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

[felicemastronzo]

Yeah, they don't seem like the "at each other's throats" kind of gals, especially since they are best friends. A more subdued rivalry may be in their future. Bella vs. Sage, that one could be interesting to see. Sage has jealous anger issues and Bella doesn't take crap from anyone. DPC never lets MC sneak around either. He always seems to throw a third girl into a scene to stir things up.

wanting to be a fan writer, I could say that if Jill found out about Bella she could simply walk away from MC without giving him an explanation, ending up with Tybalt for a bad ending.
while Bella, who actually knows about Jill and MC, if the relationship with Jill becomes serious she could disappear, giving up her husband, wherever he is

relationships with Jill and Bella are the only ones that can already end very badly ...

I agree.

I fear the most when it comes to the point where we have to choose. Or when one of them finds out that the MC is not faithful.
Of course, for me, Jill comes first. But I like Bella very much too.. I'm making a second save for her.
Even though Jill and Bella are my favorite women, I'm starting to like Sage more and more.

I must start playing as a faithful MC. Because so far I'm playing ''man-whore'' (romancing every woman) Which doesn't say well about me.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Yeah, that can go one of more than a couple of ways I am thinking. Most obvious is fireworks, Jill freaks and Bella offers to bail.
Next Jill freaks, offers to bail
Next Jill freaks, Bella freaks and MC freaks, with a cliff hanger
Next is Jill freaks, Bella tells her to chill and MC says how about both of you- they both dump him
Next as previous but they accept the thruple.
Next, Jill doesn't freak, but she and Bella force MC to choose.
Next is Jill doesn't freak, asks Bella to thruple with MC and they all accept.
Last is Jill doesn't freak, asks Bella and MC to thruple and Bella says no, makes MC choose.

the problem with these twists, which is a bit of BADIK's problem, is that they wouldn't apply to all players.

With Jill you can't go beyond the first date, at which point Bella should worry about?
with Bella if you want you can just get kicked out of the library ...

and for a step that would affect only a part of the players, does it make sense that DPC put so much effort into development?

for this I doubt that they can be excessively complex scenes, and that they have to be resolved in a short time, relationships are discovered and the girls decide in or out and then it goes on

of course it would be a different case if we talked about the game ending, in that case it is right that there are different endings depending on the choices made

You're all worried about whom the MC ends up with in the end while I'm worried about my immersion breaking if he doesn't drift apart from everyone and never speak to them again once he's done with uni.

 

[Ilhares]

Is it just me, or does Tybalt look like he had a life changing moment? He almost looks like a bit more of a bad ass, and certainly more handsome than our MC. Highly troubling if you ask me......

Bad taste aside, I don't think he's looking better - he looks like he's succumbing to illness. I've had a few friends that started to thin out in the face a bit like that, before finding out they had terminal cancer. They seemed fine, right up until just before the end.

Of the people I still semi-regularly communicate with, at least three or four of them go back to my schooling days. I guess the amount of this might be dictated by how far away from your home/schooling region you wind up living.

That's good to hear, hope it lasts! I was only joking of course but if the dev wants another melancholic ending I'd like to see it happen tbh.

I have a simple theory. Tybalt finished puberty and probably had a honest day's work, thats why he looks thinner, tired. Because he's finally turning into a man

its the 12th of november where im at right now...i feel like a druggie waiting for my fix lmao

 

[Dashxp4k]

One thing I noticed in Ep.5, there are several times that Jill gives MC or Bella a funny look as if she suspects something is going on. First, was when Bella says "That`s my favorite song" and MC says "I remember", Jill does this intense stare...the other time was when we are cooking the pancakes and Jill does this silent look again...I remember thinking "Oh Shit"...

that was intense

[Kellermann]

DPC, we need to talk. Maybe this is normal attire for dudes in Sweden, but no...just no.

Even MC has a look on his face like, why in the name of Carolus Rex would you put me in these clothes?

Guys, newbie question here. I've caught on the story on the last update, so i don't know how some things work here when a new version is out.

I have a save with the modded game. Will it work with just the update, or do I have to download the full game again? If I download, would my modded save work?
Also, can i just wait for the mod update, then it will work normally in game and I can just continue with my save state? (just done this in CoBD)

If you are modded you’re saves won’t work.

Back your saves up.

Install a clean version of the game (I think the 5.2 version in this thread is pre modded)

Install 6.0

Reinstall the mod.

Put your saves back in place.

Mod will probably take a day or two to update for 6.0 content, but you should be able to use the existing mod to unlock your saves

The patch won't work with a modded game nor will modded saves work with a clean version of the game. You will need a clean version of the game and your 2 options are:

1. Download the full 11GB version of the game on Friday
2. Download the clean 0.5.0 either from this torrent or one of these DDL links then you can just download the 3GB patch.

Since modded saves files don't work with a clean version, you have a few options on how to deal with this:

1. Start the game again from the beginning (gallery unlocks should still be there and you should be able to skip through until Ep 6) and make all new clean saves
2. Use the "mod error" fix linked in the OP and hope it still works for Ep 6, if not, then you can wait for it to be updated
3. Wait until the mod is updated and then apply it and your modded saves from before should still work.

I'd recommend getting and keeping a clean version of the game, even if you just keep the zip file for the game, as it will be easier in the long run to have a clean version that you can apply each patch to and then to have a modded copy of the game.

It's still wednesday afternoon in the americas. Evening in europe. And the release is probably going to be based off our timezones.

Ok, got it! I think i will stick with downloading a clean version here from this thread, update to 6.0 when it comes, install the new version of the mod, and put my saves back. This should work. Thanks for the help!

On a side note, I plan on doing clean no-mod run of this game soon. Do you guys think I should be okay with these 3 diferent routes/saves:
- Chick pursuing Jill and Bella (eventually branching for each girl)
- Chick/neutral for Josy/Maya route
- Dik going for Sage and the HOTs, also branching out in new saves as necessary (like if Quinn becomes a main thing)?

What do you guys think? Awesome game, will def subscribe on patreon pretty soon
