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

[Darkdevil66]

and this creates a pretty strong disconnect in the story, because a Quinn who vaguely cares about MC would stop chasing Maya's video, who she knows is a friend of his. and at the same time an MC in the trouple how can he serenely agree to collaborate with Quinn for the halloween party?

It's practically like there are two Quinns in the story

Nope, you're simply projecting you're way of thinking on the characters. There's no disconnection Quinn won't change her ways with Maya after a few days simply because she starts to feel something serious for the MC. They're not even dating at this point. It would be completely out of her character to suddently make all kind of compromise. Her relationship with the MC may have evolved but not her ways of thinking.

As for the throuple, I still banged Quinn on the roof and didn't tell Maya anything about Quinn on my M&J save. So, in the end, the MC is just a bad boyfriend ( just like me IRL ). There's no issue here.

Actually, you could be right, Quinn could actually do it, as she loves the most bombastic failures

I know i'll probably be waiting a looong time but 2 things keeping me from playing this game YET. Is one I fell for Josy in the first 10 min playing the game and later on finding out she's in a lesbian relationship with Maya and 2 i don't like starting a story that's not finished yet. I binge read or watch or play everything till the end i hate not knowing what's gonna happen next and having to wait months to find out. And i know you can be in a throuple with Josy and Maya but i'm not into lesbian/Bi relationships. Nothing wrong with it you do you more power to you but it's not for me. But if there is some way down the line if MC can be with just Josy then i'm in.

Come on like Maya and Josy ain't having sex without MC being there To me you kinda asking for it when you are in a throuple relationship a throuple relationship ain't much different from being in an open relationship if you want a relationship where the guy doesn't bang someone else then get in a 1 on 1 relationship. JS you can have the best intentions when having a throuple relationship but when it comes down to it your in lust with those people in in love. some people mistake lust for love and don't know the difference.

I know I played up to Ep5 and stopped there in 2020, started the game again about a month ago, up to the end of Interlude, damn, crazy ride... won't be able to wait 2 years again though when Ep9 comes out, but I don't mind.

Maya got to me, like a lot, she's an introvert, so am I, DrPinkCake knows how introverts works for sure (I suspect he's one) so I kinda understood how she felt inside, something was fishy though, but she opened up so, well... still went for Josy for that date, cause she was just too sweet and cute not to, and she was excited to come in, she called us, wanted to come for us... then fuck happened.

Yeah, was also in shock when everything happened, like most people.

Since then, I'm very iffy on that throuple thing, I just don't believe it can work, and honestly, don't want to spoil anything, but if you play up to the end of Ep8, you can choose one or the other at various points (won't spoil further).

And yeah, of course they bang when they're together, it's how a throuple works, they all go to each other on their special accord, but yeah, as the MC can bang Josy, Maya or both, so can they.

For the record, I also want solo Josy. Don't know where you stopped playing, but DrPinkCake develops her way more in the later episodes, Maya too, to some extent.

Yeah to me i would think in a throuple relationship you lose a sense of intimacy that 2 people share in and out of bed. The difference between a traditional 1 man 1 woman relationship and a 1 man 2 women relationship or any other combination is the same difference between F*cking and making love. Intimacy is the key to a good relationship and i just don't think you can have that with more than 2 people in a relationship.

Never been in a throuple myself and can't imagine I ever will be, but I have had romantic feelings for more than one person at the same time. So, to me it seems totally plausible that in a genuine three-way relationship, one could experience intimacy and all the other trappings of a healthy relationship. This is not true of a "harem" where there is romance only between the women and the man. Jealousies and other problems are all but inevitable in such a situation. But if all 3 partners love the other two in the same way, I don't see why it couldn't work.

Of course, just like in a 1-man-1-woman relationship, if one person's feeling changes, then the relationship suffers. So the danger here is that one person comes to feel less connected to the throuple for whatever reason. In BaD, I know some players prefer Maya or prefer Josy and ignore the one they care less for. I'm one of those players who loves and is very attracted to both characters and so feel invested in the throuple's success. If we are forced to choose one or the other later in the game, I will be quite disappointed.

Josy clearly is in love with the MC (Ep8 dance with Elena/JB commenting beside), in that throuple thing it's evident, especially if you focus on her, when she wears the sweater he gives her at the beginning you know you're on her path, and Maya finally manages to trust a man, and consequently trusts herself, all that thanks to the MC being strong for her, that's what she needs to finally be free. But there's a rift between Josy and Maya, it's subtle but you can see it while playing, choices you make being the first ones, even if you try to even it out.

I just want to have a choice between solo Josy, solo Maya, the throuple, or let them be in their actual relationship (I don't see the latter possible, it's apparent when you comfort Josy when she leaves Maya's dorm).

Just an assumption of course, I think we'll have to work harder for the throuple to work than the solo routes, but I'm pretty sure it'll be a choice.

Your right it is possible to have feelings for more than one person but putting those feelings in a relationship just wouldn't work thats why i said intimacy would play a factor in it. throuple relationships only work in theory that's why you hardly if ever hear of anybody doing it. Jealousy,Compition for effection. I could imagine how tiring it could be to satisfy 2 people and i'm not talking just sex i'm talking about dates, conversations everything sharing everything. You say it is possible to love more than 1 person but at the end of the day you have to make a choice..... which... one?

"Who do you love more, mommy or daddy?"

Plenty of people have first-hand long term experience with what you'd call throuples, even if they don't recognize it. Obv. generally not of the sexual kind; but the sharing of love, intimacy, making choices who to spend time with etc? It's all there.

You're right this model is rare when it comes to romantic relationships, but that's because the timing plays crucial role; whether it's introduction of 3rd person to already established couple, or full throuple forming, you need the involved parties to develop feelings at the same time, with similar rate and strength. And that's not going to be common.

Yeah theres mommy daddy love and theres loving 2 women or men love not comparable. not the same thing. And i'm sorry everybody has a favorite and you might not relize you show any favortizm but you do it they see it and it would not work out in a throuple relationship. In short term yes in theory in is possible to make it work. But long term as marriage kids ect.. not a chance jealousy is a powerful emotion.

Does anyone have a list of songs that were used for Being a DIK? Many of them were deleted from youtube playlist and I only have few of my favourite titles saved.

No, not everybody has a favorite; and jealousy, while common, is similarly not universally powerful emotion. I think you're making a mistake of attributing your own feelings and preferences to everyone, disregarding their values could be completely different.

what do you mean?

Would anyone be interested in a mod pack that selectively makes some scenes faster/smoother? I got in to rpaextract and popped some scenes in to a video editor. I'm only touching like 20% of scenes where I think it needs some tweaking to my taste, but if y'all would be interested I can share those edited video files

Quick update for the 1.5 of you who might want Tremolo to thrust as fast as the girls' reactions would make you think he is, I'm following through with modding scenes up through Chapter 8.

I'm through all of Chapters 1-7 and starting chapter 8, should be done by next Thursday or so. Here's a breakdown of what I changed so far. I general I focused more on characters I like, and didn't really touch the anal scenes since it's not my thing:

Chapter 8 is going to take a little while to parse all the way through. How/where should I upload these when I'm done?

You might be right i might be putting my feelings in to my response but also common sense. Relationships are hard to keep going. Why do you think divorce rates are so high? And you think you can have a third person to add to the mix? Most people not all but most people when entering a relationship have certain goals like marriage or kids or both or not at all. She wants kids but the other doesn't or 1 wants marriage but the other 2 doesn't. It's hard enough with 2 people to come to terms with their wants and needs so a 3rd person will be just that much harder. Sure in a RARE case it is possible to all 3 to have same wants and needs. The odds not favorable to work or you would hear of it more.

Well as show Jaime went back to crazy in the final season I assume that route leads to a Jade ending.

GoT Season 8 is like Star Wars from Disney.
I would never wish BaDIK to turn into something like that.
