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

[felicemastronzo]

so I am probably going to get a lot of shit for this, but I feel like Jill's story has been the most fleshed out of all the girls stories and probably the best as far as stories go, its probably cliche as hell, but the payoff of waiting imo was worth it. On the other extreme I really want to be able for the MC to romance Quinn. I think she is slowly slowly coming around to lowering her walls (her panties were never in question) and I think the MC and Quinn could have a nice relationship in their own way, I won't be like the MC's and Jill's relationship but I want to see something happen.

you're on the Internet so it's the least you can expect , but I pretty much agree with you

it's definitely the most complete story, but also the most classic story, which seems taken from those afternoon TV movies, if the game ended now for Jill's fans it might even be ok like that, I don't know how many people care about MC's family issue (I hardly care at all)

Sage's is the one that has added something with each passage, but I would say that by far it is the one that is the most behind

about the one with Bella, as mentioned above, it just weighs too heavily that none of the issues the 2 will have to deal with were addressed, in fact the husband was never even mentioned..

the trouple has pretty much been on hold since chapter 4, since then we've seen essentially why it couldn't work and why MC might prefer one of the two girls, but very few steps forward

ugh don't get me started on the Maya/Josy mess I've stated in this thread many times that I was initially a Maya stan because when I first played the game she was technically the first girl (before I knew Josy was going to be around more) and I thought hers and the MC's journey was going to be interesting, but once Josy came back into the mix, it seems like that story got derailed by "my dad is a uber religious controlling asshole who has control over me with this bad premise of loans n shiet".

the throuple on paper sounds nice but being with 2 women in a relationship is hell bent for disaster, sooner or later one will get more possessive and decisions have to be made, I am hoping we get a definitive break up of Maya/Josy (hopefully amicable) or that they stay on their path after Maya sacks up and tells her dad to get fucked.

and another untouchable subject cause I know people love them, are all the side chicks, Sarah Camila and those girls are fine but are still kind of paper thin and while they have their pros and cons I'll always see them as the dinner menu.

Sage I agree has potential of being something great but the Chad drama was just so weird to me and the MC finding out who her adopted parents are at the end of Episode 8 (specially if MC was banging Jade) when the MC chooses Sage it was nice but it didnt have the impact imo that it did with Jill.

I had tried it until the fifth chapter (not only no sex, but also bad school results), then I didn't take it any further, because in addition to being naturally boring, it also didn't involve any particular differences in dialogue

certainly getting to the post-recital crisis of conscience and the breakfast of the great virgin decision could hold great satisfaction....

I have done something similar with the relationship with Sage and until Sage breaks her relationship with Chad I have not started to have a relationship with her and surprise Sage has been unfaithful with Chad but MC did not grab it ... another theory XD .Who is the other?

Why should the throuple be a disaster? No one needs to or becomes possessive. Josy and Maya are in agreement so they are not jealous of each other. The MC can do the same thing when he sets up the date for Josy and Maya in EP8. I don't see a disaster there.

Maya gives the MC to understand at the Dorm Party so the Throuple is ready. The only thing left for the MC to do is to tell Josy and Maya that he has decided for them.

all relationships will bring problems, so from that point of view the trouple is just as complicated as the others (i.e., absolutely more so, but it still has the emergency parachute that by leaving the trouple you might end up with one of the two girls anyway. better than nothing)

definitely depends on taste, but all the stories are quite strange and never 100% convincing

Tybalt's blackmail is one of the worst ever, a threat that is ignored and respected at the same time, because it's Tybalt anyway...

I think it's just a bad letter. Pink forgot about it and did not alter the line of the dialogue. As an option, Sage could lie about cheating. The game already has examples where characters react inadequately to unpopular actions of the player that were not embedded in the game code: MC reaction at the end of episode 8, even if you didn't fuck Sage and Jade, incomprehensible punishment of Josie if you didn't fuck her, the opinion of the player from girls as someone who walks around even if you don't fucked nobody and much more.

thats fair, I'm just coming from the angle (45 degree not 90) that in most cases it can get that way eventually it does and can happen if it doesn't happen in this game so be it but I think it would be better all around if they spend time as a throuple but break it off and the MC chooses who he wants to be with the most while still being friends with them.

The relationship in the troupe is too perfect and vanilla. Pink said that for him the ideal drama is the roller coaster method that we saw during season 2. There will be a crisis one way or another, it is inevitable. I do not believe that until the end of season 4 there will be mutual understanding in the group and there will be no conflicts and quarrels.

I am not saying that there will be no crises. In every relationship there are good days and bad days. That's the case in every relationship, whether it's a couple or a threesome. But that is the challenge, because a relationship is strengthened when such crises are overcome together.

I can already see a disagreement coming up at the Throuple. The vacation planning over Christmas. Josy and the MC like the warmth (San Diego) and Maya likes the cold (mountains). The MC needs to get Maya fit and more confident in her comfort zone. We read why in the sauna scene from Josy/Maya/MC Hangout 2 in EP8. Maya doesn't feel comfortable in a bikini because it's too revealing. Solution. All three go to the mountains with Jill and check into a hotel with a spa.

The only thing that could harm the threesome relationship is for only one of the girls to get pregnant.

my 2 cents on how it could happen, is that Josy falls deeper in love with the MC and it could go from there, it felt like once Josy came back Maya latched back on to her more than the MC but because Josy is really into and cares about the MC she's still around. Like Maya doesn't get the hint maybe, I really do hope theres no tragedy involved in the separation if it happens though.

and I will be honest I love that this game isn't about harem routes, I like that you just cant bang everyone all at the same time.

certainly Maya is "distracted" by the issue of the loan, but that Josy gets much more out of line with MC is a fact, which also makes it hard to imagine her backing down in case the trouple ends badly (not that it's something she's not good at...)

 

[horusxcaen82]

Josy and Maya love the MC and they love each other. There will be no problem. Besides, Josy likes threesome sex and Maya also goes in that direction, considering the hot tube scene of EP8.

The decision about the throuple is made at the dorm party. The MC can fuck Maya, but he doesn't have to. If he doesn't, there is no throuple. The MC can dance with Josy, but he doesn't have to. Ergo, it is not good for Josy. However, if the MC dances with Josy, then Josy will probably leave Maya if the MC did not fuck Maya. For that Josy becomes like Elena. Why? Josy loves threesome sex.

Moreover, the Mc already makes another important choice in EP4. The MC should choose in which bed he wants to sleep. If he decides to sleep on the floor, the MC clearly shows that he will not make a choice between Josy and Maya, but his choice is either for Josy/Maya or for neither.

I mean from what I can see you are a fan of the throuple (I'm guessing) for me personally after Maya and her drama, I just prefer Josy more than Maya. hey threesome shit is fun and the scenes are hot but I do have to agree with Pasha that it feels very perfect and vanilla.

If I'm not mistaken, in episode 8 you can both dance with Josie and fuck Maya during party.

Josy alone is too perfect to be true, I always thought so. But together with Maya, Josy also has a small crisis that must be overcome, or what they will overcome. The Patrick problem. And there will be other crisis. Without Maya and/or the three-way relationship, a solo Josy pledge would be rather tensionless. For example, Josy's parents didn't know so she was in a lesbian relationship that expanded into a threesome. How will Josy's parents react to this?

Josy and Maya need each other in this game and the three-way relationship brings the adrenaline spice.

for my money I say Josy and Maya stay as a couple and let the MC have the occasion slap and tickle with them. the MC doesn't have to be there, I do get where you are coming from. I just feel like the more intimate 1 on 1 relationships the game has to offer are better in the long run.

 

[ArmoredCascade]

how do you play D&G with Jill it seems like no matter what you pick MC gets the shorter end of the stick because of Magnar

 

[inevitableandinfinity8]

Most people that suggest the story isn't great are those who are looking for a strong plot. Something that compels the mc through the events.

Most stories here have an obvious aim for their mcs.

The mc in this game has no specific aim.

Like what is he actually trying to achieve?

• He's not trying to save the beautiful princess from the evil queen (well he did do that once).
• He's not trying to use the Book of the Dead to get himself back to his own time.
• He's not dealing with insomnia and an alter ego intent on blowing up to blow up the world's main bank servers in order to wipe out all debt.
• He's not teaming up with his brother to get his band back together to raise enough money to save the orphanage he grew up in.
• He's not trying to stop the Nazi's from obtaining God's covenant to the world and tapping into its untold powers.
• Depending on how you play the game, he's not even trying very hard to graduate from college.

He's just floating from day to day, occasionally fucking different girls (sometimes a bit more than occasionally ), and helping out his friends when he can.

The mc doesn't even have any pressing issues of his own to deal with. I mean, he'd like to find out more about his mom, but he's not really putting any emphasis on seriously getting through her diary. Then there was that one time when he didn't have any clothes...

So all-in-all, I can agree with anyone that says it's not a "great" story, if by "great" they mean a huge sweeping plot of "Ben Hur" proportions (not the remake, I heard that was shit).

But that doesn't mean the story isn't highly entertaining.

Just like Rimmer said in his opening line, "Depends what you are looking for..."
magaclaawe

I strongly disagree with you on few points.
obvious aim : Passing the collage. ( Choice is already there to study but it's on us as player if mc study or not.)

The game is not about getting a girl but a telling a story of Mc life.

• He's not trying to save the beautiful princess from the evil queen (well he did do that once). : 1. Jill if not then sage(guiding her through break up *As a friend - at least for my mc) above all he saves his dik friends and restoring Diks masion.

• About Mc Impact on Diks : 1. They learn to work. 2. First time they are not at secondary place. 3. they becoming responsible 4. He try to make diks and hots relation better then ever.

• He's not trying to use the Book of the Dead to get himself back to his own time.
  ohh was that a joke . . . I didn't get that.

• Depending on how you play the game, he's not even trying very hard to graduate from college. When mc stuff is stolen and he have nothing but mc can study by taking book from maya. ::: It's all about choices (At the beginning of chapter 7 mc studying on rooftop with derek it's not that highlighted but he is doing it. that is all. )

You : He's just floating from day to day, occasionally fucking different girls (sometimes a bit more than occasionally ), and helping out his friends when he can. :

ME :
i played sage path and didn't find lots of that you mentioned.
i played Maya and Josy path and didn't find lots of that you mentioned.
i played Isabelle path and didn't find lots of that you mentioned. : but got blue balls
i played jill path and didn't find lots of that you mentioned. : but got major blue balls
i played Quinn path and didn't find lots of that you mentioned.

Only cheat mod and destructive path lead to get all sex in one play-through and that would be stupid.

You : So all-in-all, I can agree with anyone that says it's not a "great" story, if by "great" they mean a huge sweeping plot of "Ben Hur" proportions (not the remake, I heard that was shit).

ME :

IT'S ONE OF THE BEST GAME BECAUSE IT'S NOT ABOUT STORY, IT'S ABOUT THE COMBINATION OF MULTIPLE STORY OF OTHER CHARACTER THAT EFFECT MAIN STORY AND THE CHOICES DRIVEN ENVIRONMENT MAKE THIS SHIT BEST OF THE BEST STORY IN VN GAMES.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are so many points I can add but I am lazy dickhead so .

 

[horusxcaen82]

You have your opinion and that's fine with me.

thats the beauty of discussion the ability to share opinions

 

[DrSoong]

For example, Josy's parents didn't know so she was in a lesbian relationship that expanded into a threesome. How will Josy's parents react to this?

Speaking of the lesbian relationship, i think Josy's dad Pete wouldn't think too much about it, he seems to be the type caring for his daughter. The Throuple is another point, he could see the same problems that have been discussed here. In that case he would be sorrow way more that in the lesbian relationship, in the Throuple is way more potential to be blown up.
