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

[Meushi]

Stupid question, do you have to DL 8.2 first from 8.0 for new content or is 8.2 just a patch update from 8.0?
Since 8.2 is 19.6GB and the patch is only 55mb

As should be obvious from the file size, the v0.8.2 Update Patch is just bug-fixes for v0.8. So if you've played through v0.8, you don't need to play 0.8.2. Transfer saves made in 0.8 can be imported into the upcoming Interlude.

As we learned in Episode 8, the "main girls" in BaDIK were the ones the MC could choose to date during the crossroads.

We didn't learn that in Episode 8, DPC has consistently referred to the same 5 main girls in all his communications, including the Ep 1-4 walkthrough. Quinn isn't a LI, Zoey won't be one either.



I expect Zoey's introduction will simply be a new source of drama, DPC's raison d'etre. He's mostly resolved the Chad drama, needs a new source of histrionics to fill the void.

Should the devs make a threesome route for them? Or are they better off in their own separate monogamous routes?

No, doesn't fit with their characterization at all. Bella flat out tells the MC she won't continue the relationship if he's seeing Jill, and Jill's reaction to discovering MC has an intimate relationship with Bella should make it clear there's no chance. Plus the whole point of v0.8 was to narrow the available romantic options in a given playthrough, the antithesis of a new polyamourous relationship with two main girls.

Those of us who played DPCs previous game count ourselves lucky we still have the option of the Josy/Maya triangle, let's not get greedy.

Only one ambiguous thing indicates there’s anything between Jill and Bella and I really don’t like it’s existence because it’s contrary to everything else the characters have said and done.

It didn't indicate anything between Jill and Bella, that was just baseless theory crafting. We still don't know what they were arguing about, though probably related to whatever caused James to leave.

 

[Nerttu]

you have to click some buckets BEFORE speaking with Jill at the pool, if I remember correct

And you obviously have to stay at Bella's for that

Sorry, my bad !!!! The fens painting was ep.5, so at what point in ep. 6 are you at Bella ?????

Edit: I found that "Paint Game" at ep.6 !!!! It wasn`t a PAINT GAME.....it was CLEANING GAME imho, because it hapends, when MC and Bella are CLEANING MCs place and it starts by it self !!!!!!!!

 

[♂Brout&Minou♀]

I thought so allso, but I DID the fens painting game and it ONLY opens a reward at MISC category (Envy at water no.2) !!!!!!???????

I can't remember which one it was, but yeah it was a miscellaneous reward

 

[ename144]

Guys, I need help !!!!! What is the Painting Game at Bellas rewards in chapter 6 ????? I replayed chapter 6 and there is no painting game, am I blind, stupid or what ??????

The painting mini-game in Episode 6 is when the MC cleans up his room in the DIK mansion, and will happen automatically (assuming you have mini-games turned on).

There is also an optional painting mini-game in Episode 5 at Bella's house. To get it, you need to click on the paint cans near Jill before clicking on Jill to end the free roam.

If you've had breakfast with Bella and Jill you've missed the chance to paint Bella's fence.

We didn't learn that in Episode 8, DPC has consistently referred to the same 5 main girls in all his communications, including the Ep 1-4 walkthrough. Quinn isn't a LI, Zoey won't be one either.

I'm well aware of the walkthroughs, but what does being a "main girl" mean? We tend to assume it means they are the ones with an endgame, but that's just a guess on our part. Episode 8 was the first time we saw the main girls do something mechanically that someone like Quinn couldn't (though she comes close): the MC can choose them at the crossroad.

My point is that it's entirely possible the crossroad is the reason the main girls are "main." In which case it could be that by the time we reach Season 4 there will be a new selection of girls that are possible end choices; if so, there's every reason to think girls like Quinn and Zoey could be on that list. I'm not saying it's guaranteed to happen, just that it's a logical possibility we shouldn't overlook simply because Quinn isn't listed as a "main" girl. DPC's walkthroughs frequently omit important information about future choices, after all.

It didn't indicate anything between Jill and Bella, that was just baseless theory crafting. We still don't know what they were arguing about, though probably related to whatever caused James to leave.

To be fair, the the Episode 5 conversation that is clearly intended to be sexually suggestive. IMHO, trying that hard to be suggestive indicates DPC is trying to mislead us and the eventual explanation will be asexual (at least between Jill and Bella). But that take is just as theoretical as saying the two had an affair. I think the evidence supports it, but we can't prove either at this time.

I just thought 8.2 was more to the story, or is it just one big bug-fix for entire game then 8.2 patch is catching what wasn't caught before

 

[Sym3567]

guys whens the next update?

No, DPC doesn't release story-based content in drips and drabs like that. He drops entire episodes with a distinct story arc and events. The .x follow ups are always just bug fixes.

 

[Nerttu]

Can anyone tell me, what is DS_Store file, provided at download saves section (Ep. 9 saves) and where to put it ??????

 

[Oliver Wendell Homely]

guys whens the next update?

There will be an interlude between season 2 and 3 that will drop at the end of next week. Then I would expect episode 9 to come probably mid to late summer, perhaps August.

You all worry way too much about Zoey. Elena, Catrin, Jamie and the MC have told us all what will happen.

When the MC decides on a LI in EP8, the choice is already made. The MC already knows which girl his heart belongs to. What did Elena say. She said that there can be trouble if the MC is not sure. To what extent the LI's will accept Zoey as the MC's friend remains to be seen. But even there I don't see a problem as long as the player (MC) stays true to himself.

Once all the LI's have been rejected, Zoey will be presented to the MC as an alternative. After all, she is his ex-girlfriend. But that's already being rubbed in Catrin's face. Catrin still hangs out with her ex-boyfriend and then decides to get back together with her ex-boyfriend. So just put in the MC for Catrin.

What do Jamie and the MC tell us in EP8? That it might be difficult for the MC when his ex-girlfriend lives nearby and he meets her at parties. This is going to be a Halloween. Imagine they play the game at the Halloween party, which is what Sage, Quinn taught the MC. Does the MC recognize his blindfolded ex-girlfriend? What did Quinn say again? If the MC recognizes who kissed or licked him, he gets to make out with the girl. That's going to be fun. Of course, I don't know if it would be as funny if Zoey later had a boyfriend at DIK and then always did a Walk of Shame. Although, I wouldn't care as long as my MC has his Josy and Maya. So no problem with that.

In EP6, the MC thinks to himself why women become friends with each other even though they're into the same guy. So in my case Josy/Maya would become friends with Zoey.

As you can see, DPC has already given us a lot of information about Zoey, about what is to come with her.

It's DPC, meaning there is not a snowball chance in hell it will go over as smoothly as you dream it up, bro. And there is one thing you always forget. MC and Zoey never broke up, she left, he said to Bella at the Cafeteria how that made him realise just how much he loved her. And that happend what ? 6 Months ago + the time and B&B... yea I don't think DPC dedicates an Interlope to Zoey, just for her to become "friends" with your LI ! And do you re-al-ly think its a coincidence, that Zoey conviently pops back up into MC's life right after MC had to make that choice ? I would be baffled if that whole thing wont be the lovey-dovey problem of the 2nd half, with Vinnie beeing the none lovey dovey storyline. But it will be interesting to see, just tighten your hatches bruh, BFF+GF combos are the 0.1% of 0.1%, a storm is coming ...

You should read correctly. Zoey left. That's right. But Zoey and the MC were still in touch via social media apps. Who knows for how long? But then Zoey told the MC that she had a new boyfriend. At the latest, Zoey ended the relationship with the MC. That was six months ago.

I suspect that Zoey rediscovered her feelings for the MC because of a very special event. The event is the video of the concert. As written, it's just a guess. But did you notice that the MC plays different songs on his guitar for the girls?

For Isabella, Jill and Maya it is the same song. The favorite song he knows from the radio. The MC once told Jill that he also composed his own songs. The song for Josy is different and the song that the MC plays first and alone at the concert is also different.

In the last preview of the interlude, we see a Zoey resting her head lovingly on the MC's shoulder. The MC plays the guitar for her. Was perhaps the song from the concert the song of Zoey and the MC. If so, it's no wonder Zoey thinks of her MC again through the video.

Oh well. One should not compare BaDik with AL. DPC itself has written that BaDIK will not be as dark as Al.

SO DON'T SPREAD PANIC.

 

[sixart]

If he keeps this up...

... you won't get to see many things not just this Interlude

SO DON'T SPREAD PANIC.

Words to live by ! You could listen to you own advise from time to time... Or maybe not

 

[Casiope]

Episode 9 is not yet released so those saves are of no use today.

You are 100% correct that they msg'd on socials and that she had a BF, but ... if you were back in town after lets call it half a year and you wanna meet up again with your bestie, would you shoot him a msg "Yo, I'm back,let's hang" ? I mean, I most certainly would. But what did she do ? Knowing MC is at college and not home, she went to his dad to get the lay of the land for the incoming, no bra-full frontal, no prisoners "Ima gonna get my man back, and that's the bottom line." attack. ( YES, she does sound like Steve Austin and you'll see Zoey 3.16 trending all over the inet post friday ! )

But all things considered, maybe your MC can sweet talk Maya, Josy and Zoey into a 4-way relationship, I mean whats one more ?

 

[mightybored]

MC doesn't have any STDs, because DPC won't let it happen

The one person we know for sure has one (Arieth), we can't bang even if MC tries to with all his dick heart.

5 months!? fuck yeah! Now you're talking. Unlikely but I'd love it if DPC got back to less than 6 months for development. Maybe this Interlude reminded DPC what season 1 was like and that you don't have to have a mega-production to make a good chapter with great content. Wishful thinking on my part, but I believe Interlude gave DPC a chance to take it easy and recover. Not quite a full vacation because he was still working, but at least he wasn't destroying himself.

Maybe Neil's residence is on the way to B&R. Zoey stops by Neil's place as a precaution to see if the MC has a new girlfriend. Only Neil doesn't know about it, which is the problem.
