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

I doubt that, since she also offers them to others. That would be a disaster for Stephen if he actually would be behind that because it would come out far too easily. And what leverage does Quinn even have. The girls would learn very quickly that Sage doesn't know about it and wouldn't condone it and then Quinn would be done for.

Again: It is just a bad plot point that actually does more harm than good to the story and the whole Mona plot could've been done differently (or cut completely) and very little to nothing would've been lost while it would've enhanced the believability of the story to begin with.

Take Quinn for example: With this plot point, she is just not redeemable anymore. She coerced young women to have sex for money and then taking the money from them. There is just no ambiguity about that. It is just evil and bad. Without that plot point, she would've been a bit of an asshole and would deal light drugs. While that isn't good, it would make her a lot more ambiguous as a character who can still return and do good, without having a permanent mark on her.

And Sage also looks bad in this. Her "daughters" get pimped out under her nose from someone she - for no apparent reason - trusts and thinks is a perfectly fine successor to herself, even though Quinn belies that assessment at every turn and openly so.

Quinn was never made to be redeemable dude. She was always made to as obscure, shady and nasty as possible. She was made to be polirizing to the extreme, you would like her and look through her bullshit or you would hate her for what she does to both herself and others.
The extreme of this is the latest chapter heart to heart MC had with Quinn in her path and how she described her relationship with Riona.

This is why she is the only main character that can die in the plot. DPC created her for such and every little piece of writing he did on her cohaborated to this, he even made her path be difficult to reach since he made the two first LIs be a road block to her path. And if you are not on Quinn's path, she will die. That's my take.

If you do that, you will almost certainly lose Cindy but gain Rio and Bianca...

Well if I gotta choose, you can guess who I'm choosing...

 

[Yellowie The Goldie]

I have not a single save in which they worked out for me. I clean the damn thing, I feed them and all they do is getting sick or dying until I give up.

I have NEVER failed a single fish minigame in ALL FOUR playthroughs of mine, it's way too easy to tell you the truth.

 

[Riaman]

Anything but finding a job

Well in failed Loan paper heist case they finally agreed to the Chad grindset of faking it till making it. (Hiding their relationship), lets be real Economics isn't the strongest forte of Maya, or else she would know there is nothing as a free lunch.

 

[saynotoNTR]

Not really. Tommy probably gained respect from MC thanks to backing him up during the Nick situation among other things. MC will be happy to help Tommy even if he doesn't really care about Quinn.

I'm sure Quinn would rather die than receive help from CHICK MC, but OK.

 

[Chillout1984]

Well if I gotta choose, you can guess who I'm choosing...

Looking at your profile, the same choice I will easily make, no question about it.

 

[Bazsa4]

Quinn was never made to be redeemable

I refuse to accept that.

[Puggy Aiden]

Is it possible to stay a fuck buddy for sage? My guy falls for her without giving me any options.

If you played that path, you should realize that that is exactly the story that DPC is trying to tell here and that story would be working much better without the prostitution.

The whole Riona bit would've worked just as is without the prostitution with Quinn just exploiting here as a sub dealer.

Maybe, I need to buy all the stupid upgrades for it to work? But they are so expansive to begin with...

 

[TomUK]

Dammit. second time I've uploaded the wrong file today.
And I haven't had at all.

Finally got around to playing this save, but unfortunately it's not going to turn out well with Sage as the mc has fucked Jade in that save.

 

[Kodek]

I refuse to accept that.

It's the truth. Unless you actively want to pursue her, Quinn is lost in the darkness she ventured into out of her own volition.

 

[soprano31]

I refuse to accept that.

 

[Bazsa4]

Unless you actively want to pursue her

I'm alright on 5 PTs then

BTW I see the point you're making, I'm only saying that we can save her. I hope.

 

[saynotoNTR]

And if you are not on Quinn's path, she will die. That's my take.

I agree and I can already see at the time of her death she remembering Rox saying that she underestimated the White Knight (CHICK MC) in the chess game and that mistake was the end of her. DPC loves this inspirational message shit!

 

[Riaman]

One of the saddest feelings playing BaD

The prostitution was to add free sex in the begginning and to, as I said, make Quinn character even worse and confusing and polirizing in the eyes of the player. And it worked as intended since, for you, this made her irredeemeable.

She pursues this path blindly even if she knows it's wrong and stupid. Out of pride and out of need to have a connection with her father.

Pay attention not to overfeed them -- only put in as much food as you have fish in the tank, so the food amount indicator is green. Coupled with the $10 item that boosts birth rate, that's basically all i needed for the fish to keep breeding like rabbits.

There were sex scenes already without it. And it not having it would've made her character actually polarizing.

The way you write it, just makes it worse. A character doing something he or she supposedly knows is wrong and stupid just because the story needs to character to behave like this anyway, is just bad writing, period.
