VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [DrPinkCake]

[Cndyrvr4lf]

Yeah depends on if your talking about
A an actual physical addiction that results in withdrawals if you stop taking it
B a substance that seems to make all your problems go away

I agree with lemonfreak about a physical addiction. However, lots of people become mentally addicted to a substance because it seems to offer a "magical" solution to all their problems, at least till they sober up which means time to get high again.

Anything in moderation is ok (arguably) however a lot of people don't have enough willpower to use moderation.

I still think the majority of this is down to Tommy and Riona remember there was a scene between Quinn and Heather when Heather was complaining about Tommy taking her drugs so there is that as well as Tommy even asking Rusty if he had anything. The thing is if Quinn was using more drugs then Tommy or Riona would have brought that up perhaps something along the lines you wouldn't have this problem if you weren't overusing Riona especially as she seems the closer to Quinn.

Quinn seems to be the main supplier, so I think it would be much easier for her to skim some drugs for herself without Tommy or Riona noticing than it would be for them to take them from her. And I could totally see Quinn being worried about other people freeloading because she knows she's doing that herself.

Again, there's no proof of anything, but it fits a coherent pattern.

Well, the Melanie and Sarah issue you could be onto something with that they are clearly up to something with the whole Chad and Sage stuff so I wouldn't count them out of anything I'm thinking they want control of it all the Chad issue to take out Sage and the money issue to take out Quinn could it be that these two have been plotting behind both Sage and Quinn's back all this time?

Yeah, Melanie and Sarah are the new suspects for everything since we definitely know they have an agenda but have no idea what that agenda is. They're like the blank scrabble tile of conspiracy theories!

 

[xsssssssss]

So all in all, we need to save Quinn, and cut her off from her supplier (Since we don't know who it is, let's give a codename: Vinny!)

If her supplier is the one causing problems for her i'd be very much up for helping her sorting them out for her.
I don't necessarily think there needs to be some 'drugs is bad' moral intervention though

The thing is if she is the one taking extra doses then she is screwing herself over surely she is smarter than that? And is well aware of any consequences of not getting all the money back in time. I just don't know for me the whole drug angle has just felt off.

 

[Kz87]

But paying for services are separate decisions. You can choose to party hard and not buy any lap dances.

Also, consider the interaction with Lily in Chapter 5. Asking for a personal stripper or making out are minor DIK choices. But paying Lily for a blowjob has no effect on anything. Sure, she'll agree to give you the blowjob for free if you're CHICK enough, but you need to ask her for the freebie. If you just fork over the money, that's a neutral act for some reason. So in this case, paying for sex is *less* egregious than partying.

Confused yet?

If you choose to party hard it already implicates that you are agree to all its benefits aka sexual services. Making affinity choices with each stripper would be too complicated for game purposes.

As of Lily's case in episode 5, I agree, there shouldn't be a choice to pay her in a Chick route(or make it Dik move), only willingness from Lily's side.

I still think the majority of this is down to Tommy and Riona remember there was a scene between Quinn and Heather when Heather was complaining about Tommy taking her drugs so there is that as well as Tommy even asking Rusty if he had anything.

So does Heather have a cool head on her shoulders or not? I thought she is but she has her own stash.

Tommy is an addict through and through. Here's an idea, Vinny supplies to Tommy, but dropped out / kicked out because Tommy got him into trouble, others might / might not know about it and it will rise its ugly head in the coming episodes.

 

[Darkmetal]

Let's say in an RPG you returned some farmer's lost sheep gaining 100xp and leveling up. Your hit points increases by 50, you get a skill point which you put into "shield bash" and one good/paragon/light side point.

Waitaminute! What TF does returning sheep have to do with HP or shield bash? You didn't even lift the shield once on this quest let alone bash anyone. Shouldn't you be allowed to only increase 'walking' or 'divination' or something? And why do villagers immediately treat you more like a hero and give you 2% better prices? None of them witnessed you returning the sheep, they don't know about the "good" point you earned.

This makes no sense. Come to think of it, why is a point of exp from clearing a bandit cave worth the same as a point of exp from picking someone's pocket? The "experience" gained from them should be completely different. And why TF did we only get 50xp for delivering the letter for the King? Crossed the entire effing map for that compared to the 10 steps taken to find the sheep for which we got 100xp. What's with the disparity? The system is completely arbitrary - it's crazier than DPC's affinity system!

People just accept it because it's a familiar/known convention. Affinity/Status is just new/unique to this game.

Purpose of choice with Steve is not just single action, but the way to shape MC what kind of person he is. Is he generous no matter who in front of him, even an asshole like Steve.

There it is. Steve is irrelevant, whether anyone sees it is irrelevant. What the game system is trying to capture is not that single action in isolation - it may as well be Rich needing a heimlich or Anthony stuck in bear pit, same diff. It is trying to capture in numerical form a measure of your character. Are you the type that will help anyone or will you only help your friends/if there's something in it for you/if there is anyone to see you to give you credit.

The system is imperfect, sometimes measures seemingly odd things at odd times and take some short cuts, sure, but so does every game system. (e.g. How do you manufacture a siege tank with 100 minerals and 50 vespene gas, nevermind the crew. How TF can eating a chicken heal your wounds for 2 HP immediately - the only person for which that should work is Sandor "The Hound" Clegane.)

I explained in an earlier post how I interpret Affinity/Status. DPC's system works fine for me that way.

 

[AvatarStormBringer]

How do you manufacture a siege tank with 100 minerals and 50 vespene gas, nevermind the crew.

It's a 3rd tier unit, you sure it's that cheap?

 

[AvatarStormBringer]

What portion of the money from Quinn's restaurant goes to him or how many free samples he gets I don't know, but I would be surprised if Quinn was paying girls tuition upfront each semester.

If he's getting his free samples from Quinn, and what he told Jade is true and the 3 girls are limited to the restaurant.. that means Riona, Melanie and Sarah. I doubt Quinn would throw herself in as a free sample and am not sure if Arieth and Elena are on the menu. Definitely leaving Heather out of the equation since she had only seen Tommy's dick.

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

I still don't get that I know Riona is a close friend and everything but why is Quinn letting her use up most of the drugs without paying for it?

She isn't that was just a lie on Quinn's part to Tommy. Riona is a lot more worried about coming up short than Quinn so it wouldn't make sense for her to just use all the product. Someone's been stealing from them or Quinn hasn't been selling enough which is why Quinn's trying to sell to the preps since she seemingly lost some DIK's as customers and the Jocks as well so she needs buyers. She just lied to Tommy to try to calm him if that's the right word I'm looking for to assure him that's it'll be alright.

 

[IkarusWestwood]

The thing is if she is the one taking extra doses then she is screwing herself over surely she is smarter than that?

Maybe it’s some of those explanations that we’ll have to accept because it’s the best we’ll have of a VN.

So what do you guys think the cliffhanger ending for episode 8 (end of season 2) will be?

- At his birthday party, surrounded by his father and LIs, MC opens the envelope from his mother. He gets a shocked look on his face, says "No way!" and smash cut to black.

- At his birthday party, surrounded by his father and LIs, the cops bust in and arrest the MC and Sage, having been framed by Quinn as the masterminds of the drug ring.

- At his birthday party, surrounded by his LIs, MC opens the front door to find Zoe standing there, wanting to resume their relationship.

- Same as above, but Zoe has MC's two year old son with her.

- Sage and Rusty are framed for various crimes and stripped of their presidencies, leaving the DIKs/HOTs under the control of Tommy/Quinn.

- Mona goes to a shadowy figure and tells him/her that she wants out of the prostitution/drug ring. Mona is murdered.

- Riona goes to Quinn and tells her that weed does nothing for her anymore. Quinn gives her a fix of heroin, but Riona overdoses and dies.

- Maya has a nasty argument with her father while Josy and MC are alone together, and attempts suicide.

- Josy and Maya have a nasty argument, and Josy attempts suicide.

- Isabella trusts MC enough to show him what's in the locked room. MC says "No way!" and smash cut to black.

- Isabella trusts MC enough to him what's in the locked room: a BDSM sex dungeon. The episode ends with MC strapped to a sex sawhorse while Bella plows his ass with a strap-on dildo. MC says that if you love someone enough, you'll do anything for them.

- MC fucks Jill, and Jill somehow finds out that MC was responsible for breaking into her room.

- There is no cliffhanger. Season 2 ends with repairs to the DIK house being completed and MC going home for the holidays. "Man, what a crazy semester! I wonder what will happen after Christmas break!"

The DIK mansion gets burned down and everyone either dies or standing outside naked and gaping at the burning mansion.

Well, dating Tommy would be her first flaw not much lower you can go from there.

If Vinny is the supplier then I'd agree that he is out because of the drugs and I'm thinking Rusty wasn't keen on the idea of that either so Vinny's had to go.
