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

[Casmyr]

Holy moly, I don't know how and I can't even imagine how long it will take, but that's interesting.

5 years from now we'll still be debating the same theories with both old and new faces on page 17k

 

[Malicre]

It's like the Maya situation, if you aren't on her path you don't care about the drama with her daddy, I've played Mass Effect 30 times, I'm done with daddy drama. All I want from her daddy to drive a wedge between her and Josy so MC can swoop in and get with Jose.

Actually you're wrong about that. Even if you ignore Maya/Josy for 99% of the game your still forced into the encounter with her dad and there's no way around it, hell its one of the few cannonical events that happen in the game for EVERYONE regardless of what paths/routes your on.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Exactly. As soon as I saw DPC saying this will be longer than expected, I thought...how?? I just don't understand how DPC can have that much more story to tell in BaDIK. I mean I'm happy for more content, don't get me wrong, but once you narrow down the LIs to one chosen girl (or possibly two in the case of M&J) so early in the story, what's left to do over the course of several more seasons in a college porn game? If DPC doesn't allow for a harem, then it basically goes from fun, manwhorish hijinks to boring married life for a dozen more episodes.

I don't see it that way.

indeed in my opinion it is after having conquered her (Jill or any other LI) that the beauty of the story could begin.

I give stupid and trivial examples just to give the idea.

MC chooses Sage, and with her he cleans and rebuilds the HOTs both as an image, after the scandals, and as a group. or together they rebuild a healthy relationship with her family

Mc chooses Jill, there is all the social gap to overcome, Neil who has to face the ghosts of the past of a relationship dortely conditioned by the fact that Lynette's family has never accepted "a poor man" among them, could even go so far as to oppose to the report making Mc.

there is so much to say after "the first night"


if anything, I am more concerned about what Holy Bacchus says, the idea of playing the last 7-8 chapters (in view of the 20 total) in a regime of complete fidelity promises to be a very boring path



on the first character I would say that I aim at 80% on Maya, 10% Sage and 10% Quinn

 

[Kellermann]

MC chooses Sage

Say no more.

 

[Malicre]

Funny enough there's a 99% chance my MC will end up alone unless DPC shocks us with some endings with the side chicks.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Say no more.

do you want to tell me?

I speak of the other LIs only because I am for democracy

 

[Warscared]

12-18 hours per day, dude this is insane

not when you do what you love! i clocked in 2 days around 20 hours and the minimum for that week was 12 hours ! with an average of 14 hours a week for that month, if you do what you love you wont work a single day in your life! yes i´m no longer 20 somethings and once you hit a certain age you need longer to recover! once you hit a few milestones there´s plenty of previleges that you acquire and well run companies know the right incentives to reward you properly! been shown that small rewards scatered trough out time makes more productive workers!

as for if the game is going to have 20 episodes i´m calling it out right now there will be one episode for each main LI so from the 15th onward you get an update for each path possible and ofc the last one for the man whore path! I´m still so going to go and replay ep5 refuse all sex except Sage and start my Harem route where i become the king of the hot`s Sarah eyes heather tits Quinn ass all mine!

I wonder if it can be considered multiple personalities having 120 saves ?

 

[Holy Bacchus]

Holy moly, I don't know how and I can't even imagine how long it will take, but that's interesting.

Well, based on current dev times and provided they don't get longer, you're looking at the completion of a 20 episode game by around late 2026, or early to mid 2027.

Actually you're wrong about that. Even if you ignore Maya/Josy for 99% of the game your still forced into the encounter with her dad and there's no way around it, hell its one of the few cannonical events that happen in the game for EVERYONE regardless of what paths/routes your on.

From the Q&A, "I try to include characters in the story, even if the player has no romantic interest in them."

So, yeah, that's why they're here to stay.

Funny enough there's a 99% chance my MC will end up alone unless DPC shocks us with some endings with the side chicks.

Quinn is probably the only side girl who might have a secret ending if you don't end up with any main LIs but hit specific flags with her.

Still better than one other game that we probably will wait 2026/2027 for the sex with another male
And 2030+ for the final version.

I am still waiting for the second date with the Dual Family mother ....

Gonna be very unlikely to hit 12 episodes. He is already force feeding, and that is a sign of some death or housefire or some shit like that. While being positive, I am saying he will resolve it, perhaps dramatically, but no way it goes beyond 12 episodes. Frankly we may not hit 10.
No side girls suddenly becoming LI, and that includes the extremely popular but still side girl Quinn. Sadly also includes Envy/Nicole, Jade, and or Cathy. No Cammy, no Sara..... And probably no LI hahahaha

That game's got another 16 years left in it at the current rate of development, at least this one won't take that long.

 

[TrainHardnett]

I trade you Quinn and take Nicole and/or Lily instead.

 

[Holy Bacchus]

I trade you Quinn and take Nicole and/or Lily instead.

Nicole and Lily would've been great as main LIs. They're both so incredibly gorgeous.

 

[Arigon]

I will trade all the rest for Bella, Lily and Nicole, and we will head to that little kingdom in Sisterly Lust in case the girls have sisters or mothers to include....oh, and Sage........ yeah that is a hard one... I could give up Sage for those 3.... but would need to be all 3

Belugio is my idea of heaven.

 

[Arigon]

If that is true, BaDIK just got 10x better. Quinn is something and she also could be the main LI. To me everything about her is interesting and mysterious, my kind of woman

yeah.. not gonna happen tho... I will bet money she dies.

 

[travelman]

Don't delude yourselves, everybody knows all the LI's are just a decoy and only and true secret ending is marriage with Jade after she divorces Burke once he goes to jail. All the M&J triangle players get the rope for being excluded from true route and true ending.
God darn, it feels good being on the right side of history.

 

[KoolMe]

Late to the discussion by a couple pages but for me the best non lewd scenes/moments are

1.Camilla trying to cheer up Mona during class
2.Anthony dancing
3. Bella lip bite
4. Tybalt slap slo-mo

they are my favorite too
but nothing can top it when the dev gives the players some miniscule creative freedom :-

He comes out today, saying that 14 is the minimum it's looking like. And you're all like lolnogameover.

It's like you have a version of this game you are developing in your head, and you get hurt everytime Pinkcakes goes a different route. Just because you can't imagine a game that goes 20 episodes doesn't mean it's not possible.

And plus Pinkcakes ending this game means he's ending his cashflow, only an idiot does that. Keep the gravy train running, CHOO CHOO motherfucker.
