Just to make sure we're on the same page, don't confuse the lovely ladies in this game that come with an off switch, for the women in real life who just want to talk about shit all the time to the point that you want to off yourself. :ROFLMAO:
I mean I love Tony Stark as well, but I know he's not real. No matter how much people try to say Elon Musk is like him.

Looking at Jade.... Looking at Sage....
I am not sure..... I know all the disbelievers out there think Patreon would rule the day and that it couldn't be revealed on the day that DPC pulls the Patreon plug for Steam exclusive contract....
But both those ladies have some most excellent genetics.... and Tybalt frankly seems to be the adopted one.....Probably dyes his hair to look like mommy.

hey guys, did we know how many seasons currently planned? Sucks that we need to wait around a year but it's ok if DPC doesn't abandon the game.

Ok lets face it... nobody knows about the plans DPC has for BeingaDIK and his future life or projects...

DPC wouldnt be the first and not the last DEV who is gonna do more than one project at once, and he wouldnt be the first or last who will not finish what he has started either...

I have to admit it... playing through the whole game again, it is obvious that the game is growing bigger and bigger and bigger... most of the time i wonder if its even possible to do all that work alone (i doubt it, he needs at least some help for some things...)

Each and every Episode is leaving us with more questions than answers... nearly every character in the game seems to have an deep story behind them and many things are connected in some way we just only can speculate about...

After this episode my concerns that this game will be finished someday in a satisfying state are very very big. I just can get my head around all the things going on in this game and how DPC will be capable to pull all that off to a good roundup and finish...

And its now 3 years in the making, if its true that DPC planned about 4 seasons with all around 16 episodes, than the game will go on at least another 3 years, or to be realistic way more than that, cause i dont think we will get more than one major big update a year from now on. The next bigger episode will be out halloween next year, i have no doubt about that. Before that we will get a short interlude, thats it.

The rumors that DPC is a little burned out about the project are nothing new, and he already confirmed it some way too that he wants to do something else...

Maybe the whole Project is taking its toll now and is growing over his head.

What concerns me even more is the money he makes out of it... to be frank, he doesnt need to work anymore with this kind of income. Hes making around 100.000$ a month just with patreon (and thats a very low guess, i would rather say it could be 200.000$) and is already tired of making the game... he just could do nothing anymore, just do some special renders once in a while to keep patreon alive and thats it... and if he is tired of making this game, this will likley gonna happen, and everybody know how often this happend around here, most VNs around here are abondoned. Even some real big ones with high income.

And in the past he wasnt really open about work-progress... everything was very vague, nobody had a clue whats going on... this will not change. (and is one of many reasons why iam not a sub at patreon for more than 1 payment to get the update)

If you ask me, DPC has just opened up to many sidestories... he has to cut them at half at least... dont drop them but make a short and fast closure to many of them within the next big update.

The Strippers, Riona, Camila, Jade, Cathy... they have to go if he wants to get on a good finish-road soon. Its just too much otherwise. Most of the content in the last updates are fucking-around-scenes with side-chicks... i like many of them (riona is my favorite) But there is just less and less time for the main-LIs and the whole Burke-Drug-Prostitute-story. DPC need to make space for that, and if he will not do it early in the next season iam very sure that the game will not find a good finish in the next 10 years. What will mean no finish at all.

Overall, my bet would be placed that BeingaDIK will never be finished... sadly... the project is just gotten to big for one person and DPC is not the kind of DEV who is looking for help. And if he is tired of the project and wants to do something else, with the money he has made so far and is making, there is nothing what could stop him from just abonding the project...

BeingaDIK is my favorite VN, but if you ask me, its to big now to get finished. Kinda like the Game of Thrones books ^^ We will never see another one ;)
I'm pretty skeptical about the future of the project myself, but I wouldn't dramatize it there. We believe there is a lack of information and DPC will tell more either this Friday or next week. We need to wait a bit. I agree that the increasing pace of development raises questions about whether the game will ever be completed at all. If we really go to the schedule of an episode per year, then it takes 8 years to complete, and this is a huge amount of time, By that time anything can happen and I don't think he wants to continue doing this work forever (as he said, he wants to make a game in a space setting). So far, everything looks like everything is going according to plan for me. A new file for the next seasons, hints about the total number of episodes, an interlude that will allow Zoey to link several characters (for example, she may be Vinnie's sister). It's still very early to guess and make assumptions. We need to wait for specifics about the future of the project.

Erm, what 'Others path'?
After the breakfast talk in the DIK mansion I had options to go for either of the main girls (M+J, Sage, Bella, Jill), but there was no 'others' option. Is that really a thing? And if so, any ideas how to unlock that? I've been fucking pretty much everything that moves though...
Sorry I have no idea what the exact trigger for the Others, but it gives me the option on my DIK playthrough where my options were Sage or Others.

No matter which path I take I can't dump Jade.

I am running 0.8.1 with the cheat save hotfix.

i dont know why there is a such a big fuss about the adopted part... what do you guys expect? That the adopted kid will be kicked out of the family once its revealed to everyone or what? And than we will get a orgy with them or what? for what?

It just doesnt matter... adopted or not, Sage is the daughter of both, and tybalt the son... there is nothing more to it... and there will be no sex or anything like that between them.

that sage is adopted was just a way for DPC to hide all the time that she is the daughter of Jade and Stephen to make an impact at some point for the players, thats it.

And its a easy way to explain why sage now wants to help maya.

Thats all about to say to this...

Just face it, adopted means DAUGHTER and SON and thats it... and DPC will not cross that line to make any sexual out of it, it will really not happen, not in a thousand years, and not after that.

YES
Finally someone gets it!!!!!!
No chance this goes as long as some fanboys want it to go, no matter what DPC may have said in the past.
He is getting overwhelmed and burned out.
Story is increasingly complicated.
His answer for complications, based on past performance, is a dramatic and unpleasant ending.
I am giving him the benefit of the doubt, so possibly happy ending (lol) and no more than one or two more episodes.

In general, what do we know about Zoey?
1) She was Tremolo's ex-girlfriend and broke up because she went to California. Interestingly, Josy also wanted to go to California. What if she wanted to go to Zoey and knew her?
2) She was an outcast like MC. She was a hooligan if I remember
3) A friend's older brother bought MC and Zoey cigarettes and beer. But who is this brother? Vinnie is the most suitable for the story. Zoey will thus connect Vinnie, Quinn and MC in the story. Tremolo is finally learning more about the drug business. Maybe Zoey is not going to MC, but to her brother? And being in your hometown passing through and just came to see you?
4) Why did she come and what does she need from MC? So far, it looks like she came on purpose. That is, it was no coincidence. Even if she got pregnant, why would she ask for help from MC? They didn't communicate for six months. I don't want to believe in the theory of her pregnancy from Tremolo.

In the February Q&A, DPC himself said it would be between 14 to 20 episodes, as his season system is 4 episodes at a time, 16 or 20 would be, unless he makes a season 4 of only 2 episodes.

Who else would be her best friend though?
Nobody. Quinn was Sage's daughter and Sage even said herself that her and Quinn understand each other on a different level. All you have to do is follow the story and you'll see it for yourself lol. That person doesn't know what they're talking about or they're trying to troll which is cool.

Just a correction, it wasn't Zoey's brother who was buying, it was a friend's older brother. For this reason Dali thought that friend was Josy and that she was talking about Tommy.

yeah sorry but DPC tell a lot of things to his audience every now and than... and he said btw he wants to do a sci-fi novel and medival novel too... truth to be told, everybody dies, nobody lives forever. If he wants to do 14-20 episodes on being a dik, this will at least take another 6-8 years ant this point. come on, nope not gonna happen. And in february there wasnt even episode 7 out, and since than there was a lot of talk about other rpojects going on and he admitted to be a bit tired of the whole project too...

The signs are more than obvious that he cant go on like this and every episode getting bigger than the one before... its sad, and i wish this wasnt the case, but thats just reality.

At this point of the game there would be a perfect chance to cut many little sidestories short to going on a road to a good round up and multiple endings, and we all know that in DPCs Case there will be good and bad endings for every girl...

i sincerly hope that he has a good plan for the future and is able to let the story naturaly progress without overdoing things so we will get a good ending with all the maingirls and 1-2 sidegirls (like quinn)

But cant believe that he will work on that game the next 6 or way more years, really not.

No reason for MC to call Josy "a friend" and Tommy her older brother, if they were already introduced into the Story. Doesn't sound like this leads anywhere.

Since you are speculating, so will I, if someone with 10k patrons says he will do 14-20 episodes, why having 16k now would he finish it sooner?
Besides, he himself said that he really enjoyed the development of episode 8, I don't see him wanting to finish Badik quickly.
