20 TIMES? bro you played a porn game 20 times??? i think it is time to go outside and get a life bro how the fuck do you play a porn game twenty times. thats crazy

Fr bro i dont get it either.
I always just do 1 playthrough and be done with it unless i somehow fuck up my save then i gotta go all over again, which i did 3 times.
I get it theres more routes but 20+ playthroughts is a bit extreme lol
Yikes

i think it is time to go outside and get a life bro

I have gone outside after my first playthrough, but I dropped my life down a sewer drain.

So here I am.
Lifeless, replaying every path and waiting for more updates.
Sue me!

Just like rewatching a good movie, there’s nothing wrong with playing a game over and over, particularly if there’s heaps of different paths!

For this thread, I'm a lightweight.

Part timer indeed!

Off the top of my head you'd want the following saves for maximum content:

Current main routes:

DIK Others - manwhore route
DIK Sage - without fucking Jade
DIK Sage - after fucking Jade
CHICK Throuple
Neutral/DIK Throuple
CHICK Jill
CHICK Bella - without pursuing Jill
CHICK Bella - with perusing Jill

Current minor routes:

DIK Others - with DIK Zoey
DIK Others - with CHICK Zoey
CHICK Others - with DIK Zoey
CHICK Others - with CHICK Zoey
(Zoey's affinity reaction with Fuckface's affinity is currently unknown so the mix required for a Zoey branch is unknown)
DIK Others - Quinn focused in ep 9
DIK Others - Nicole/Lily focused in ep 9
DIK Others - Sarah/Mel ending in ep 9
DIK Others - bed with vixens ending in ep 9

Potential routes you'd want to be ready for:

Any Affinity (I went DIK) Others - telling Derek still interested in Josy, telling Josy in ep 9 that you think about her all the time, in case of M/J break up and solo Josy route available
CHICK Others - telling Derek still interested in Maya, in case M/J break up and Maya solo route is available.
Neutral Jill - in case not being CHICK affinity produces different content in the future
Neutral/DIK Bella with and without pursuing Jill - again in case of different content than CHICK affinity
Any Affinity (again mine is DIK) - Rio focused


And that's just off the top of my head without looking at the saves I've got, I'm sure other people can mention other routes that you'd want to have too.

That pretty much sums up my saves.
Or pretty damn close to it.
Glad to see I'm not the only lunatic here.

For people asking for the game to be turned out faster, is there a single game on this site that has a great turn around between episodes and is actually a decent game? All the good games take months and months, and they’re not even that good really. And the games that I see showing up on the updates page regularly have appalling ratings. BaDIK takes longer than most games here, but it’s also better than most games here.

True, Yes, but let's be fair and realistic for a bit. Not everyone have the same equipment and doing it as a full time job like he does.
and the length of the episode doesn't really require 5000 render or more in every episode, not to mention 1000 render at least are for these Free Roaming, which were much more balanced in earlier. Altough I will wait for the next episode before I consider episode 9 as new standrad, I dont think every episode will be a giant Free Roaming, hopefully that was just a one time thing.

But it is also True that Based on his latest Report, He has 3913 Render and 213 animation which is the length of Episode 7. If we would get an episode 7 lenght in every updated, in 4-5 mounth, none will complain .
but yet again 1000 of those render are just for the free Roaming.
but technically we could have a fresh new episode right now, with the same length as episode 7 was

I did forget to mention that each of my MG saves are split into two, with and without the restaurant, clean runs in case they react badly to Fuckface using the restaurant when it all becomes public but saves with the restaurant because I want to see the fallout if they do get pissed about it.

That's something I haven't completed yet.
I've done some, but not with J&M & Jill yet.

Looks like I have something to do for this week

Being a Dik is not the Jason Bourne series. no reason to replay the game 20 times

after reading this comment and the comment you posted before i really feel bad for you. the fact that you dont have anything to do this week other than play a porn game is depressing. i hope your life turns out better than this bro

It's not The Truman show either. There is more than 1 story to play.
Well ok, 1 story but with multiple flavors.

Stopping yourself after just 1 playthrough is like eating a pizza and leaving the dough.
Unless you don't like pizza of course. Then oh well.

Being retired helps.

Yes, I did say "retired" and not "retarded". Although the latter can be debated.

Good lord, if I see a commercial for that show and already I want to gouge my eyes out with a plastic spork.

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

Definitely think the throuple needs it. When the restaurant becomes public they'll probably put 2 and 2 together as to why their pledge list was so sexual, and if they find out that you knew about the restaurant at the time they were completing the list with your help I don't think they'll react well.

I dunno, that could be interesting.

you dont like dr house ??????? wtf how

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

That type of show is about as interesting to me as a used tampon.
I'd rather watch reruns of "Father Ted" or "The Black Adder" or hell even "Bay Watch" would be more interesting to me.

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

I think it will be. Only MG I'm not sure will have much of a reaction is Jill. She'll probably just ask whether you used it after becoming her boyfriend, you answer no and she'll be totally fine about it. Bella will be pissed off that you didn't tell her about it so she could put a stop to it. Sage will have the most explosive reaction to it.

True, but concerning Bella though, I'm not sure she'd want to do anything about it. Specially after Ep9 where Nick spots her when leaving your room by the window.

I think Bella is the LI that has the most to lose, no matter which direction the story takes. I don't believe Derek would rat her out for fraternizing with a student. But others in the frat? not so sure they'd be so loyal to keep quiet should Bella have the hammer drop on anyone for whatever reason.

Although I am curious how Derek will react to her finding all his cheating techniques in class. Will he still keep her & MC's secret? Or will he try to blackmail the MC or her once he finds out they're dating?

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

Depends on what the handbook says. I'm sure they'll make some excuse to Nick and have him believe it was a platonic sleepover like the previous one (though whether the DIKs believed that or not is another question). If the handbook says teacher/student relationships are forbidden I don't think they'll tell anyone, even Derek, that they're in a relationship. If the handbook says it's ok then there's no blackmail to be had.

I have a nagging feeling that the handbook will most likely say something along the lines of "explicitly forbidden" to prevent "favoritism" and other complications. So I do believe the blackmailing will be inevitable. Nowhere is it illegal for a teacher to date an adult student. But every institution forbids it because the teacher could find themselves in a compromising position where a student could "curb" some teacher's educational integrity. Which would ultimately reflect negatively on the institution itself should a scandal erupt.

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

I have a feeling DPC will use porn game logic and go the other way and make it a "grey area" rather than actually forbidden.

You could be right.
But looking at DPC's track record (OK so there's only 1 other title under his belt), he does tend to 'tickle' the realistic side of things. And judging from his other title, drama seems to be at the forefront of his creations, so personally I'm doubting the 'grey area' angle.

I think for the second half of his game he'll be coming at us 'head-on' with the drama, and that's not in the grey area.
*shrugs*

 

[funkymonkeyjedi]

I suppose it depends on the wording in the handbook too. Technically Bella is only Cathy's temporary replacement not permanent (unless that changes), and she is probably still employed primarily as a full time librarian, part time teacher (in the one optional end of curriculum course). DPC could use that as the get-out but then produce drama as the other staff (especially the rejected Burkes (Jade by Fuckface, Stephen by Bella) question whether that interpretation of the handbook is correct.

Plausible.
You could be onto something.
As you pointed out earlier, this is fiction afterall.
So who knows how it'll all pan-out, reality is but a guideline and not a determining factor.
