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

[Sparhawker]

ok, so, a lot of comment after I posted about not being able to get the Jill path.
Yes I have (or now had) DIK status when some major stuff came up so that's where I lost her, I did go on the picnic.
Trouble for me with all this is that the title is 'Being a DIK' so I assumed that being that was the target of the game, seems to me the game should really be called 'Being a CHIK' as that seems to be the status that gets you more of the content (or at least the content I wanted to see).
I've downloaded the gallery 'opener' and am stunned at how much I've actually missed out on by trying to get content and walk that line of not going too far, but there are SO MANY places where you add to your DIK stats and once on that path I just found it difficult to get back to the other side. I guess in a lot of cases I went with how I personally would play it, but then in real life I'd have wanted Sage (after learning that Josy&Maya were a couple) so I guess I got what I wanted. I have no intention of re-running the whole thing or trying to work out where to go from to just get certain content or routes...If Sage is NOT possible through the rest of the game then I will just give it up and accept that that's life.

I've now got the 'Interlude' and I must admit am a little confused...so the whole thing is just about Zoey and you are playing her!? Not sure what status I'm supposed to aim for though or where choices are going to lead me...I see the +/- notation in the WT (mejoress one) but I'm not sure how that affects this part of the game or how it would affect PT3 when it comes out.

 

[Sparhawker]

in the Interlude, do the +/- d cause any difference in the story or issues with EP3 when it comes out.....I still can't see a WT for specifically the Interlude apart from one I'd need to pay for on Patreon or buy a coffee (which I can't do as I'm unemployed)

Remains to be confirmed if it will influence anything S3 onward, but to me, DPC didn't do that for nothing, he has a reason for Zoey to have a DIK/Chick affinity gauge, I suppose if you played Zoey the total opposite of the MC, they could see they drifted too much apart, but if you played the same way, they'd have way more affinity.

Something like that, but that's just speculation on my part, still, again, there's no way DPC did that for absolutely no reason, he has a plan with that.

Alright now I'm confused so I'm just going to ask directly. What month do you think the school year starts? (In the game that is, which is based in the US)

It depends if you are a repeater and the school is the school and the university is the university, that is what the SAT is for and many people lose a month preparing for those exams because I don't know that you are a repeater
And it usually starts in August and ends in May, in short, seven months and some other universities are up to eight months ,But not all universities are the same ...There are those who measure studies in semesters, other quarterly periods and others in trimesters.
Not to mention that there are people who start their studies in July with the summer session.
If the game is based in Pennsylvania the start day is July 2nd for the summer session. But normally it starts on the tenth of August.

This Being A Dik game discussion page goes a mile a minute so I don't see the harm in asking for some help with this one game's name.

Mild femdom if that's the right word. MC goes to a party and likes this one woman. She makes him cum with her foot if I remember right..Anyway he agrees to be her little pet haha. She phones him up in the middle of the night to perform this task..Meet a girl in a park tomorrow. Sure why not. That happens and he performs his duty...goes to college and guess what..his professor is the mistress and is she ever perdy dressed up in her school clothes. WOW!! What's it called? It's about six months old with one update. I had two teachers in school that I was head over heels in love with. Mrs. Soberg and Miss Ellis A Swede and an Auzie

Looks good but kinda pale.
Also Jill's head is much bigger than Sage's

No. The split halves of the two faces in the middle just looks odd put together like that.

Don't let LizaS banner distract you from the fact that Amelia & Lana > Jill

Sick Sage with no make up is way more beautifull than Jill
Other than that, is Lacking Nicole

yeah, I guess my worry is that in the story line for pt3 you need some sort of affinity...I ended up neutral somehow (due the the permanent penalties I believe).....so I guess I may run through the interlude fully one way or the other and then do one that end in the middle. No idea how that affects the Interlude gameplay, but without knowing what the point of the Interlude is it's the only way to play it.

Only suggestion I'll do, observe, there are many instances where choices matters, and the renders will hint that.

So if possible, go blind for your first run.

Have fun, you'll see, it's quite addicting when you get into the story.

Don't worry too much about it, there's only one decision that really sets Zoey's affinity

That's, technically, not quite right. If you do a full playthrough of the interlude, Zoey's affinity is ultimately set according to sum of your decisions (depending on whether the total score amounts to positive or negative value) So, you can have a setup where Zoey burns some bridges in the end but is overall a CHICK, or vice versa. It's only if you choose to skip the interlude, that reduces the affinity to match the single major decision you have to make.

I would change something in the brightness of the banner

sure with Sage you weren't the most generous... but she's still love!!!

Damn, didn't think about that when I 're-did' the interlude for all my saves, just figured it took the same results I did on my first run. Fortunately it's short...
