Ren'Py Completed Dreaming of Dana [v0.099] [PTOLEMY]

[Freki]

I do have to step back from discussions sometimes, not because i'm upset but in the case of some people we're just not going to get along and there is no point talking further.

I don't mind disagreement, I love disagreement and I love it when people prove me wrong on things. Never to old to learn something new and I can't know everything.

What I don't like so much are people that label others because they happen to live differently or enjoy things differently. I don't have the time of day for them.

I agree with you @Gomly1980 and that's what i took issue with it's not people not liking characters but making it feel like it's bad to like something they didn't like.

[Dilettante]

it's just a question of intention and action as well as what words are used and how they are used. I know men and women that gladly would accept that word describing them and they'd laugh it off if it was used in a good hearted way, but the minute it was used to degrade them they'd do what it takes to remove that person from their presence.

I'm not use it to degrade anybody, like i said, i use it in "friendly way". I very like Maria, and i'm not saying she's bad in this exact situation.

lets talk about the game, talk about what you don't like but lets not try to make others hate a character they love by trying to make it into something it's not.

I just calling character for who she is. Like it or not. You can use whatever words you prefer. Not like i care much.

Ok, my question is WTF do you have to use the term "slut" and "whore" AT ALL to describe people who like, and have, sex? It reeks of Puritianical superiority. Who really GAS if people like sex and have it a lot? Or dislike it and don't do it any?

Simply *using* the derogatory terms "whore" and "slut" demean the basic idea of people doing whatever they want and having fun while doing it and being happy. Who cares what they do, their 'partners' are ok with it, so let's leave all your prejudices and biases outside the thread, how's that? Frankly speaking, when I see someone use the term "whore" or "slut" shows a petty mentality, and someone who is basically jealous that someone else is out having fun and thery are not.

I don't think whore and slut are "sexist and derogatory" words. That's why i use them in the first place. I'm not use it to insult somebody here. Like i said before, Maria isn't just "like sex". She's professional nymphomaniac. I think that's a fact. You can call me "puritanical" or whatever, but i'm not seeing Maria and other women like her as "normal human who having fun", and don't think ever will.

And your last words about jealousy is just very funny. Is like everyone who hates drug addicts is just jealous of them, and how much fun they have. Or any other degenerate, with wild parties and stuff like that. I know it's not good reference. But sex in this case is sorta like mania and addiction. Nymphomania. Is it really that good? Let's look at last situation, when "Tyrone" "raped" Maria and used her like a cum toilet. And i bet he's not the only one. She's kinda like victim of her addiction in this case. She's willing to sleep with zillion of men, don't really care about their personalities and what they do to her.

But on topic, yeah I have never approved of super judgemental people because it shows a weak character. If people are happy and content with who they are they really shouldn't care what other people do or say, as long as it doesn't impact them individually/personally. "Labelling" others shows an inability to accept people for who they are and instead illustrates when others try to force some person or behavior into a pre-defined pattern so they think they can relate to it easier. (Square peg in a round hole, and all that)

So i need to accept and applaud to any kind of degenerates now? Any other kind of maniacs? They all live "happy and content with who they are", and i need to accept it as "normal"? I don't think i heard something so crazy before. I still believe there is a "norm" in this wild life of ours. And yes, it is impacting me and every other human on daily basis. I know some people don't care about what happens in world, or even in their own house or neighborhood. But i believe it is natural to judge other people and not accepting every stranger "just because".

 

[Rosa Melano]

so ..what i do i have to do any walk through ?

Keep playing the game. This is not a super complex game but it does have a bit of a grind...

1. Meet various women, talk to said women in a polite way to get their affection/interest up.
2. Once interest & sexual aspects are up high enough you get the option to go on dates with them.
3. You MUST go on the FIRST DATE solo with the woman in question.
4. Once you go at least once with the woman solo you can invite Dana along (assuming the affection/attraction level is high enough, see #1.)
5. I believe all of the solo dates have a second variation if you go out with them without Dana a second time (may be random).
6. Once you get ALL THREE of the women in dates with Dana along (Jessica & Dana date is triggered last) you will get the option to go away with Dana on a weekend.
7. Push her a bit on the weekend get-away to see a few more scenes, but I believe you get the same end result as long as you're not an ass.
8. Once you have the first weekend getaway with Dana, there is (as of now) a second date scene with Dana and all the women for the second date option.

Thanks

I never thought i would read the word "degenerate" in a pejorative meaning in an adult forum. XD
I`m not into judging people, even less judging a porn game characters but... how what people say about Maria says a lot about them.

Maria who fucks for fun is a whore and a degenerate.
Andrea who agrees to fuck her boss even before she meets him is not a whore.
Dana who`s fucking every girl in the city (and some girl from her uncle`s town, not to mention John the Bastard, if Chris is OK) along with her brother, and is having an incest, is not a degenerate.
lol
The point is that people who call Maria a bitch don`t like her being independent. MC is not "the special one" to Maria, that`s the real "problem", i think.

You have every right to be offended if someone slanders you by spreading lies about you not if he told the truth about you and you did not like it.If you are offended/afraid/ashamed from being called something because of your actions don't do those actions.And don't give me today's view PC bulshit a prostitute does sex for money and this does not necessarily mean she is a whore if she does it out of necessity or lack of opportunity/choice like Mila in game(she doesn't want that life but was forced into it) she is not a whore.A whore is a person who fucks around for fun and is incapable of settling down maintaining a monogamous relationship and remaining loyal to one person like Maria or John.And whore is not a sexist term it can be applied to both men and women ore have you never heard of the term man whore.

Its the same as asking WTF do we have to use the term drug addict for someone addicted to drugs.

 

[muttdoggy]

Hey! Let's move on from labels and terms and whatever they mean. Let's instead discuss what Ptolemy's got planned for us next! Any fun surprises?

 

[Gomly1980]

I don't know about surprises but I am wondering when they will help Mila out.

She's asked nicely, MC agreed, told Dana and she agreed and then they buggered off on holiday with Andrea.

Poor lass asks for help and then gets forgotten.

 

[Jaime Lannister]

Anyone have the change log for 0.057?

 

[Crusoe]

Anyone have the change log for 0.057?

Sorry, no mean to be rude, but do you mind changing your signature?
You know, signatures are one of the ways we identify other members and another member has already this signature and its a little confusing. So can you change it please?

And about your question, its been asked and answered more than a couple of times i think, but here it goes again:
Basketball
Interview.
And two miniscenes which depend on your choices during basketball match.

 

[kqmaverick]

I just tried playing .057 (i never got a chance to do 0.56 so 0.55 was the last i finished). I had a save from the end of the second weekend getaway and i figured i would use that to get into the new content. The problem is as soon as the weekend ends the game ends say that there is no more content. Do i need to use an older save or is something else wrong?

 

[Bip]

@kqmaverick The getaway is the end, for instance. The content that Ptolemy added after is chronologically before.
Then yes, you have to use an older save (before asking Dana for the week-end) or you can use the console (shift O) for a back to the futur:

then you need to ask a great many people to change their signature gif because I know many have the one with the girl cosplaying harley and pulling her shirt up and then laughing. this one is moving faster and the loop is longer than the other one.

@Ciri Thug the new stuff as @Crusoe said is the interview scene, playing basketball and then two scenes depending how you acted during the basketball game. or if you chose to invite the member of dana's "Geek Squad" home.

i would prefer instead of bring the waitress to take the place of andrea give the job to mila and save her from the father

 

[Gomly1980]

That thought didn't occur to me, I really like that idea.

 

[CobraSGT]

yeah right? the waitress already have a job in a good place and live with her boyfriend, mila need it more
