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

[Chillout1984]

The reason on why she didn't break up with Chad was not that Sage is possessive, or that she sees other people as a threat. Is that she doesn't want to abandon him. She doesn't want to let go that easily. That's why she wanted to find out who the "bitch" was. She needed something to be justified. Or at least that's what she told herself. Again, Sage is complicated and with a lot of fears despite her out-going and carefree personality.

Yeah, in the heart to heart with Maya she also admits that, that her outgoing personality is just a mask but in reality she almost always has her walls up.

I know, but it's just I saw way more different people speak highly of her after release of ep 11 than in the 2 months up to the release of that episode.

Well I think because of more prominent screen time and it was confirmed that Cinderella is the thirsty Ghoul in ep9 other path. So she became an overnight sensation. Still I give credit to were it's due and Better Cock Spock and MiltonPowers made her popular to this thread when they keep posting this mysterious yoga girl in the yoga session. Especially Spock with his continuous simping.

that's why she was at the topless panty party with her boyfriend and four of his exes

But they were never "official" just like Zoey

I also wonder... We can say to JB during halloween that Zoey is a childhood friend instead of an ex... Why in just about EVERY OTHER conversation talking about their connection that is ignored and they say Zoey is MC's ex... -_-

They become official couple in ep10

 

[John Ness]

By the way, "topless panty party with her boyfriend and four of his exes" is beyond stupid even for a porn game.

They become official couple in ep10

The reason the game doesn't treat the 4 you don't pick as exes during the interaction between the group is because it's optional to date them. Zoey is treated differently because her & Tremolo's relationship exist regardless of the chosen path. It's a game limitation. Not a narrative issue.

Because if you date all 5 women at the same time, they all feel they are in a relationship with Tremolo. Some handle the breakup better than others. Sage, Maya & Bella handle it fairly maturely. Josy does not handle the breakup well at all. And Jill is devastated. Just because Sage, Maya, & Bella don't freak out, doesn't mean they weren't hurt or devastated by not being chosen. You can tell they were.

In a real world scenario, Sage would be a hypocrite to have an issue with Zoey, but have no issues with Josy & Maya. And if she found out about Jill & Bella, the same would be true. The only difference between Zoey & the rest is time.

It wouldn't be that stupid if they just did it at their dorm, sorority or frat while drunk considering this is based in a college setting...

The stupid part is them being tipsy at best and the oldest one (who is even their teacher at this point in time) being the instigator.

I don't think we played the same game bro

Sage ILY scene and Lily Gentle completely void this, they're textbook erotic and have a ton of meaning to them and that's just 2, the quality has improved massively over the course of the game. The scenes are just getting better now that real connections and bonds are deepening

"Quality improved massively"? Have you seen that there was not a single rendering with clothes posed decently, some are really too much wrong to even pass the always "very flexible" DPC's approach? That's worse than first episodes. Sage had a completely broken back in one scene, she would be dead or condemned to a wheelchair for the rest of her life. While shiny teeth plague continues and there is not a single cloth touching the body of a character.
Winter jackets looked so horrible, not just on girls (boobs area was most affected) but Tremolo's too. But pants were plagued too, strangely.
"Textbook erotic"? LOLWUT? I have yet to play Lily's path, but where is eroticism in Jill's and Sage's scenes? The lewd dialogues are lacking and boring. That's not erotic even for the low standards of a horny 13 years old boy.

I only quoted point 4 of your post, the sex scenes

I didn't bring up posing or the mini games because there are definitely some issues with comically large proportioned characters and clothes, never play with mini games because I hate them

erotic definition:


How do you not see any of this in Sage scenes? even Jill has her moments, what's your definition of erotic?
I am talking purely from the perspective of MC and not real life because this game has gone beyond just a bog standard porn game

Dialogue is just your standard sex talk sure, I didn't disagree with everything you said but to say there's no improvement in the sex scenes is wild

maybe somebody spread that info because that is what mc told them before. I believe during talk with Bella in cafeteria mc talk about Zoey. Also I believe Derek knows. She could say that by herself when interract with people just without any bad thoughts. if somebody like Becky hear this she spread it as fast as Arieth spread STDs

 

[grarg]

All of this ignores Sage's personality. If Sage were like this she would have broken up with Chad the minute she found the panties in his gym bag. Instead she hung on to the idea of finding out who Chad's bitch was. Sage is not the type to just let go. The subject of Zoey is not over and done with.

I've seen that you have trouble understanding this and there really is no point in discussing this with you when you misunderstand the characters on such a fundamental level.

So because Sage found panties in Chad's gym bag...she's hung up on the idea of finding out who Chad's bitch was...
...and as such, Sage is not the type to let it go?

And you're comparing this to Zoey?
1. MC's old girlfriend is Zoey. Tada! Sage has found out! Mystery solved. Comparison finished. MC wasn't scared about telling Sage because there is no conflict. There is no romantic relationship with Zoey. She's just an old friend to the MC.
2. She's talked to him about it said reveal. She was scared, and now she isn't.
3. Her issues with it are resolved. She trusts him.

Problem solved. Combined with the MC dealing with Zoey, choosing Sage, and even having a potential ILY both ways in the process.

While it's possible I don't understand Sage as a character as well as you do, you don't seem understand the comparison, or the narrative, as it has shown us.

Your reluctance to talk about it only shows me your assessment is wrong, and can't admit to it. In no way am I stretching the narrative. That's why I went and posted screen caps showing that Sage was only concerned about being cheated on, like she was with Chad. She was scared of that. The MC sees Zoey as a old friend, and nothing more, but didn't explain himself as clear as he could to Sage at his house. He's resolved of Zoey's issues, and is quite confident in his feelings for Sage. He would do this with any girl, and giving Zoey more attention in the narrative is foolish unless the narratives gives us a reason to. So far, there is none.

Sage is no longer scared. Her boyfriend is still hers, and he's not fooling around. Crisis averted. There's no need to tell her about Zoey's confession because there's no problem for MC or Sage.

I need to look it up, but out of memory I believe with the Bella talk MC says that he couldn't really say what they were, just that they had fun together. Same with Derek I believe.

Like I said, I need to look up the dialogue again to be sure.

I agree, I can't remember every word there. But as I remember there render how they have sex during that Bella talk, so maybe it was something like "I wasn't mature enough to understand feeling" and Bella like "yeah, relationship".

Possessive is the wrong word. Obsessive and stubborn fit better. Sage was into Chad for 2+ years. It isn't easy to let go of that. That's why she refuses to really consider just breaking up with him. She finds the panties and wants more concrete evidence. She gets the video and wants to know who is at the other end of the call. These were excuses Sage clung to instead of admitting to herself that her relationship with Chad was already over. 2+ years having been a waste is a scary idea to contemplate. The question of if she had screwed up somewhere or the whole thing having been a mistake from start, isn't that fun either.

Yeah, but there is also a thing called "friends with benefits". You wouldn't really call that a relationship before you make it official (at least most people wouldn't). Imo they were just that, especially since as far was I understand Zoey, she never really "investigated" her feelings until episode 10 when MC told her how he really felt at the BBQ.

sure, but I just speculating how that ex. info could spread.

I did not enter this thread since the 7th March, I was able to play a few routes only in the last days. I haven't read many posts but here is my short review about EP 11:

You're just mad because Riona is alive and you can no longer make your insensitive jokes
