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

[Walter Victor]

Okay I played this game a lot earlier, around where I think the first season might have ended I'm not sure It was around after the MC is at the DIK Dorms and Isabella helps out. The shortly after the game ends.

What do you mean by 'game ends'. Do you get any end-of-game message, or error message, or does it just disappear?

It might be that you are using a mod. DPC hates them and drops in landmines to 'disappear' games that use them. If you are using a mod, you might check to see if you have the latest version.

Otherwise, you might have overreached the limits of your computer. This game takes up a lot of resources.

hello the Italian translation is not updated to the latest version of the game is it a problem?
Sorry for my english

 

[Winchester Quincy]

I think the feminism in this game is something that DPC does to annoy his wife I think he said it

Hey man, can you upload preview 8 - Lily

I will reply to this, not cause you wrote it, i saw this so often now, but never talked about it...

I for one think most people doesnt really understand this "throuple" and its dynamics.

First of all, everybody needs to understand that Josy and Maya love each other very deep. They dont want to lose each other, no matter what... yeah they have a big issues in the realtionship during the time we are witnessing, but its easy to see that they love each other very much... i mean, Josy came right through the door, the shit hits the fan and just some minutes later, they both are getting together again.

So, if you decide to go just for one girl mainly, and kinda left the other out... the throuple will start cause neither of the girls want to lose the other.

In my case i mainly picked Josy over Maya in most playthroughs, so Maya kinda "rolls" with it to test things out but mainly to stay with Josy. The problems with the HOTs and Mayas Dad are just "hickups" nothing that really can be dangerous for the realtionship between Maya and Josy i think... The only thing that is dangerous for this relationship, is the MC himself. Cause he can make one girl fall deep in love with him, while the other isnt. If youre not in a equal realtionship with them.

So i think... if you "mistread" one of the girls, she choosed to go in the throuple just to not loose the other girl, thats it... in the dilaogue in the dik-house in episode 4, where you can start the throuple, the whole dialogue is about "not losing the other" thats the motivation for Maya or Josy to go in the throuple when not both of them are falling for the MC.

Of course, in the long run this will not work out... its very clear, if you dont want to stay in the throuple and dont treat both of them equaliy, there will be a point where one girl will leave the throuple heartbroken, no doubt about it.

but for now, if you go only for Josy only for example... Maya joins the throuple just to stay close to Josy, maybe with an option to get closer to the MC, but the main reason is just... she doesnt want to lose Josy and the other way around the same.

you may also be right, the theme of being alone is very present, especially in Josy

but the one you describe is a very problematic relationship, because appunta is based more on fear than anything else, the idea that one of the two girls (even more so Maya who has never been in a relationship with a boy) accepts MC just to please the other is the right premise for disaster, and if you imagine how this selfless act closes with a night spent sleeping alone while the other two cuddle with each other is quite cruel

from a game perspective, we don't know how it will go yet, but the game is reminiscent of how the trouple started, so it could also be an already doomed relationship if MC has in fact already expressed his preference before starting

 

[Stareagle lord]

Yes, this is a little strange that all the main girls for a relationship require CHICK or Neutral affinity. With the exception of Sage, she is tolerant of all personality types.
For the pure DIK that I love to play, there is nothing! I think Quinn will probably be added in the third season as the new main girl. Perhaps Lily's path will be added, she also likes DIK personality. For Sarah, it's unlikely, since she's not a relationship type of girl.

Wait wait wait what did I just read?
The name of the game is Being a DIK. And yet you mean that in said game if you are less of a dick personality. Or not a dick at all, You get more women or at the very least women with relationships with MC?

And all the 'main girls' like non-DIK Personality?*

All the main girls are boring and have no personality, better off being a DIK and fucking the better girls.

the story with 3 out of 5 LIs is interrupted if you have the wrong affinity at certain key moments (as long as it is not DIK)

an LI endures an MC DIK even if it comes with some limitations

only one LI apparently likes it

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

I can't help but feel flabbergasted when I see people say "I haven't played X route, nor plan to" why would you willingly choose to not view scenes you've never seen before simply cause you aren't interested in that girl or nor their specific route? The completionist in me can't understand not wanting to view every scene especially where there's significant enough branching. That's just me though. No knock on anyone who only plays through these games once without change.

You're right. I even played in the route of the goblinoid Jill and it seemed to me very boring and sweet, although the most romantic and linear.

LI?
LIs?

Wait so DIK score or not right now for content/Relationships?...
or is it meant to be a mix?:S

on official walks s1, it says this
Josy, Maya, Sage, Jill Isabella is main girls.

and that guy said

all the main girls for a relationship require CHICK or Neutral affinity. With the exception of Sage,

but when I read some parts of walks some parts of DIK give relationship points etc while other parts gives less
And some is anti-dik when I still get more like 'points' and some is for DIK even though it is same girl
and said girl is a main girl... so I am kinda confused
as to how to play to 'get content etc without literally reading whole walks 1-3 seasons before even playing...'

 

[PashafromRussia]

That's why I love Sage.
She doesn't give a fuck that you're a dik and fucked all her friends.
She doesn't give a fuck that you're a fucking weakling ( chick) who cries all the time.
She doesn't give a fuck about you fucking her mother.
She doesn't give a fuck that you fucked Chad

Love Interest, the Main girls

the side girls have no problem with DIKish affinity, they like it

 

[ArmoredCascade]

how many plants in Bella's house do you need to water? i only found 9

 

[Stareagle lord]

Okay, so main girls are relationships and Side girls are not?

And the Love interest is the main girl's and that route is non-dik or rather Chick route and reverse for side girls did I get it right?...

 

[Hahn1900]

you may also be right, the theme of being alone is very present, especially in Josy

but the one you describe is a very problematic relationship, because appunta is based more on fear than anything else, the idea that one of the two girls (even more so Maya who has never been in a relationship with a boy) accepts MC just to please the other is the right premise for disaster, and if you imagine how this selfless act closes with a night spent sleeping alone while the other two cuddle with each other is quite cruel

from a game perspective, we don't know how it will go yet, but the game is reminiscent of how the trouple started, so it could also be an already doomed relationship if MC has in fact already expressed his preference before starting

yeah as i said... i think there will be four different outcomes with this relationship... depending on how you act with the MC, 1 you will end up with Josy alone, Maya heartbroken left aside. 2, the other way around. 3 both girls decide to go their own way together without the MC, and 4 the throuple will work out perfectly.

and its nothing new that people decide to be with someone just to not be alone. And of course, those things never work out in the long run.

 

[felicemastronzo]

the main girls should have a path with an ending, the secondary ones may not, maybe some will have a consolation ending.

the side girls are average strippers or practically prostitutes so they do not have great moral requirements

yeah as i said... i think there will be four different outcomes with this relationship... depending on how you act with the MC, 1 you will end up with Josy alone, Maya heartbroken left aside. 2, the other way around. 3 both girls decide to go their own way together without the MC, and 4 the throuple will work out perfectly.

and its nothing new that people decide to be with someone just to not be alone. And of course, those things never work out in the long run.

these are two different things though
it's one thing to hold out in a relationship that doesn't give you much just so you won't be alone (e.g. Sage), it's another to accept a third person just out of fear that the one you love will leave

in the first case you only lose time in the end, in the second for fear of losing someone you actually increase the probability of losing them...

makes more sense of Josy's reaction in case of rejection that out of fear of eventually being the excluded one she gives up MC to stay with Maya, than the other way around

The name of the game refers to the mc joining the DIK fraternity, not him specifically having a DIK personality.

When it comes down to it, you only have to be a chick or neutral at one point with Maya and Josy (during the library scene where they either accept or reject the mc into their relationship), you can go full DIK after that.

Bella and Sage don't care where you fall on the spectrum, although for some arbitrary reason you can't 69 Bella unless you're a chick.

Jill is the tricky one, numerous times it can be all over with her if you're a DIK. So it's best to chase her as a Chick or Neutral.

Ultimately, since Maya & Josy are a couple, there are really only 4 LI options:

• Jill Requires Chick or Neutral
• M&J Require Chick or Neutral
• Bella doesn't mind
• Sage doesn't mind

Bonus character:

• Quinn requires you to be a DIK

(The above assessment is just off the top of my head, so I could be wrong.)

I can't help but feel flabbergasted when I see people say "I haven't played X route, nor plan to" why would you willingly choose to not view scenes you've never seen before simply cause you aren't interested in that girl or nor their specific route?

You gotta draw the line somewhere.

Just like you don't download every single game on this website, you just choose the ones that appeal to you.

I erased BaDIK and played it through again to completion, finding everything, unlocking everything, until it was almost 100% complete. I just didn't bother unlocking the Madame's stuff. I have 0% interest in seeing her again.

But I have to admit, when I started playing through BaDIK, I tried everything, investigated everything, went through all the options, including the Madame when she first came out (I'm not gonna say there were no regrets).

But there are other games that I play that I just go down one path and that's it.

What blew my mind was when dalli_x came out and said he'd only played the M&J route.

nope... wrong..

There are these main-LI for now... Jill, Josy&Maya, Bella and Sage

The affinity (chick or dik) is not that important to be in a relationship with them. But to start it... for Josy and Maya for example you need to be chick or neutral to start the throuple, if youre in it you can start to be a dik... how long this will work in season 3? Dont know, but for now you can be together with Josy and Maya as a dik, just not from the start.

You can be a dik and get together with Bella too, but need to follow some rules here... be always good to bella, dont fight Troy and dont talk bad about the food in the cafeteria, than you can be with her as a dik.

For Jill i didnt find any way to be a dik an win her over in the end... yeah you can start dating her as a dik, but in the end at epsiode 8 she will diutch you as a dik so far... didnt find another outcome as dik, dont now if there is a way. But neutral works.

Sage is pretty much free of affinity... dik works way better with her, but chick will work too.

Quinn is no main-LI i cant think of a way that she ever will become one... her story is just not made for this. But i get it that so many fans want her to be a LI but she will never be i think. But yeah you can get be with her in "someway" close. works best as dik, neutral works too... as a chick i didnt manage to get close to her.

For the side girls affinity doenst matter really... only your decisions, some of them will influence your affinity though... it depends heavily which sidegilr you want to go for, some need dik status for some lewd scenes, others not.

The "system" is not perfect, but it works pretty good... its obvious that Jill dont want to be with a dik, doesnt make sense to play a dik a go for jill in any way, same goes for Maya and Bella.

But overall, you can go for many girls with different affinity... but if you want to know if you can go for all of them in one playthrough, the answer is simple, no way. Only with cheats, but they will destroy your savegame with the very next update at least.

ah forgot a little something... affinity is by far not the only creterium to be with a girl, your decision along the way matters too in a big way... even as a chick you can lose Jill if you make some wrong turns here and there, same goes for bella... to put it simple, to act like a chick-manwhore you will not have a chance with Jill or Bella in the end. (Bella for one finds out about cathy, and Jill will sense that you have going on much at the side in the end if youre fucking around too much, and to be a chick wont safe you here)

So overall, there are so many different ways and outcomes in this game... didnt saw anyhting like that so far on F95 or anywhere else in a VN.
