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

[shazba]

There are thousands of variables because DPC itself wrote them into a status report. They just don't understand what the variables are about.

Example
DPC itself brings a variable into play.

Favorite song is a local variable and people are global variables. Now DPC can use this local variable multiple times and assign it to one or more global variables by putting them in compounds or nesting them. (Before you ask, look for a tutorial on variables and value assignments in Python).

Global variables: Troy, Maya, Sage, Isabella, Jill, and MC.
Local variable: Favorite song with guitar

For all global variables (people), the MC can play this favorite song (lolcal variable) with his guitar.

Neil is the constant because it is his favorite song from the beginning. Now the MC can play this song in EP1 for himself first. The connection is made. (I assume it's to decide if Neil is his biological father).

Then the MC can play the guitar in the presence of Troy. Now if the MC played the guitar for Neil and Troy, Neil has become a father again and the MC has a half-brother.

I need to shorten the explanation a bit. I will use the DnG from EP6 to do this.
Josy is dying on all ends. Why, really? She is the only one the MC never plays the favorite song for on his guitar. In EP7, they get a song for themselves. So Josy and the MC are definitely not related.

But that's not true for Sage, Maya, Isabella (Ice Queen) and Jill. For all of them, the MC can play the favorite song on his guitar.

Now we can insert a nested function here. For this we use sex as a local variable. For all 4 of them, the MC can avoid sex if the player wants to. But as soon as he has sex with one of the 4 LI's (Maya, Sage, Jill, Isabella), there is no more relatedness. (Incest. This is a constant) The less kinship the MC has, the poorer he will end up. That is why there is Quinn, who is not a LI and can never become one. With her, the MC can prevent sex with Maya, for example. He just goes to the restaurant. But if the MC goes the way of Quinn now, he will become a poor wretch. He will lose everything.

I hope that it is understandable to some extent. If not, I really don't know how to explain it.

Thats because its a load of horseshit.

You only confirm one thing for me. Google for a tutorial for Python programming.

Python programming. You've really lost it.

You're not even talking about storytelling and the narrative now.

Wow. You did understand something. We are getting closer, to your understanding of the matter.

Now guess why DPC keeps us guessing about much of the story and how you might find out?

The sheer weight of the irony of you being patronizing about understanding should cause the entire website to implode on itself.

The spasmodic attempt to insult me and imply ignorance doesn't really work, but it shows me that you still don't get it.

I've been pretty consistently insulting your nonsense. Not in bursts. That you can't even recognize that in your acid trip of a world view says it all.

The joke is that I recognized it.

But on the basis of this you should actually recognize, so that your statement does not rob me of sleep, because I know from whom it comes. From a person who has no idea and is ignorant. And such a person cannot insult me.

I would like to ask you to think about what I wrote above, but in your case I doubt it, so you understand.

I am sorry, but that is the way it is.

Sure you did. You were just pretending to be retarded, right?


Like I said. The website should implode on itself from your posts. The staggering inanity continues to bemuse me.

Sorry dudes, couldn't resist.

 

[tipsytopsy]

As I suspected, you have not understood. The proof on my part, about your person, is provided.

No one can understand your nonsense. Like Shazba posted above, you just look like a moron keeping on with your horseshit. But you know, keep on being the court jester and laughed at, not with.

 

[felicemastronzo]

My uneducated guess here is that James indeed is(was) a soldier who went MIA. Possibly killed during a bombing or shot in combat, and his body never been able to be retrieved, rotting away in some middle-eastern desert, or just abducted by aliens. Who knows. Could possibly explain the soldier MC saw during his first visit at Bella's, being completely smashed. Maybe he saw something in the room that reminded him of a soldier. I can't exactly remember the scene as it's been quite a while since I've last played through it, but my first impression was pretty much what I've stated above.

Would explain why Bella can't move on, being heavily traumatized and in a way still waiting(or hoping) for James to return back home.

as I said before there are really too few elements to choose or discard hypotheses.

surely in this moment there is the suspense for a return of james in the worst moment, but it would be a very difficult twist to manage, in the end he is Bella's husband and MC little more than a lover, so it may well be that whatever was his fate we will not see him anyway never

I expect a flashback for Bella, even if they have rarely been used to reveal anything, but only to explain things that we already knew.

Sorry dudes, couldn't resist.

First, beautiful gif Shazba. Because I have exhausted my quota of like for today, you get it this way.

Message understood and I leave tipsytopsy alone.

As for the soldier - as a person who is guilty of consuming alcohol in large quantities (infrequently, but still) I can say that it was nothing more than an unconscious projection of what MC saw in the picture in the same room onto a mannequin (this kind of nonsense happened to me once). The picture itself is not shown to us, but its frame is visible. Later, Isabella will hide the picture, apparently in the same place where she hid all the photos except for the one in her bedroom. My opinion is that she hid all this in a closed room and that is why it is closed (Jill is surprised when MC says that the room is closed, it means it was open before).

In this picture, most likely there was a photo of her husband, who is apparently a military man.

And MC didn't said he should've ran away - he said "I would have called out for help" (you literally can see it on your own pics) what means later he knew what happened to Isabella (it doesn't have to be something dire).

I know MC didn't directly say "he should've ran away" what I meant by that was him saying "I should've called out for help" sounds more like MC fearing for his own safety instead of MC reffering to Bella needing help...hence why I said it sounds eerie, I'm not saying its something bad it could be something totally unrelated to Bella as a person but just from the way he structured that sentence it doesn't sound like anything positive for him.

DPC going through the f95zone thread, watching us starting to bicker against each other partly because the release of episode 8 takes longer than the previous ones.

Oh... don't know which scene you are referring to, but Maya has one scene which require NOT to be a massive chick or dick to unlock... according to the walkthrough and personal experience...

To get that scene unlocked I had to plan on the dik/chick meter thingie for like 2 episodes xD

Yeah it's the scene on the bed, if you have amassive Chik or massive dik score she won't kiss you but if you have a normal Chik score she will and that will lead to a lewd scene with her... Lol thanks to the cheat I practically got every scene with all the girls so far, excluding some of the "restaurant" stuff like banging Sarah at the Dik party and the threesome with Quinn and Riona

 

[crunchycake]

If my memory serves me right... I do think Bella did say something like "I forgive you" along with "please come home" in a monolog (forgot from which EP).

If my brain didn't make things up, then James was prolly like cheated at some point leading to a fight between Bella and James. James then moved away, breaking any contacts.

It would also explain why Bella despises cheating and refuses to give into debauchery(easily lol).

Again can someone points out that my brain is creating false memory about it?

that is my own impression, a quarrel that degenerated and that pushed James to go elsewhere in theory momentarily

but just an impression

I know I'm very late with this but I've recently replayed episode 3 and noticed this for the first time
wtf? Is Isabella some kind of physcho? This shit sounds eerie af...id say Bella is my second pick after Jill but is it really worth to it to persue her when the future MC is practically telling us he should've ran away instead.. Kinda tells us that they have no romantic future together

I always think back to the final sentence.."I would have called out for help." I interpret "called out for help" differently than "called for help." To me called out for help means Bella needs help and called for help means MC needs help. It's probably nothing more than an insignificant Swedish to English translation, but I don't think Bella is going to be Leah part 2. I think her past really fucked her up and she needs mental help more than she or Jill is willing to admit. The woman hardly ever smiles or laughs these days (whereas she used to in the past, ex. wedding photo). That's evidence of something terribly wrong.

Even with counseling or whatever to resolve her mental health, it's still hard for me to believe MC and Bella will have a happily ever after marriage. She is a much older person who is tied down to a job and house at B&R. MC is going to want to experience real life after finishing his schooling. I can't see him staying at B&R town to live a repetitive life in suburbia and Bella is not going to want to drop everything and leave (especially when it is shown how quickly she will ditch MC if the Cathy panties are discovered). Teachers can't easily pick up and leave and find a perfect job in any old town and librarians don't make shit. The main reason Bella lives in luxury is because she inherited the house from her dead parents. Maybe DPC will "subvert expectations" and have Bella turn into the perfect wife willing to follow MC anywhere but I doubt it. I think Bella and Sage are not destined to end up with MC (b/c MC would leave Bella after school and Sage would leave MC after school). I think your best shot of happily ever after is with Jill, Maya, or Josy.

I kind of think that the "something is seriously wrong, like 'axe murderer wrong'" is the reaction we're supposed to have to that library scene. But really, its DPC baiting us, and its just something more mundane. When I look at the narration in that scene again, several episodes later, it reads to me like future MC saying "I wouldn't have pushed so hard to bang her, and instead helped her work past her mental struggles first". Implication being, Bella's baggage is gonna blow up at some point and MC's relationship with her makes it worse. But had he just befriended her, helped her with her problems, and THEN wooed her, it would've been a much smoother path. And I kind of wonder if the non-LI path for Bella is like that. No MC fuckery, so he and Jill help Bella much better when her shit hits the fan. Thats my guess at this point.

It reads both ways, though. So mebbe it is some 'axe murderer' shit after all.

I wouldn't worry so much about the distant future, that is not necessarily bright with either of the LIs. the problems with Bella are just in the immediate future.

Let's assume that their relationship becomes serious, that Mc doesn't make any blatant mistakes, can it ever be official? I don't think so, too many obstacles, let's consider the marriage and the triangle with Jill a settled issue, the age difference and the inappropriateness of a relationship between teacher and student remains.
can Bella be okay with a long clandestine relationship? no more casual. she doesn't seem like the type to me, too many fixations on adultery.

their problems are all there, then after college anything can happen, but these 3 years how should they handle it?

Strong points you make there, and i agree, realistically MC and Bella relationship would end after college.hes still a kid living life exploring shit while Bella is an already established working woman who's at least a decade older than the MC.. Im assuming as the game unfolds MC might be able to "fix" her.. Make her happy again, make her feel emotions again.. It already started if you on her path.. It won't probably won't be an easy hill to climb for both MC and Bella going forth with their relationship but I feel like DPC can tell a really nice story with those two and their relationship.. But of course as I said realistically it wouldn't work out, neither of em are on the same level of things and as you said one would have to sacrafice shit for the other in order for things to even go further after MC graduates

LoL why ask this question in response to a post that is nearly 3 years old? Just ask it an one of us dopes will answer it.

Steam will be updated in 4 episode seasons. Each season looks like it will take around 2 years to produce. There are probably going to be around 16 episodes 4 seasons total.

Episode 8 is coming towards the end of production. It should release in the next 4-6 weeks, that’s an educated guess and in truth we don’t know. The Steam version will probably follow soon after, if I had to guess some time before Christmas.


You probably need to be on the CHICK path and or possibly have CHICK rep, I forget. On the Extras tab on the first post are DPCs official walkthroughs.
hat works. Thanks

Solid guess.. It would make more sense than her being a psycho cause she and Jill have been friends for a long time I'm assuming and I'm sure she would've realized something was psychologically wrong with Bella in the years they've got to know each other..lol but as you siad it can go either way

Yeah, the "Called out for help" is too vague. But it definitely didn't mean, right then and there, that he should have started yelling for help, she was just upset. So I take it as "seek help [for Bella]."

On the subject of "Swedish to English translation", I can't think of any serious examples where shit is lost in translation. DPC probably speaks it very well, most Swedes do. They have some strange sayings, but every Swede I've ever met had a great sense of humour.

Just listing some of the potential Bella scenarios with her drama:

• Bella cheated on James and James cheated on Bella (hence her asking and offering forgiveness from/to James in difference scenes),
• Bella killed James and she's actually a psycho (just fucking look at her face, that's all the evidence you need),
• James died (not at her hands) and Bella is not coming to terms with it very well (the only thing given this any semblance of weight is the army imagery, which was when the mc was drunk anyway),
• Bella suffered a miscarriage, or more traumatic, they actually had a kid and he/she died and the couple handled that poorly (the little kid theory stems from the strange little sink in her bathroom),
• The locked room is a nursery for a kid that never made it on the scene,
• The locked room is the child's room who died young,
• The locked room is all of James' stuff packed up,
• The locked room has James' decomposing corpse (the only evidence is those fateful initials: AL!)

But this is how I envisage the Bella/James/Fuckface meeting to go:

You:
Bella cheated on James and James cheated on Bella (hence her asking and offering forgiveness from/to James in difference scenes) :
I:
that would explain James leaving and bella missing her including the bella giving easy access to mc behind her so called friends jill.

You:
James died (not at her hands) and Bella is not coming to terms with it very well (the only thing given this any semblance of weight is the army imagery, which was when the mc was drunk anyway),

I: If he died why bella would ask james to come back.

or I could be like bella and James were in argument all the time and someday james had accident and in that accident her son died so bella kicked james out and now hoping he come back. . .

Miscarriage plot also looks good.
