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

[felicemastronzo]

If MC refuses her advances, he has literally zero interactions with her though. How can you be friends with someone that you don't even interact with? So it's actually FwB.

Episode 7 thing is weird - it's again one of those things in the game that's mentioned only once and never referenced to again. So maybe DPC came up with something, saw that people didn't like it and never referenced it again?

apart, naturally, from the sexual ones, what interactions would be skipped?

you can still have guitar lessons and help with Chad (and some kisses are allowed without becoming FwB)

I kinda want to hear more pep-talk about Zoey, the ex-girlfriend MC since Interlude plays off her side
AchedCroissant What do you say?

I'm still amazed how this game attracts people regardless of age. I thought it was unusual for me, a post-college guy, to be interested in such things. As it turned out, BaDIK is played by people twice my age.

Okay, that's not gold, that's platinum.

I'm actually 42, right now.

Hey, who let the young guys in this thread? Thought it is for old grumpy people like me?
Just kidding, but i'm some years older than you (but still with the 4 on first)

But yeah, was wondering if I wasn't a bit old to play those games and interact here, too, but from some commentaries I read, seems I ain't in the minority either, so there's that.

A well written story with shocking twists, sprinkled with hints of happiness and darkness, believable characters arcs, or at least believable tropes/psyche types, combined with attractive renders, great music selection and, if possible, decent animations.

From an avid, introverted reader who went through a lot of shit in his youth (who doesn't ?), those are often all that's needed to daydream about, especially with a creator like DPC (and I'll add, Drifty, Caribdis, digi.B, and now Nyx for me, Intertwined) who keeps mirroring multiple branching and pathing, all open to interpretation and theorization... I know it may sound warped that I daydream about this, but psychological twists are my thing, I do the same with books and the rare TV shows I watch (always fall asleep in front of the TV though, age I guess hahaha)

Entertainment is everywhere, I just need, like most of the people here I guess, some special type of quality to keep me entertained. It may be an anonymous forum, but at least we're honest about our kinks, same can't be said for the majority of the holier-than-thou, hypocritical people in the society we live in.

Entertainment is that what you like to see or do (speaking of legally things), during time the taste of people has changed. Only cause we are enjoying well written AVNs, we don't start walking out the street only wearing a coat and nothing underneath, flashing in front of everyone. I would say, cause of our experience (we come from times where SJW weren't that tedious), we are able to enjoy an AVN like BaD not only looking at the pics but also making thoughts of the comparison to our past (even when we are from different cultures looking at education systems).

I took a look at some other AVNs but this one is the one i stayed, i also enjoy sometimes running through Los Santos or kicking in Ciris ass when she deserves it, like everybody else i have my preferences and aversions. Making multiple runs through BaD is not only the game but also the microcosm here in this thread, i would say this is a rather important reason why i (and maybe others) doing another run to compare with things written here.

So don't think about your advanced age, think about the time until the next release and everything what will be revealed there (and the new questions of course).

There is a rumor it will be when politicians gets brain and moral.

Don't scare people like that. In this case, we will have to wait a very long time

Asking me to talk about Zoey is like asking an addict to keep using his drug

Yes, but you don't have to buy a new dose when you snort at her.

That's some snowflake MC histrionics. Nothing Jill does make things actually worse for the MC. Quite the opposite in fact.

This is an American school. Anybody with at least two braincells to rub together knows that the best way to get through is to not come to the attention of the people in charge. He went from being a student to being a focal point of higher staff, because a rich girl couldn't take "leave it the fuck alone" for an answer.

Bella's drama is yet to come. An incomprehensible situation with James, we still do not know what happened to him. They quarreled / he left / he died / went missing ... And Bella's mental health remains unclear ...
I think when the truth comes out, our hair will stand on end in horror. There is something frightening in her glassy gaze, it causes goosebumps.

I still put forth the idea that James is completely imaginary. He may have been a real living person at one point, it's plausible, but we have never seen him. Even the flashbacks we've seen are just her imagination, she was relating things from her perspective. He's not there, and the people around her are looking at her like she's mad, the coworkers were treating her like a crazy person, with the gentle gloves on.

I've said it many times - I think the secret is a miscarriage. That explains the locked room (nursery), the weird small mirror in the bathroom with the stool kind of thing and the breakdown of the relationship with James.

I've known women with those mirrors and small steps. It was for shaving their legs, they'd never had kids. Of the people I know who are parents, none of them would put a little mirror down there for kids in the bathroom. Maybe on the back of their bedroom doors.

Also, friends frequently get involved despite being told not to. Because they care for the person who is too dumb and/or prideful to accept help.

Or because they're wrong and busybodies who simply think they know better, rather than respecting a person they claim is their friend.

And nothing negative happened to him because of it but to the contrary, his standing with his peers has improved and his situation got easier. So in the end it's still snowflake histrionics and "everybody knows" that didn't survive verification with reality. At this point holding it against Jill is just being sore about not being able to tell her "i told you so". It certainly doesn't provide any basis to claim she's "made situation worse".

Perhaps, but why do you decide that is the case when it comes to Jill, as opposed to actually caring for MC's wellbeing?

We will simply continue to feel differently on this topic, it's time to move on.

Your theory fits well with Lostanddamned theory. Why? James was absolutely real. The wedding photo that MC saw is absolutely real. They were married. Bella had a miscarriage, which destroyed her nervous system and, along with it, her relationship with James. James could not stand it and something happened to him (let's say he left her). Bella completed a course in chiatric care, but for a long time she was catching the hallucinations that we are shown, according to your theory.
At this moment - yes, she can still hallucinate him periodically. Bella can't let him go. But James is absolutely real, existing somewhere.
We develop theories.

Maybe Isabella and James have a child together, only James took the child with him when he left.
