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

[Chillout1984]

Meh, whatever. As long as he stays away from the Divine Quinn

True, but imo Gina should be one and done for Tommy (unless he already had sex with her in the past without us knowing).
Unless she somehow happens to be family of MC (fat chance), MC still needs to have sex with her. She's way too hot to not fuck her

Gina's the platonic ideal of damaged goods. The first time we see her she is getting spit roasted by two nerds at the dorm party. The second time we see her she is quitting on the exam. The third time we see her she needs to chase her topless friend and at the panty party she is the topless friend and fucks Tommy. Yuck. She is about three lost brain cells from being Arieth.

I still don't think she is quitting on the exams, she seemed to look too confident for that. I've got a feeling that she is the cheater for which the answers in the toilet are/were meant to be (so she's the Anderson).

Other than that, she seems to be just a more timid version of Tiffany.

I don't agree with that at all. When writing this, I'm the top 29th Patreon creator on the entire platform, all categories – that's the highest I've ever been. And I just reached an all-time high in patron count, too - just 112 patrons shy of 20,000 patrons. I'm not seeing any decline in interest or a loss of faith – I'd say it's the opposite. Even though it's taken 15 months to release one episode, I've felt immense support from my patrons, with very few complaints throughout the development cycle.
I get that it's a long time to wait, but the content you get with each release matches the waiting time. Episode 11 was comparable in size to the entirety of Season 1. In terms of content, it was the biggest release for me and probably in the history of AVN.
The longer development time per episode is the result of the game reaching its end stages, and the story is branching out even more. With every episode, I need to put extra work and consideration into all the branches that I create. And even after I do that, you'll notice that not every character gets the spotlight. That's the beauty and the curse of the branching.
I won't release something I'm not happy with, and I've always been transparent about the development process. The rest of the game will take a long time to develop. Players should expect this; I don't hide that fact.
My workflow is as optimized as it gets by now, but I'm constantly looking for ways to improve the speed of everything I do. Ultimately, there's no getting around the fact that manual work is a bottleneck.

Lol, yeah, it's scary how old we're getting while we're on this journey, but I also think that time flies. As I mentioned in the previous answer, I'm not concerned about people losing interest. Fans come and go all the time. As long as I don't lose interest in making the game, I'm not worried. I think this experience and journey will be remembered and treasured by many players in the future after the game is completed. At least, that's what I hope. I know that I will certainly reminisce about the years of development and the struggles along the way. I'm sure I'll laugh and remember how long it took to create the game, but in the end, it will have been worth it. The game is only good because it's been allowed to take time.

After the game is completed, I will revisit the older seasons and decide what to do. I want to remaster them to bring their quality up to the current standard, but it's a lot of work, and I don't want to do that while the game is being developed. I don't think most players would want me to stop what I'm doing now to revisit an older season, either. The QoL improvements you mention are definitely on my to-do list. For one, I find it weird to go back and play Seasons 1 and 2 and forget that the keyboard doesn't work during English class.

I don't do lazy writing; I think that my writing is overly ambitious, and I am always deliberate about what I write and how I do it.

Looking forward to years and years of waiting for impeccable writing like being able to fuck only Sarah or Mel but then cumming 5 times in one night!

It's almost as he was hinting in a horrific way to both a Mel and Sarah route after the previous hint at the Dorm Party of who you interact with first.

But yeah, DPC is decent in overall storytelling, but pretty bad if he wants you to choose one or the other. Just like the situation with Jill's picnic or Sage's illness and also at Bella's panty party on throuple route, where there is no option to just lay on the ground between Josy and Maya.

Yeah this was really stupid

What gets me is that in Episode 4 if MC was romancing both of them equally up to that point, he could choose to sleep on the ground and the two girls would just push the beds together so all three of them are sleeping together.

-_-

It's almost like he wanted to do the exact opposite this time, evoke that scene while emphasize that it will be inevitable to pick one or the other

And that's why (currently) it's best to just not go to Bella if you're on the throuple route and want to balance the attention between them
Although I won't be surprised if that's going to bite MC in the ass in ep 12.

 

[Irgendwie Irgendwo]

Well, Derek, you better take your own advice. Foreshadowing much?

I think it was clear DPC was going for a split in the throuple when Neil, who is always supportive of MC, pretty much told MC he was being an idiot and was gonna hurt someone by doing this.

MC reaction to Neil laying that out was pretty annoying as well. Seemed more like a DIK reaction even though when I did it I was full Chick.

To be fair, there were two main reasons imo why Neil reacted that way:
1. Tremolo explained it in a terrible way, about the same way as he told the DIKs
2. The girls weren't there with him, so Neil couldn't see for himself if there was any true chemistry between the 3 of them.

 

[Phatman575]

Unless theres a TC points way to, you don't get the choice of staying or going to Bella's on throuple route,

True, MC do be dumb as fuck sometimes.

He'd probably still say something similar I think, especially after hearing about the troubles Maya has had and the fact MC was crushing on Josy before going to college. A lot of complications in that relationship and I don't blame him for being worried.

TC has got nothing to do with it. If you don't say "I love you" on the date with Josy or Maya, or they don't say it back, you can choose between going to Bella or staying at the party.

 

[Phatman575]

Ah, didn't know that. Thank you.

It's almost like Tremolo is a 19 year old kid with less than a year of real social life?

If only his grandfather would've forced Neil for Tremolo to live with him... His life (including social life) would've been completely different.

Fuckface gonna fuckface.

Don't go using logic on us Maccabbee, I'm too exhausted for that...
