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

[FappingWorldwide]

To hell with the waifus. What about the bros in this game?

1. Derek. Obviously.
2. Rusty. What a sweetheart.
3. Tommy. Yes, he's a massive DI(c)K, but he's also extremely dedicated to the frat, and funny as shit. He's fucked up, but deep down he's your bro.
4. Jacob. Close contender for my third place. He's smart and caring, all around great dude.
5. John boy, Jamie and Leon all sorta fade into a common ranking in my book. They haven't had a lot of screen time. The Jam-Jam arc is pretty sweet though, so is John Boy and Elena.
6. Nick. Mainly because he's a prime suspect, but his interactions are also weird. Weird in the sense that they seem like you're interacting with a facade. It feels to me like we haven't really seen his personality in any discernable way.

So if he is ignoring the "Moral Mod Police" (aka known as DPC), he won't be able to play any more Episodes.

I don't support DPCs "no Mod" attitude, in some cases (i always use the Time-Mod in CIV, so i don't sit all the night at one playthrough ) Mods are good for the gameplay (like a Skip-Minigames-Mod for BaD). Cause DPC don't like them, you have to be careful when using them here, so i decided to play without (using the "Alt Tab-ing" like stated). After a few playthroughs i memorized the most decisions and the results so mostly no Alt Tab-ing.

??? He/she can still play future episodes........

Not sure how you're getting this 'Tommy is dedicated to the frat' thing. He was ready to bounce once the mansion got fucked up.

Personally, my rating would be:
1. Jacob - solid all-around no-nonsense bro
2. Rusty - pretty decent guy, but quite naive and indecisive
3. Derek - funny and dedicated to MC, but never serious when required and can be unreliable
4. In terms of having their shit together: John Boy > Leon > Jamie; In terms of trustworthiness: John Boy > Jamie > Leon
5. Tommy - won't betray the DIKs, but you can't rely on him much either
6. Nick - outwardly the nicest guy of the group, but suspicious as fuck. Possibly a red herring, but I don't think DPC is that subtle.

 

[mightybored]

I think Derek's been pretty reliable. Sure, he's kind of an idiot, but he's always gotten stuff done when it was time to do so. I can't think of a time he actively failed when you needed him to succeed; he's not a fuck-up.

Wow, that almost matches my ranking, first and last place for sure. Team Derek

Well after he snaps out of his rage he takes it upon him to get the DIKs another gig at The Pink Rose doing cleaning. He's constantly raging at the Alphas after they've wrecked the mansion. He also threatens to take revenge upon a fellow DIK, unless that person spoke up at the time when they were discussing the consequences of the Cathy Cluck with Rusty.

Remember he apologizes to the MC, and also admits liking him even though he's always talking shit. He breaks up his relationship with Quinn because she ruined the night of the two new DIK brothers celebration. He tries to make up for his mess by taking the MC out to a bar and setting him up with a fake ID.

He pretty much is my favorite of the DIKs for many reasons, Rusty and Jacob are great, JB too, Nick is calm and collected but yeah, suspicious as fuck, while Jamie is kind-hearted and Leon is cool but more filler than anything.

But Tommy ? Talk about personality, a 'great guy with a short fuse', totally, he's rough around the edge and there's probably a part of him that sees the MC as a threat to his place, but he really care in the end, Rusty is the face of the DIKs, Tommy is the heart and soul.

 

[ffive]

For many varied, and entirely valid reasons. Just because person A might like Jill doesn't mean person B has to, no matter how blind some people might be to her flaws.

I have yet to read any of these "varied, entirely valid reason" that doesn't come across like Fuckface-level snowflake whining. That's from position where i don't especially feel anything about Jill, one way or the other.

The goblin thing in particular carries nothing but the "2/10 would not bang" dead meme energy.

 

[OFT]

Well this sucks.

I was working on a post, and I just found out my company discovered my internet line.


I've been using a long-forgotten DSL connection to surf at work. I've been here so long that everyone else who knew about it is gone. I patched a line directly from the router to my office and filled the rest of the ports with dead-end lines buried in the spider web of cables so no one tried to trace them. The bandwidth is slow as fuck, but it works, and it's the only way around the corporate firewall. (Employee of the Month, right?)


The IT head of our division came to me this morning asking if I knew about this mysterious DSL, because someone in accounting finally figured out we were paying a monthly fee for the service over the last 8 years and no one knew why. I'll be sneaking into the data room to disconnect the lines, because it's just a matter of time before they find it.


So, there goes my connection at work, and subsequently, there goes my main connection to all the fun shit that's blocked by the firewall, and all the lewd shit I don't have time and privacy for outside of the office.


Long story short, it looks like I'll be going dark very soon and for quite a while, or at least until I can figure out a replacement connection at the office.


While I'm gone, I need someone occasionally to tell Dalli he's nuts in OFT fashion. Here - use this:





And someone tell Ron he can look now.





Farewell, maggots.





Or rather...

We’ll that does fucking suck.

I was just getting pissed off because my cat was sitting on my lap with a turd attached to its hair and I’ve got shit smeared on my jeans, then I read this and I feel like a petty fuck!

Can’t you just hotspot through your phone or some cool shit like that?

Props to him for taking on the system!!

2. Rusty. What a sweetheart.
3. Tommy. Yes, he's a massive DI(c)K, but he's also extremely dedicated to the frat, and funny as shit. He's fucked up, but deep down he's your bro.
4. Jacob. Close contender for my third place. He's smart and caring, all around great dude.
5. John boy, Jamie and Leon all sorta fade into a common ranking in my book. They haven't had a lot of screen time. The Jam-Jam arc is pretty sweet though, so is John Boy and Elena.
6. Nick. Mainly because he's a prime suspect, but his interactions are also weird. Weird in the sense that they seem like you're interacting with a facade. It feels to me like we haven't really seen his personality in any discernable way.

1. Tommy. Yeah, I was thinking who should be in the first position - and look who it is! Even for me, it's surprising.
2. Rusty. Great guy overall, but his indecisiveness is his biggest flaw. And I believe a leader can't afford to be indecisive.
3. John boy. Fuck if I know why, it's just how I feel
4. Leon. He seems fun and chill, although he's yet to show if there's something special about him, thus only 4th place.
5. Jacob. Good guy, but a bit of a pussy. And honestly, with his attitude of a nice guy, I don't know how he got to the frat.
6. Derek. Sure, it's fun to see him all the stupid shit he usually does, but that can only go so far when building friendship and trust (at least in my case). Also, he's fiercely loyal to Maya and will always put her first, not the DIKs or our Snowflake McFuckface. Of course, I'm not saying he should forget about his sister for the sake of the MC or the DIKs, but I have to take his priorities into account. Long story short - I don't trust the guy. I even have a vague picture of how his loyalty to Maya could directly contradict my MC's interests, but I guess that's another story; I got carried away, haven't I?
7. Jam-Jam. Basically the same problem as with Jacob, but even on a greater scale. Sometimes I wonder what a... soft guy like him is doing in this frat. Oh well, I suspect it's all Leon's influence.
8. Nick. What you said, I've nothing to add.

My condolences. We will miss your memes and theories, but there is still mobile internet, and although using the F95 through the phone is like walking on crutches, it is still real. And of course your office rules are brutal.

 

[Mr. Muscles]

Then, when you love the game, why do you want to use mods? Play it as DPC has it intended to play, for help there are plenty of walkthroughs here in the thread. So you can explore every time something new, the only reason to use a mod is to drop the minigames.

Mods can make the game feel more organic in a sense, if that's how one opts to use it. For example, you don't have to deal with the BS that is the choice of having to either take care of Sage or going out with Jill, as if it's impossible to do both things in a single day. You're also not limited to what I consider a very restricting morality system. Ultimately, one can do whatever he/she likes with the game, it's not anyone's business. No need to gatekeep people, mods exist since the dawn of time for many, many games.

And suddenly the wait for the ninth chapter became terribly longer and unbearable

 

[UserAppleBanana]

Hey so I just finished the 1st part I believe because I can't play the hallowing part (playing 0.8.2 MAC) and now I want to continue.. what should I download 0.8.3 or this 3 Interlude? Thank you in advance.

 

[ffive]

0.8.3 is just a small patch for 0.8.2 version of the game. For the continuation, you'll want the Interlude, though it's not direct continuation, but more of a flashback focused on a character who's making appearance in season 3.

Here at mine i can access at least this forum but most of the "bad sites" are blocked. Cause of this and i'm mostly not in the office, i use my mobile phone to post here.

 

[Ilhares]

Well this sucks.

I was working on a post, and I just found out my company discovered my internet line.

I don't know your specific office/company environment, but this happened at one of the places I was contracting as well. We told them the "truth".

"Yes, we do have a DSL line. It's kept for the occasional main line outages if we have an emergency need, since it's very low bandwidth we don't broadcast it being there. We also use it for testing outside connections to see if the problem exists at the main company firewall or if it's something in the internet routing paths. Think of it as a diagostic service line, it's the first thing we check if anybody says there's an outage."

I mean, it's technically true, we also had a couple machines that connected to the DSL and the company network, for sharing files that for some reason couldn't go through the FTP server after corporate HQ mucked up a few things.
