VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[lukrame]

Sage and Jill are both great.
I'd be in a throuple with them.

 

[felicemastronzo]

I'm still amazed people expected a full blown orgy before the MC attached his strings. This isn't Sage sowing her wild oats, Maya and Josy are really worried about screwing things up by moving too fast.

Also, I completely disagree with you on Lynette's diary. It's obvious her backstory is going to come into play eventually, and it makes sense that the MC would want to learn about her. I'd much rather dedicate 10 minutes to him reading her diary in each episode than sit through Interlude 2: The Perils of Lynette when Season 4 rolls around.

And I still say the MC's reaction here is funny!

they are in a trouple, doing things together should be the norm not the exception. every time they take individual intimate moments they actually move away from the troupe, when Josy says she likes him to call her his girlfriend, that she feels safe with him, she actually moves away from the troupe.
they didn't sleep together even once in season 2.
I don't see what MC's statement has to do with it, it's ok to have sex with each other but not together?

it seems really simplistic to me this idea of "progression" which was the same as why Jill would have sex in the credits, "it's not time yet". after having sex at 3 by "Quinn's order" they should have done it by their own choice as soon as possible just to erase that moment, instead Mc still has to thank Quinn....


about lynette's diary: what backstory would have given interesting as far as MC is concerned? even seeing footage of MC's past 18 birthdays would have been backstory, but it's interesting if it makes you understand something.
as of today we understand from the diary that maybe in some way, Lynette might know or at least be connected to Jill's family, which was something that has been talked about forever.

Bella's flashback is backstory, but what did it show us? that Bella worked in a library... I'm still shocked (if it showed Bella is actually the Sixth Sense child, DPC just killed another LI without the need for a fire)

I don't know but one thing is certain; those things aren't toes of a human being :

I could deal with the granny fingers and her constant eczema issue but this...That's a line you don't cross DPC. At this point, I would rather have Patrick as LI. He already has a prettier smile btw

and let's not forget the time DPC forgot to assemble an ass on Lily and let her go to the party without...

perfectionist....

 

[babaner]

I feel like Jill is extremely naive and sometimes to boring. Which is why I intentionally went for her but then choose Bella just to make her more spicy. Trelolo will make sure that Jill can face the real world and not imaginary fantasy that she has built up.

I will make her a favor by toughening her up .

 

[ffsage]

hmm, I am mostly attracted to her character as well, she's an overall amazing gal; it just so happens that, to me, she's also the most beautiful, along with

Fixed it for you . She's the goddess indeed.

 

[CaptainNugget]

Another day without knowing who i want, bella is just perfect but the age thing, jill is the sweetest girl, and sage is hot but sweet in this last episodes
Who would you choose?

 

[felicemastronzo]

I get the feeling The Madame was some sort of an experiment for DPC, given she's probably the most physically detailed character in the game so far. Whilst I don't care for her scenes at all, I won't deny the level of detail in her renders is head and shoulders above most of the other characters. Maybe DPC modelled her on his wife or something?

we are getting closer and closer...

 

[shazba]

we are getting closer and closer...

Oh fuck! I mean... What I mean is... Get that puss filled old hag out of here right now! Whew... That feels a little better...

herm Satya Nadella earns around 0.000001% of the wages of Microsoft DPC gets 75% ... oh wait communist Sweaden.... so DPC gets 10% of the entire cake and if we compare what microsoft does and earns you must add 3 more zero´s to Satya Nadella part of the cake, talk about being the master baker and living off crumbs!

so comparing both earnings i doubt DPC makes 25 times more work then overall microsoft so when we take into comparison all variables the dude that screws the tire in a factory is 25 times more productive then the master craftsman just due to well organized labour and the leverage of team work and outsourcing! we value the art but the cogs in the machine keep this world moving!

There are two obvious things that play a part here:

1. DPC is pretty much getting all of the cake, apart from shit 2D renders and possibly the beta testers, it's all his to eat.
2. The cake is Pink.

 

[J.A.L.]

I know it's almost 2022 and all, but I think I speak for the more traditional guys when I say we still prefer our girls not to have balls...


Everyone who suggests this always misses the point:

DPC would get nothing out of doing that.

He would have to pay them and he would have to check everything they do, and if he's as pedantic as he comes across, it would just be a headache for him. So why would he do it?

To get the game out faster? Why does he need to do that? The longer this game takes the more money he makes. Now I'm not suggesting he drag his feet (which I don't believe he is doing, I get the impression he actually works long hours on the job), but there is no incentive to speed things up further.

From everything we read, he really likes doing the job. So why palm if off to others?

If you can work full time on something you enjoy, and at the end you can look back and say, "I did that on my own", meanwhile, make a fucking load of cash doing it. Why would you get others to speed it along?

Nope, there's really no reason for him to hurry things up. We just don't want to wait so long, but that's all there is to it.

Yeah, I do strongly prefer girls without balls too. I just made a literal translation of a Spanish expression.

I said something similar to what you are saying in another comment. Patreon´s system induces to long development times. If a dev is receiving a regular income every month from Patreon, why would he want to finish his game? I would appeal to the dev´s responsibility with his patrons. Not make them feel that they are being milked. And I´m pretty sure that, if DPC announces that he has externalized some minor works like secondary renders or some coding tasks, in order of releasing updates faster, even if it´s only a couple of weeks or so, it would be greatly appreciated. Maybe he would get more patrons that way. But I suppose the dude thinks he´s doing well now and there is no reason to change.

But that thing of "I´m perfectionist", "I don´t work well with others" and etc. it´s just DPC bullshitting his patrons.

Who would you choose?

I chose Sage, she is beautiful, caring and funny. But all her shit is very far-fetched, lol. Because it's hard for me to believe that Sage didn't know that literally all of her friends smoked weed and fucked for money. They hung out at all the parties together. Because if Sage really didn't know, she needs to step down as president. This is an incredible manifestation of negligence and frivolity. I hope DPC doesn't slip into an explanation like "she was fixated on Chad," because that explanation is crap.

Do you think that DPC is going to have the balls to create a plotline in which a white straight guy steals her girlfriend to a lesbian? In 2021?

 

[felicemastronzo]

for the way DPC has handled the story so far I find it more hard to see how it could go differently... in chapter 7 the trouple seemed more dead than alive
it's a continuous sneaking around, Josy is specialized in talking bad about Maya when she's absent

DPC wants to keep his patreons happy, so the ending in which the two girls separate will be there for sure, 100%, probably in a way in which MC doesn't look too much like the culprit of this separation (when he clearly is), more certain than the one that the 3 make it through their story, which is very likely, but in my opinion less certain.

I got into the controversy about DPC's progressivism once and it was resolved with the usual barricades, for me BADIK is a porn game and therefore it's not feminist by definition, Maya and Josy's homosexuality is a narrative tool that serves to turn the situation in MC's favour and to have two LIs that even if they aren't are as if they were virgins, and the patreons gloat

She could know that her friends smoke weed. It´s not such a big thing. But I´m pretty sure that she doesn´t know that they are dealing with weed and pills (even coke, at least once), and whoring themselves to students and to her own father. How it benefits her to allow that into the HOTs? She doesn´t need money, her parents are loaded. And you could say "yes, but she doesn´t like to accept help from them". Well, the whole point for Sage is to show her parents that she can be an independent woman and not a preppy like Tybald, for example. I don´t think that being part of a ring of drugs and prostitution would show her parents that she´s and independent woman, but a fucking moron that endangers her future. It would be stupid for DPC to create the plot twist of Sage being part of Quinn´s business.

Anyways, as far as I know, there isn´t a single clue in the game that could indicate that Sage knows something about Quinn´s business. And yes, I suppose the official explanation is Quinn has been cautious about her business, and Sage has been so obsessed with Chad´s situation, following him with binoculars and trying to find a poor idiot to convince to spy him that she has been blind for everything. I would call it "a weak pass", using Rusty's words. But it´s not the only weak pass in BaDIK plotlines or the worst one, at all. Anyway, she´s the girl that didn´t know that her long-term boyfriend is a hardcore gay, so she´s not the most perceptive person in the world

Now Sage has get rid of Chad and has stuck her head out of her own ass. She has taken the reins of the sorority again, taking care of Maya and Mona´s issues, so I suppose the idea of DPC is that she will be more and more aware of the weird things that are happening into the sorority and, eventually, she will discover Quinn´s business. That day, pandemonium will be released at the HOT´s mansion and DPC´s love for drama will be satisfied.

How could you call those 2D renders shit man!? They are the Picassos of modern era!

I bet she know about weed because it's no big deal. About dealing with drugs, how could she know? Only Rio and now Lily knows from HOTs so it is secret so it's possible that she don't know because it's kept from everybody very good.
About fucking for money, I mean they all go to parties and fuck with some guy so how should she know it can be for money? Girls don't discuss it in the middle of the room, like with drugs, everything is kept under the table, they call Quinn restaurant, order sushi and that's it. There is no talk about it, and if it is, they go to Quinn room and noone knows.

Quinn was selling drugs and girls long before Sage's problems with Chad. Lol, girls go to the men's room in the dining room all the time, could Sage have any questions? It's really shitty written. The second moment Sage voluntarily gave all the power to Quinn. Heather even wonders where their membership fees are spent. I
n fact, there are a lot of strange things with Sage.

She accepted Lily, who works as a stripper in Pink Rose and obviously can provide services of an intimate nature for money. Sage knew that there were a lot of sexual tasks in women's Hell Week, for example, blowjob, sex in public and so on. Well, that is, members of the sisterhood can fuck right and left with anyone, but they can't do it for money. This is different.

And where did the weed come from on campus? Who sold it? How will the administration look at it if it finds out? Where does the money come from for weed at all? I think yes, she knows that girls smoke weed and she knows that Quinn sells it to HOTs and DIKs.

We´ll see. It would go against all postmodern political correctness. I know that no screen writer for movies, TV Shows or AAA games in western countries would dare to create a plotline like that one. Otherwise, a lesbian stealing a girl from a man, would be well seen.

BUT... according the poll I created yesterday, everybody (at least here) loves Sage, but Maya not so much... There are only 85 votes, but the tendency has been clear from the beginning: M&J route is the worst valued among the ones of the main Lis. It´s better valued than Lily and Nicole's ones, but I suspect that the reason is those two characters are not main Lis and there isn't a lot of content for them yet.

Even a 26% of the people would like to get rid of Maya in exchange of the return of a really unimportant character like Mona. I suspect that they would like to get rid of her even without the reward of Mona's return as a potential Li Josy, on the other hand, doesn´t generate that kind of repulsion.

I don´t know if that feeling is shared in Patreon (the only place that actually matters), but I suspect that, if DPC creates a path in which Tremolo smoothly operates to steal Josy from Maya´s arms, a lot of people would be glad to follow it with no regrets, and even would enjoy with Maya´s tears.

Why would she care form where weed is and who sells it? There is no problem with campus authorities yet so she don't care. Just like with alcohol it just is there and that's it.
And money for weed comes from selling it, she buys it (for example) for 50 bucks and sells it for 100 boom money and that's it.

if the patrons are not attracted by having 2 girls at the same time instead of 1, I would ask myself some questions.

then the liking of the single LI is the most subjective thing that can exist, I like Josy much less than Maya for example

Honestly, the whole "controversial opinion" bit make me think he's actually DavDR.

Drugs are bad, Dude
