactional. Every favor, transactional. Every sexual act, transactional. Now that we're seeing that line of thinking being broken as the MC and Quinn get closer, with Quinn actively doing and allowing things (kissing, blowjobs, etc.) that she usually doesn't do, not for her own gain but to make someone else happy, she's starting to develop doubts about her philosophy and the things she's doing. We can see this in the final slides of the episode where Quinn looks up at the coke if you're on her 'path'.

So tl;dr on the 8 ball question, I don't think the 'don't count on it' answer is necessarily a self-contained hidden message or clue, unless it's somehow related to Vinny. I think Quinn's interaction with the 8 ball is part of the wider themes at play in the rain scene, with 'don't count on it' establishing the fact that Quinn has a particular way of seeing things, that the MC ultimately challenges by being someone she can actually count on.

Great post. I like the idea that it could be another potential call-back to something Vinny-related.

The exact nature of the Quinn/Vinny dynamic - in the past and now - is one of the mysteries that I'm most looking forward to seeing resolved at some point. You picked out a number of the hints that there is/was something there between them - she recognises that MC got Vinny's room, the flashback to the Tommy/Vinny argument with Quinn in the background etc. There's also another couple of lines that Quinn has in episode 6, first to Buddy when she's clearly aware of where Vinny is now ("Vinny doesn't deal to the same crowd I do"), and then later in the garden when she's adamant that Vinny didn't tell anyone about Riona's involvement. All this could just amount to a "professional" association, given they're both in the same trade, or it could be something more. The line to Riona always stuck out to me because, if we take it at face value and not just as some words to appease a panicky Riona, it suggests Quinn knows Vinny's character, and that he wouldn't talk - which hints at a closer relationship.

Probably about a month from now (early November), give or take a week. It seems DPC is wrapped up with all the major elements of the episode and is left with finalizing some details and handling technical elements so that the season can also be released on Steam and prepare a save that will be readily exportable to a "new" build when season 3 starts.

It's because only the 5 with RP are LIs, the others don't have RP to track as they're side characters

I found it curious that Quinn, with so much story, isn't one of the LIs.

you keep forgetting that that by that rules you got the best LI of all That never gives you shit and is always ready to cuddle always by your side to give you hugs and as no problem with you perving on him! Derek is the best LI

hey rp with Derek is also tracked so there´s gonna be some swordfighting in the Halloween and i am not talking about Chad and Troy!

its gonna start with a sharing of a girl and they will feel each others dicks trough the girl look into each other eyes and just say "fuck it its college its time to try!"

then they and the girl will never ever talk about it ever again! mainly because Maya is gonna walk in on them pummeling Josy ...and
and...
and...
and in the end Maya will ask Patrick if they have relatives in Alabama and will never look at Derek the same way!

I found it curious that Quinn, with so much story, isn't one of the LIs.

she is marked for tragedy! if he made her a LI he could be acused of having a fetish of killing off his love interests!

Jesus christ I didn't need to have that image implanted into my brain

 

[felicemastronzo]

so far none of the




At first I thought you were talking about the ridiculous theories that are constantly being bandied about here, but then I realised you were talking about the game itself. I don't see the big deal.

Siblings often go the same colleges, so it's no big deal that Maya and Derek are there, nor Josy and Tommy. Sure it was a surprise to find out the asshole DIK father is Josy's step-brother, but it's not ridiculous or anything.

Jade being married to Stephen was disclosed early on, and their marital issues are part of the plot.

Tybalt being the son of the schools rich benefactors is no big deal, if anything it just enhances the flavor when fucking Jade's brains out. And it wasn't some big reveal, it just was.

In my various schooling (primary school, high school and university), some of my friends were the kids of some of my teachers, or a nephew or niece. Shit like that happens. There were siblings all over the place. I wasn't fucking any of the teachers though...

So far, no one at the school is related to the mc in spite of all the theories, so which family relationships seem contrived?

I think it's the utterly baseless theories that are tiresome, not the game's actual relationships.

Even the Sage/Burke theory is just a theory (and pretty far fetched). It's pretty obvious who her dad is, it's the red headed man-bun guy that was looking for her at the preps party, not Stephen Burke.

why should it be ridiculous or not believable? if tomorrow we found out that all DIKs are cousins of various degrees it would be possible. the question is whether it is useful to the story, to the entertainment.

the kinship or close relationships between the various characters for what we have seen so far have been?

they have certainly been useful to DPC that in this way has created relationships between characters without having to explain them, without having to show us much (Derek and Maya love each other because they do, Josy and Tommy can not stand each other because it is so). for this I call it a cheap and lazy choice, the laziness on which are based for example many games with incest, where the incest itself becomes the plot and motivation of the characters.

but were they particularly useful to the story? i don't think so.
that Maya and Derek are siblings has actually damaged both of them, if Maya had hosted MC just for empathy it would have been better than if she had done it to return a favor to her brother, and Derek's role as the controller of his sister's infidelities has certainly not earned him any points. that they are both Patrick's children has so far had minimal consequences and negligible developments

the same goes for Tommy and Josy, a situation that has generated little and nothing, in theory the most important consequence would have been that Quinn wanted Josy in the HOTs to annoy Tommy, but it seems to me that it is a topic already exhausted, there are still the cuddles that Heather does to Josy ... unmissable

the fact that Tybalt has his little family there with him has generated a few moments of comedy and, in theory, the sword of damocles of the video of Jade (extra-optional)

that's fine, but it's this idea of microworld that drives and generates all these theories (see a new professor, and she could be a friend of Lynette's youth, Melanie how can she not be Troy's sister? and if Nora was related to someone else who would really be surprised?)

in practice, the game of the bottle (or of the dildo) has an enormous possibility of generating incestuous acts

Probably end of november let's be honest he's streching this update release as much as he can cuz imma pretty sure he is in no mood to start the work on the next update this year so myeah...

[seniorboop]

Quinn could probably bump both Bella and Jill off. Pretty sure she has more mandatory story involvement than both those two by quite a bit (and better character development imo).

Jill and Isabella's plot can pretty much be ignored entirely and you wouldnt miss any plot on the critical path at all. They're surprisingly non-essential for main LIs.

I don't forget but, as far as I can remember, there hasn't been RP for Derek since chapter 1/2 so I assume it's an abandoned feature

 

[ename144]

It's fucking terrifying. Up until ep 7, the narrative pretty much had the girls accepting the relationship with the mc was open, and that jealousy would be expected, and that they're not in a deep relationship.

But that came crashing down when Bella kicked the mc to the curb after the Cathy incident.

So crunch time may be upon us for more than one mutually exclusive relationship.

A Jill and Bella split seems obvious, and it'll be dramatic as fuck given how close those two are.

Also a Maya and Josy split could be on the cards for the solo seekers.

Could shit get ugly between Sage and Quinn? After Quinn was so uncomfortable with Riona during the Sage garden fuck, she may start to realise she doesn't like sharing unless she's making a profit.

Since Jill found out that half the school knows what the mc's erect cock looks like, I think she's not about to "give it away" unless she has assurances that it will be exclusive.

So yeah, could get ugly. The best option is a Halloween party where everyone wears masks and the mc can fuck everything that moves with impunity... yeah, that's gonna end in tears...

It's called "Crossroads." Presumably Episode 8 will have at least one path we don't get to take.

Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it certainly won't make waiting the next ~month any easier.

I completely disagree. The Maya and Derek situation feels natural and Derek's internal conflict of being the mc's "bro" and Maya's actual bro has been a source of entertainment. It's similar to Bella looking out for Jill except Derek doesn't have jugs.

It wouldn't have worked if he wasn't her brother, to make Derek an overprotective male friend of Maya's would have been weird, and everyone would be going on about a supposed past relationship between the two and that would have been distracting.

And the Tommy and Josy siblinghood has resulted in a number of things. Tommy getting kicked in the balls for one. Also, now that the DIKs know the mc is dicking Josy, their concern about Tommy finding out matches ours (although I'm happy to beat Tommy down again if he has an issue with it).

But to bring up other possible family associations that haven't been established yet, is muddying the water. If there were no wild theories of heaps of other people being related, I doubt people would feel the number of actually established family ties were anything to consider.

I do believe Mel is Troy's sister though, but given both are side characters, it's not going to amount for much other than establish Mel & Sarah's motives for their past exploits.

Anyway, I don't think we're gonna agree on this one, but that's cool.

Speaking of spin the dildo, I found it funny that the MC would rather kiss Derek than Arieth.

Jill and Isabella's plot can pretty much be ignored entirely and you wouldnt miss any plot on the critical path at all. They're surprisingly non-essential for main LIs.

But what is the critical path? I thought the critical path was to fuck Josy, Maya, Sage, Jill & Bella.

Everything else is just distraction.

But I'm just joking. Jill is too nice to be interesting (other than her rocking body). Quinn is definitely one of the most interesting characters in the game, if her being such a cunt doesn't put you off. Imagine the game where her character didn't exist?

I don't forget but, as far as I can remember, there hasn't been RP for Derek since chapter 1/2 so I assume it's an abandoned feature

Derek's RP have actually being increased in every episode, but surprisingly it's never been used for anything, ever.

The Nerd's RP was modified only in episode 4 and not used for anything.

The Jocks RP was updated only in ep 1 & 2 and only used as a single line in Chad's BIO.

The DIKs RP was updated in every episode except 6, and it's only used in the first strip club scene to determine whether Tommy buys the mc a lap dance.

The Preps RP can only go down so far, and it's not used for anything.

The HOTs RP is never modified or used for anything, it's basically an unused variable.

Naah I believe they just fuckable characters and not LIS so u don't need a point system for them

though some of them can affect your relationship with LIs. like messing with cathy will make bella reject you. walkthrough is very important for this game.

There's a walkthrough mod for this right?
