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

[InfiniteIgnorance]

At first I think I remember that Quinn says he has an arrangement with the Jocks, i.e. not only Dawe, although we only know explicitly that the consumers are Chad and Dawe. Getting Chad off his back if he is not their buyer would make sense to secure the deal with Dawe. But it's not something that I can see very clearly, maybe I lack imagination or I missed some information.

SHe did but if you remember she also lied to Tommy and told him she wasn't selling to the Tri-Alphas.

 

[CHAD-MAN]

I said he would do it, not that he did it. The thing is that he show such a lack of morals that i dont think that monogamy will refrain him. Ofc you can still argue that its all about playthrough, but that bring some problems with: how you can talk about a story in wich there is no canonical story? Since everything can be choosed by the player. There is no cannon couse MC had sex with Quin and didnt have sex with Quinn, for example. That makes every argument pointless. So i asume that every sexual partner is canonical.
But even if tecnically didn't cheat... he kind of does. In wich universe you can have sex with a girl like Maya and another like Quinn, when they hate each other, and yet everyone will be cool with that? Or have sex with Bella and go after Jill. Normal girls will react like Ashley, even if Derek didnt even kiss her. As long as they start to develop feelings for the MC, he is being selfish with thoose girls.

Well, IDK how DPC will handle it but I hope its better than the way he did with AL by pushing the MC into a tri-relationship. I am pretty sure eventually he'll close some path if you did certain things or dont break off others, like M&J or Jade choice, pretty sure the same will happen for Jill and Bella (in a similar scenario with Triss and Yen from the Witcher 3). But IDK, we'll see, I trust DPC has a plan and I am pretty sure it wont lead to a harem scenario.

And again, a question arises that no one has asked before. Rick wants coke. It seems to me that he already has experience with it.

So where did he get his coke from before?

This strongly suggests that there is a second drug dealer involved.

It seems to me that RIck is making a rant, like someone in a pub asking for the strongest cocktail they have and then ending up throwing up

when Quinn gives it to him, he doesn't seem to have any idea what to do with it.

He doesn't want it because he's done it before, he just thinks it's trendy.

More evidence of DPC basing this game off 80s movies.

I like it AL, sad but dramatical. Well he doesn't have to fix it. It works couse is a porn game, so most of us are more than willing to sacrifice some coherence for some sex. I agree with you that he has has a plan (i think he said something about that) and defenetely will not end in a harem.

 

[DaBigD]

he doesnt have to lead to a harem. when basically any replay of the game you can take a whole new path, this imo is dpc's evolution of game writing, evolved from AL where at the end of that game, you had a choice, her or her. and that was it. in his new evolution (badik) you have 5 choice endings maybe even a 6th or 7th, if you count trouples. 8 if you break the norms and run away with quinn.

in AL i broke the norm, had a big thing for smurf

I don't think it's that big of a difference... BADIK is a much larger game so the choices will be more diluted, but in the end the structure is always the same, there is not much to invent. you know the girls, choose one, and take it to the end

there are betrayals that go unpunished, others that will have consequences, others that could give a game over

A harem is certainly not happening (unless the game is set in Utah), but I at least hope they allow for a throuple ending this time. It sucked when there was no way to get that in AL, but unlike AL, we're much further along with it in this game in terms of sexual activity and moments between all 3 and we're likely to get more, so to then turn around after all that and deny people that ending no matter what choices they make, or to force another unwinnable choice, would be a huge mistake.

 

[InfiniteIgnorance]

Yes, those were the days when everyone had white noses.

Yep, coke was the rich kid drug of choice in the 1980's. Every movie had someone doing coke with a rolled up hundred dollar bill.

Charlie Sheen still thinks it's the 1980's.

2011 called, it wants its topical reference back.

I think DPC will keep the game real enough that some things won't be possible. My question is when do the choices start mattering? Up til now it seems like no matter what the MC does everything is copacetic.

Fine. It can have it back when the MC gets a real haircut.

 

[Mafjozi]

anyone hav a specific date and hour when this shit releasing,no other game is updating cuz they wait for this one to fade off

 

[drakken]

I also assume that Dawe is behind the blackmail of Chad. Dawe wants the presidential title from Chad. But Dawe has forgotten that he is dumber than a meter of dirt road.

There's no way dawes smart enough to put that together.

But without Rusty there is no free money for all the things they do, the rest would have to spend more of their money for the common things, food, drinks, parties, the house... in other words less available for drugs.

This is why I thought it might be heather wanting Tommy to be top dog. Not thinking about rusty being the bankroll. She was way more worried about Tommy getting in trouble than anyone else.

I'm still not convinced she's only a side dish. There's still time to make her a main course. Of course, it will involve a lot more writing to do that since her character is so far off the rails. The MC likes her but they have very little in common.

More than you think. There's a reason she can't help herself with mc.

So, what does Queen gain?

Free high, money, and ability to compete with vin.

That takes some imagination since street people who deal in marijuana and cocaine don't deal in steroids. Steroids are a controlled substance and it requires a DEA license to obtain them. They are also heavily regulated. It's pretty easy to figure out how a college-age girl would get birth control pills. But I'm not sure Chad was ever buying his PEDs from Quinn. The two dirtbags she was buying form are far too low class to be dealing in Schedule 1 controlled substances. Maybe that's where Troy comes in. Maybe he was thrown out because he refused to buy that crap from either Vinny or Quinn.

Ud be surprised how easy Chinese shit is to get.

 

[gamingdevil800]

DPC be like:

 

[Overam22]

Hell yeh. Gave you your first heart react.

Which love interest you chasing?

I'm totally in love with Jill. Man, she's just so god damn perfect.

 

[felicemastronzo]

there have already been many choices and for now they have remained definitive, let's say that you are allowed not to choose and to take almost all the girls forward

in the second chapter you choose if you want to be Sage's fuckbuddy, for now it's a choice you can't take back afterwards
at the third you decide whether or not to go to Bella in the library, also irreversible
at the fourth Maya and Josy decide whether to trust you for the trouple
at the fifth you can definitely refuse Jill
at the sixth depending on several factors Quinn is accessible or not...


I would say that there have already been choices

 

[Razrback16]

I actually have to agree with DaBigD here. That was the "pussy test" . The context is important. There is an another time where you can take the "high road ". It is the moment When you ask Jill out on a Date in front of Tybalt.
Be a chick, might sound lame, but in that moment, that " Tybalt, Always a pleasure" Comment from MC is morally more superior, than mocking him.

However, it does not matter what was before it, but that Slap from Tybalt, is disgusting. He basically Slap the MC like he is a lesser human, That exactly how Tybalt see the others, who are not rich , socialy lower than him, His privelge behaviour need to be check on that moment, and put him in to his place.

It's all good, I respect your difference of opinion.

 

[InfiniteIgnorance]

DPC

One good way to end branching is to store its outcome as a variable and use it later to affect the story. It’s an easy way to introduce a system where choice matters, and it allows you to kill branches without making the player feel they did something for nothing, as the choice is respected later on in the game.

So, we're just supposed to guess if the choices the MC makes have a major impact, a minor one, or no impact whatsoever on future events. In that case, I demand a third option for every choice:

"Fucked If I Know"

 

[Alfagrem]

I'm not sure we can attribute the blackmailing of Chad and Dawe to part of some scheme to place the Tri-Alphas under supervision and an assault on Quinns customer base.

Whoever did it could not foresee that Chad would go out looking to fight with the MC or even if they somehow saw it as a high probability worth the risk of showing their hand then it might not of even got back to the counsellors if it had been for Auntie Jill's meddling.

As we don't know exactly what was in Chads letter then all we have are the photo's sent to Dawe and if the intent of both letters was the same then it was to make the AAA's and the DIK's 'go to war' so who profits from that?



Dalli time - In addition to her medicinal and restaurant lines of work, Quinn also runs a local glazing business and therefore she profits everytime a dildo is launched through the air.
