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

[mindern]

Unknown. We haven't yet seen what, if any, consequence there will be for not warning her.

I’m in two minds about the consequences and I think it’s gonna end up being a illusion anyway. Not warning Maya about Quinn should be a plot point based on what Quinn has been up to. That said even if you do choose to warn Maya the MC is ambiguous as fuck about it and nothing comes of Maya speaking up. She’s in the same position regardless of the warning.

MC should just tell her Quinn is a pimp and it’s been heavily implied that is how the HOTs pay for the rumoured free tuition. The fact the MC hasn’t put two and two together after conversations like the one with Camilla in Ep5 means I think warning Maya is gonna be largely moot and the reveal will largely play out the same (perhaps with a nod to the warning) because even if you tell her she doesn’t actually learn anything she didn’t learn about Quinn in 30 seconds of knowing her.

What does the MC’s warning tell her about Quinn that the time she TASER’d someone didn’t already tell her?

If it's anything, it'll probably be nothing. She'll likely find out about it as well as finding out that the MC knew about it and either thank the MC for warning her to expect something bad, or be annoyed at him for not warning her, and if he didn't warn her and is in a relationship with her it will hurt the relationship.

That'll probably be the extent of the "consequences".

Is her a cheat to get insta be medium or chicken? Cuz Maya is my fav.

There is a cheat mod but I recommend creating copy of the game to install it on because future updates will not work if you have the mod installed which means you need to always have a clean, unmodified version of the game.

MC's warning is so general that I would be surprised if it had any consequences.

telling maya that Quinn is "evil" is like warning the sheep to watch out for the wolf

wait, how do I uninstall the cheat mod? Or do I have to re-install the game? If so, how do I save my save files?

The 2nd one. The mod replaces some of the original files so you'd need to download the full game again. As for the saves, they're in the hidden AppData folder, but if you made saves using the mod then they won't work on the clean version so you'll have to play the game all over again and replace those saves with clean ones.

I guess its too much to ask to see more of Karen Rebecca Johnson who is 19 years 2 moths old, been at school for 2 years, doesnt like conflicts or dogs, got her first hearing aid at 7 years young, is afraid of cows, wants to be a librarian because of its low 44db noise level even though her mom wanted her to be a veterinarian, and enjoys history and latin.

Unironically sweet and cute. Maybe as a joke ending secret route.

MC will treat you too, maybe you won't like therapy but he will treat you with SO MUCH love

I Presume it will be to do with the 'proof'. If you warn her she won't show it or give it to Quinn. If you don't warn her Quinn uses the video for blackmail.

Couple of things I realised on the playthrough i'm doing at the moment;

1. The date with Jade/ Burke and Bella, is arranged in Episode 1. So the first Friday is the night of the date. That helps explain why Jade is mad since it's still fresh. Be interesting if we find any more details out about it.

2. Derek and MC still have to get thier revenge on Quinn which they plan in episode 2. Can imagine she'd be kind of furious if some steals her. But also can imagine her just being like ah fuck it and walking around naked.

Hmm... stealing her clothes implies going through her stuff. Which could reveal some extra details about her?
Quinn might be okay with being naked, but the thought of someone invading her privacy like that would very likely piss her off.
I'm not sure I would wanna do that... Or would I?

I disagree, if it wasn't important DPC wouldn't have hinted that that choice would have consequences for Maya.

That wasn't a "date", it was a "drinks with colleagues" ruse by Burke to try and proposition Bella for a threesome which was rejected, and I'd say that explains more about why the MC pick up on Bella not liking Jade when he stays with her in ep 4 because she's mad at her for going along with Burke in proposing such a thing.

Most likely Lynette's Dad filed frivolous lawsuits claiming he did something wrong when he did that job where he met Lynette out of vindictive spite to ruin him. Probably has troubles getting bank loans, credit cards, and things like that because they have some kind of BS black mark against his name.

I believe MC explained what happened in Ep3 when he had the cafeteria chat with Bella.

"My dad was worried about me after I came home one day from school...with bruises all over my arms.​

The cool kids at school had this stupid challenge to see how many times they could punch me before I reacted.​

I was known as the kid who just sat there... I learned to take their insults and just ignore them...​

They didn't like that.​

After that, dad taught me how to fight...well, he taught himself, too.​

He had never done it before and he could barely afford the training gear.​

His usual hobbies were a bit less action filled...​

Like solving crossword puzzles, meditation, collecting stamps and coins, reading and of course...home improvement.​

You see, he's a carpenter, so he really enjoys that sort of thing.​

We practiced almost daily and I could feel how I got a real confidence boost from it.​

Dad made me promise to never use what he taught me for anything other than self-defense.​

I guess by doing that he imparted good morals and to not become a bully myself.​

For me, training was a great way to bond with my dad. I never wanted to fight anyone.​

Until one day...when I didn't have a choice.​

I could sense how that punch was coming my way.​

But the boy throwing it never saw mine coming right back at him.​

In self-defense, I beat him.​

I beat him so hard that my fists got blood all over them.​

The other kids did nothing. They just stood there on the sidelines and stared.​

They watched me hit their friend. Repeatedly.​

Until eventually a teacher came and broke it up.​

You think that a teacher would side with the victim.​

But when there are so many voices against one...​

...it's hard to make yours heard.​

Apparently, I wasn't the victim.​

The parents of the boy I beat up wanted to press charges against my dad for teaching me how to fight.​

Luckily for me and my dad, they never did."​

Yeah, I thought about that too.
But just like it says there at the end, they never pressed charges. Did they settle that outside of court or something?

That still doesn't explain why he struggles to make ends meet due to legal issues because nothing happened here.

If legal issues are causing financial issues, then it's a financial legal issue like having a large amount of debt, or committing bank fraud, or defaulting on mortgages, things of that nature.
