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

[NadaMucho]

Nick isn't the traitor, he got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time BUT he became a traitor when he became a rat fuck

If you're talking about when he shared details he had about the DIKs I hear you. However, he was getting pressed pretty damn hard and it doesn't shock me that a person would throw out whatever they could to get the many-on-one dog pile to back off.

 

[DIKHammer]

Exactly, the rules have a loophole. If a Royce gets to exploit it, so does a Burgmeister. If Rusty wants Zoey to have a place with DIKs, Zoey has a place with the DIKs.

Until we get further details on the rules and the loopholes we can't treat Zoey being an honorary DIK as an impossibility.

again where is she sleeping AND how does she pass the cumpetition assuming 3 or more maggots apply? ex Chen & Mark probably would

Yet he dumped on everyone, like if he just dumped on Tommy because Tommy was coming after him I'd feel not as bad about the situation. Also proving you;re "trustworthy" by then dumping everyone's secret makes no sense

Well Chen would struggle to get it up again lmao

I don't really care for Mark and Chen based on what we've seen. Plus I kinda feel like we're too close to the end for the need of more Dik's

Which brings me to another point, Ep1 to Ep11 covered roughly 4-5 months right? We've got max 5 episodes of this left, I think 3-4, we're gonna need some decent time skips to get to the end of the school year. Presuming one of these is a spring break episode, I also think the plot is already beginning to converge on all the paths

Rusty isn't exactly in the strongest position to do anything big like that. The Cathy Cluck incident put the frat in a horrible spotlight, Rusty's dad is through with helping out (I know it was financially, but why would he get behind letting a girl into the frat? Plus he seemed pretty disappointed in Rusty overall), and then there's the dormies' revenge highlighting their terrible treatment of girls in the past.

I think people just like Zoey enough to look past the improbability of her joining the DIKs, as well as the idea of her being a female MC and poetry it rhymes and whatever. And if she does join, then what happens? She's the only girl ever, just because a Burgmeister happened to allow it while he's president? It's just too much of a hopeful wish—and I don't even want it either, especially when 9 times out of 10 Zoey won't even get back together with MC.

simple, she's a Royce and has $$$$$$$$

I think you mean $$$$$$$$

I think that there will be significant time skips.

Fair point. Unless I go back and reply the scene I can't say who, besides Tommy, was casting the most shade. I'm supposing that Nick felt like everyone was on him but that probably wasn't the case. I gotta go rewatch. I can say though, if it were me, if I had kept someone's confidence and they didn't back me up I might just say "fuck you".

 

[Better Cock Spock]

I think that there will be significant time skips.

That's a real shame, especially when the current time skips feel very inconsistent.

 

[-d2d-]

That's a real shame, especially when the current time skips feel very inconsistent.

Obviously if there did end up being 5 more episodes there'd be less need for significant skips but I think that there will only be 3 more.

Woah, that's like 26 inches of money.

sometimes 3 episodes covers one week, and sometimes 3 weeks occur across 2 renders lmao

3-4 more after the one being made is my guess. And you don't need much time skips - Day to Day can be quickly shown and then we have Chirstmas and New Years for the next eps - winter break - then Valentine and Spring Break then end of school year Sage Graduation and then the ENDING -

Bearing in mind DPC also needs to resolve the overarching stories, have the Lynette diary scenes (ugh), each individual girls content. Rage over dev times is gonna hit new levels

Sleeping is easy enough. If her door needs to have a lock they can install one. Or all the doors actually have locks, but they are only in use when it's convenient for the plot. Passing the DIK initiation is not something the college itself enforces. Like I said: if Rusty wants Zoey there, she gets to be there.

Rusty isn't exactly in the strongest position to do anything big like that. The Cathy Cluck incident put the frat in a horrible spotlight, Rusty's dad is through with helping out (I know it was financially, but why would he get behind letting a girl into the frat?

Again we do not know the details of the rules or the loopholes exploited for Jill. Until we do Zoey staying with the DIKs is not impossible.

We can come up with a whole lot of arguments for why it would be unlikely. We can have serious doubts of her wanting to. We can go on and on about what we personally want to see. But the bottom line is that with the current information we can't call it impossible.

 

[NadaMucho]

have the Lynette diary scenes (ugh)

Ahaha I like those diary scenes

 

[-d2d-]

I am curious, however, about how epilogues are gonna work.

Seems to me like main girls would get a longer epilogue and some of the more significant side girls would get a bespoke ending.

I'm guessing that there will be a "default" ending, maybe linked to Tremolo's grades that shows his future/career with differences based on their chosen path.

Obviously this would only be the very end but even thinking about it sounds like a lot of renders and variations to make based on previous choices.

 

[Roger-a-Dale]

Woah, that's like 26 inches of money.

I don't see what the big deal is. You can only get like a picture frame for that. Props for a fishtank cost more.

Lots of people just hate Nick because he plowed Heather before them.

Its more like frustration due to 0 progress since 9ep, i dont care personally, but 100% it was unnessesary. I more hate 10ep, it felt like a transshipment point.

It has more credibility than something braindead like Cindy being Nora's daughter, but there's still a lot going against Zoey as a DIK than for. And the "loopholes" for Jill are simple: status and money, mostly money I imagine. But yeah let's just move on.

Ahaha I like those diary scenes

How much did you enjoy the Episode 11 diary scene
