I don't think I will be playing BAD for longer. First, obviously, every update has become 1 and a half year longer. Some progression with certain characters will take us 3 years to happen or even longer.
I absolutely agree that the game takes too goddamn long to make.

I realize some of that is because of how complex it is—how many alternate timelines is DPC juggling by now?—and that’s legitimate; I have no beef about that; that’s a feature not a bug. I’ve played too many games where your “choices” are bullshit, with no consequences whether you say the nice thing or the rude thing, and you’re forced to fuck every girl the developer throws at you. DPC has fully embraced alternate paths, and that’s the only reason I’ll play this game dozens of times, whereas other games only need one runthrough—assuming I don’t quit first from frustration or boredom.

But some of that is because of three things that only DPC gives a shit about: detailed, high-quality renders, including 60fps video; minigames; and, increasingly, recording his own music for the game. (Though I get why he’s recording his own music—it’s hard to find quality community-commons stuff out there, and artists who don’t mind that their stuff is being used for a porn game.) This shit takes a lot of time! But some of you love the minigames, so that part’s your fault.

Some plot have been taking part of the game for too long.
Also absolutely agree. I haven’t played ep 11 yet, but the spoilers make it clear Maya’s student-loan deal was resolved pretty damn quickly—whether Tremolo stole the documents or not. Pretty much every plot thread that we’ve been fretting over for years can be wrapped up just as easily. But isn’t that typically the case with mysteries?—they’re all annoyingly simple once they’re solved, and all fan speculation regularly blows it way out of proportion. These mysteries got stretched out over years now, so we falsely suspected it was something proportionally huge and dark… and no they’re not; none of em are. Shit, the game’s about college kids who think everything’s a big deal.

Oh, and he is still adding new characters, that he will probably spend some time on. Lets not even forget about that.
I haven’t. Zoey got added to the game in a big way—and just after Tremolo picked a girl! I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s another one coming. Probably Yoga Girl. My wife thinks she’s gonna be like the Mother in How I Met Your Mother—she’s a big mystery for most of the show, Ted falls for her in the very last episode, and there’s your happy ending… till the producers fucked it up and killed her off, which I’m still annoyed at. Maybe she’s the potential happy ending in case Tremolo fucks it up with the other girls; maybe he’s destined to fuck it up, one way or another, with every last one of them. Don’t know yet! That should piss everyone off. But hey, it’s DPC’s game to fuck up… once he completes it in 2035 or so.

I am taking it slow. I got to Christmas party and it is hell of convenient that main love interests in the game skip the party and go to Bella's. Because God forbid Sage on or not on Sage path take part in competitions and activities. I understand dev is walking a tight rope as not to angry some insecure people, and I do see them getting together after they talked about celebrating more together, so good on dev to set it up before. As for the update so far is pretty good however some of the drama at the beginning was a bit annoying and the contract resolution was so stupid, yet I am used to it in this story and I don't expect more so I am not disappointed.
Fuck that cube and math mini game.

How you guys get Sage to say she loves you? I find her route so far pretty odd and i think it's the MG that takes a lot of branching

One possibility is that her husband does indeed return, and finds the aftermath of derek being derek, and looks in the previously locked room.
Most things this season have been a bit of bait and switch. We have the Zoey running scene, we have the actual set up of the Xmas thing being nothing but Derek, we have the contract amounting to nothing really as it turns out her dad sees what an arse he's been.
There's a chance this again will turn out to be nothing as the teases have done before.

I'm getting an error anytime I open text with Zoey? Anyone have the same issue?
Updated Scrappy's mod should fix it, if for whatever reason it didn't then https://f95zone.to/threads/being-a-dik-v0-11-1-drpinkcake.25332/post-16384528

If you go single path. Can you fuck all the main girls
No, you can fuck all EXCEPT main girls (assuming that by solo path you mean final decision in ep8)

One possibility is that her husband does indeed return, and finds the aftermath of derek being derek, and looks in the previously locked room.
Why you keep talking about husband return, Maya opened door to previously locked room, nothing more... It's not like someone was ringing to doors and there was some mysterious guy standing or something.

There are 2 routes where Sage doesn't say it back, if you have less than 22 RP, which is probably insanely hard to get, I had 44 :ROFLMAO: If you are playing her Route and picking answers that piss her off on purpose, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you are doing it wrong

And the threesome route. I am curious when it happens, how it will happen.:unsure:

well there is sort of a scene with her. Nothing to serious tho she just straddle and makeout with you.
And you can caress her butt if you're on the Others path.

Who might it be then that we see in the intro and has a reason to be at Bella's house? The sleeves the dark figure wears aren't the same of any the characters that were at the dinner. (both male or female)
