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

[Macky009]

She probably has some connections or runs it on behalf of someone that wouldn't have a problem sorting out a scumbag fucking with their business.

I wouldn't be surprise at all if this is all true. Especially when I saw her in ep10 during Sage date event.

 

[Chillout1984]

Dude I won't stop you on sumping to whoever you are simpung even if that is a different species. But don't turn into another Darkwen and having a catchphrase about your L.I.

That's the thing were I disagree with you, I can't completely forgive Beth and the others. Cathy is one of the nicest professor in school yet what they did to her is so messed up. Just to take revenge on the diks they've posted the picture of Cathy all over the campus. Which push Cathy over the edge and resign. I can sympathize to Beth and co. to what happen to them but I still can't totally forgive what they did to Cathy

We only know a bit of the personalities of 5 teachers on campus though:
Jade and Stephen (both bitches)
Isabella (the middle ground)
Philip and Cathy (very nice)

Other than that, like I said: The only reason I would forgive Beth (and also the other redhead from the flashback, don't remember her name) is that I'm a simp for redheads as long as nobody is killed.

I will choose Cathy over Beth as the better looking Redhead.

Chillout1984 please do not turn into this kind of person

the relationship is more often unsuccessful than successful, but the point is that the author made the main character an unwitting accomplice and one of the reasons for this drama. They are in discord, good, but don't make the main character a villain for the sake of cheap drama.

But he isn't.

Josy goes wah if:
MC is in a relationship with her.
MC is in a relationship with Maya and Josy.
MC is in a relationship with anyone else.
MC isn't in a relationship/goes Others.

Josey's existential crisis has no influence from player agency or the narrative. Josy will always go wah. It comes out of nowhere in Episode 11.

 

[BigTTiger]

Does the Ep 9 Sage scene change at all if you didn't fool around with Jade? Surprised that's not one of the 50%/100% ones.

Nope it doesn't change except MC doesn't have the internal monologue about feeling guilty about fucking both of em

 

[Chillout1984]

Chillout1984 please do not turn into this kind of person

That will never happen. Although i'm a simp for Madame, i will never use that phrase every time nor will I make even half of my posts about her

 

[BigTTiger]

Has anyone got list of screenshots showing the locations of all of the special renders in Episode 11 and who there for???

There's actually a fan walkthrough for ep11 that tells you where all the special renders are in most cases you just can't skip a lot of scenes, or you'll miss the renders just do a search of ep11 walkthrough and it should pull it up.

I didn't like the feeling lost part of it but this isn't out of no where it be known for long time Josy got some insecurities now she got a way out of it. So to me this makes sense plus she talks about it and making a great scene with her made even better with the I love you.
The funny part it gets called Josy existential crisis yet she pretty happy with what she doing everyone should have a crisis like that then

 

[Dabadim]

It comes out of nowhere in Episode 11.

Not entirely out of nowhere. She’s been having doubts about her existence since the very beginning of the game. Unsure about college, where to go, what to do. Her family is a mess, (like everyone is in this game since that’s the main theme) and the basic bitch thing is a fairly on the nose criticism one could throw at ms sunshine. The character is very insecure, about her physical appearance and overall physique which you learn on her arc is rooted in her mom’s comments about her height or lack of it from someone who’s heavy into the fashion industry.

Also she’s the LI which is by far the most affected by player character choosing another route than hers. The character is fragile, so it was about time for her to reach a breaking point imo.

Please tell me when Josy's been having "doubts about her existence since the very beginning of the game."

I believe I had an argument with someone who thought the same. Here's a reference to that.

But that's not really explored. Her relationship with Tommy is almost inexistant and her parents have less screen time than Lynette, Lana or Rox ( and they're all dead ). DPC should have put more emphasis on her family problems or her the tension with Tommy rather than making her an influencer.

So when will the MCs life go to hell?

Based on the opening of the game it seems like he thinks back on his time with his dad with fondness. Suggesting that he would encounter hardships later on. Yet we haven't seen anything like that yet. The MCs life has so far been amazing. A slight dip with Maya and Josy and some other things but that was temporary. He is either loved, friends with or respected by everyone.

You might think that the opening of the game was made when DPC was postprocessing the AL storyline and later on changed the story like the gardener writer he seems to be. Maybe. The story became a lot more popular than DPC probably anticipated. But lets say that something terrible will happen. In that case what will it be?

If we go by DPCs previous work then it probably relates to a major death and a major twist. A tragic event caused by a character that everyone knows. There are problems with this however. The death needs to be meaningful which means that it should involve a major character, specifically a female character. But all the major female characters have a pretty big fanbase so it doesn't really work unless it is done at the very end of the game.

So lets assume that Bella is the character who snaps and kills a major character. Maya and the MC find something terrible in the closet. I guess it is possible. Bella holds everyone at gunpoint and kills on of them, for example Maya. Maybe Bella was intended to be the original psycho. But since it has been so long does it even make sense anymore? What about the people who chose Bella as a LI. Futhermore if that happens then the game more or less has to end by episode 12, which is theoretically possible I suppose.

There are a few reasons why this could be possible. Mayas student loan situation was resolved in ep11 and she even thinks that it seems to good to be true. It would make some sense from a narrative perspective if she died right after that when her story line has concluded. Second, whenever "future MC" narrates the story is has been about Bella, which might suggest that she caused his problems.

And also the Zoey decision at the end of episode 11. Now if you choose to return to Zoey then that would probably change up the story in a major way. Not only does DPC have to juggle the story of the previous break ups but he also needs to write a new story line where the MC breaks up with Jill, Maya and Josy, Bella or Sage. But it has to be consistent with if you chose to reject Zoey and stay with your LI. So the friend group has to remain regardless which doesn't make much sense considering how much of a betrayal the breakup would be. Depending on your choices you would have broken up with Maya and Josy, Sage and Bella earlier. And then you break up with Jill. Why would any of them want to be the MCs friend after that? Even the MC thinks that the christmas dinner might be the last dinner they ever have together after he chooses Zoey.

But...if something major happens like a death then the Zoey decision might not matter as much. It would literally be the last christmas dinner together because something traumatic happened to all of them.

I almost convinced myself when I wrote the last part. But I still doubt it since there are many other loose story threads that would become irrelevant if a big thing like that happened. The alphas vs the DIKs, tri betas plot against the other frats, the drug plot, the MCs mom etc. Not even mentioning the party mini game that is not resolved.

I think it makes more sense if this is an overblown cliffhanger like we have seen many times before, cough Jade. Bella probably just has something weird in the closet, like a mannequin dressed up as her husband or dead snakes hanging from the ceiling.

Maybe the tragic event is caused by Vinny later on? It's also possible but so far he seems so detached to the main friend group and also it would seem a bit obvious. Not to mention that we barely know him and it would probably not hit as hard as AL.

Either way the MCs life seems to go a bit too well at the moment. At some point DPC has to decide if this is going to be an story about a guys awesome life in college or acting lessons 2.

As I understand it, in order to advance in the game you need to be as big a dick as possible. As an example, in the first episode at the party you required to talk to all the guests. But if you are a nerd some of the guests refuse to talk to you and you can't leave the party. There is no game further. Overall, I regretted downloading this game.

DPC already said it won't be like Acting Lessons and the game is more akin to Road Trip and American Pie.

There is no party in the first episode of this game, nor can you play as a nerd. You in the right thread bro?

 

[Josh M Spicer]

A lot of things could go wrong at any moment for our dear MC.

Bella Route: Their relationship is discovered and Bella is fired and/or arrested (spitballing on that one). Also that weird door that has everyone shook and Bella just kinda like "whelp that one's out." Also also James coming back.

Jill Route: If you chose not to cheat, the reveal of the MC's heritage could lead to them being related in some capacity but not close enough for it to matter but it matters to Jill (unlikely given DPC's reaction to this before) OR maybe Tybalt responds to what Jill did with force and gets her expelled or something. Gonna be honest hers is the hardest to crack.

Sage Route: Sage graduates and they drift apart. Or maybe any of his exploits are revealed with Jade or him cheating with everyone else. Or if you're a nice boy who never cheated, maybe Sage just realizes that she needs to take her future serious and doesn't see the MC in it anymore.

Josy/Maya Routes: This is is already one step away from falling apart anyway. The MC could realize he doesn't want anything to do with this mess and backs out, or maybe Maya takes agency of her life and wants to solo the MC. Or perhaps Josy does the same thing and wants the same thing.

Any Other Route: MC's connection to the HOTs alone could lead to something bad. Vinny's already confronted the MC once and knows his connection to Tommy (at minimum). Throw in a Quinn or Lily route and suddenly the drug dealers have a weakness (the MC) to exploit.

first time hearing this. I was doing DIK, Chick and neutral runs but never have problem... who refuse to talk?
