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

[Yennefer]

That's what I was saying. Sorry if I wasn't clear. It just makes me wonder if they are gonna become a bigger part of the story in BaDIK.

Yeah my bad I realised it

 

[SpikeZg]

No status update post from Pink, what is this madness??
I don't like this...

btw thx Ellordrings for the clean Cammy sig

Guys it has been talked around that Acting Lessons is a sequel to BaDIK and the screenshot below proves it.

Liam and the MC were DIKs at B&R. So it's possible that in the next season or so, Liam and the MC of Acting Lessons are gonna pledge to the DIKs, if the BaDIK story continues passed a year that is. It's awesome seeing these stories connect.

I can't recall all the details on it...
But I think it was something like Delta Iota Kappa is fairly new in the universe of BaDIK.
And Liam and AL's MC were far too old to have been around by that time.
I think there were other inconsistencies.. But my memory has gone to shit
Would be a nice little notch if Liam does appear at one point however. But I find it unlikely.

If I get something hilarious I'll post it

Just keep doing your thing... You know.. Keanu... And Strutting that Yenn Gif.

That's why I said that BaDIK is a prequel. In BaDIK they explain the DIKs were created like 2-3 years before the events of BaDIK. The time frame between AL and BaDIK is whats a mystery. It would be really cool if you could become good friends with Liam and the MC of AL and you could help with their tasks and stuff. They could also help you with some other things. Just gets me more excited for this next season.

Just so I understand you correctly. BaDIK is a Prequel to Acting Lessons?
The issue with that is the Year: I think it's confirmed it's 2017 in BaDIK (there's a calendar somewhere)
You'd have to pick a year that fits the story of Acting Lessons and match it to the time frame after the events of BaDIK. And I don't think you can.. I mean you could force it in but it just wouldn't really make much sense.
It's more likely they are different universes: And that was a notch to him planting the seed for his next game.

Very well could be just planting a seed for the next game and they are in completely different universes. But it's just cool to see the connection and theorize on it. I don't remember the calendar that your talking about but you are probably right. I read a comment I think it was either today or yesterday that said that AL takes place in 2019 or something and BaDIK takes place in 2017. Something along those lines. I don't think it would be too far-fetched if the AL MC and Liam show up in BaDIK but I also think it would take away some of our focus in the story. Maybe a small cameo in the dorms or something? I feel like something might happen to MC and the DIKs depending on your path, so you might not see them pledge to the DIKs anyways. Will be interesting to see for sure.

It's a good theory for sure it's just a hard sell. I played BaDIK first than Acting Lessons like yourself and I came to the same theory as well. I think Acting Lessons being set in 2019 is a bit of hard sell for me now after looking at the discussions since.
The year for AL is the hardest part to the theory and the game feels like it's well before BaDIK in terms of timeline.
I wouldn't be a opposed to a little cameo like a small little notch to AL by seeing Liam show up somewhere.

Not sure how much of the story we are ultimately going to get but it would be cool if we got toward the end of Being a DIK and you did have Liam and The MC become pledges. Just as a little notch to Acting Lessons. But I think both games should be different universes overall. (Also that would mean big Time Skips... Did I ever tell about how much I hate Time Skips.... )

Just finished Episode 2 of Acting Lessons and I gotta say it's pretty good so far. My favorite girl right now is Megan, but I feel that's more because the story is more setup around her so she feels more important to me. Melissa is extremely hot though so I'm gonna do another speedrun where I go for all the other chicks, but in my current run I'm gonna stay loyal to Megan. The story line seems a lot more casual than BaDIK. I really enjoyed BaDIK's college atmosphere and scenarios, and how all the different girls you meet during your stay at college. AL's story is more centered around your relationship with Megan and all the other people you meet through her. Which is fine, but I have a hard time not staying loyal to Megan through all this. I really want to give Melissa the dick but I know it will hurt Megan. Besides Megan is sweet as sugar anyways, and that gets me.

I felt exactly the same way when I played the game it was very hard to avoid melissa

I don't suppose any one here would be able to recommend a decent game for me to try out that maybe I'm not aware of.
Preferably one that doesn't have me perving on my relatives. Or at the least where they at least try to not make it blatantly obvious that your perving on your family.
Yeah yeah I know that's asking alot.
So far I know of AL, BaRS, Depraved Awakening, C.o.B.D, Deluca, and Unleashed.
Those are all that come to mind.
So are there more? Or is my constant joke about there only being 5 games that don't make you screw your mom not actually a joke after all?

It does seem pretty rare on this site that the MC isn't trying to perv on his "landlady" or "roommates." However, some of my current favorites that have no incest are; Rebirth, Love of Magic, Battle for Luvia, Reluctant Archon, and WVM. The last though seems like it may lead to incest in the future. Also, none of those are completed, but a few of them have hours of content already.

I forgot about WVM. I can see how that one has that "unmentioned word" vibe. However thus far Braindrop does a decent job of writing it so it's not clearly obvious so his game is on my list of trying. As far as the others you mentioned go I will give them a look. TY

"Quinn raped me" lmao, are you guys for real? Breaking news, choose the option "No" and it won't happen.

Nice strawman you got there.

Notice the "attempted" part of my statement? Which, frankly, isn't even a legal term. At least in terms of the federal law, the US doesn't have a legal definition of "rape" as such, state laws vary on that.

What Quinn does do is attempt to use social pressure to force sexual contact whether MC likes it or not. And not just within the already morally questionable "hazing" setting, but taking if much further - she removes the condom (again, without MC's consent, and that thing is there for a reason), then attempts literal penetration while being her manipulative self and relying on social pressure to quiet any potential objection from the MC.

Which works to a degree even IF you, as a player, decide it's not OK - rather than have your character explicitly demand she stops, your character ends up resorting to subterfuge to prevent the act. You're welcome to theorize as to why pick that over direct confrontation, but it does not change the fact that Quinn tried to sexualy force herself on MC at that point.

Quinn won't rape you and everything will be okay for you. Shocking, right? (Pun intended) Quinn tasing MC right before that event occurs is way worse honestly.

Everything will be ok for "me" even if I see some on-screen penetration from Quinn, regardless of whether I like her as a character or not, because it's not happening. It's fiction.

But within the settings of that fictional story, Quinn is perpetrating a sexual assault in both moral and legal terms (at least as applicable to the US jurisdictions that I'm aware of).

Personally? I'd rather get tazed (and I know from first-hand experience how unpleasant that is) than have somebody force themselves on me sexually to that degree even in private settings, much less in the ones depicted. Because the latter goes, to me, beyond merely "unpleasant."

Let me sum up the assaults MC has undergone so far for you:

Some of this would absolutely put MC in legal trouble in real world situation, some you purposefully exaggerate.

At a (brief) glance on that short list, nothing is so explicitly predatory as what Quinn does during an already humiliating social experience that is the CUM-petition as applied to hazing (even within the fictional setting of BaDIK, the MC explicitly comments on it, and Rusty kinda-agrees with that perception later on). I have no problem with it as something done consensually between all parties involved, at all - which I believe Rusty also mentions as being engaged in by the DIKs from time to time.

The huge difference is lack of consent during the hazing, coupled with the aforementioned social pressure of that event on its own. And no, I don't think a lot of things done in real-life hazing is either moral, or something to be socially tolerated just because "tradishun."

But anyways, I am serious about your perception of "rape".

So am I, and I am seriously annoyed by people trying to downplay Quinn's actions as they are represented within the story.

My ex was a victim of rape, and it happened to her when she was just a child.

I am sorry for her, because you're not the only one who has had contact with a victim and witnessed the end results first-hand.

You need to learn what rape actually is, because you have absolutely no idea about it and make a fool out of yourself by saying this is rape.

Way to ignore the "attempted" part of the term I used.

And perhaps it is not I who should take a moment, step back, don't let personal bias toward a fictional character overrule logic, and reconsider their stance of what constitutes sexual assault and what does not.

I will not compromise on this, for exactly the same reasons you think I am somehow devaluing the term I use. We're not playing a game of "who had it worse" here, either. Sexual assault is sexual assault, and while you can get all technical about what "attempted rape" should mean in your opinion, Quinn's act remains as reprehensible as it is regardless of the label you put on it.

This story that Quinn raped the MC was simply the most absurd I have ever seen on this thread.

Some people around here really need to learn to stop and think about the shit that goes through their heads before they get out.

I generally tend to consider my words before writing them. For that matter, I never wrote that "Quinn raped the MC," either - I wrote that she attempted to.

Since you're calling for deliberation prior to posting, at the end I'd appreciate if you took a moment to consider that this disagreement started with people mocking and attempting to be offensive toward a real person because of mutually conflicting interpretation of a fictional character. One of said people hasn't even bothered to offer a shred of explanation as to why the thinly veiled accusations were issued in the first place, despite a - I thought - polite and explicit request to do so.

But hey, the internet is a wonderful place. *shrug*

1) Love of magic it's one of the best game. I suggest to try that game. Especially if you like poker. No incest(or optional)
2) "the intoxicating flavor", good game but the story it's similar to LOST and a bit creepy(you will understand why). If you like psychology theme you will love it
3) Spacecorps XXX, funny game and if you love space/cyberpunk theme you will love it
4) Alison fall of the apple, it's an ok game with no incest and good mature story(a bit sad)
5) Betrayed, ok game with no incest but almost no plot. The gameplay it's original
6) Pine Falls, ok game with no incest. Mysterious story. It's inspired to the famous game "Alan Wake"

Can we collectively push this thread more towards memes, reaction GIFs and lighthearted theorising interspersed with pictures of tits rather than dick waving and demonstrating everything we learned in high school debate about fallacies and grandiloquence?
