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

[Better Cock Spock]

DPK really needs to hire people. There's no reason development needs to take this long with the amount of success this game has

All that success is exactly why he won't hire more people. Feeds his ego more, he's in total control of the project, and of course gets all the money to himself.

Right. I thought it might be, but wasn't sure. I'd call it easily accessible for anyone who knows about the video. Much easier than the laptop that is kept in the safe after the Cathy cluck.

I don't think the original video is still on the old phone. But that's just an assumption, I hope MC isn't that much of a fucking moron to leave something like that un-deleted. I'd also hope the phone has some sort of protection, otherwise yeah anyone could waltz in and gain access to it, which is extra stupid after what happened with Cathy.

 

[Roger-a-Dale]

It's obvious that Stephen got it from the laptop.

Which is much harder to access.

I agree, DPK definitely need to hire some people.
DPC on the other hand is perfectly fine on his own

Which is much harder to access.

There's someone who's spying on the DIKs, it's literally part of the main plot of the game, logically it's this person who also leaked the video to Stephen.

 

[Better Cock Spock]

yes and no

if you suffer two thefts to say that the thief is the same seems to me quite a gamble...

those are 2 actions that have very little in common apart from Rusty's laptop (and for Jade it's not 100% certain) as a method and intentions. so instead of explaining who else did it you should explain why

I see it as equally complicated to explain why Cathy's photo is published without a second thought, while Jade's much more striking video is instead kept hidden or even ‘donated’ to Burke

is Burke the culprit? then you have to explain to me why he wanted to ruin Cathy too
was it Nick/Vinnie? then you need to explain to me their connection to Burke.

the only profile that fits both of them is the Nerds, but there you have to invent a whole new story, putting a whole new pawn on the chessboard.

I'm not saying it's not possible that there's only one culprit, just that it's not such an obvious deduction, even taking into account DPC's habit of deliberately inserting false clues

But like you said, another person with a grudge against the DIKs (not that there's a shortage) needs to have a reason to be on the chessboard. If it is a separate entity who so far has only given Stephen the video, what are they doing on paths where you didn't fuck Jade or share the video?

Now Spock I'm all for giving MC the benefit of the doubt for not seeing the Sage is a Burke thing coming, but can we really assume he is smart/paranoid enough to delete everything on his old phone?

Yes there is obviously a spy, but at the moment the laptop is kept in a safe and only three people know the new combination: Rusty, Tommy and MC. The phone is a much easier target.

it's not that it's a problem. these different opposing parties already exist (the Jocks, Burke, Quinn, Priscilla, Vinnie, the girls in the dorm etc).

if Jade's video exists they take the opportunity and use it, if it doesn't exist they continue with what they were doing.

like Burke: it's not that without the video he's on the street begging, it's simply that with the video he divorces Jade keeping more money, without it he divorces the same...

Since his new phone was a gift and not a straight replacement, I'd say he merely turned off the old phone, with no regard for "information hygiene." But it should still require a PIN or password or something upon turning back on (again I hope, maybe the smartphone is too old for that?).

Maybe everyone has teamed up to oppose the DIKs. B&R's own Sinister Six, or Secret Society, or another nerd term for villain groups

according to DPC's modus operandi, it is much more likely to have something to do with Jam Jam's ‘lost’ phone

Most definitely, but Roger isn't wrong in saying that MC's old phone is a potential source for the Jade video. Although he'd have to be even dumber than he already is if anyone can access it.

we are in the college where they gave him a used phone without even deleting the address book... it's a college of retarded autistics and you're worrying about MC who doesn't even have a television at home....

This is true, but considering how high tech the methods have to be to get the video from the laptop I don't think you can rule out an ability to break into a phone.

Right now I see five options for why the laptop and not the phone.

1. The spy is old school and knows how to break into a safe, but not a phone.

2. The Cathy Clucker installed spyware and the laptop is remotely accessible when connected to the net.

3. The spy made a copy of the video before Rusty put it back into the safe after it was used in the evaluation party.

4. The spy has in some way obtained the safe combination.

5. Tommy is the spy.

'Lost' ??

More likely stolen by that cheeky little fucker Franz at the request of his feminist overlords overladies.

No one ever suspects the cute little bunny.

Uhh excuse me, you mean "their", not "his". Franz is non-binary. Get it right you bigot!!!

The guide is up-to-date for Episode 10 – Calm Before the Snow​

Casiope's guide is hands down the best guide for the game, and I know many of you rely on it. The amount of effort and dedication he put into creating such an incredible guide is truly unmatched.

I asked around to see if anyone knew where he was, but sadly, I didn’t have any luck. With episode 10 out and no update in sight, I decided to take it upon myself to give it a shot.

I’ve done my best to maintain the high standard of his work, though I’ll admit, I’m not as talented as he is. Not every section has been updated, but here’s what I’ve worked on:

• Choices, conditions, and consequences for Episode 10
• Pack Quest #5
• Special Renders/2D Arts and Vault codes for Episode 10
• Added sections covering the new minigames

I had some issues converting his PDF into a modifiable document to update, so if you notice any sections of the guide with incorrect formatting, please direct message me, and I’ll fix them. Same goes with any other issues you notice. Consider this a draft since it’s my first time working on something like this, but hopefully, this guide helps!

Please show some love for Casiope by giving his original post a like and sharing your appreciation for the amazing guide he created. I hope my update doesn't detract from the quality of his work.

The guide is up-to-date for Episode 9 – Vixens​

Happy new year! The first draft has been written with all the choices, conditions and consequences; Pack Quest #4 and Special Renders/2D Arts. Although the Party planner minigame is postponed because it requires much time to be tested. An effort has been made to readibily expound the free roam rounds and their tasks as per your love status. I also removed references that have no effect in season 3 but to tweak some rare lines of dialogue.

This guide will be continuously amended in the next monthes according to your feedback.

My walkthrough focuses on the player’s choices and features links and references to better understand their long‐term consequences in the story. Whether you are playing Being a DIK for the first time or want the utmost with the love interests, your questions will be answered. Thanks for adding a Like if you value it. Good reading and enjoy the game!

Uhh excuse me, Franz is not a "he", Franz is gender neutral. Get it right you bigot!!!

I highly doubt this is Franz's attitude. Forcing her views on her pet is yet another sign that Dany is not a true feminist.

Roger's right, I checked with him. He definitely identifies as a male.

But, Dany told him if he didn't identify as non-binary, he'd be identifying as stew, so he plays along.

Dany is such a cunt. (I refuse to use the word bitch in a derogatory fashion. Female dogs are much nicer than female humans.)
