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

Could someone recap the discussions going on in this thread? I can't read another 169 Pages to catch up

Reading these last pages, I think the latest discussion is about Maya - In a negative way of course

There was a lot of complainings about ep 8 ending, some claim that outcome has sense only on some paths.
Some arguments about Zoey and the new interlude. Can't help you more couse i'am not exited about that.
Some arguments about how long it will take to end the game, some people claim that DPC is tired and should look for a closure.
The usual lovely claims that DPC is a shitty writer.
And a lot of Maya. Seems she is ugly, lesbian, cliche, helpless, damsell in distress, selfish, rapist, manipulative, cheater, she doesn't love the MC, probably communist, porn actress, slut, but she will never be a porn actress.

actually no, we were talking about Josy mainly...
but some people particularly miss the subject of Maya.

So... you are saying that nothing has changed at all in this thread?!

Also, be ready for simp-full texts

It's all about how great Quinn is, her threesome with Sage being by far the best scene in this entire story.

Also taking her home for Thanksgiving in episode 10, what a wonderful experience that would be for her, just make sure not to serve any broccoli with the Turkey.

The name was very long, when I tried to put it, it only let me write AchedCroissa lol

Why didn't you use just Croissant then? So you can have Jill tell you "Put it inside me, Croissant. It's bigger than I remember."

The thing with Maya screenshots is it just further proves the point of her ugliness.

You need to dig deep to find renders of Sage or Quinn looking ugly, it's the opposite for poor Maya.

Don't remind me. Every time I remember her toes and I want to wash my eyes with acid.

Other ones are better written, like Quinn.

Quinn's as 1 dimensional as tybalt. Her character is a just a self centered bitch. She'll hurt anyone including her so called friends if it helps her. She is no way complex.

I think he is at a perfect level in terms of writing, he doesn't need to get better (it's not like the game has to get nominated or something unless there ARE awards and I completely missed that). Anyway, the game has great characters, great story, great setting and great dialogues... it's just a fun and carefree story.

Well kindda did. Untill episode 8 Maya haters dissapeared. Some were crying... i mean saying that they will not play the game anymore, only for porn. But ep 8 released started with a huge backlash against the episode, then some guys appeared again and start bashing both the game and Maya. We were kinda tired so eventually they got everyone exausted. They got to that point were from 200 users only 20 remaining, most of them Maya haters.

 

[DavDR]

It was the first name that popped in my mind

I'm glad you enjoy it. But as I've said before BaDIK is a prominent game in the medium and it needs to be held to a high standard, so that we can have good games. There are also parts of the game, like the Student loan debacle or Tybalt's blackmail plot, that need to be ridiculed into oblivion so that other Dev's would be embarrassed to put such corny shit out on the market.

And you think people should guide themselfs for your authorized opinions and not for the example of the lame idiot who has 16 K patreons and growing?
You think its in the best interest for adult game developers to take you as an authority in this subject?

It´s all summarized in this poll. Everybody loves Sage, less that a 25% of the people gives a shit about Maya as a Li, even less people as a friend. As simple as that.

it's interesting to see how immensely popular josy is compared to maya, kind of like in the game.

I also find it funny how maya is a feminist but has no female friend outside of josy & sage taking pity on her, while josy is popular with the girls despite not being a feminist, lol.

 

[Overfoxed]

When I opened this thread up again I was not expecting to see comparisons being drawn between the game and the works of Alfred Hitchcock and Charles Dickens. Kudos Internet, you can still surprise me.

 

[dalli_x]

You know what, I myself will take another argument over the Holodomor and the Crimea issue, as long as that means this thread talks for once about something it isn't Maya.

The joke is that you always talk about what interests you, whether positive or negative.

Now some will again rack their brains.

Online polls are worthless garbage though. You can spoof your ip to spam a poll. You don't get a quality random sample in an online poll. So the results are fucking meaningless.

ib4 I get accused of being a maya fanboy, again.

I agree, it can be easily manipulated but at the same time who would spoof IP to do this on a pool where there is like 100 votes? It's not something big with few hundreds or thousands votes to mess around with.

You'd be shocked. Clearly you've never spent time on a politics forum.

Yea and this is not politics forum, it's avn forum, Big difference.
And still who would care to do this? It's just waste of time on stupid thing.

That would be me

The Hitchcock comment was a just a joke regarding all those discussions regarding DPC's writing.

Don't worry I got that you were just kidding, haha. Still gave me a chuckle.

 

[DavDR]

Oh yeah, criticism shouldn't be a problem.
But at the end of the day the game's story is the college life of party, sex, love and heartbreak of the MC... it's not a "serious" or dark story even though the subject of drugs and other stuff is presented in it. I see it as a fun and carefree story as I said on another comment.

That's why if a part of the story is not that well written or something, I don't get bothered by it, though is perfectly fine if other people do. It's just that there is some days where the negativity is very heavy on the thread.

Yeah, it should be a College Life story but as usual DPC tries to take it down more serious paths. And though I'm not accusing you, there are fans of the LI's and the game who will use the serious aspects of the game to argue their point and then turn around and say it's just a college game.
