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

[FalconLover420]

Nick always tells the truth.
Jacob could have harbored a grudge against the Dicks for a long time because of his unsuccessful Hell Week. He was arrested while jogging naked.
I thought Jacob might be the traitor, but one thing keeps me from believing it.
When Tremolo wakes up at the Thanksgiving party, comes out of the tent, and meets Jacob. Jacob asks, "Are you with us? With the Dicks?" MC replies, "Of course, 110%. To which he replies, "Just checking." As if to explain that Jacob doesn't doubt our loyalty to the brotherhood.

This question wouldn't make sense if he were a traitor.

Unless one traitor checks to see if another is a traitor.
I don't think there are any traitors among the Dicks (including Nick). It's just paranoia. View attachment 5378822

It may seem in the earlier updates that jacob might be the traitor but after it showed that none of the diks are traitors just slightly stupid lol

Nick might have been actually searching the library for stuff that we do not know, Jacob is just looking out for his bros despite his hell week and he gets laid as a result.

The reason why I shit talk nick and not bringing him back is because he threw every dik under the bus when the thing was supposed to be he and tommy's deal.

If dating Bella, the secret is reveal to the frat and one small revelation can destroy her career. If not, he shit talks your contributions and neil's.

Who's this everyone you speak of? I personally love the free roams and the mini games. They make Being A DIK so much more mechanically engaging than your average VN.

Sure, they're probably not the best if all you're here for is wank material, but keeping the gameplay from being exclusively "click through dialogue until it's time to make a choice" and giving you certain scenes where you can explore the world at your own pace is cool. I think it's a great way to do parties especially, since you can wander around and chat with people at your own discretion just like you would in real life. And they make good save checkpoints, to boot.

Some mini games are alright ex I could give a shit about English, Science, or S1/2 Math. I like Mansion Repair, Party Planning, & S3 Math. The phone games except Brawler can all go away.

At least the one thing about BaD is Free Roam is not over done, other AVN's this is a massive issue with

Honestly the only issue with English is in S1/2 requiring you to click the letters rather than type them.

After pushing it back for many years, I kinda want to give this game a try after all. I just wanted to know, is the game finished at this point or not? I ask because I see some people say they finished it multiple times to see different endings, others say they eagerly wait for the next patch, I'm a bit confused lol

No, it's not complete.

Currently on episode 11 out of an expected 14-16 episodes.

Expect completion sometime after 2030 probably.

The game is in development. There are currently 11 episodes out of approximately 14.
The wait for the game's ending is a very long one, likely sometime in 2030 or later.
Episode 12 won't be released for another year. So play it now.
The different endings lead to different paths for the girls.

just typing words is boring if it was like a crossword puzzle or word search or something more interesting you know I might feel different but yes S1/2 English is worse

Um... thats what a traitor would do actually... what you point at is actually one of the proofs. And theres a lot of things that Jacob does are shady and unsettling for me, for example i have Never trusted do gooders and the ones who are trying hard to clear their names, Jacob is moving like a snake and Hiding like a rat.. calling the Dik code, complementing the MC etc etc and so on. Oh and by the way who do you think sent the sex tape of mc fucking jade to Stephen? It's Jacob. Also his chat with the MC after the fight in the MC room is shady as fuck about zoey and other things (again clearing his name) after nick point that out in the fight that and among other things Jacob done in the past. Maybe you are right he is seeking revenge. maybe he's a Jock in disguse(thats a big maybe)
And why would they come to Derek ane ashley? Why not Derek and Jacob doing the village idiot?

I'm 80% or maybe 75% sure Jacob is the traitor...

The nerds are another thing to discuss actually... and i think Sally is the lead to them if we mange to get on her good side( i think sally is very important in this one) what does this have to do with Jacob ? Idk but im just thinking here...

Sorry if my language is not that good I'm actually Russian Lol. Cheers.

You couldn't be more wrong! Nick was cornered and he throws punches at everyone.. thats a normal reaction in my book, Honestly i will do the same, if a group cornered me i will fight back stronger.
If he spread the Bella relationship with the MC outside of the frat then here he can be a traitor, right now he is ok to me.
Jacob is the snake one dude. He came into the MC to drag him on his side because MC has the respect of Rusty and tommy too. A traitor would kiss the Leader ass not attack him and thats what Jacob is doing with the MC, because the MC is a leader in the frat.

That's true, though at least English S3 is rapid to push through.

Привет, бра! (Hey, bro!)
Magnar sent the video. He has access to the DIK laptop.
Yes, Jacob's behavior is sometimes very suspicious.
There's another moment that proves he's not to blame for the destruction of DIK's house. His room and all his drawings suffered the most from the destruction. And Nick was fine. Even back then, I thought it was suspicious. But I still think Jacob is very loyal to both DIK and Tremolo.

I don't think he's Tri-Alpha. He didn't even want to be near them at the HOTs party.


I thought Sally would be needed for the conflict with Magnar. I've written about her and Magnar before.

Nerd, the final boss? Haha, he's a boy who's been bullied his whole life. Let him hack Sally's ass, oh no, Tremolo will do it first. I'll even add Nora's cat to mock him. They even call him Magnar, like Mage nerd.

I wrote about Buddy and Vinny in the post pinned in my signature.
We discussed Magnar a week ago. We came to the conclusion that Sally will give away all his plans and that will be the end of him.

If we're looking for traitors or someone spying on MC, then I think we should look for the answer in this room and in that Asian guy in a suit who's been watching us the entire game. For now, I'm looking for evidence. There's a ladder in the room for installing a camera. Magnar's letters. And Quinn's lollipops.

 

[Tommy vlada]

In what way was Nick cornered?

In what way ? Well if you are not a traitor for example and everybody is suspecting you and you know you didn't do anything plus you are Alone among this group of people and you have all their secrets yet you don't spread them and you are emotional about some chick that other dude is banging and yet again you are loyal but you had a moment of weakness and banged that chick and now they gang up on you for it and the rest is revealed, what would you do here ? And if that is not cornered than i know nothing lol.

And his last words were i should have left early sealed the deal for me because he dosint believe in their friendship anymore.
Nick is not good but he is ok actually.

Thats simple logic.. it might not be pretty but it comes wirh a soul Haha.

Alternative opinion, i'm increasingly leaning toward: There is no traitor. Cathy cluck, sextape are Mangar's actions, hacking the laptop. The DIKs are disunited; they have been PsyOp'd.

 

[grarg]

Did you really just do the "well at least I'm getting laid" routine?

Did you even read what I wrote?

And what's your criticism? Dude wanted me to "touch grass". I just did that today, like I do everyday. But apparently telling people off on here is too hard for them to counter. So I must be unable to grasp reality.

It is when you're taking numbers of tasks where each task is of unknown length and therefore assuming every task takes the same length. By your logic a drive from Washington D.C. to LA should take the same amount of time as a drive from D.C. to NYC because they're both the task of "driving somewhere", and if it takes longer I guess that driver is "milking" it...

No one is assuming each task is equal.

We are showing how his efficiency has decreased.

And we are reminding everyone he is doing it all himself. Which is why it's a Bloated Milk Machine.

You mean all that fan art that uses DPC's base renders as a reference for the AI to then slightly alter and is still noticeably lower quality? So very much not what you're demanding DPC do which is use AI to create the initial renders themselves (which tend to look like shit).

I'm sure some of it is bad. But the fan art section is pretty good, and even when some use ComfyUI or others, it's a pretty decent job. I'm not saying DPC could use it and only, but he should definitely consider it.

You know. If you're trying to be...efficient?

Who's this everyone you speak of? I personally love the free roams and the mini games. They make Being A DIK so much more mechanically engaging than your average VN.

It's been mentioned in this forum for years, in the ratings page, on reddit, etc. It makes replaying slow and painful. Ditto with minigames.

Sure, they're probably not the best if all you're here for is wank material, but keeping the gameplay from being exclusively "click through dialogue until it's time to make a choice" and giving you certain scenes where you can explore the world at your own pace is cool. I think it's a great way to do parties especially, since you can wander around and chat with people at your own discretion just like you would in real life. And they make good save checkpoints, to boot.

Again, I've heard the exact opposite argument.

A VN's game play is essentially making dialogue choices. It would make sense if there was a rhythm mini game (and there almost was) as there's a fighting mini game. To coincide with the MC's character. Not sure how party planning matches it, but it is part of the story of "Being a DIK", and arguably are some of the better designed puzzles per episode.

Lord knows why he invented a puzzle box.

 

[Vega101]

And why would they come to Derek ane ashley? Why not Derek and Jacob doing the village idiot?

I'll add, although this has already been practically shown in the game.
Sally used to spy for Magnar. She was at every party. They remotely hacked the DIK laptop. Nick was unlucky enough to be sitting on his laptop instead of partying.

Then Sally stopped spying and defected to Tremolo.
Magnar is trying to quarrel between all the fraternities. He sends photos of Ashley cheating on Derek. To drive a wedge between the Jocks and the DIK.

 

[jd8097619]

So I must be unable to grasp reality.

Given that you keep referring to yourself as "we" now...

You quite clearly don't have a clue about AVN development and every suggestion you've made is quite simply awful. Amazingly enough most people here would prefer a game be excellent than looking like fucking garbage "efficient".
