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

^ Not that the end of Acting Lessons didn't hit me pretty hard...

People don´t want to get fond of a character to see her die meaningless.

people were fond of meghan? maya fans, right? should've named her charcoal. lean on that lighter fluid.

Not if the house where Lynette and her friends are photographed is her family home.
In her diary she states she can't still live in her home because her father intends to sell it.

OK, now I understand you. Lynette´s family were living in the newer house, and sold them to the Royces to move to the older mansion. Yes, that´s possible.

Or just, one of the two friends of Lynette in that photo (probably the brunette one) is a Royce and that´s her house.

Oooh conspiracy theories on the plot?

MC and Tommy look a little bit alike (in a story with so many different looking characters) ... so maybe they are related? Tommy's family obviously from somewhere near MC's family home (because Josy step sister etc).

If you look at the physical resemblance of the characters, Maya is not Derek´s twin sister (they don't even look the same race), Neil is the father of Derek and John Boy, Tommy is Tremolo´s evil twin, and Jill is a Kardashian... I don´t know where that train of thoughts can carry us...

Maybe a cross between a Kardashian and a hyena, that smile. Turns my blood to icewater just thinking about it

Heh... Congrats on being on GOG!

 

[Heimeropen]

didn't think I'd see an adult game on GOG. Badik being the 1st is quite fitting I'd say. The fact that people still see CDPR as some gaming industry saviors even after cyberpunk is incredibly funny to me. Even more so,when you read the comments and see people admit they played it on steam but somehow wants to keep GOG "pure".I like CDPR for the Witcher series but people should seriously realize they are a normal company lol

The first Adult (+18) game on GOG is, believe it or not, EVENICLE!

 

[Olsens.M]

Oh OFT. I agree with you about the choice of Steve Major. I have some theories and speculation about it, but nothing concrete. This decision is obviously so trivial and insignificant as portrayed by DPC that probably exactly what Isabella once told the MC in EP2 applies. Reverse Pschyology.

DPC himself has written in such a way that seemingly unimportant decisions have no impact at first, but become important later. As you correctly note, Steven has a haircut of 50. Quinn refers to Josy's dance in EP5 as a 70s dance. Neil and Lynette's story takes place in the late 90s, and the calendar on Maya's closet shows us 2017 and 2020, which are the 10s and 20s of the 21st century.

1950: Grandfather or grandmother
1970: father or mother
1990: Josy, Maya, Sage, Jill, Tommy, Rusty, MC, etc.
2017-2020: presence of Josy and MC working in the store.

Now the only question is why Steve is filling up the applesauce in aisle 9.

The question I ask myself is how long has the tradition of cum petition been around? I assume this tradition predates the existence of the DIKs. That could then explain the applesauce over decades.
Steve, the little freak, knows quite a bit about B&R. Did he maybe go to this college once? We don't know his age, so it's possible. Maybe he once had to prove himself on a cum-petition? Possible. But now we know that this is probably the first time the HOT's have done such a cum petition of EP2. Accordingly, Steve's will have had a Pink Rose Girl on his lap during his cum petition. Who's got a kid again?

This has everything to do with apples. But more on that in another post, because otherwise I'd go beyond the scope.

My mc is covered.

The problem is that most of people, when they see "Adult VN" they automatically think about sex only without even care about the plot or the story. That is why most of games are of a boy who lives with his mother/stepmom/landllady or whatever and fucks her, his sisters and his friends. That shit is annoying as fuck. I don't want to fuck my family over and over again.
It is because of poeple who criticize DPC that all other novels are the same. Empty and with some sexual graphics that won't even make sense to the story. If I want that, I can just watch some porn on pornhub.

Guys, Do you know if 8.2 is the last patch or if we are still getting patches after this? I could not find an announcment with the patch release here.

I have not even run into trouble once even playing 0.8.0 ... patching to 0.8.1 only made Sage blowjob vanish from the rewards screen but that's about it... it's just a fine tune process anyways but as it would seem a .2 fix patch is the final one... or not

I had the below issue.
Fixed an issue where asking the Pink Rose girls for a picture required permanent DIK affinity as opposed to DIK affinity.

And I havent even noticed the Sage one until it said that it got pached, but I had that too.

DPC killed the virtual girlfriend of a lot of people.

Only the virtual girlfriend of the greedy people.

But why should he stay if people were being dickheads to him? I mean why the fuck would you stay? He has his own Discord where he can live in a happy bubble, have his patrons lick his ass while he animates Madame scenes? If that's what he wants, while raking in 50-100K a month, good fucking luck to him.

 

[kyrlian]

About hanging here with us, I´m pretty sure that he enters in this tread from time to time. But I understand that he doesn´t want to interact with us. He doesn´t need it anymore.

I don't think he doesn't need it, he is just too busy and has his own community now. But he reads the thread for sure, so hello Dr.!!

btw Please get rid of the syringe scene with Tommy and Quinn, 'no coke' but hell yeah heroin wooo.... makes no sense and is too dark. Everybody makes mistakes. I understand it's not that easy, but now's the time to fix small plot holes.

Oh, and please fix the end of the recital scene, after that beautiful scene Jill deserves a standing ovation for one minute straight, not some disjointed fx from the local bar crowd clapping to a bad joke. Don't do it for me, do it for her man, I've been in her place too and the audience reaction is what makes musicians love to play live, that will elevate the scene from 9.9 to 10.

And remember that we love you.

 

[J.A.L.]

Actually, I don´t remember acting lessons. I know that one or two of the girls that lived with the MC were killed by a psycho or something, out of the blue.

Probably because it makes him look like a douche. Money is nice, but if DPC thinks it's going to fill up that hole where his self-respect should be he's sadly delusional.

 

[DavDR]

Now you could say the same about Bella...

Unfortunately, I'm beginning to think that Bella is just one big troll from DPC and that the library scene and locked room will amount to nothing.

That's no way to treat KRJ's Mom!

 

[BorgiaBou]

my theory about about Bella is that Bella is not a real librarian or a teacher, she is more like an undercover cop/CIA who is undercover to investigating (maybe) Stephen Burke or drug dealing in B&R campus (or maybe both related), this drug dealer which is related to the death of her late husband (or still missing, because his death body not found), and this make her more determined to captured the big boss of this drug dealer, but then she stumble upon MC and make her feel how to be in love again which will also jeopardize her undercover....

Wut?

 

[J.A.L.]

Let´s imagine that Quinn ends up in jail or killed by Vinnie or Buddy, if the player is not able to adopt the correct decisions about her. It would be hard, a fucking drama, but it´s what DPC has been building during all the story. Good writing.

Now imagine that the melancholic girl that fucks two guys during the party in the last update and buys pills to Riona, suddenly stabs Quinn with a knife when she´s kissing Tremolo in the park, because it turns out that she´s a psycho madly in love with Tremolo but too shy to say something to him, and kills Quinn out of jealousy... You could say that it´s what psychos do, they are unpredictable, and get triggered by random things... But nobody knows that the girl is a psycho, that there were a danger in kissing Quinn, or even that this story actually was about a psycho... Bad writing.

That was, If memory serves me right, what happened with Acting Lessons.

 

[shazba]

Now you could say the same about Bella...

And we have said the same about bella! But we've been kinda assured it's not going down that path this time...

Probably because it makes him look like a douche. Money is nice, but if DPC thinks it's going to fill up that hole where his self-respect should be he's sadly delusional.

A douche to who though? A bunch of guys that would normally just be jacking off while they play these games? Then suddenly they get feelings for some pixels and then shit goes south? Really, it's a fucking joke that people got so worked up. Sure, it hits you hard at first, but then you get over it. And if they can't get over it, don't blame DPC, go see a shrink...

Nah, I love a game, books and movies that fuck with me; unexpected betrayals, deaths, twists and turns.

Unfortunately, I'm beginning to think that Bella is just one big troll from DPC and that the library scene and locked room will amount to nothing.

That's no way to treat KRJ's Mom!

I will fucking bin my white knight armor if it comes that! But at the same time, so many theories have been floated here, that when it comes out that he died, or they lost a kid, or some other shit that has been bandied about here, we'll be like, yeah, big deal.

Well Riona's stalker was pretty much like that, except he was mostly harmless, and I haven't seen anyone lamenting that plot "twist"...
