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

[Cabin Fever]

I don't think I've seen a single self respecting dev that when talking about more funding, hardware upgrades, assets etc. that even mentions faster updates. Its always higher quality, more animations, longer animations, licensed ost that are promised. Now you can call that greed, or ambition, or whatever, but I honestly don't get why the public always cries about faster updates every time one of those devs makes it big, when they never promise such thing?

I get what you're saying, this was more of a general question not specifically directed at you. There will come a time when DPC and people in his position have to make some compromises, because no matter how proficient he is, there will always be the hardware limitations, but at the same time I just got tired of seeing entitled people on the pirate site demanding that 'X has no excuse for not hiring 20 people to help' and other retardations of the sort, while seemingly being completely oblivious how the patreon-centric business model works.

But I don't think you get what I'm saying. At no point did I say DPC should make things faster or sacrifice quality. I'm saying he can make things at his current pace but there are logical points in his releases to split it up. So you are talking about something completely different from what I'm saying.

Having said that, you are entirely wrong in saying that no self respecting dev would mention faster update when talking about more funding for hardware upgrades, assets, etc. In fact most of them do. Just that very few if any would give faster update as the only reason for more funding.

It could be absolutely anyone of their mutual friends though. Hell, the first person to come to mind when it comes to cheating would be Tommy. For Elena to instantly get that MC is talking about Chad would be unrealistic IMO, but it's reasonable that it's AVN we are talking about.



The reason I thought Josy was a bad option wasn't because she can't keep a secret, it's because she never has an opinion on anything. She just goes along with whatever everyone else says and almost never takes the initiative in leading or suggesting.

It is not a normal betrayal, and mutual friends are not so many... DIKS and hots

Tommy and Heather are in a open relationship so they dont fit

The other couples are John and Elena and Sage and Chad....

 

[Lostanddamned]

Assuming Elena might find out and we wouldn't want that, I probably would've asked Cathy tbh if she was available.

Cathy would be another good option, seeing that she's always open to helping students with whatever issues might have.

Definitive people MC shouldn't talk to about the issue: Jade, Stephen, Jill (it would be completely pointless as she wouldn't be able to say anything of value to help the situation), Tommy and Derek.

The cheating context also fits Derek. That might imply that Derek is a homosexual, but that cunt deserves it because of his mouth that he seems to not be able to keep shut.

There are three couples

Heather + tommy

Elena + john

Sage + Chad

I feel the risk

I forgot dany + jamjam

 

[DarkKiller]

This is a double-edged sword.

The MC is very good friends with Isabella or even more so, but Isabella doesn't change her mind about Sage until mid EP8.

With Elena, it's the other way around. She knows Sage very well, but the friendship between Elena and the MC doesn't get going until mid EP8 either.

I understand why the MC talked to Josy about it. Whether it's better or worse doesn't matter. But Josy noticed that something was bothering the MC, and she called him on it. But we know about Josy from EP6 that she can keep a secret and only talk about it with the person who trusted her with the secret. Maya violated that because she arbitrarily told Sage about her relationship with Josy without talking to Josy about it first.

That's not who Bella is, she said it herself during the tennis game, she's not a hateful person so she doesn't do it because she hates Tybalt, she does it because she loves Jill.
The same would apply in this case I think, even though she disliked Sage she'd help MC because that's what's important to her.

Outside of her own emotional problems, DPC wrote her as a really mature person, her refusing to help someone she cares about out of spite for another involved party would be really out of character for her.

In chapter 4, if MC ask her refuge when he freaked out, she the only one that tried to make him see reason

Without asking to much details

I forgot dany + jamjam

I thought Jamjam's ass belonged to Leon?

You know who would be another great option for advice? Neil. He may not experienced a situation like that before in his life, but I'm sure that he can give a reasonable advice as to what MC should and should not do.

Edit: I suppose Jacob would also be another good guy to talk to. He seems to be able to keep his mouth shut and is smart and reasonable in the way he acts and thinks.

Goddess for a reason.

Dany isn't a HOT, though.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Ok but jamjam is a dik, so Elena could think about his couple

But I agree it would be strange for a dik asking an advice to a hot about another dik...

Josy has her own opinion. But Josy's problem is so she doesn't make decisions for herself on her own. She makes her decision dependent on others.

I am thinking that it may not have been that the MC needed or wanted advice when he told Josy. It may have been more that the MC was able to sort and gather his thoughts because he told someone.

Also, it made the MC learn some things about Josy that were important for him to make a personal decision. Now how can this be explained?

From the MC's text, he doesn't care if Chad cheated on Sage with a guy or a girl because it didn't make any difference to him. So all that matters to the MC is that Chad Sage cheated. Josy only brings up to the MC that maybe Chad was just using Sage if Chad is only gay and not bisexual.

She's not ?!? But she's so HOT !!!.....

If someone who is in trouble, who doesn't know what to do is asking you am advice, there is no worse answer than "i would prefer you don't tell me that"

It is the worst answer possible.

is there no torrent file for season 1-2?

The MC did not ask Josy for advice. Josy just wanted to know why the MC was absent-minded because the MC actually always listens when Jojo talks. Josy apologizes to the MC for telling her when asked.

But it was only because the MC told Josy that he cleared his head. I don't know if this has ever happened to you, but it has happened to me when I've talked to someone about a problem, regardless of whether the person knew the problem, and gotten a different perspective.

What reason has mc to share his situation with Josy if not for an advice, for an help?

When you need an advice you say directly "i want an advice, please"?
Came on...

Josy's reaction remain the worst possible

Josy made the MC tell her everything because she noticed that the MC was not listening to Josy, which he usually does. Josy even apologizes to the MC for this.

Josy actually just wanted to know why the MC was elsewhere with his thoughts. After all, she didn't know what the MC was thinking about. Josy also said so she now understands why the MC zoned out.

The reason why the MC told Josy about it, the MC says himself. Because Josy and Maya are the female counterparts of Chad and Troy. Accordingly, Josy definitely has more experience about same-sex relationships than the MC.

And he wanted an advice, as he doesn't know what to do


In fact after she gives him an advice... No getting involved

Definitive people MC shouldn't talk to about the issue: Jade, Stephen, Jill (it would be completely pointless as she wouldn't be able to say anything of value to help the situation), Tommy and Derek.

Even though Cathy isn't part of MC's peer group, she has experience with violation of privacy. Another one I had in mind was Heather tbh. Technically, Tommy might not be cheating but she also doesn't always know the full extent of their open relationship.

Anyway, for a second, let's think about what the "shouldn't talk with" people would say :
Jade: "Whether you tell her or not, she should also fuck someone else to make things equal"
Stephen: "Hmm send her to me, I might be able to help.."
Jill: "Maybe it's destiny?"
Tommy: same as Jade
Derek: "There are many fish in the ocean, ass-man"

It's just nice to see that people (thank God) have different views and interpretations.

That's why I think so we will not come to a consensus on this point. But that's okay for me.
