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

Cool, didn't know that.

I reckon that answers your question, Icekatana. There are quite a few people here using translators and us native English speakers don't even think about it.

It translates not only english. The tool is really handy and uses Google Translator as a translation matrix.

Available languages are English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Spanish.

I almost forgot about that. It's free of charge.

I'm not singling anyone out when I ask this question. Almost every screenshot I've seen on this forum does this. It's high time I asked.

Why do SO MANY of you play this game with the text box enabled and the opacity turned up significantly? What do you think it adds? To me, it just gets in the way of the render, like in this example above. I have my text box disabled and I see every word crystal clearly. Here is an example of my game.

Spoiler: Turn off your text box, people

So serious question, why do people prefer obscuring the renders?

But seriously I turn it off when I play but turn it on for screenshots because I post them for the text, if I wanted to post a render I'd just use original images without any text instead of screenshots

While researching the DPC patreon, I came across such a render Sage. Pay attention to her eyes. Sage is crying. Something tells me that it's because of the news about Chad's homosexuality.

I absolutely agree with this. In the right eye you can see a Halloween pumpkin. There are two guys present. One guy's hair color is unidentifiable, but the other guy is blond.

It could be that Sage catches Chad and Troy inflagrantie at the party.

Remember the cluck where the MC sarcastically replied to Sage?

"That's easier than my plan of asking them to fuck in front of you."

Maybe he did implement the hard plan at the Halloween party.

Wasn't that a theory of mine once?

That render is old I think DPC did it before EP 7 came out

Well, or the developer could pull off a twist with a delay of menstruation . My ex-girlfriend loved to scare me with her pregnancy, even though she had the usual delay, which could last a month and a half. Pregnancy is an easy way to create drama from scratch.

It’s possible … a pregnancy scare is a usual trope… Just look at Jamie and Dany

More drama for the MC I guess! If there is really a pregnant LI…
Worst Scenario: Game Over
Best Scenario: Pregancy sex

Well, I kind of feel singled out since it’s basically my screenshot.
Look I don’t know what to say… I have bad eyesight sue me.
Reminder: I thought that this new Discord avatar was Bella for a while.

Ever since the text box was available in episode 6 I used it and I never bothered to take it off…
But it’s true that it kind of suck that it partially blocks the render… That’s why ‘H’ is my best friend.
If some of you feel offended, I’ll remove the text box in my next screenshots!

That render is old I think DPC did it before EP 7 came out

That was from early ep8 development:

"Yesterday, I spent quite some time experimenting with makeup for Sage, which is a part of setting up a scene. I tried out different combinations to see if I liked something new. Here's a quick render of it; please note that the actual render is not used in the game it's just for this status update."​

[COOLMASTER]

I really hope we don't have to spill the beans to Sage (about Chad/Troy) in order to progress with her romance (and get the best content). That would be a really shitty thing for DPC to do to everyone involved. Players and some characters. I really hate that storyline. Why must everything hinge on revealing of the sexuality of two side characters who aren't in MC's circle of friends or love interests? Two ex-jocks playing grabass in the locker room....don't care! Ah ffs, DPC is going to do it, you know he is. Just like the "rebound guy" dumbassery, he has to throw in some weird off the wall side drama that you have no choice with.

I think DPC decided early on that he can't give players a perfect situation with an LI (namely she just want to fuck with no strings attached). Something has to screw it up. I just wish it didn't depend on outting two side characters. The dumb rating system from Sage (designed to hamstring those who actually want the fuck buddy) seems not that bad by comparison.

Even if the MC has the option to not tell her, you know it's going to come out eventually. If they are playing tonsil hockey in public, someone else is going to catch them at some point.

I'm cool with that. If they like the thrill of almost getting caught (and they must since they fool around in a public locker room), then eventually it will happen as you said. As long as I have no part in it, or rather DPC doesn't force my MC to tell Sage in order to get her best content, then no problem. If it's just a slight RP gain/loss, then I can deal with that.

Or she found out you’re fucking her (step) Mum.

Sage still loves Chad and she can't forget him . The truth that Chad is gay and he can't be with her in any way should somehow push her towards MС.
I really don't know how. Even if the player runs away from Sage the whole game, she will offer him just to have sex at the party and say that she recently broke up with a guy. It is logical to assume that the relationship should develop without this truth.

The bizarre part is Sage acts like she loves MC as well as Chad. There are mixed signals all over the place. You want love not fuck buddy early on, Sage angry ginger. You choose a fuck buddy route early, Sage now wants love (deeds not words so much) and DPC forces MC/you to say you want the opposite of what a fuck buddy would.

If Sage is still hung up on Chad, I understand that. Fine. If she needs to know about Troy to move on. Fine. Just don't force me to do it. I'll attend the execution of Charles I if required, but I don't want to be the one to drop the axe.

What if Sage/Chad/Troy take an example from Josy/Maya/MC? Ever thought about that?

Sage is emotionally fucked up, she's admitted that directly to the mc.

Love/hate - her emotions towards Chad are raw right now. Anyone who's suffered through the break up of a year+ long relationship knows how fucked that place is (unless you wanted out, then it's yippee!)...

When she thought Chad was cheating on her, she was just angry, she wanted to get a confession and to tear strips of him and the side bitch, then everything could go back to normal. She wasn't looking at ending the relationship, even if the mc was pushing her to.

Even though there was no chemistry ever depicted between Sage and Chad, they were together for long enough that the sudden, abrupt end of the relationship has sent her reeling.

She didn't want a complicated relationship with the mc, sex on the side was all it was meant to be (to make her feel desired, and to get back at Chad), but their chemistry was undeniable (how the fuck can a slide show porn game project such strong chemistry is beyond me, but ya'll know it's there, right?)

So she'd already formed quite a bond with the mc - I wouldn't call it love or anything, but they are fucking close (and I do mean "fucking"). At the same time, she hasn't even got over the break up with Chad, and combine all that with her family's shit emotional handling issues... maybe the mc was right to suggest they cool down for a bit.

All that said, I also hope we aren't forced into exposing Chad/Troy's secret. That'd be a seriously fucked up thing to be forced to do, and there's no taking it back once it's out there (all the other dumb shit the mc has done against our will has been fairly transient).

What if Sage/Chad/Troy take an example from Josy/Maya/MC? Ever thought about that?

Nope, I can definitely say I have not thought of that possibility, and I'm still not thinking of that possibility right now!

Sage and Chad are in their final year of college. Sage, I assume, has already planned their future. Where they will go to work, how they will live together, and so on. And that's probably why the breakup with Chad came as a shock to her. She knew that he was cheating on her and she was ready to forgive for the sake of a planned future. Their couple looks like a couple from rich families.

Will Sage watch free gay porn every night in her bedroom?

I think I like this eye make up more than the long line to the side thing DPC usually does for her.

Also, goddamn but freckled gingers are a beaut. Even if you can't see the full face.

I don't think its love, insomuch as she can't help caring for him. I think thats just part of who she is. Just look at her pursuing Maya despite having almost zero connection to her, just because she's a HOT.
