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

knowing Dr Pink Cake last game, i was hyped for this one. but keep postponing to play it until there's enough episodes to binge. and boy was i right. Being A DIK certainly raised the bar on every aspects in this genre. even the mini games is enjoyable. i love this one so much to the point where i'm hesitant to play any other games knowing the others might be disappointing in comparison.

the greatest game of this genre, no doubt.
the story is amazing, choices matter, every episode is long and entertaining

just a great game that you can play in different ways for new experiences and I just wanna give this 5 stars I usually don't rate anything

What a masterpiece. It's been a long time since a game made me care about the characters and their fates. I seriously wish I had the means to donate to his patreon. You can tell the amount of work and passion put on this game, the animated scenes, the writing, the minigames, EVERYTHING. There's consequences for everything you do and I fucking love it.11/10 Best game ever made on renpy.

This is the second Adult Visual Novel I ever played. I started playing at the start of season 2, and have eagerly awaited each new update.

Graphically, it's a beautiful game. But the highlight for me is the Story & Dialogue. Having played multiple paths, there hasn't been one that I haven't enjoyed.

Let me preface by saying that I have played 100's of H-games. Flat, 3d, VR, VN, whatever. But this game is just a masterpiece. As has been said a million times, the writing is excellent. Before I tried playing the game myself I also read these raving reviews but I was like, who cares about the writing. It's a porn game! But once I picked up this game I was enjoying the story. A lot. I have been tearing up, laughing out loud like an idiot. It's really a great game. The theme looks juvenile (nerds vs jocks, let's bang chicks har har), but the story has a lot of depth and character development. Can't recommend this game enough. I'm thoroughly impressed. It's in my top 5 ever of H-games played.

I recently finished the latest update and holy shit!
I didnt think DPK or any dev for that matter would put the love making of two of the main women in one single update!
THE WAY is see it - he could have easily chosen the milking route, ie, give us jill's first blowjob and fingering next update and we'd have been adequately satisfied. He could have gotten rich in those months. BUT not DPK. Hes not a milker.
He knew the rapport and sexual tension between the two (MC AND JILL) had already been built and only the love making remained.
ABSOLUTE LEGEND, SIR
MASSIVE RESPECT TO YA

Scenes are beautifully posed and rendered but a bit VANILLA.
I hope DrPinkCake can add more kinks and fetishes to a few scenes in upcoming seasons.
The drama regarding Maya is a bit stretched out.
But overall one of the best games on this forum.

Best of the best. An amazing story/plot, interesting characters, breathtaking visuals and fantastic use of music. Its basically got it all. It's one of the few games which is practically a must-play for anyone who prefers more story-based adult VNs.

This game has it all ... The strong character backgrounds, the strong emotional connection to girls, the backlash of every decision, the talk it takes to woe those girls one likes (like, a lot!), the building of strong friendship through hardship, the carefree life of young adults getting unsupervised and having to make their first, then the second, then the third steps into being their own masters, the going head to head with antagonizing foes, the release of being enamored about being with somebody, the fresh blood of getting phisical with someone you really like ... the slow build-up.
One of the most fulfilling experiences around, this must be a gaming thrill for every hollyday. Game oN!

Bro that's like, one of the best games I've ever played in my shitty life. It goes far beyond the adult game genre. This author could be out there writing books and live off of the sales, and here we're just enjoying these stories for free. What a time to be alive.

There is really no reason to vote less than 5 stars IMO. The only negative thing i find with this game is the long free roaming events that takes lots of time. I wish it was a linear story instead of that. It's also a bit hard to navigate through the environment when you cant find the arrows in some cases and it's just too much for me.

What to say about this game. The true GOAT, the absolute magnus opus to this day from Dr PinkCake, who had showed true potential on his old games, but at this one, it is refined and polished to the very best. Character, designs, stories, dialogues, different view angles and poses, supporting characters that are not braindead robots who feels like they have their own soul and personalities and now with a robust variety of content and pathways. Praise the true champion of the forum in most aspects. Praise the creators. Definitely try it!

Dr. Pink Cake I have to hand it to you, this game has been amazing since the start. The story telling is by far the best in this genre of gaming. From the graphics and animations, to the wide variety of music. It has been most enjoyable. Wish you the best in the future my friend and hope you continue to put out rich content like BADIK.

Dr. Pink Cake never ceases to amaze me. The story line is the best I've seen of any VN. The details and how the characters enter and leave the game flows perfectly. The mini games are fun and my only gripe is there isnt more games like the one used to restore the mansion. I am a sucker for games that incorporates some kind of management. Thanks Dr.PinkCake for a well thought out VN that raises the bar well beyond most VN games.

For me, this game pretty much encapsulates what an erotic VN can look like at its best, if you commit an insane amount of time into development. (probably )
And that shouldn't mean that it is absolutely flawless, but it comes close enough for me.
The renders are absolutely gorgeous. Obviously this has the result, that the game is also very big (like 19gb). Largest renpy game i've seen to this day. But with the quality it delivers, that's fine.
One of the highlights for me is certainly the music. It really is so good! It also normally matches the mood of the scene very well. So a big plus there.
In regards to story line and branching: One of the very few games, where your choices actually have a meaningful impact on what scenes/girls you get, while at the same point being very transparent about it (DIK/CHICK score). There is a whole battle going on between DPC and the modders of this game i believe, because the game basically doesn't allow you to pursue every single girl in one playthrough. I think that is fine and adds a lot to the replay value of this game.

I could write a whole lot more, but i think for now i'll just say: 5 Stars - As close to a gold standard for an erotic VN game as we get atm on this site.

To begin with, it should be noted that this game is not perfect, it has its mistakes like other games

The renders are good sometimes they have their mistakes, The animations are great and it is great that the Dev is exploring more and not only using animations in sex scenes

The music is what can be highlighted the most in the game, DPC knows how to use the perfect songs at the exact moments in a few words the soundstrack of this game is one of the best I have heard

The characters in the game have their own personalities with pros and cons just like any person in real life. There will be characters that you may like as well as those that you may not like

The story has its flaws nothing is perfect but that does not mean that you want to leave the game in the middle of the stories whenever you start you want more and more until you realize that the credits appear and you still want more

It is one of the few games that I have been able to play in this forum that you can replay it so many times to exploit different routes, This game could easily go beyond 40 hours of play

Do I recommend this game? Yes! I recommend it, it is easy to say that you come for the "fap" but you stay for the plot

I really love the story and all the main girls and only some side character... I waited to play this game since it got release and I just cant wait anymore after acting lesson got finish... goodness me I cant wait for more..... while the game have so MAAAANY lewd scene, I cant even fap into it with how the music played each scene... like, would you jerk off to a romantic scene with a romantic music? fcking NO..... Dr PinkCake sure know how to deliver his story and I love every single bit of it... and as for now, I will contain my tears in case DPC will pull another ending like in Acting Lesson XD

This is the best porn VN/game out there. The renders are absolutely gorgeous, and the animations aren't bad either. The writing is excellent as well, with some real funny moments, and a way of keeping you interested with twists and character drama. Oh and your choices actually matter. The side stuff, like the apps on your phone that you can also "play", only add to immersion and quality of the content of the game.

Moreover, the updates come regularly and are often massive in content.

This is so good, if we would call this the golden standard of VNs, it wouldn't be fair to the whole goddamn industry because 99% of the VNs wouldnt ever come near this.

5+/5

This is an engaging story, with believable characters, more than just another porn game, : ) It has the allure of all the frat movies, with good archs for the characters, some of them quite interesting.
