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

[Manuka]

Agreed. We already saw that with M&J and how the MC storming out didn't feel right for those who weren't really pursuing them, as did the feelings expressed by M&J towards the MC later in the episode.

You actually get a much more complete picture of things if you go with all the LIs and when you make other decisions, like taking Quinn's number which gives you a lot more insight into her operations.



Sorrow85 posted the Quinn one yesterday, and we haven't seen a Cathy one. Is that today's?

No, that's wrong with M&J. You can't avoid Josy Maya, all those "feelings" are in the open regardless. Same with Quinn's "Operation" you find out the entire story. The only thing is you get to choose a girl. That's it. The rest of the story is revealed.

Edit: It'd be more sensible to choose individual routes to get complete of the storyline. This post doesn't fit the right description for the plot, because the Main plot is with the MC choosing a Love Interest a final one (that's where this is leading up to), everything in between is called "Subplots." They are only there to steer the main character into the direction he will end up choosing. You can't have it all. Multiple playthroughs is the only way to understand that main plot.

I love Quinn! Please introduce a Femdom angle to her character in the later chapters. God I wish my boy gets dominated by her!

Personally, I`d rather my MC dominate her and uncover her soft underbelly

 

[RonnieBoi]

I finally did it. I mustered up the strength to do it, and I went full psycho this latest run through; I stole the money in Jill's room!

You’ll be going to jail for that!

I understand, gentlemen that you want to fuck them all. Justify that you want to broaden your horizons about is a little too much.

Currently we have the situation quite nicely balanced. If the MC does not pursuit any LI, then he is a friend with her. DPC can give us at ease story based information on both paths. The sex scene, whether nicely crafted, does not contribute much to the development of the story.

Otherwise, I think it's time for MC who dates only one LI or M&J to stop talking as if he was dating the whole B&R and the whole swyper.

But you can avoid certain crucial moments with both of them, like staying with Josy after the date, going back to Maya after the DIK party, and staying with Maya rather than going to Quinn if you got her offer, which are crucial moments in establishing the depth of feeling these characters have. The MC can also not offer to help Maya or even send positive messages to her and Josy via text and Rooster, so some players can keep as much distance from both of them as possible yet still have to see them get very emotional in ep 4 as though they had done everything positively.

As for Quinn, knowing about her "menu" is part of the reason why the MC can warn Maya about her, and it may also prove to be an important bit of knowledge later in the game. DPC could always have the MC find out another way, but if they don't, then that lack of knowledge may affect something later on down the line.

Otherwise, on the other hand, I think it's time for MC who dates only one LI or M&J to stop talking as if he was dating the whole B&R and the whole swyper.

I've mentioned my dislike of this before and got royally shot down for it. DPC gives us the option of not doing anything with anyone (or anyone 'else' if pursuing M&J)...so that bit of dialogue really irks me. However, as I mentioned in a post earlier, I guess it's ust one of things you have to overlook and roll with as we are being pushed down a set path by DPC regardless of our choices/interactions.

Another example is if you never do anything on swyper except open it to progress to the next scene, as far as the writing goes/scenes...you still know Cathy is on there, can still choose to tell derek...and can still warn her, regardless whether you sexted with her or not.

As for Quinn, knowing about her "menu" is part of the reason why the MC can warn Maya about her, and it may also prove to be an important bit of knowledge later in the game. DPC could always have the MC find out another way, but if they don't, then that lack of knowledge may affect something later on down the line.

I don't think extra dialogue would be needed. That major affinity choice is pretty obviously spelled out exactly what Quinn means right after she asks you if you get laid a lot and then asks what you would do if you were hungry and didn't want to make food. The main thing with that whole section with Maya (and if you refer to the WT) is exactly what consequences are going to befall our sweet innocent lady if we do not tell her. That could be some dark shit in the future....

And even so, during that moment with Josie or Maya, you still have to choose 1 at the party. Like I said, playing individual routes will be beneficial. That's the intention of the game. Spreading yourself too wide will ruin chances as well. So the only way to get the full picture is to play several times, different routes. That was my point.

I never chose the Quinn menu and I still warned Maya. Quinn explains this "menu" thing very early in the game.

I’m making this a different post since it’s a different subject.

Dr. Pancakes Is now at 7285 patreons(!) this is likely generating somewhere between $36425 and $78250 pcm, not to mention income from STEAM. (based on average $5 or $10 subs). I’m in no way mad About that. I love the game and think he deserves whatever he can get, that said Where would you like to see the ‘extra’ money spent?

Some ideas;

He has mentioned commissioning 2D art for bonus galleries. What about full chapter Comics (with sex) like Tales from the HoTs where they tell stories of weird sexual encounters?

Animated movies. 4 or 5 minute animated sex scenes possibly based on scenes already in the game but full animated without loops, perhaps Using mocap. Like Drills3D or Wilder.

Transfer of the game on to a ‘better’ engine. Something with a bit more flexibility than Renpy.

Additional staff to allow him to focus of writing and art, creating bigger release more rapidly.

 

[Narinna]

So I've downloaded the version of this that's here, and completed it (loved it!) but ep 5 finished, and the comments I'm reading here seem to elude to material that's not from episodes 1-5. Do patreons have access to episode 6?

Dat ass.

(Hit my reaction limit for the day, but will get back to you when it refreshes. )

There is no episode 6 yet, only a few preview images that have been shared and discussed.

 

[Wizard_Shiryuu]

I did it once thinking it might be a render, reloaded immediately, would hate for Jill to take Tybalt's lie seriously.

Well, I technically did it once, then I saw the Tybalt conversation and reloaded. Then I misclicked on it some versions later and noticed the warnings. Have those always been there? At first I though that it was like robbing Maya blind, without consecuences, but I don't know if those warnings weren't there back then or I just disregarded them.

No, that's wrong with M&J. You can't avoid Josy Maya, all those "feelings" are in the open regardless. Same with Quinn's "Operation" you find out the entire story. The only thing is you get to choose a girl. That's it. The rest of the story is revealed.

Yeah, having a scandal with Sage if you're not on her path it's not the same as making you romantically involved with her if you don't want to.

No, nobody does until sometime around October. What you're seeing relates to scenes that are exclusive to particular paths, you need multiple playthroughs to see everything.

 

[Manuka]

Exactly this. Especially given there is a flag in the code if you sleep with either of them in Ep5. That is a major defining moment for the future. Which is why I have 4 saves purely for them...2 each for M&J where sleep with each, and 2 each where they reject me...and I go to to each to talk in Ep5.

Exactly my point. It's impossible to go with "all girls" because you miss so much of the few that you can fully pursue. I have multiple save points, too.

 

[theScumbag]

I'd sampled this game before, like the part where Maya has to seduce MC before the MC gets tasered -- and then the scene directly after. That was all that was available at that time. I finally got to downloading this latest, full version. And what a completely immersive & expansive game. I love almost all the girls for various reasons. I've spent the better part of my free time over the past couple of days replaying all the different branches to complete all the available scenes (and I've finally done it including the 5th chapter). Great bloody game. Can't wait for more shenanigans in future updates~!

 

[Narinna]

ahh interesting, I never really considered there would be that much content that was exclusive to certain 'routes'. Looks like I'm doing another few playthroughs!

I don't know if guys playing this game get the same thing, but as a girl, I'm totally pissed off about M&J - I was going team Maya all the way!

 

[Maviarab]

Agreed Manuka. I don't have multiple save points (I'm happy to play the whole thing again from scratch, doesn't take long if you auto forward), I do however have 15 different saves (current count) considering all 'possible' and 'potential' permutations from different events, however minor they might seem right now in the story.

I also believe that if you screw as many girls as possible (so just doing 2 runs, one full chick and one full dik)...it will have consequences, as even a girl like Sage....would have an issue sooner or later (even in real life) with you sticking it into anything with 2 legs. So yes, I do completely agree that I think one LI only runs (with exception of M&J) will be pretty important if you actually want to end up with that girl.

I don't know if guys playing this game get the same thing, but as a girl, I'm totally pissed off about M&J - I was going team Maya all the way!

Only with the MC's ridiculous reaction...I can understand both their point of veiws personally and get their personalities and why they kept certain things to themselves. Didn't bother me in the slightest and is perfectly reasonable in my own perspective. I don't see that either really did anything wrong given the whole context and neither of them owed the MC a damn thing in reality.

Interesting to hear a females perpective though for sure, which bit/part annoyed you specifically?

 

[theScumbag]

MC and Josy/Maya: I think MC had a right to feel aggrieved but ultimately since he's (if you're playing it right hehe) banging every girl silly... he should really just let it go, and let the 2 girls be happy with one another.

But if you explore the game in a certain way, MC gets an interesting option to do something between the two girls midway through 5th chapter.

That's how I felt playing this, then when I met Jill, I totally flipped and had to start over. But since then, I've played multiple routes. It's nice to see another girl on here besides me, lol.

I just hope he doesn't screw up my goals with Jillian lol.

 

[Narinna]

Interesting to hear a females perpective though for sure, whaich bit/part annoyed you specifically?

Honestly I agree with you, I don't think anyone 'owed' anything to anyone in that particular moment, but for me given the relationship issues between M&J it felt false for me for them to stick with each other. I would have thought, given MC's overreaction and the girls' issues, that all three would have parted ways romantically until the story progressed to either push two of the characters together (or all three of them - who cares).

Realistically though, I probably just became way too invested in the MC's growing relationship with Maya and that story for some reason. The writing and development is incredible, I've been totally hooked on it for the last few days
