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

[crabsinthekitchen]

As for Bella, how things developed seem very odd, at least for me since I wasnt actively pursuing her, but asked for her help and went to the library in episode 3. The game just seemed to assume it wasnt a platonic move.

the important choice with Bella comes in Ep. 5 and it's pretty obvious

Also, apparently my MC mentions Josy to Derek despite I never truly chosing to make a move on Josy (episode 2 dinner end up sooner) and my MC admitting to Derek in the preps party in episode 5 that he has feelings for Maya. Its just weird overall. I feel like DPC is pushing some choices in the same way Megan was pushed in Acting Lessons.

well, yeah, but even if you didn't do anything, MC still had a huge crush on Josy before college started, so in a way he is moving on from that. and if you think that it was so long ago it's not worth mentioning, only a month passed since college started

I get it. Still, a choice after sparing to keep things as they were or try something else would be better than DPC just assuming the MC has feelings for Sage

Ok, I agree with that one

I guess I'm just not understanding what he's saying about Sage but, where does DPC assume that the MC has feelings for Sage?

 

[JohnDelfino]

no need to go that far, you can just not go to the sauna with her in Ep.5

Really? That is better at least.

Zirael Q, I agree with everything you said. I felt all three scenes were great for each girl, depending on who you wanted to be with, but overall I felt Quinn's was more meaningful. Everything that happened there was a step forward in the relationship:

• She wasn't scornful at all. When the mc naively realizes the Hookah is a drug her response is quite nice, she's enjoying the mc's naivety on a much more pleasant level than usual.

• Her suggesting that he doesn't have to pay her for sex anymore is big. He had to convince her most other times to do it for free, she gave in each time, but now she's saying she wants to do it with him for them, not for money.

• She's not the kind of girl to make out with a guy, she's either looking to gain something or after sexual gratification, so for her to agree to make out, that's a massive step for her. At first she's unsure, but then she just enjoys it for what it is.

• She even does a sexy dance for the mc, just for fun, no real ulterior motive, she's not trying to get one up on him or play mind games, they were just chilling and enjoying each other.

• When the mc starts to feel a bit green, she's cool about it, rather than calling him a pussy or something.

• Her coyly offering him a blow job, all her haughtiness is long gone in this encounter.

• Then she gives him a blowjob and fucks him, nothing seriously significant here, but it's good to see she can cum from anal.

All in all it was a next level experience with Quinn. It's just sad she was still guarded about personal things, like what she's reading and what she's studying. We're getting there.

The other girl's scenes were fun:

• Sex with Maya while sharing the mc's mom's movie choice (which was interestingly atrocious) was a way for them to bond on multiple levels.
• And Josy's scene was a gossip fest, so that was fun too.

But Quinn took the (space) cake.

Love these summaries you do of Quinn moments!

I guess he means that Sage and the MC had only agreed to fuck buddy's and the MC in this episode when sparring in his room out of nowhere tells her he wants more than that and DPC doesn't give you a choice on the matter to be fuck buddies and nothing more.
I was taken by surprise by the MC when he said that he wanted more than just fuck buddy and also that "rebound guy" thing.

This game is really above many others, never thought I'd play a porn game for everything else but porn

She follows up MC's "let's hang out more" message, invites him to her place. Asks probably the biggest question a girl can ask(how many times you have scored?), offers a free meal from her restaurant (don't think that's unimportant, she scolded Camila for doing it before so hard she tells that to MC). If you choose her(like there was any other option ), she says you don't need to pay for that.
Literally asks for permission to succ(at the rooftop she said it's only for that time but now we see how much she changed since then in MC's case) and does all the work by herself afterwards. She also gets off in an affectionate way.
If you take the scene just by itself, yeah it was very linear and short. But if you take it in the context, it's probably the best. Hell, her cuddling with MC makes it best by itself

maybe you are right...

my problem with the Quinn scene is psychological, it's a scene that's more important to us players than it is to MC. it's us players who see the most important part.

and the more DPc wants us to like Quinn, the more I fear for her.

a Quinn who is still looking for Maya's video (why do you think? to cancel her promotion to HOT or to blackmail her?)i doubt she can have a happy ending

My main problem with Quinn is how she is always trying to drug the MC. Like for real, first on the roof, then in her room. Does she only feel confortable with the Protagonist if he is half passed out from drugs? (I know the answer is prolly yes) Give it a rest, but then again that is my personal distaste for licit or ilicit drugs.

I think there is also the distant possibility (but possibility at last) that Quinn would have wanted to see the evidence to make sure that the list was not completed with the MC.... Yes, it's a very vanilla theory for a rather hardcore character, but who's to say that Quinn's cool side doesn't exist?

at least she only pushes MC towards soft drugs for now...

in the context of BADIK, smoking two joints I would say is not serious, or at least I don't perceive it as serious

so you would see it more as a question of jealousy?

I'd like to but I don't think so.

I was taken by surprise by the MC when he said that he wanted more than just fuck buddy and also that "rebound guy" thing.

I fully agree with your last sentence. In the other, I see it differently, from the first moment in Sage's route, if we choose the answers that subtract RP, we see that the MC wants something serious (and subtract RP because Sage was the one who did not want).
First example, if you choose that "sex can be the beginning of something more". Second when you stay in the HOT mansion, during breakfast.... There is evidence, what doesn't fit is being fuckbuddy and not wanting to be the rebound guy.

I'd like to but I don't think so.

If he didn't have such a strong reaction to it I would agree. It's the thing, Alcohol is a light drug, if consumed to the point of passing out and poisoning, well not so much.

Everytime she drugs him, he essentially becomes this stoned guy who can't stay on his feet or even awake, I would say that is pretty serious. But than again I am a teetotaler (not literally).

 

[sorco2003]

I'd like to but I don't think so.

Not that I directly see it as a jealousy issue, but it is a possibility that crossed my mind when the scene happened.... But it should be clarified that this idea would only apply if you are following Quinn's route, in the other routes it would not make any sense.
It would be interesting, but at the end of the day I think the same thing you wrote, to get Maya out of the way somehow.

I don't think she intentionally tries to get him passed out, it's just he has much lower tolerance. after all, smoking on the roof was his first time so he doesn't have a lot of experience with these things

Yeah Quinn asking for the video, I didn't like it at all and it just reminded me of the shit I hate about the character. M&J story has enough going on to add blackmail or something like that.

I think there is also the distant possibility (but possibility at last) that Quinn would have wanted to see the evidence to make sure that the list was not completed with the MC.... Yes, it's a very vanilla theory for a rather hardcore character, but who's to say that Quinn's cool side doesn't exist?

I highly doubt that it was for that reason since the same thing happens regardless of whether you are in Quinn's path or not and blackmail sounds more plausible for the type of person she is. It sounded to me that she wanted to have leverage on M&J.

 

[buddyhard]

Judging from that file path, I'm guessing you're trying to use the full-version patch on a compressed version, which won't work.

Instead you'd need to look for a . If that doesn't work either, then you'll have to download the whole 0.7.2 compressed version.

Thnx for the help! gonna try that!

 

[felicemastronzo]

after reading the whole official walkthrough i declare that the fact that Sage asks Mc to start a relationship with her, regardless of anything that happened before, is a crazy shit!!! really a choice that i don't agree with... for the series of how much our game choices count....

secondly i noticed that they are distributed an embarrassing amount of RP but only for some LIs...

Bella 0
Jill +1
Josy +14
Maya +11
Sage +5

First of all, if you still got the original zip files, try unzipping them with The Unarchiver instead of the default archive utility. Some people have reported The Unarchiver leaves the execute permissions intact.

You also can set the execute permissions in Terminal. If you tried this before and it didn't work, you might have made a syntax error, but without seeing the output of Terminal, I have no way to tell what went wrong.
Type chmod -R a+x and then drag the BaDik app in the Terminal window. Terminal will fill out the path. Mind there should be a space between the x and said path. Hit enter. Terminal should return to the prompt, unless it encountered an error.

As usual, if you start messing with permissions, better make a duplicate of the app first, or be sure your backup is up to date.

I had tried unzipping with Unarchiver and patching the game again successfully (by replacing the "contents" folder) but I have the same problem when I try to run the game.

I tried to set the permissions in Terminal as well following your instructions step by step, when I hit enter I have no output or message from Terminal

Air-de-Rngel:~ rng3l$ chmod -R a+x /Users/rng3l/Downloads/BeingADIK–v0.7.1-macOS/BeingADIK.app
Air-de-Rngel:~ rng3l$

And ofc I keep having the same original issue when I try to run the game. Maybe I messed it up by patching the game thrice? Anyway Im not getting any error message from Terminal or from the system when I try to run the Game (other than the usual "you are not authorized to blablah...")

in Josy case I understand, she lacks behind Maya in RP points
You get +Rp with Jill, if you "look Closer" a second Time, which is Dik move. .
I don't like this system, never did, and I don't think anyone actually truly understand it, aside from DPC

and I agree, on the Sage part, But I already explained my dislike for that situation

the one about RP was just a curiosity, not a criticism.

and as you also say, that Josy can receive so many is understandable, she can have up to 3 dedicated sex scenes (which I think is a record).

but that Maya who, with Bella, is the one who has less space has almost the same RP... while Jill, who is also very present, closes with only one RP is very anomalous

that in the end the RP will end up being essential only for the trouple?
