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

Yeah, Rox, that's your girl. Honestly, for once. Rox is a shitty chess teacher, no wonder Quinn can't get anything done in life.

The pawn is not a good choice. Knight to G6 would be the appropriate response. Defend defensively, with an extended game setup and the possibility to put further pressure on the white queen. Black could thus quickly collect a few pieces in case of a mistake by white.

Btw, what happens if Derek doesnt like you? So far i kinda went full on bro mode bc i really like him, but are there any drawbacks?

Dude, this girl is 20 years old, it's too early to judge what she can get done in life.

for now, absolutely nothing changes (as for RPs to other fraternities) likely to come back into play sooner or later and it will probably be the usual DPC shenanigans

Quinn could be pretty successful in life if she lives

 

[KekWGgWP]

If you turn minigames off but have a good relationship with the DIKs then Rusty doesn't have to sell the car.

Oh so it was about relationships, i see.

Thanks for the clearing

While I agree with the general idea of what you're saying here, your profile picture heavily suggests that your opinion has been compromised lol

I think her dying would be a pretty shitty direction to take the story. It clashes with the overall tone of the game, and while she can be a massive piece of shit at times, she's not so bad that it wouldn't be a tragic outcome.

Especially since it's made clear she was groomed to be this way, by a dad that she clearly loved. Like, the whole "don't trust anyone, and keep anyone you have to trust, keep them at arms length" is a classic isolation tactic to make sure she's easier to control, and it's fucked her up.

I don't really see a way of selling her death as anything more than a surprise downer ending. The only thing I've seen pull it off is season 1&2 of Skins, and that generally has a much less light hearted tone than Being a DIK, and failed at it two out of three times, because it causes a massive tonal shift each time.

i dont disagree necessarily, but even with the more serious tone i dont think anyone actually predicted how Acting Lessons would end. i think its fair to say that with DPC, you never really know

 

[KАRАMBA]

It's too early? She hasn't learned anything from learning chess to the present. If I extrapolate that, I get down to six feet under.

Oh, of course. Maya and Josy apparently learned a lot. And they managed to achieve a lot at their young age. This cannot be denied. Especially impressive is the extraordinary intelligence of Maya, who thought that someone would pay for her education, simply so, because she is a very good person. It's brilliant idea.

I've not played Acting Lessons myself. Did it end well? I've only heard complaints about it through this thread.

I'm gonna need you to explain your logic in detail, cause that seems like a leap to me.

I joke about if Quinn will live but I do agree with you anyone dying in the game would be a hard turn from what the game has been so far. While I do believe something bad is going to happen I don't think anyone will die. I can see Quinn being the cause of something happening or being involved somehow but she isn't the villain here not even sure if Vinny is he just a joke to me.

The difference between Maya and Quinn will be for Maya to reach her goal.

Actually, Quinn also reaches her goal. Jail.

 

[Arctic Crusader]

The fact is this. Jill probably never met Lynette.

Where was it ever said that she did?

I'm not so sure on Vinny. The fact that he makes Tommy and Quinn nervous suggests he's not all bark, and that he's probably our Big Bad of season 3, at the very least. I think the power and influence of Burke put him closer to the role of "Main Antagonist" though. I wouldn't be too surprised if he had a hand in the local criminal element even.

It could go either way though.

 

[Dark Silence]

And I broke the game again. I think this time it was the fact that I used skip all the way till the co-ed party and it broke after finding the 'water balloons and getting the nerd back. Oh well, at least I saved before getting him back and the save actually worked after rolling back a bit.

Is there a consensus on whose ass is this?

Nora

 

[Arctic Crusader]

Jill is about just 2 years old when the photo was taken in front of the villa, which at that time also belonged to Lynette's parents. After that, Lynette had to leave with her father and was not allowed back.

Therefore, when the Royce's bought the villa, they probably never met Lynette. The only way a connection from Lynette to the Royce could have happened is through Lana or Amelia, because they could be the same approximate age.

Jill was still a baby.

Ooooooooooooorrrrrrrr.... MC's Grandparents know Jill's Grandparents. It's not complicated.

 

[Lethal Flourish]

Yeah, Jill.
