My personal list of DIK bros would be:Yeah, JB is pretty cool. A bit weird sometimes, but so is Derek. I'd probably rank him pretty highly among the DIKS. If I had to list them, it'd probably be something like...
1. Jacob
2. Derek
3. Rusty
4. John Boy
5. Jamie
6. Leon
7. Nick
8. Tommy
Cuckold1. John Boy
Jerk2. Derek

No, just some bicycles…I don't remember Tommy having sex with a sofa
Didn't Derek warn Tremolo to not sit on the couch in the home theatre. May be D-boy is the JD.I don't remember Tommy having sex with a sofa
I think the difference is that it's "bigger" but there's less unique stuff to do this time. Episode 11 had both an entire vacation to build that is completely missable on half the LI paths for instance.It's a bigger episode than ep 11 so it would be a miracle if it managed with the same amount of development.

It's not so much about whether he has the right to control their relationships, and more a bro code thing. Speaking generally, dating a friend's ex can get pretty awkward - especially if they had a tumultuous relationship the way Tremolo and Zoey did. I think asking was the right call, because it's very likely given the circumstances of their breakup that he wouldn't really be comfortable with her hanging around all the time and being with one of his friends - regardless of whether he's already dating someone else or not.To be honest, Jacob didn't even have to ask. Jacob and Zoey are free people. The MC has no right to forbid them from doing anything.
The MC himself invited Zoey to the party. He invites her even though he is in a relationship. What did he expect? Zoey is an attractive girl. It would be foolish to expect none of the guys to pay attention to her.
I don't think they would've ended up banging even if Jacob had outright told her the MC still has feelings for her. Remember that she didn't really understand her own feelings at the time, and freaked out and ran into the woods when Tremolo told her she was his first love; this is foreshadowed in the episode's introduction, so it wouldn't really make sense if one of the possible outcomes was the two of them getting back together right then and there.What annoys me about this situation is something else. I don't like that I don't have the option to say: "I don't want you to date her because I want to date her myself." Given that Jacob later reveals the conversation to Zoey, this would have resulted in the MC and Zoey having sex in a tent that same night, as it should be.
Yeah, dude. Was doing a fresh playthrough hoping to reach ep 11 for few paths by Xmas. Wintter episodes playthrough is better when it is cold and not scorching summer.Wow you are back
Doesn't jacob say something like "I know we're flirting but MC told me to not get in a relationship with you", before Zoey inevitably turns him down, or am I misremembering something.But I think that would've been a much more narratively sensible order of events than the exchange going:
"Hey man, can I ask your ex out?"
"I'd prefer you didn't."
"Oh, okay, that's cool."
Ten minutes later...
"Hey baby, wanna fuck?"
Damn right it isYeah, dude. Was doing a fresh playthrough hoping to reach ep 11 for few paths by Xmas. Wintter episodes playthrough is better when it is cold and not scorching summer.
If he does I don't remember it. But it's also been ages since I played that scene and actually asked him not to. Zoey is hot but I just don't feel any connection to her so I usually don't do her path. I've got one run with her for completionist's sake but that's it.Doesn't jacob say something like "I know we're flirting but MC told me to not get in a relationship with you", before Zoey inevitably turns him down, or am I misremembering something.
I usually tell him to go for it in my mg runs and to not go for it in my others runs, he only tries to kiss Zoey after you give him permission, at least in my runs I've never seen him try when you don't permit it.If he does I don't remember it.

I agree that asking for permission, getting rejected, and still trying is shitty behavior. But I don't understand why Jacob should even ask. Imagine if there was a girl in the game that you liked, but she had a past relationship with one of the Dicks. Would you ask for permission? And if you were told no, would you give up? Of course, it would be awkward to date the ex-girlfriend of a friend you've known since childhood. But the MC and Jacob are not that close. They can hardly even be called friends. In fact, they're just two guys who wear the same jackets and live in the same house.It's not so much about whether he has the right to control their relationships, and more a bro code thing.

Even if Zoey only realized her feelings in episode 11, she wouldn't have refused to have sex. If the MC had tried to kiss her during their conversation by the fire, she wouldn't have pushed him away, I'm sure of it. I don't mind the slow development, in fact, I even enjoy it, but what happens between the MC of the "other" branch and Zoey doesn't make sense in the context of the game. Considering how easily the MC got sex at the beginning of the game, I just can't accept the fact that Zoey returned 2 months ago and she still hasn't had sex with the MC. Dick MC and Dick Zoey were supposed to fuck already during Halloween. The only explanation I see here is: DPC did not want to further increase the branching and create an additional branch for Zoey if the MC is on the path of "others".I don't think they would've ended up banging even if Jacob had outright told her the MC still has feelings for her.

It's mainly a common courtesy/social grace thing. Even if we assume they're not friends and just "guys who live in the same house," Jacob dating Zoey would still likely mean her coming to the house to hang out with him, attending parties etc. Which can be very awkward for Tremolo depending on how he feels about her. Jacob isn't required to seek permission before asking her out, it's just the nice thing to do, and makes everyone's lives a bit easier.I agree that asking for permission, getting rejected, and still trying is shitty behavior.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree here because I don't really feel the same way about anything you're saying here but it's also very subjective based on our own readings of the characters, so we'd just end up going in circles. The one thing I will say is that the notion that "she would've fucked him earlier but DPC didn't want to bother adding a route for her" is ridiculous, given that she did get a route. It's not like that was a rewrite based on popularity with fans - not only does DPC not give a shit what most people think, the general reaction to Zoey has been largely negative. Her inclusion in the game has always been part of the plan, since the first time she was brought up. So, no, the idea that she would've fucked him earlier but DPC was just too lazy to add her route doesn't hold water.Even if Zoey only realized her feelings in episode 11, she wouldn't have refused to have sex.
