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

[Rehwyn]

Why exactly do you believe there should be negative consequences here? This isn't Aesop's fable. This is also not a realistic story by a long shot (re: the discussion about how dumb it is for all the MGs to potentially keep together, never mind all the other stupid bits and pieces) so why hooking up with older woman is supposed to be a rare exception?

To be fair, they didn't say there "should" be consequences, just that they expect there will be. I think it's been clear for a very long time that DPC likes consequences, so they really shouldn't be unexpected.

Regarding Sage's last name: speaking as someone who spent 8 years in college (4 years more due to the pandemic), I never knew the last name of 90% of my classmates. I had no idea whether or not there were teachers who were married and taught in the same course; or even if they were married to other employees who worked at the same college. I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of college colleagues whose last name I knew, and even then only when I had to hand in a written assignment. After that, I completely forgot their last name. Do you know why? It never made the slightest difference to my education to know that. With the exception of a few teachers (my course had at least 25 teachers), I never knew their last names or their personal lives. So, from my experience, it's not at all impossible for MC to spend so much time without connecting A with B, especially when one of the parties uses a different last name. Unlikely, perhaps; impossible, no.

P.S: I want more of Tiffani, Tara and Bianca!!!!

Tiffani a freak.
One of my fav scenes in this last episode.
She just needs to trim that bush.

All good, my reply to you actually inspired another user to reply to me and he provided some examples of very good boards for all parties without Pink Weib. I think he straight up got the best score possible (legally) for the Halloween Party using the DIK Party perk, neither Pink Weib nor Multiplier Madness. So at the end of the day your point was proven right

If you wanna see some of the other parties, check out his other posts!

Nice thanks for sharing, will check them out later. Yeah those parties did look pretty good (I also discovered I rolled the worst halloween board).
When are the boards rolled? I assume it's start of episode? Rehwyn ?

Was the father of any of your classmates in question the principal of said college? And it never came up?

(i mean in the context where those classmates were someone you'd meet and/or talk about with others. Not merely people you shared the classroom with and never interacted with in any form)

Yeah, the board is randomly chosen at the very start of each Episode (even before the story recap).

Same with your starting inventory and starting DIK happiness at the very start of Episode 9.

Hooking up with an older woman isn't the problem, hooking up with a teacher and/or married woman is. No it isn't a realistic story, but it also isn't a story that is only about sex and nothing else, that has been made clear since the beginning.
I always go into an AVN that goes deeper than "from fuck to fuck" expecting any choices knowingly or unknowingly might bite me in the ass later, because I've already seen that with a lot of other AVN's.

Nah...I like her bush. In fact, I'd like some more girls on BADIK had one!!! But, that's just question of taste

 

[ElectronicRoberts]

ElectronicRoberts recently posted a 200 page fan guide to BaDIK that he made himself. Name me one game that inspires people to do this. Look at it this way.

Just to give credit where it's due, I certainly couldn't have created the guide on my own. The guide was made by Casiope, and he deserves all the credit. I’ve simply updated it for the latest installment since, unfortunately, he became inactive.

Have you felt a few asses? That's it - now you can't tell Josy you love her.
What the hell is this?

Who in their right mind gropes other girls' asses when they already love someone special, bro?

Hooking up with an older woman isn't the problem, hooking up with a teacher and/or married woman is.

Given it is a choice between consenting adults it is, at worst, morally questionable. But a lot of people engage in these things without any actual negative consequences. So why should this have guaranteed negative consequences in every single case where you take part in it?

No it isn't a realistic story, but it also isn't a story that is only about sex and nothing else, that has been made clear since almost the beginning.

Being more about just sex doesn't mean that "something else" must be punishments for the player for engaging in "wrong" kind of sex. The something else could just as well be getting away with engaging in that "wrong" sex.

That's not even mentioning that "consequences for having sex" is still a story about sex, than anything else. So if the story is supposed to be about more than just sex, this is a pretty poor way to go about it.

The paradigm shift has come for everyone except Quinn. She's still the same old Quinn. She hasn't learned anything from Riona's situation. She won't ask for help, that's it.

I fear she's just painted a bigger target on Riona's back by calling the police - who clearly won't be able to arrest Buddy, Vinny and Mick for some reason.

I'd say "paradigm shift" does apply to Quinn too because she's had to upend the life she was leading and go against her Dad, in some sense, by ratting out Buddy. It's a huge shift for her character and story because now, with them gone (at least for now, probably), she won't be slinging drugs anymore and it also seems as though the restaurant may be over as well or at least paused, possibly by Burke. The whole situation seems it has changed her because she realises how much she's wronged Rio, her only true friend, and she wants to do right by her, to try and make it right, so she does the one thing that seems most obvious and that's get the police involved. So in a way, this was her asking for help because that's literally what calling the police is.

This could come back on Rio, maybe, if they (Buddy, Mick, Vinny) think it could have been her or her Mom who phoned the police, but it could also put a target on Lily's back too since Vinny just threatened her. But I suspect Quinn made sure all the guys were inside before calling the police and I think that at least Buddy and Mick were arrested, Vinny may escape and so he may be the one coming for retribution and right now I'd put money on him going more for Lily than Rio.

I once played a famous game. There was a choice that led to unexpected consequences and often you wanted to do the best, but your actions would led to terrible consequences. How could I know that the desire to save children from witches by releasing the spirit of the forest would lead to the nearest village being exterminated by this spirit, and Baron Philip Stenger would hang himself from grief, because the witches would turn his wife Anna into a monster. Or that the decision to save the sorcerers from Novigrad would lead to another witch hunt, only this time against other minorities.
Was I angry, upset about this? No. Such is life. An action that seems right and innocent to you can lead to sad consequences. DPC games are like that. A seemingly ordinary action can backfire on you. And this distinguishes BaDIK and AL from thousands of other wanking games and one of the reasons why the game stands out from the rest.

How about romancing 2 witches at the same time?
Btw every time I see your nickname I keep wondering- why is it "from"? Was "of" taken or any other reason? From feels like a mistranslation.

 

[I don't really know]

Good god! GL trying to find a specific post using keywords in this thread, even with the search box it's a nightmare.

This is no longer a game-thread but a chat-group that happens to revolve around the game.

Likely by the end of the day this shit will have 17,000 pages of posts... 17,000!!!!

I'ma pass on this game as I can't find shit in thread without spending half a day looking for buried treasure.

I have a shifty pair-o-dimes that says you are wrong about this. Be prepared for Quinn’s ascension, praise be to her glory! Blessed and protected will be her acolyte Riona! Our Quinn, Mother and guardian of all MC’s blessed children! Glorious and packed be the fruit-of-our-looms. Praise be to our Devine Quinn! Right, Karamba ?

Thanks for the clarification. You did a lot for the thread and I thought it was your work entirely.

Sage hiding after getting naked in the beer pong game, meanwhile, not long ago:

She sure didn't have a problem showing them off at Bella's

I disagree with your first point. Imo Quinn not using tremolo's naive generosity and whiteknightery IS the paradigm shift.

Rex would have told her to use tremolo as her pawn and to sacrifice him if necessary which she did not. Quinn keeping the mc out of her "game" is the shift in her behavior, she used rio like a pawn and look where she ended up.

This is serious bullshit with guns and torture involved and the mc is just some small village boy at this point even when he can fight. He would be in grave danger of being hurt or killed and even if everything magically would work out flawlessly with his help, she would have involved him in serious illegal shit which could ruin his life.

Quinn not asking tremolo for help despite him wanting to help is her way of protecting him imo.

I agree that she kinda painted a big red cross on herself, rio and rio's mom ... but maybe (hopefully) her plan is more clever than simply calling the cops and there is more to it.

 

[Chillout1984]

I believe she does say she has no problem with topless, just showing her pussy.

Then again that doesn't explain why she also hides her breasts after beer pong (although not that well).
