It is said 19 GB, you need 40 GB for the gl AND the decompress.Wtf, the current game is like 14GB unzipped and compressed.
Its going to be 40GB large?
Mm all I can do is just imagine the Bella scene
2 x 19 = 38 that's why but the game isn't 40 GB ...yet
It's because she's so god damned expensive that players need a chance to earn more money to pay for her "services". Is it even possible to get all her scenes in one go?Now that's funny. I didn't even know you could visit her via the phone. I wonder why?

And you won't - because that's not a bug, he intentionally made that change an episode or two prior. You can hide the UI by simply hitting 'h'. Admittedly, not that keen on it myself, but it was no accident.
No, it's going to be 19GB once unzipped.. He said you'd need roughly 40GB to download and extract it. Factor in the initial download size, the temporary folder used by windows when extracting, and final file placement.
How big it all gets after you UnRen the whole thing, that'll be interesting.

You can fuck Maya, Josy or Quinn for free, imagine having those dead routes and the consolation is sucking the varicose veins from Madame's tits.Now that's funny. I didn't even know you could visit her via the phone. I wonder why?

I think that the November 5th release date is out of question right now, unless beta testing goes miraculously and there are no issues to be fixed. But to be honest, it sounds impossible right now.
I'm still optimistic for the November 12th release date though and hopefully when I come back from work next Friday, the update will be here.

I too had the same thoughts about a Camilla involvement when I replayed it. I still cannot understand who's the blood in the library, I guess there could have been a fight involving Vinny and Nick (the only one that we know was there and knows about the blood). I could no see anybody with bandages or scratches.

You think you know about hypocrisy bro? I'll tell you about hypocrisy. I wanna turn innocent Jill into a hardcore HOT party girl, and at the same time I wanna turn badass bitch Quinn into an innocent barefooted housewife with a fetish for handholding and missionary for the sole purpose of procreationWell that's just, like, your opinion man.
It's funny how some of you guys get your panties in a bunch about Sage going soft and at the same time get a semi about Quinn developing feelings for MC. Hypocritical much?
But okay whatevs, more ginger goodness for me I guess. Enjoy your drug peddling prostitution ring mom.
Why can't I just be happy with how they are now, why do I need to change them into the other? The duality of man.We do enjoy our queen as she is though, thank you

You must be registered to see the links
Beta testing and proofreading have just started.
As soon as I know a little bit more, I can set a release date.
I'm aiming for a November release for the $25 tier, and that's all I can say at the moment.
If you base your pledge on the release date, please wait until the release date is final.
I know that everyone is excited; you should be, and I am too.
Please, be patient with us during this final phase, and the update will come faster.
Important information regarding patching
I will explain in the section below why I cannot supply a patch for this update.
What this means for v0.8.0 is that everyone will have to download the full game this time.
I haven't forgotten about the $5 patrons waiting for the patch. Anyone who pledges $5 in December 2021 and has pledged at least $15 total on Patreon during this year will get a DM with the links to the full update two weeks after release.
However, there won't be a post for any patch, and I will temporarily remove the $5 tier patch reward on release. When the first patch of Season 3 becomes available, this tier reward will return.
Detailed information
Now, why won't a patch be available?
To make a long story short, I have upgraded Ren'Py to the latest version to enable 64-bit Windows. The upgrade causes patching to be a nightmare, even for an above-average PC user, so I opted out of it this time.
The Ren'Py upgrade made the game run much smoother and become more responsive than before. When I saw the results, it was worth spending extra time to fix the deprecated functionality and issues that came from upgrading. This upgrade will most likely eliminate all weird out-of-memory bugs and remove most lag from your game.
All in all, you will notice the positive effects of upgrading the Ren'Py version. The only downside to upgrading the game to 64-bit is that 32-bit systems aren't supported anymore. Examples of 32-bit OS that won't be supported are Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows XP. That's the future for all Ren'Py games, not just Being a DIK.
Aside from upgrading Ren'Py, I have tested my save transfer system on Steam and tested a temporary new season 3 binary for Steam as well. It all went smoothly, and I am confident that my chosen way to continue developing the game will be feasible for Patreon and Steam.
So, that's very good news for the Being a DIK development in general.
What will happen now?
Testers and proofreader will get the time they need to test and play. I will fix any bugs and typos they find.
This update is big - something they all commented on after their first playthrough - and it will require several playthroughs to explore fully. When they test, they are also working against a checklist that I provide with tasks that need to be tested.
Testing will also cover earlier episodes to find any bugs from the Ren'Py upgrade.
We are working our hardest, but because of the Ren'Py upgrade and the size of the game, there might be new bugs we missed during testing; as always, I appreciate any bug reports players send my way.
Meanwhile, I will perform additional tests and continue to polish the game.
I will also prepare for the distribution of the Patreon version.
What can you as a player do to prepare?
You can ensure that your saves are up to date and that you have saved at the end of the episode 7 update, where the game tells you to save. Yes, your old saves will work without any issues as long as you did this.
You can make sure that you have enough disk space for the update.
The game will be approximately 19 GB when you extract it, meaning that you will need at least 40 GB of free disk space to download the game and extract it.
If you have any questions regarding all of this, I will do my best to answer you in the comment section below.
I apologize for any confusion; I tried my best to make this long text easy to understand.

Ok, there's something seriously fucking off here.
We've got boop posting me style responses to multiple posts; goldy posting deep and meaningful character analysis; Osty praising him...
Maybe you guys are new and don't know how things operate around here, but we're just weeks, maybe days away from a release, it's supposed to be fucking bedlam right now, people should be posting inane, debunked theories, guys should be at each other's throats, it's meant to be total carnage.
Please, step up your game people.
THIS is the kind of thing that gets caught in my "scan trap" as I'm lightning-scrolling by and makes it all worthwhile
