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

[felicemastronzo]

So, if we honest, what MC is doing is actually the proper way to do the whole "dating" thing. So while peoples call him a man whore, He actually just looking for the right one

and no!!! this is not good!!!

that Mc is a manwhore there is no question!!! that's why bad things happen to him and LIs are forced not to trust him!!!

There's Daniels K's games, I guess. Dusklight Manor, Pine Falls, etc. He does the weird phenomena conspiracy thing, too. I stay away from his games, though, since he's good at build up, but consistently shits the bed for conclusions.

Pine falls didn't really have a conclusion did it?

Edit: From what I remember, part two seemed like he ran out of ideas and just ended it. No conclusion just ended it.

There's College Kings which closely resembles BaDIK (blatant ripoff).

Isn't everything just a rip-off of a rip-off to begin with.

Thats pretty much how all his games end, from what I understand. But yes, there was a proper ending, if you can all it that. A handful of "MC escapes with his LI" endings that didn't solve any of the problems and a "MC becomes the puppet of an evil goddess and helps the people of the cursed town" ending.

Part 2 of PF was pretty shit, though. I almost rage quit midway with how "I'm just killing time because I don't know what I'm doing" it was.

Dating has been confused over time.

Taking a girl out on a date (movies, restaurant, picnic) etc, means you're dating her. You don't know if "this is the one" so you date her to see if you're compatible, you like her, etc.

Putting too much emphasis on dating (must be exclusive) is why people end up in shit relationships. They don't play the field, they just latch on to one person, and if they feel that person isn't right for them, they have a hard time breaking up. And a lot of people just settle because they've invested so much time in the relationship.

If you date a bunch of girls at the same time (like not literally at the same time, but on different days), you've got grounds for comparison, and you're not taking it too seriously. Once you start to get really serious with one girl, that's when you go exclusive, to show her you are serious.

"Dating" is just going out with a girl. When you get serious, the old fashion term used to be "going steady".

America used to follow this approach too. Now everyone takes shit too seriously.

I blame this confusion more so on a generational gap.

Being a millennial, if I tell a friend im dating someone there's an immediate assumption that im using 'dating' interchangeably with 'in a relationship.' I understand what 'going steady' means and how it was used, but it's something I in my 20+ years of living have never, ever, heard come out of the mouth of someone from my generation. It makes sense in my mind why 'dating' has become shorthand for a relationship for my age group.

If I could drop some millennial urban dictionary translations for the older folks:
Talking = older generation 'dating'
dating = in a relationship

You talk to multiple people while you play the field, you're dating when you've settled into exclusivity.

I feel like this conversation was steered into explaining what dating actually is rather than the semantic differences between generations which is what I tried and failed to convey in my OG post.

There is no 3 days rule or 3 dates rule.

I also just want to make sure this is clear, I have never heard of the 3 date rule. It's not an American thing (at least for the younger generations) at all.

I would stop talking to someone if I had to wait 3 official dates for sex, that sounds like high school behavior. Sex isn't one of those things treated as a reward for good behavior or for enduring archaic dating practices at this point.

Wouldn't call it a blatant rip off. It's doing its own thing and I like the sex scenes and fight mechanics over Badik. (You should play it if you haven't already)

Hello from me! How are you DIKS?

Hello from me! How are you DIKS?

Soft.

Agree on the tear, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt of not knowing that the standard DAZ facial expression on some models, before modifying it, can be a slight curl of the lips that looks like a smile. So DPC probably just put in their base Mona model without any changes to her facial expression, and since the image was very dark, people wouldn't notice.

Smiling was the wrong word for me to use. I do not know how to describe it. In the German language, it would be called a "fieses Schmunzeln".
It comes close to a very, very slight nasty grin.

I have a question. I am gonna download clean version for a new episode, will my modded saves work with it?

They won't. Or shouldn't, at least. I've had a weird moment where it did once.

From what I hear, Scrappy is super fast with updating the mod for BADIK, though. So waiting for it shouldn't be long at all.

 

[dalli_x]

Where are these picture from? A mod?

This is the Scrappy mod. I use it to fill up the money. The run I have finished, however, is without using the setting for RP and variables.

I have to sometimes not be a troll. I have a respectable reputation as the Uncle to maintain, after all.

Can anyone give save file? i lost my own save.

WVM is more of a BaDIK ripoff than College Kings though. I tried it way back, found the models horrible and the storyline even more absurd and decided not to play it ever again.

Nah, he's a proper slut.

You take a girl out on a date, (dinner, movie, skydiving, whatever) and she finds out you've fucked 10+ different girls in the last couple of weeks, she'll rightly be all like, "ewww STDs much?"

That's a bit weird though. You take a girl out for dinner (one on one, not a group of friends), you don't say, "I'm taking her out on a talk", it's totally a date. So you can take girls out on dates, but you're not dating them?

Thats where the confusion comes in, dating vs going on a date.

Talking/hanging is the equivalent to going on a date. (the younger generation isn't so much the wine n dine like older generations)

And dateing/going out is the equivalent to being in a committed relationship.
