VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[NoNameNeeded]

What's with all the kink shaming?
I very much enjoy NTR and incest in adult games but there is a big difference between games and real life.
Blowing people's heads off in Fallout is good fun, but that doesn't mean I want to do that in real life. Nor do I want to have sex with relatives or have my girlfriend have sex with other people. And I do think murdering people is way worse than watching your wife getting boned by some random dude.
Even if I'm playing adult games that are so-called my pov, it's still just a game and none of the characters are real or relatives.
And no, I don't think Being a DIK needs NTR or incest, it's great the way it is. Not whining or claiming victimhood, just giving my opinion. And I wont repeat it in a week/month. Guess that makes me unusual amongst the NTR lovers and the incest crowd, I highly doubt it though.
But hey, at least we can agree that Sage is the best girl .

I'm not kinkshaming. People can like what they like and it's no skin off my ass, especially not when it comes to adult games.
And I wholly agree with your post here.
I'd agree with you that you're levelheaded, unfortunately many others aren't and they shit up threads all over and then, as I wrote start a shitspiral.
So my post was , perhaps, an overgeneralisation of the average NTR enjoyer but that's what I generally see of them.

And yes, Sage is best girl.

I'm not into NTR myself, but you know what's a lot bigger problem than NTR lovers on this forum?

It's the people who whine about NTR whenever there's a female character who shows interest in someone other than the mc. According to them, every woman in a game is there only to serve the mc, no matter how much the mc lies, cheats or sleeps around. Noo, can't have the mc losing women to other characters due to his own shitty actions.

This is the other side of the coin.
I'd say they're both as bad and together they can, especially mixed with the "milking dev" whiners, ruin a thread completely.

When it comes with BaDIK it's pretty much a fucking given that a majority of the girls have had sexual partners before, Jill expempted, and that's natural given the "realistic" setting of the game. I also accept this as part and parcel of the game as well as the really real world.

So I agree with your post and can only hope that the virgin fanatics you describe in your post as well as the NTR brigade start a support group or a Thunderdome somewhere and let the rest of us average Joes enjoy our discussions and banter.

Hey, I need help settling a point with someone.

I'm sure I've seen DPC say that there will only ever be 5 MGs. I've looked at the past Q&As but can't seem to find it there.

Can someone direct me to where this was said?

Can't answer that question, sorry for that.

But, while he may have said it, Zoey never was supposed to return either, or I don't remember DPC talking about it, and damn he made her the MC of S3 Interlude to boot.

Wonder if he really is the type of person to make absolute claims to begin with, I think he keeps doors opened just in case.

Cause if that so, since we 'made a decision' in Crossroads, in theory there should be only 1 MG left (2 with the throuple, which I think will equate to 1 in the end anyway). And that won't be the case.

 

[Lostanddamned]

The fastest solved one was Riona's stalker issue if I'm not wrong, and it was nothing major tho apparently.

IMO, I have a feeling we got the wrong guy. I think that her stalker is still somewhere out there and the guy we got was red herring intended to give us relief that we solved the problem.

 

[dalli_x]

Just to have said it... I always had the gut feeling that the MC will die at the end of the game
The start of the game already gave me that vibe.... kinda like the movie "American Beauty"

When the protagonist starts to tell the story with lines like this : "Even if you lose your family or if your family loses you..."
and than... "As for now? Let me tell you what happened"

It is really like in these movies or books where the protagonist tells the story but its like a look back on his life which is now ending...

And i dont know... yeah BeingADik is completely different to Acting Lesson AND way more lighthearted and funny overall. DPC himself made it clear that this will not go THAT dark like AL... but... well... i dont trust him one bit

Just a gut feeling... but in some years we maybe come back and my gut feeling was right about that

I have long suspected that something bad might happen or has already happened to the MC that we don't know about yet. But it's nice that someone other than me noticed. Here is something to think about that is very strange.

EP1 could be not only the beginning but also the continuation of the story after a drama about the MC. Why is that?

There are two clues to that. One is in the game itself. Maya said to the MC when they were standing in front of the HOT's house that they were bitches. There was Camila, Sage and Quinn sitting on the sun lounger. Actually, the only thing that bothers me is Camila because she is actually a promise and has tattoos. A phoenix representing rebirth.

The second clue is in the open guide and refers to EP7 after Patrick leaves the room.

"Hug her if you have a Neutral or a CHICK affinity: + RP Maya. Maya will remember that you cared about her."

Why would Maya remember that the MC took care of her when he did it all along? I don't suppose Maya has a memory like a goldfish. Magna Cum Laude. But in EP1, when the MC is standing with Maya in front of the HOT's house, the CHICK MC is able to hug Maya and Maya's reaction to that was very positive, which is not really fitting for an introvert. Does Maya perhaps remember the hug from EP7?

DPC has planned with Zoey from the beginning. On the screenshot there is an apple to the right of Derek and a skateboard to the left. Strong symbols regarding Maya's apple in EP8 and Zoey's realization that she can skateboard better than surf.

Idea for thought. Where is B&R located? The game world has San Diego, Texas, and Australia. Geographically, it is identical to our world.
Several conclusions can be drawn:
1.At the end of the eighth episode, approximately the middle of October - we see that people began to dress warmer, the leaves on the trees turned yellow and fall. This is a temperate climate zone, so definitely not the southern states.
2. Zoey traveled to San Diego and back by train. I guess the distance isn't very far - who in their right mind would travel to the East Coast by train and not by plane? So the East Coast is crossed out.
3. The MC house is located next to the B&R - you can quickly get there by car.
In some scenes (Jade's invitation) you can see city lights and skyscrapers - well, this is definitely not Montana
4. MC said that it is cold in winter, the wind blows through the cracks.
I think B&R is on northern-east from California. Probably Seattle or somewhere in Oregon, or Minnesota.
Ideas, theories?

Swipper is missing. In Swipper there is a girl from NY and you can see the miles.
And I don't know why sometimes I think that girl is Lana because of her history of saying that she is fighting with her parents... another crazy theory

I would LOVE an avn or game in which the MC has one or more rivals for the love of the LI's. Just being the only stud on the farm gets old real fast. And it would open so many options for good stories/interesting scenes/gameplay if you have to really do your best to win the heart or the unbridled lust of your best girl or favored LI's.

I need a screenshot, otherwise I'll have to go through the game again up to this point...Then, based on the available data, calculate the approximate location.
How old is that New York girl? 22 or 24. Lana was that age, maybe a little younger in Jill's memories, who are about 10 years old. She can't be Lana and she looks different

The train is from Toronto, but that's too far a train ride...or is it?

The fraternity was created in Pennsylvania and is not far from NY. But there are actually more miles than the game says.
I'm opening the game to see that strange girl
Of course, since I never pay attention to this minigame, it says that maybe I don't live in NY

 

[dalli_x]

Well, you're absolutely right about that. To give a few examples of how long the problems take solving :
MC's problem of having a place to stay,
Sage's problem of being cheated,
Jill getting blackmailed,
Quinn's money problem,
Maya's money problem(yep, their problem was the same in core)
Maya&Josy feeling guilty about cheating,
Bella feeling like an adulteress
The fastest solved one was Riona's stalker issue if I'm not wrong, and it was nothing major tho apparently.

Well, the longest problem is mine because there wasn't a single Quinn preview for Ep 9 so far. JESUS

Why do you need a jail preview from Quinn?

When MC is communicating with Catrin on Swyper she's not in New York, she's in 'this town' (presumably the same town as MC, where B&R is). She bitches about how boring 'this town' is, and how she'd rather be back in New York than stuck here.

The train is from Toronto, but that's too far a train ride...or is it?

Maybe this is his full itinerary? California - Toronto. Yes, he's great this way. But you still don't know about the Moscow-Vladivostok train. It's 9300 km long and these crazy Russians live on a train for a week

In that case, Zoey is crazy. Even if the train is fast, it takes a long time. But climatically Pennsylvania is suitable. How did you find the information

They're Russian, a train is probably more comfortable than their house.

The dev said he got inspired by Life is Strange so my guess is somewhere in Oregon.

The MC was thinking about Zoey. In EP6 he says to Sage when he was consoling her so he should have sought closure once but hadn't and it's too late for that now. That sounds more very Zoey.

That's what Zoey is for, so the MC (us players that is) can make a final decision regarding the Li's.

The MC say what the player choose, my MC said you move on and done.
Zoey was never as important to MC as now DPC force us to think she was. She didn't even had a single line in the only flashback she had , , her only purpose was simply show that MC has sex experience and he was not a total virgin .

For the news on TV, in 2014 was the last time I heard about them because they wanted to do a fundraiser and well they are DIK's

You can choose what you want. However, I do think that a proper closing conversation adds value over a cheap text message.

So from the flashback we learn that the MC wasn't sure if he felt love for Zoey or not. That's one thing the MC should clarify for himself, especially since he told Maya in EP2 that he doesn't know what love is.

If the MC doesn't know what love is, how can he be sure if he loves the chosen one Li or not. This is a question that the MC should ask himself.

The three words "I love you" are quickly said, but that does not mean so that the heart feels it.

The city scene with Jade has the Petronas Towers in the background so clearly the game takes place in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia
