What do you mean? He killed Palpatin in the last Star Wars movie Return of the Jedi. There was nothing after that. He is the chosen one. Not some overpowered bitch.He murdered hundreds of kids so his sacrifice was a bit of a death bed confession and didn't even matter canonically![]()
Lol Tremelo has like 3 "serious" girlfriend's being Maya, Josey and Jill and Tommy I wouldn't even say Heather is his girlfriend cause clearly she's just a piece of ass to him.With all the focus on the mc baulking at being the "rebound guy", a great opportunity was missed:

You know why JB has let himself go? Because he's already got a serious girl. The rest of the DIKs still need to keep up appearances 'cause they are single, even Tommy since he's looking to trade up.
A chance? Yes. Beta testing is on going now. That said I think it’s more likely he’ll announce on the 12th the release is coming on the 19th. (Or the 19th for the 26th).Are there still chances that episode 8 will be released on Friday 12th?
I don't think Tommy would take that lightly.. Im sure he already hates the fact that Tremelo has been a dik for a minute and he's already seen as a leader..plus Tremelo might be the greatest Dik of all time depending on the choices we made, I know for a fact my MC is a G.O.A.T Dik lol.I wonder if Rusty told Tommy that MC has access to the laptop.
Ever since you came here , or showed up here, this is the first sensible comment you madeWhat do you mean? He killed Palpatin in the last Star Wars movie Return of the Jedi. There was nothing after that. He is the chosen one. Not some overpowered bitch.
It's on betatesting, no official release date yet.Any news about when's episode 8 gonna be realesed?
Actually that wouldn't be a bad way to get into Elena pants.. Not sure if JB would be down tho seeing that it's MMf while with Arieth it was FFM and Tremelo is a fellow Dik.. Although there was a scene where JB asked Tremelo if he finds Elena attractive and we could either say yes or no, that could play into the three ways possibility.They already had a 3some with Arieth ... maybe they'll have one with MC
I won't keep my hopes to high on this one but I'd like to see that![]()
There are stains of blood in the chair in the library, when you look around to search for the stolen laptop. There is a post from months ago with all the images. Nick seems worried that MC is going to notice them.Wait.... what blood!?
Yeah, I think it’s building up to a threesome. I’d personally find it hot if it ended up being a couple swap, but I know some people are very sensitive about feeling cucked so I doubt this will happenActually that wouldn't be a bad way to get into Elena pants..

Seeing Sage get wrecked like that got me to half-mast.With all the focus on the mc baulking at being the "rebound guy", a great opportunity was missed:

Great news! I hope that information about the release date will appear this week. But the DPC provided a lot of technical information, so it is possible that the game will be released on November 26. But I still believe that it will happen on November 19th!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.

On one hand, MC will definitely get a chance to bang Elena at some point as any other attractive girl in the game, that's a given. On the other, a threesome with JB? I don't think this game will feature any real group sex scenes involving other dudes, ever. So yeah, path into Elena's panties is a tricky one. At least we've seen that MC was provided with options of not giving a shit about bro/DIK code (all the credit for himself/telling Heather about +3). That's promising.digging Elena's free spirit, too; hope we get a scene with her in later episode and John boy be okay with it.
In fairness this will be as big as 1-8 gets. 9+ will be a separate downloadAs i expected, i will have to wait a few days after the release for download. No fucking chance i dl 19 GB in the release day, even if my poor internet been in good mood. Hopefuly i will download the bug fix version. Fuck, 19 GB and the game is not even close to finish, probaly
