I thought the Josy/Maya sex scene was the best sex for episode 11.
One gripe I have with Being a DIK is the lack of erotic writing in the sex scenes. They don't feel as immersive as they could. The author relies heavily on the renders and animations to sell the sex scenes with minimalistic writing.
I thought it was weird that the MC acted all disinterested during the first half of the HOT/DIK Christmas party and then fucked Becky, Tiffany, Tara, and Lilly at the end. He turned down numerous girls looking to finish their tasks during the first half of the party - it felt weird.
Overall, a solid episode. Lots of groups looking to destroy the DIKs. Lots of their enemies showed their faces in this episode. Was surprised with the nerds plotting against the DIKs though. They usually just take it. The MC has a decent relationship with some of the nerds which makes the betrayal feel odd. The MC used services from the nerds and also played Dungeons and Gremlins with them several times so this adds to the weirdness of their betrayal.
I wasn't too thrilled that I had to choose between performing at the faculty party or doing the combat sports tournament. I guess the author wants to branch the story some here.
Still waiting to fuck Heather and Sally.
Sad about what happened to Rio.
Aside from the plotline about everyone trying to destroy the DIKs, I didn't feel like the various love interest paths were advanced much at all. Maya and Zoey expressing their true feelings towards the MC was excellent though.
The drama/comedy is fine. The ILY events with Maya/Josy, Zoey (and
Sage) were the highlights outside of the main plot with the DIK conflict with Nick, and Quinn exposition, and of course, everything Sage. Everything else seemed to be basic exposition and filler:
- The cliffhanger with Bella's door was baffling and contrived
- The Magnar reveal ruins the mystery
- The Chad talk though promising went nowhere
- Maya's contract problem just gets solved, regardless of you getting it previous Episode
- Josy blows herself up for no reason with existentialism
- Jill and Bianca are on the path to character assassination, and now we have Cheat Points (why?) that have one good event (Sage) and the potential is questionable
- Exposition dump with Jill but no conflict
- The Bella rulebook buildup and reveal didn't change a thing
- So many new and old characters are in Others are now, or are to be, Side Girls
- Cathy and Nora take a backseat
- You need to replay your Sage path because the MC is too dumb to deal with the DIK Other's path
- Zoey The Destroyer comes by and blows up every path if you choose to let her
- Madame Rose still exists.
- Still can't expand our wallet. So now we have fish, picture frames, Jacob art, Madame Rose, and a Christas Present timer to spend money on.
- Quinn and Riona get next to nothing, from situations that are non interactive, when we were waiting a year to go on a crusade for Riona
- Becky gets a scene?
- Is Quinn a Main Girl/Main Path yet?
...but even the Maya/Josy date is precipitated on the previous episode's date. So one girl in the Throuple gets two dates, and an ILY. And if it was Josy, she still goes wah. And now Cheat Points. (Is DPC trying to tell us polygamy can't work despite the Other's path, Sage, and now Cheat Points?)
It really feels like a series of broken clocks, quantity over quality, odd timesinks of mini games, and probably around 50 freeroams. Like a major game release, it needs multiple day one patches, and feels unplayable without at least one mod.
