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

[TimHawk]

Well if you read my comments I already said that I didn't finish it and that I was deleting it. And protect him from what her dumping him? That just sounds so caring of her .

Jeez you really must've skipped 99% of the interlude.

The short Version : Zoey & MC = BFF's who grew up together, one day they added having sex to their friendship, so they became BFFwB's, they were NOT a couple.

When Zoey leaves, the MC realises just how much he loves her.

When Zoey is away, she realises that nothing is more important in her life than the MC, so she decides to move back home.

That's the setup for Season 3.

That, right there, is a nutshell inside a nutshell!

 

[TimHawk]

Definitely.

Most of all, she definitely isn't a smart person. She simply is an uncultured and unskilled young woman who will always make the wrong choice in her life.

Anyway, I think a lot of people here still haven't realized what the game's main message is.

Guys, the point in BaDIK is that choices have consequences, bad choices have bad consequences, very bad choices have very bad consequences.

You saw what happened to Mona. You saw what happened to Cathy. You can bet it won't end well for everybody.

Dude . Young people change all the friggin time, thats what beeing young is all about. You fuck up, you learn from it and dont make the same mistake twice.

Second, you should really play the game again, and find a new main message.

NOTHING happened to Mona, SHE decided to pack her bags and leave.

NOTHING happened to Cathy, SHE decided to move on and was even excited about it.

The only bad decision, with a follow up bad consequence so far is Chad attacking the MC.

 

[AngelsAfterDark]

I hope playing too many of these games doesn't make players think that girls' lives should revolve around the player...

Unfortunately that seems to be the case. like pornography some AVNS fuck people minds up and change the way they perceive things. I could give a list honestly but I'm sure everyone already knows in which way these games fucks with people's perception of real life.

And I agree Zoey was not selfish for leaving, she wanted Tremolo to join her he couldn't and she respected that but she is her own person with her own life and she did what she thought was best for her there's nothing wrong with that.
And you know it's rather stupid to complain about Zoey "not caring" when Tremolo himself didn't show much fucks given about Zoey's absence. He moved on, fell for Josy and a lot of other girls (something Zoey didn't even do, she never fucked around or got involved with any other guys other than Tremolo) meanwhile T-man's been banging around and throughout the entire game he only mentioned Zoey once when Bella asked him about his past but other than that he continued living his best life. So why is Zoey at fault for doing the same? I'm telling you man these games are seriously fucking with people's heads.

Yep and I'm going to finish playing it and still miss 99% of it again.

Actually they were a couple. In the phone profile of Zoey it says" "Zoey... My first best friend who turned into my girlfriend briefly before leaving for San Diego to become a surfer."

I think the only reason she didn't sleep with anyone else is so DPC can avoid the NTR rantings that could come from it. That's probably why he added a completely random sex scene that didn't involve her, just so it wasn't a wall of text with no lewd scenes.

I don't recall how long she was there in the interlude but just because it's not shown doesn't mean it never happened. There is no way of knowing what she was up to off screen the whole time she was gone, people just assume she never slept with anyone but the MC. I don't recall it ever being said that is the case.

The MC does talk about it with Bella and says that he doesn't know what she was to him but he also turns around and tells Maya that his last relationship ended badly. He also refers to her as his girlfriend when they talk about it again. Even though they were apparently just fuck buddies.

I think you should re-read the story from scratch. Both Mona and Cathy are victims. You say nothing happened to them, huh?

Dude, we're talking about a story created by DrPinkCake: you know what happens in his first game, don't you?

Do you really think that the Restaurant Girls won't face any consequences for their actions? dude, IT WON'T END WELL, neither for them nor for that Burke guy.

 

[den_tiger]

In the Chick Route, Maya and Josy used the MC for their list, who did they use in the dik route?

A dildo.

So whether Zoey fucked around or not is all you got from what I said? Look that's not the point whether she did or not it doesn't matter, my point was that Zoey is her own person and like Tremolo she continued with her life. it doesn't matter if he called her his gf or whatever thats insignificant, he only mentioned her once and referenced her once and that was it. We didn't see him mope around because he lost her,in fact I'm pretty sure he fell for Josy not long after Zoey left. Not much fucks given from his side.

That's the setup for nothing. Just remember that Zoey comes back home and visit Neil. B&R isn't in MC's hometown.

I never said either of them handled the situation well. She left, he stayed. She ghosted him and he did nothing about it. As far as I'm concerned they had their thing and it's done. Bringing her back is going to be a mess and do nothing but add to the drama. I personally think the game will take a hit for it on a whole.

Whether or not she slept around was only one thing I took from it. I was also just adding my own two cents to the conversation. I'm not sure if you are for her or against her but to me she is irrelevant. But whether I like it or not she is likely here to stay.

Oh, I didn't realize that counted.

Is there an archive or gallery for wallpapers?

They werent, thats what the MC called them only AFTER he realised that he loves her. He explains it to Bella in the Cafeteria.

6 Months.

That's the setup for what the MC felt for Zoey, and what Zoey feels right now, where it leads ? Nobody knows yet.

Can you comprehend what you read? That is a direct quote from Zoey's profile on the MC's phone written by Pinkcake himself from the game BaDIK Interlude.

 

[Trojaner]

Hmmm, not so sure that nobody knows that yet. I'm sure the Chicks will Kill each other to get Tremolo for them alone.
