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

[ename144]

I'm on my 4th playthrough today and I was trying to pay extra attention to the Bella components, and this is my current suspicion as to what's kinda going on.

I'm guessing Bella and her Husband James were living together and about 3+ years ago James was either watching their child at home and the kid fell in the pool and drowned, or James was driving and got in some sort of car accident that killed their child. I think Bella initially blamed James for the death and shut him out. This is supported at least potentially by the fact that on Bella's book shelves she has a small assortment of children's books like the three little pigs, and a goofy book (there's a few others too). The locked door I believe is her son/daughter's room.

Bella in the pool told MC that she forgave James and wonders if he'll come home, or if what she's doing with MC is adultery and if she should just move on. Jill I'm guessing may have gotten pregnant as a teen and either had it terminated, or lost it. The pamphlet on Jill's dresser is about some sort of support group (or something similar), and i'm guessing that's where Jill and Bella met and are so close. I'm less sure about my conjecture about Jill, but her questions on the date about which date for sex and such might have been because she might have either had sex too young, or been raped potentially? This would make sense why she leans on the fact that her money doesn't bring happiness. I worry a bit about Rusty being a bit rolled up into this, since she questions MC about his thoughts on him.

Again this is all just speculation, but I think there might be some decent clues around this.

(Edit) Upon watching the rest of the date scene with Jill, perhaps instead of her losing a baby or something like that, she was in a support group because she lost her older sister, and Bella now is kind of filling that void.

I think the support campaign is about standing up to bullying. It's clearly a subject dear to Jill's heart and would be an easy sell as a college campaign.

As for Bella losing a child, it's possible, but I don't see much to support it. I'd be wary reading to much into the books on Bella's shelves (pun not intended), because a lot o those art assets are probably not developed specifically for this game. (For example, take a close look at the bulletin board in Maya's room and see if you think she actually wrote all of it.) Also, I'd expect they would have wanted the baby's room upstairs near their own bedroom, rather than all the way downstairs.

Finally, the death of a child seems like the sort of thing everyone around B&R would know about. If Bella and her husband broke up for private reasons, I would expect most people wouldn't inquire too closely for details unless they were very close friends. But the death of a child is extremely noteworthy and hard to keep private. Even if people didn't know the details, the mere fact Bella broke up after the death would be hard to miss.

actually looks like a $20 Bill

It only counts as $ on the money scale thing. Meh it actually looks like EU script but either way.

 

[ename144]

She replaces that 10$ every day and never complains. She pretty much financed my "restaurant" bills

That's why I stopped taking the money in my later playthroughs. It just feels wrong given how much her need for money drives the story. And frankly I don't need it.

Since he started with Riona he should continue with it. And it's high time we get Quinn, and maybe Heather's past with Tommy, and Nicole, and Ashley, and Mona, AND KRJ!!! More Swyper and Rooster please! Out of all of them, I am currently the least interested in knowing about Elena.

I'm actually a bit curious about Elena. We know she's part of the drug clique, but she seems fairly level headed otherwise. Be nice to know more about her.

The HOT I'm least interested in is Heather, by a wide margin. I don't find her attractive, her personality is ugly, and the MC certainly doesn't owe her any favors. She and Tommy can go screw off on their own as far as I'm concerned.

Aw see and as sad as it is to say the only interest I have in Heather is simply to get at Tommy. What can I say. I can be a vindictive little shit sometimes.

Someone mentioned that it was the colouring of Canadian (?) money?

Its actually just a Daz bundle. It could be based off Canadian..... NVM just looked it up. Definitely not Canadian

Color is off but its close

Just as I thought, I can't play animations without the blackscreen. I tried to update the Windows DirectX or play in different renders and every single one of them leads to blackscreen

Might just be that the chip on your motherboard cant handle them. Sucks.

Maya is very flip-floppy. She might be bipolar. Can't check out her closet, but she's okay with taking her money. Can't let her leg rest on his crotch, but she's cool with hand on a gstring and ass. Doesn't want him to be attracted to her, yet flaunts around in her gstring and nightie. Rrrrright. That's right, I like to start shit with the characters.

Do you know any other games like this that I can play, specially in cellphones?

I think they meant colour progression, not shape. Euro is like Grey-Red-Blue-Orange. Canadian looks more like it. Are there more ingame notes?

You could try to download a android game. Not sure how that works though I use my PC to play all my games. I pass on playing on my phone. Smart Phone, Dumb Operator.

Bunch in a lot of free roams but none that you can see as clearly if I remember right
