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

[Ilhares]

We did, not a face to face but remembering the cluck about Jill playing tennis? The one Jill posted, there was a cluck by Sage to Tybalt.

Yes, in know, this is a small evidence but one time Sage talked about Tybalt and Jill.

I'd swear that Sage and Jill both made indirect references to Tybalt with the guitar discussion. Something about it being a 'low class' choice or something.

Am I safe to assume that this game is coming to an end?

In the sense that all things come to an end, sure. But not any time soon. At the very minimum we have all of season 3 to wait for (which will be another 4 episodes), and it seems extremely likely (despite Arigon's claims) that there will be a season 4 as well, and the game will go well beyond a mere 10 episodes. 16 is a safe expectation.

I don't think so only because the MC hasn't even finished his first year yet of college. Although I understand why you think so, since who knows how long the current main storylines will go without new ones later to replace them. I think it's likely it will end with S3 or S4 if there is one.

Indeed. But also, finished the first year? He's barely finished the first half of the first semester. Including his time at home and everything we've been shown so far, we're looking at roughly 2 months as I recall.

Why have a threesome when you can have a foursome.

- Josy/Maya & Zoey
- Josy/Maya & Lily
- Josy/Maya & Quinn
- Josy/Maya & Melanie
- Josy/Maya & Sarah
- Josy/Maya & Elena

Josy/Maya & Jill
And why not
Josy/Maya & Jill & Bella?
And going really crazy
Josy/Maya & Jill & Bella & Sarah & KRJ????

MC's life has never been so good.

 

[DrSoong]

Josy/Maya & Jill & Bella & Sarah & KRJ????

Don't you shame for yourself having no mercy with MC? This would empty him for at least 2 Episodes.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

I think Tommy was in love with her, which is why he's so weird and jealous about some other dude dating her sister. I have a sister and I don't care who her boyfriend is, I don't have a fucking sister complex. I really don't understand Tommy's hatred for Josie, otherwise it can't be explained by complexes.

Maybe it's hard for me to understand this brother-sister relationship because I was the only child in the family.
Well, about Tommy... it's quite possible. Maybe he wants to fuck her?
I'm scared for the MC when Tommy finds out that I fucked his sister and cuck him

 

[TheThirst]

I've just started playing this, really enjoying it so far but had a question. Can I afford to take any Major DIK decisions when doing a CHICK playthrough? Will it screw me over or is it ok so long as I keep CHICK affinity? By 'screw over' I mean lock me out of some CHICK decisions later on.

Apologies if the question has been asked, I did search but couldn't find anything useful.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Yeah, I think it's just a visual representation of MCs evaluation of his relationships.
I get it that we are in half way, and might not all door closed, but let's be real, going backward in season 4 , to achieve a different relationship?! , i don't know.

In some cases, there are just too many thing happened, to just suddenly just speed up that missed relationship events. Do ve really need a 4-5 scene with Maya worrying about the lube. or a Second "first time" sex with Jill ?!

I am deeply convinced that the " solo routes" for Maya and Josy exist for those outside the trouple (otherwise I will consider it half a con), however, it is not necessarily the case that they exist for everyone, there will surely have been "trap" choices that will block any possibility

apparently with Sage it was enough not to want to teach her how to play guitars to cut off relations, instead then suddenly we were given another chance, definitely losing stages in their relationship, but this was not a problem

then honestly if in a possible new relationship with Maya, a genius of human relations and feminism, we don't have to explain to her how a vagina works, I see it as anything but a character bonus!!!

I agree 4 seasons ending with 1st year sounds about right. Any longer and game will have jumped the shark.

Aside from DPC arriving at my home with a pink cake that he personally baked for me himself and telling me this game will continue past MC's 1st year of uni and then DPC giving me a sensual handjob with lots of eye contact, I simply won't believe the games covers all 4 years. Not even generous time skips would help.

When I look at the slowing pace of episode releases, the fact that the game has already been in development for over 3 years, and how by year 1 end, players will have done everything (and everyone) B&R university can offer, it just seems a natural time to cease production and move on to a new interesting story. As much as people are attached to these characters, I think as soon as DPC drops previews of his next game and a batch of fresh characters, players will be insta-hyped and start loudly claiming waifus to simp for.

If we will have 4 seasons...

And we have finished 2 seasons...

And we already had a time jump of a few weeks within the last episode of S2...

And we are not even at Halloween yet...

What makes you think 4 seasons will get to the end of the first school year? At the current timeline progression rate we'll probably get to Xmas, which is the end of the first term, by the end of season 4.

Well, Maya said something Interesting. Maybe it's not Necessarily have to have 4 full Year, but 3. With season 3 We can Enter the Second Year, and Season 4 can serve as the graduation year, or Season 5, if we get 20 episode. Or if we get 16 episode, its still can work, .

It's not entirely impossible

if it was just the story of Maya, Josy and Zoey and in theory Bella as well, BADIk could also go on for their entire college lives.

But since we also have Sage, who we are told explicitly is about to graduate, and Jill, who should be at the same point more or less, in my opinion it would make very little sense to drag the story out any further

whether it then ends at Christmas break or at the end of the school year, to me it changes little. it's a story of school love, it doesn't have to have much of a development over time

Yes, but the majority of your Major Decisions should still be chick.
Also affinity and status are two different variables.

You could afford 1 or 2 major dik choices depending on the timing.

Also if this is your first playthrough, I advise doing a blind run.

Inb4 DPC bamboozles everyone and turns this into an open-world 3D game (like GTA or Bully) that gets updated on a weekly basis.

Get ready for this to turn into a 44 season game and Arigon getting a heart attack out of rage.

I don't think Tommy will want to fuck Josy. She will be just too small for him. Tommy likes to fuck big girls like Heather and Tania.

You don't have to worry about the MC. The MC will just flatten Tommy and then drag him to Chad and Troy.

as good a way as any to get another incomplete game

Eh, it's not like it's going to be the end of the world if this remains unfinished. Mozart's Requiem symphony remained unfinished, because he died before finishing writing it, but it's still considered a masterpiece.

That being said, I don't see this being finished until like spring 2026, if we are taking a middle point of episode 16 being the last one. If he really goes for 20 episodes, the date goes to spring 2028. Even if we are being optimistic for 16 episodes, that is an incredibly long time to keep people interested in your product.

Now you made me want a Bully re-make..... Not going to lie something BaDIK style with more fleshed out story and romance would be dope in Bully's style.

Bully was actually one of DPC's inspirations for the game. Life is Strange is another one. He also takes inspirations from things like Catcher in the Rye and Mass Effect.

Yeah, I don't think we'll ever get something like Bully ever again. Even if we get Bully 2 (or a remake of the original) it's going to be half-assed or bunch of content cut off so that it doesn't offend anyone.

It only would be incomplete if there were things not solved/answered until the final chapter. You could do this in one or two episodes, to make it good (almost) every question should be answered (and this should not only be at the main story, also the side stories should be closed).

there are so many open mysteries that complete closure is virtually impossible. not even if it lasted the whole life of DPC

There isn't that Many, and most of them are probably as simple as Chad being gay. Yeah, its gonna be as simple as : it was the Jock who trashed the Mansion, and Nick got lucky, becasue he didnt banged Arieth.

I think, it is inevitable, that the "payoffs" are gonna feel a let down for most of the peoples. With all the time spent on theories, people's disappointment are bound to happen, when things are gonna be way more simple.

I think Ached said it the best: This is more of a Slice of life, than anything else.
And definitely not a Shyamalan flick, no matter how Dalix hope for it

Watch as in the epilogue after the ending in the final episode MC is being woken up by Neil because he's going to be late for school and he finds out that it was all a dream.

Can't blame him for it. That would explain the ending - Neil kills him after he sees the water bill if he spends such a long time under the shower dreaming about his time at B&R.

If he stays this long in the shower, physically thinking of Josy, after leaving he would shine that bright down there, he could stand on the top of a skyscraper as the position light.
