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

[Geralt From Rivia]

Bullshit. MC tells everything you need to know about Zoey when she talks about her to Bella in that flashback story.

The Interlude is TOTALLY pointless.

The interlude wasn't so bad.
CHANGE MY MIND.

 

[Crusader of Romance]

Anyone else hope this game ends with Season 3? I feel like there isn't really that much left to explore (and Zoey coming back already seems like a way to add some new drama and drag this out, it wasn't needed and not forshadowed).

This is probably the best game on this site but I would prefer DPC moving on to develop a new game after S3.

Actually, I fully expected Zoey to return from the moment we were introduced to her. I think DPC have planned most of this only it got dragged out more than he had originally planned.
The question is, how will he continue to cater to the lewd players and keep the game going for the story players? I think the question if season 3 becomes the last or not depends on how well season 3 is received by the players.

 

[Crusader of Romance]

I think that many of the Pink Rose Girls will make their last appearance in EP9, or even become less important. The new Managed MiniGame that DPC is integrating into the game should become a permanent source of revenue for the DIKs.

Some of them, maybe. I feel Brandi already has. I think he will get rid of many side-girls in season 3.
I agree about the mini-game.

I can very well imagine Quinn's Restaurnat being dissolved as it is about to be unveiled. Finally, Derek has put out feelers. He will be running the new restaurant, except it will be the Moose Lounge, and Derek will be smarter about it than Quinn. Derek will only charge a middleman commission and most of the money will stay with the girls.

The only reason Quinn's Restaurant is there is because it's part of the main storyline. I feel he used it too little in the game already, most likely because it's hard to make the MC have a moral objection to something he's using.
But I don't think Derek will start a new one.

Guess why Lily is in college? Someone needs to teach the new horny coeds what a stripper (gogo girls) needs to know. And these new strippers (gogo girls) are much cheaper than the girls from the Pink Rose.

I actually thought she was an undercover cop trying to get to the drug ring leader but that theory kind of got shot down in one of the last episodes when we found out she indeed was buying for the girls at the Pink Rose.

 

[Crusader of Romance]

Season 3 will not be the last, because DPC itself has already written, so that BaDIK is in the half-time. Ergo 8+8=16 which means 4 seasons.

I know but it also depends on him keeping his patreons. But I think he will make season 3 work.

What if DPC plans from EP9 on that every upcoming EP from EP10 on will have two branches? A DIK and a CHICK branch and NEUTRAL serves as the connection of the DIK/CHICK affinity.

That could very well be the case. He's already locking our affinity so that could be the plan. That would solve some problems.

It's gotta be more than just they are friends with Chad. Sage is his girlfriend and she doesn't know he's gay, why would other random friends know?

It revolves more around Melanie than Sarah.

Melanie asks if Sarah has her back if things go south. Sarah also consoles Melanie when she gets upset when Chad breaks up with Sage.

My guess is Melanie is Troy's sister. She knows about the situation with the two guys and she wants what's best for everyone.

Even if breaking up with Sage is the right thing, it still hurts the girls since they are friends with Sage, Troy and Chad.

Anyway, that's my take.

Share your thoughts

from what we see in the story it is Chad and Melanie who are connected, Chad is hiding in Melanie's room during the HOTs' party, and earlier the glances between them are so insistent that we think it was Melanie who was Chad's lover.

there is only one reason to think that instead the connection is between Melanie and Troy (other than a very vague resemblance... ) is that this would justify the delay in Melanie's intervention, which at that point would have had reason to intervene only after learning that Chad was with Troy, otherwise what would have been the point of waiting? (Sage and Chad's relationship is a long one, a courtship that has been going on since they were freshmen.)

if I had to play two cents, I would say that Melanie was the "beard" (cover) for one of them in their high school days.

I'm trying to play this but there's some problems, all related somehow to android:
First problem: Can't play episode 8 in an android device, it crashes without leaving any trace, and it doesn't matter if i'm using the apk/compressed game/that 10+gb data.
Second problem: You can't continue any of the main routes. For example, if i'm trying to get jill route i won't get her first lewd scene (the shower scene) and even if i follow everything that's mentioned in the official guide she will reject the MC. Similar stuff happened when you're trying to get Isabelle path, do everything that's necessary but she will not accept the MC when she's supposed to be with him (Late episode 7).

There is no official Android version, it is a modded fan version. As DPC hates mods, he put some mines in the code, stopping the game without aby notice (this is what you described). To get further you have to play a unmodded PC version.

Btw How to find Riona's Stalker (1. Teleport to corridor 3 and enter the first door to to your right then in 2. You have go to the dance room there are only 6 People Jabob and 5 other people whom to click or where to click)

There is already an answering post, Darkdevil66 gave it here (it was before you postet the question again). Maybe you should read the post as it is like for kids (with pictures ).

Well... partially it is true... there is no official android release ( why would there be ??? and be4 anyone suggests it... there won't be any ) but that's not the real reason behind his failure... should learn how to evade these situations on his own... if not then it is unavoidable that at some point(s) the game will crash... sigh... noodles and their cheaters paradise mindset

Well i'm not playing with mods or anything like that, 100% vanilla... almost every game that's in this website i play it with Joiplay, somehow it works and sometimes it can't even pass the main menu. So... I guess i have to play it in my PC.

EP8 reward
View attachment 1890004

there was another photo he used before this one, which was of Bella washing a car if I'm not mistaken, do you have that too?

one more thing this EP8 Reward is from Pack Quest? I need 08 images to complete this achievement...

 

[Sharku]

I think DPC has it well-covered at this point with the number and types of girls offered. A healthy mix in both main girls [...]

4 out of 5 main girls are on chick path, only Sage is on dik path. That seems quite unbalanced.

Besides, there is the same thing with Jill who refers to Tomb Raider II and Tomb Raider Underworld . x)

Try DarkAssassin Android Port(He has his own blog there you will find Episode 8)
and you need high processor phone
I only played Sage Path I don't have any problems(Don't know about Jill or Isabella Path)
You can follow Fan Walkthrough(Official is tricky)

You forget that it's not just Melanie's room, it's Sarah's room too. Also, Chad is not alone with Melanie, Alex is there too and Chad sleeps on Alex's couch until he is assigned a dorm room.

So you could guess that Melanie could be Alex's girlfriend or sister, because Sarah doesn't mind the familiar threesome until she learns that the MC is asking about Chad.

You're also partially right about the beard. Except that Melanie is not the beard for Chad. Chad didn't need a beard because he had Sage. That leaves Troy. Of course, it's possible that Melanie was the beard for Troy, but I still think it's unlikely. And why? Troy needed a beard and so did Maya.

I go back to my old finger theory. Chad says in EP2 that he will wet both his fingers and stick them in. Chad will wet them for Troy. But in EP8 Maya asks the MC if she has two fingers in her or just one. Remember EP2 and what happened just before the MC recorded Chad on his cell phone. The MC was talking to Maya, then Maya's cell phone rang and she had to leave real quick. Want to know where she went? Maya's room is number 55 and Troy's room is number 66, only 11 rooms away. In the process, Maya overheard Chad and Troy's conversation. That's why Josy advises the MC in EP8 to keep his hands off.

No, Melanie put her panties in Chad's gym bag and feels guilty for not telling Sage. Her look at Chad in EP6 can also mean that Chad finally had the courage to break up with Sage.

I leave all the theories to you

But Chad is in the room with Melanie, while Sara is elsewhere.
Alex being a Jocks it is not strange that he is with Chad, but that Melanie of all people is there is noticeable

I get it, but it still seems like backwards reasoning to me.

if there is an official channel for reporting actual bugs in the game, with controlled access, and it gets clogged up with people playing with a mod so badly that it deserves a countermove, I'd say there's a major communication problem

but if the game instead of crashing would display a huge "idiot, stop using MODs!!!" sign wouldn't the whole thing be a moment more productive? at that point they wouldn't go asking for anything., maybe they would play without Mods and bring in useful reports in case

normally the integrity seals on the devices are clearly visible, often reported, they are not hidden intentionally, because for you to go and bring a tampered device is a waste of time anyway, useless for both parties

but you want to put the taste of personally kicking someone out of your treehouse?

The most common people that want support are the people that doesnt read, doesnt think, and just expect everything to work. They are entitled because they dont understand what they are asking, to them tech is magic and it can be fixed magically. The ones with actual bugs and actual good reports are far and few between.

The prefered fix is always rollback to previous version or wipe and reinstall. Because its impossible to ask what the user have done because they dont know nor understand what they have done so they cant make an error report because nothing they have done is wrong from their pov as the software or device just stopped doing what it should be doing in their eyes. But because the users are in fact not reasonable, they say they did nothing, nor do they follow along when you try to help by doing a wipe and reinstall via a call, they say they did but they dont. They lied, because they are entitled. They want you to come and do the magic on their fucked up machine or software.

You say you do get it but think it backwards. From reading you saying that it seems like you're coming from the perspective that most people are reasonable and thus should act reasonable and come with reasonable problems. Because thats who you are right, youre reasonable and think reasonable thoughts and have some basic knowledge on tech. Well youre wrong about other people. People are not reasonable. We should think that people see what is infront of them, that they take a moment to consider what they see. People just dont. They are on autopilot most of the time. Hell people bring their car to the wrong dealership all the time and demand help!

They average ones are the people that say the computer is broken when its the monitor thats unplugged. The monitor IS the computer to them. Thats the average customer coming for help and all they can say is that the computer is not working. Thats the tide of people you need to be able to detect and get rid off. Send reason out the door because there is none when it comes to tech support, this is why I disagree with you.

This is also why widespread and popular software or phoneapps hides 99% of options and settings. Make things as single use as possible, reduce the avalanche of complexity to not get overrun by the masses fucking things up. Hiding away as much as possible in about:config or chrome://about and the like.

Its just too much work for no real gain to listen or help a user. Setting up a trip mine is infinitely more useful in time and energy spent than asking hundreds of questions that leads nowhere. All you need is the one question to see if its self inflicted and then punt the idiot customer off to their self inflicted misery because thats what most of them did do.

To an average person there is no difference between a software and a modded software. "It all magic doing magic stuff and someone else can fix it magically because its no longer working as it was doing. I did nothing to cause it and I did nothing wrong."

No, it is NOT arguable that it is your copy to do what you wish. The rules of his Patreon are explicit - you have a LIMITED license, and it does NOT include spreading it around. You signed up. You paid your money, and agreed to the terms. You don't get to just make up new terms because you want to.

He doesn't bother taking you to court because it is expensive, but also because the terms are clear - fuck around, get banned. It's right there in the agreement. It's not his fault if you didn't bother to read it.

And yes, he LITERALLY, and TECHNICALLY owns his intellectual property. That's how intellectual property works.

Sorry, but there is no grey area here, you just don't want to live up to the terms you agreed to.

i mean, I already admitted that I knowingly broke his rules. I literally made the decision that I didn’t agree with what DPC said was the law down the line. When I signed up as a patron years ago, there was nothing said about “no sharing what you get”. DPC himself was active on this very site for AL and knew the sharing was happening and had no issues with it cause he was the one doing it lol

if he actually cared about “harm“ being done to his business then he would get this whole place shut down, instead of having an official liaison between him and the pirates den to relay information to the people he despises. He would shut down all the fan art that uses the characters he “owns” for purposes he doesn’t approve of. And it’s not a money issue cause he has an enormous amount of it by this point. If I actually broke the law by sharing the pictures that I paid him for, then he should have taken me to court and sued me into oblivion as a message. but he didn’t and he doesnt take legal action against anything here because it’s not so clear cut most of the time, and the fact that DPC personally has involvement here muddies the waters even more and cripples his own argument.

but what he can do, what is within his limited scope of power/authority is to ban me immediately and send me an internet badass message asserting his “dominance“

and in the end idk who wins cause now previews here are harder to get and he makes less money. And I’ve gotten DMs from people saying that they have cancelled their patronage to him based on the message DPC sent me and his treatment of his fans. So even in banishment I’m still a thorn in his side lol
