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

[Better Cock Spock]

I hadn't been in this thread since the EP11 release, how was it received, how were the reviews? For me it was a total delusion, thinking it took DPC so many months and with how many renderings where made, with high expectations and hyped plot twists.

The image quality was the lower we've seen in BaD, some characters were plain ugly most of the time (WTF happened to Mel's face?). Posing was the worst, clothes were just floating all around, deformed bodies. Chest area in the girls was an abomination in most of the renderings.
Body proportions changing randomly. Zoey grew massively both tits and ass in a few days, how is that?

Sex scenes with the LIs and others were crap: no dialogues, just the same sequence of positions, then cum. There were so few scenes, at least I expected them to be well made, well studied in all aspects. Nah, just the same DPC's approach "here is the mandatory scene that I have to insert, let's not waste time so I can better focus on minigames".
Threesomes were embarrassing. Camila+Sage, no kissing, no eroticism, that felt so mechanic, not inspired at all. Maya+Josy were lesbian more than bisexual, were it shows? There was no chemistry at all between them, so fake. It felt like a forced acting in a bad American porn.

Minigames became so annoying, after the fourth replay I had to code a mod to skip them.

The plot writing went full retard: MC cannot fuck both Sarah and Mel because he cannot recover after, what, 15-20 minutes? Since when? What happened to all previous scenes where he fucked EVERYTHING ANYTIME without any recovery issue?
Becky's behaviour in the sex scene is too absurd. I understand DPC wanted players to dislike her but that scene is full retard, crap writing.
Maya's drama: gone full retard, again.

Game mechanics: a few tc (cheating) points (4? I don't remember) due to choices that MC's girlfriend could never know about or have no real betrayal/cheating aspect, lock out the "true love" dialogues by the girlfriend. Oh shit that's so lame!

This is a VN that raised, and will continue to raise in the next years, millions of Euro. I sincerely expected something more.

Damn, sounds like you hate the game. Why bother playing anymore?

Chad was being played. Nick is being a cunt. there is difference
And as i pointed out. Chad made a mistake and paid consequences. Furthermore ONLY reason he hears MC out and meet is because he wasnted to confirm his doubts about MC knowing his secret.

And Chad had valid reasons for coming at MC even if it is wrong. Not saying that there are not playthroughs in which Nick has reasons to come at MC, but the fact he does even when MC tries his best to always do the right thing by Nick just proves that this two situations are not comparable

You're missing my point, but alright. I don't care enough for Nick either way to continue on.

Bro wtf? after Ep 11 how can you not love Lilly?

whats so surprising? i love lilly but and i think she is well written character but from subjective point, if someone did to me what she did to MC on MULTIPLE ocasions, i would've just told her to fuck off and never speak to her again.
i am talking about the whole borderline forceful hookup and clucker posts about "being together" only to flip flop when she finally gets him where she wants him and change the rules.
And then after ep11 when you get to learn everything there is to know and keep pushing for romance instead of rolling it seems like there is something there, maybe even hope to forgive said curve ball that i really hate personally... and then she just walks away. Dont take me wrong, she is still S tier character and i am like 90% confident that Chick players are getting vindication and reward in form of happy romantic ending with Lilly, but im still frustrated with certain things so its logical for me that there are people who dislike her

 

[DIKHammer]

Don't like girls like her They want all the benefits without any of the strings. One day you come home and she's getting double banged by Neil and Derrick. Don't say I didn't warn you

After she opens up to MC in Ep 11 and she gets super jealous, there will be no more rollin, it will be a relationship in Ep 12. Girl caught feelings

Her look who I'm wearing shit in 10 was so bad

 

[Craysser]

You're missing my point, but alright.

your point is "chad changed his mind, why cant nick? why can chad have change of heart but expecting the same from nick is unacceptable. Cayseron is being unreasonable?" am i wrong?
reason i dont agree with this premise is same reason i dont like josy. Chad is victim in his situation, Nick is playing a victim. Every DIK was ready to hear him out and work it out, he escalated situation and burned every bridge possible before ragequitting like a bitch without even giving anyone chance to speak up.
Chad lost his place in his fraternity because he was manipulated by someone else. Nick played himself.
Nick cant be treated as a victim the same way as Chad because Nick is NOT a victim. If anything, he pretends to be a victim to hide the fact he is culprit (of whatever the plot we get revealed he is involved with).

Nick cant be treated as a victim the same way as Chad because Nick is NOT a victim.

I don't know man. Revealing everyone's secrets was very bad but I felt like he did that because he was backed into a corner and he just lost it. I'm still expecting to find out that it wasn't him that was responsible for the bad stuff and that he was jumped on before the DIKs have all the needed info. So, the part of him getting jumped on did make me feel like he was a victim. Spilling everyone's beans.... pretty much a dick move.

Well I think you have to try to look at it from Nick's POV.

His closest friend was Vinny, who was kicked out. He's been in love with another DIK's woman for a while now. He then watches his fellow brother continue to treat her like shit.

He finally gets to get with his dream girl, only she doesn't do it because she has feelings for him, but because she knew it would piss Tommy off.

While feeling guilty about sleeping with her, he then gets attacked from basically all his fellow DIKs, so goes scorched earth.

Even with all that you make choices later on not blaming Nick, which leads me to believe DPC is setting up for a reveal where Nick was largely innocent of things, except for sleeping with Heather, and being a cunt to his mates at the meeting.

this is the most shocking part of the post for me.
If this was another american ranting i would just chuckle as its regular monday for this site. But they said EURO not DOLAR. what is happening :O

difference between being a victim and playing a victim is that victims dont have a choice. If you think Nick had no choice but to spill everyones beans then fair enough, he is victim. But if you think that was unneccesary then he is playing a victim.

And if he is innocent then all he need to do is say so, not have cringy oneliners that sloppily change based on MCs choices that all somehow turn around to make Nick throw MC under the bus for EXISTING.
SOMEHOW its MC fault that HEATHER who Nick simp for so pathetically wants to suck his D. Even if MC refuses the blowjob Nick still somehow tries to flip it as if MC was doing something bad. And he would throw shade so badly even JB stands up for MC and was like "come on nick, that was pathetic even for you. bullshit you talk about does not even happen in that chronological order".

He had no choice about being jumped on, is the point. So, victim.

Translation : He's angry because Riona is alive and his horrible jokes don't work anymore

 

[Gunizz]

Damn, sounds like you hate the game. Why bother playing anymore?

Well, I played for Riona's funeral! And then it was post-poned to a future DLC
Jokes apart, I feel that he's not at the same level as when he started, maybe he's tired, I don't know, but the writing felt less inspired and the image quality dropped below his usual standards (that were almost fine, not among the best nor among the worst). Will EP12 continue to follow this trend?

this is the most shocking part of the post for me.
If this was another american ranting i would just chuckle as its regular monday for this site. But they said EURO not DOLAR. what is happening :O

I don't understand what you mean. If a product gets so much funding, I expect it to deliver accordingly. It's quite a simple concept.

So i should feel sorry for nick cause he is not only dickriding a criminal, but also jealous of tommy and wants to fuck his girl. Then when he finally fuck tommy's girl and gets called out on it (rightfully so) he decides to burn all the bridges, good or bad, just to feel better about his pathetic choices? no thank you, he can die in ditch, id rather invite Chad to be new DIK member than have any interaction with Nick that does not involve my fists

He didn't burn his bridges because of Tommy and Heather. He did it because of all that laptop shit.

 

[Gunizz]

Riona is alive because her funeral content was not perfect, so DPC decided to cut it and postpone it to a future DLC with new funeral planning mini-games, necro-orgy and other things I cannot spoil. Remember that I'm part of the Beta testing staff I know things and I am among the five Chosen People that is allowed to criticise DPC.

no i agree with the sentiment behind that sentence. what i was shocked is the fact you said EURO and not DOLAR which tells me you are european and not american. that is the part that shocked me. I am used to such comments from americans, i still get shell shocked sometimes when i see someone normal make such comment

 

[Craysser]

He didn't burn his bridges because of Tommy and Heather. He did it because of all that laptops shit.

not just laptop shit. the fact his room was only one that wasnt trashed was also the factor.
And you will see in next episode, it will be revealed that Vinny is behind the cathy cluck and Nick was trying to cover for him, the same way Nick was the one who let Vinny inside the house during halloween. i am fairly confident in this two facts and ready to take an L when next episode comes up in case i am wrong.

They never worked

 

[El_Magnifico]

He didn't burn his bridges because of Tommy and Heather. He did it because of all that laptop shit.

Where he was initially lying and tried to deflect all attention on the MC. He didn't even explain what he was doing with the laptop. Zero excuses.
