I think people are reading too much into this.

When DPC started Acting Lessons, it was a hobby, and it turned out well for him.

Then he started on BaDIK and his hobby became a huge success, so much so that he decided to do it full time.

He repeatedly tells us how much he enjoys doing this, and the satisfaction of doing something you enjoy and having it turn out really well is a great feeling.

So why would he even consider bringing other people into his employ?

Suddenly, what was initially a fun, rewarding, highly successful hobby, becomes a chore, it's now just a money making venture with employees, wages, etc.

If he's happy, why the fuck would he give what is bringing him satisfaction over to other people?

It's got nothing to do with micromanagement, trust etc.

I like posting shit on this board. Should I outsource it to others so I can post more shit, faster? I mean they could post the shit, then I just review it to make sure it looks like how I want.

Where's the fun in that?

If it was my job, and I didn't like doing it, well that's another story...


I'm not sure if he means that he rarely scraps an intended render (like deciding to scrap a scene or an expression or something like that), or if he never has to redo anything because it didn't turn out the way he wanted.

being totally honest here, he could very easily increase the quality of his product and/or the speed with which its released if he brought on other talented people to lighten his load. i understand he is likely a control freak and doesnt want other people "messing up" his baby, but pragmatically speaking there is a point where there is just too much work for one man to reasonably do. there is a lot of busywork that he could delegate to other people that would free him up to spend more time on the aspects of the game's production that he enjoys most (i dont care what he says, im 100% sure he doesnt love doing everything single thing in game development, he still does them but im sure there are parts he LOVES doing and the rest he merely TOLERATES doing).

we are currently at like 2 episodes every 12 months and who knows if that timetable will get worse as things move forward. i KNOW he could get these updates out faster with help, and with how much he makes from patron and the steam sales there is no reason to not speed up production if possible (unless he is just milking things without being obvious about it like Milfy City).

its laughable to compare this to the Sistine Chapel, but even Michelangelo had helpers

 

[Ilhares]

Why not? You know it was inevitable! Not a chance that his effort would be wasted. I don't think even a zombie apocalypse could have prevented an NTR post from happening here.

Yeah, but another game I like addressed it directly and amusingly.

Spoiler: NTR in my VN?! That's impossible

Its Scamber Turd.

 

[nyrek]

DPC doesn't seem to care much about botched renders and inconsistent models; he will keep the render even if it came out horrendous

I think you're onto something here
I mean, that would explain an occasional render where jill looks decent

but at least she now knows she can sell her turds for 15 million Ty should take notes

She can always open an onlyfans for her simps, or go back to stripping.
What a day , What a beautiful day.

 

[dalli_x]

so I think there's high probability of DPC playing tricks with MC's middle name (Lynette's last name)

The two first names thing gave me a funny thought. What if Quinn goes by her middle name in college and her first name is Lisa. The Lisa that Zoey was referring to in Interlude who has the hots for the MC.

Don't worry, she still has a trump card. Amber poops her chair in court for protest.

Objection, Your Honor. Rumors




Ah, this parody of Wellerman is pure gold. Best day ever.

I live for the twitter pettiness!

 

[Ottoeight]

Lynette and Amelia, to the best of my knowledge, have never shared a scene together, nor shared conversation while one was offscreen.

Well, I guess it's time for fact checking:

here you are:

1.





2. the mansion and the fields, too:






Now, have a look here:

3. Mom's diary:




Do you see the mansion in the distance? do you identify it? even the trees are still there!

 

[Ottoeight]

Tbh, we had an Italian exchange student named "Felicia" when I was in university, so I assumed that Felice is also a female name.

Besides, I need you, bb. I need you so you can get Tara and I can have Jaye for myself.

Felice is the male name (much more common than its female form). Felicia is very rare: its hypocoristic form, Licia, is far more common.

Do you see the mansion in the distance? do you identify it? even the trees are still there!

Which changes absolutely nothing about what I said. You have a background location, and zero confirmed Lynette/Amelia interaction. Unless Lynette starts talking about her friend Amy (known shorthand for Amelia) or you get a scene with them together there is zero evidence that they even knew each other, let alone were best friends.

There could be that connection, but it has no basis in fact at this time. The claim was presented as a fact. It is not.

The house matches, none of the women do.

We know the names of all three of Lynette’s friends. None are called Amelia which we know is Jill’s mothers name.

Jill’s mother isn’t Lynette’s “best friend” as far as we know. Nothing has indicated they even know one another. There’s other explanations for the house.

 

[Lostanddamned]

Felice is the male name (much more common than its female form). Felicia is very rare: its hypocoristic form, Licia, is far more common.

That girl's parents probably found her name in a rare names book, idk.

<snip>
There’s other explanations for the house.

Let's delve into dalli_x territory with this one. Why would the house be such a focal point, but only really be relevant on the Jill path? Because banging Jill will likely get MC access to the house. Why would that matter? Something he finds in the diary.

A clue to recovering, perhaps, something of significant value from the house, even if it's just a copy of his birth certificate (or hers) that gives him solid proof of who his family actually is? A buried safe that she knew the combination to, that was covered in renovations before the Royce family moved in? An actual fat stack of old cash in a nice bundle that's hidden behind the air duct in the basement on a supporting i-beam?

What could it be?!
(edit: While I am being sarcastic, this could be the key to MC's real wealth being revealed, so he absolutely gets to rub it into Tybalt's face. He's better looking, he's more well hung, he's legitimately nicer to Jill, and he's filthy fucking rich, something Tybalt only plays at being).

So tell me: who took the picture?

her 2 friends came to see her, then they go to the cinema and meet MC's dad. Then we see Lynette ending the story with this picture in her hands (picture with her 2 friends).
Now, who took the picture? I guess it was taken by someone living in that mansion. Remember: as Jill says, EVERYTHING around that mansion is Royce's private property. They weren't allowed to be there unless they were invited.
