During the HOTs party, when you have the option to rat on Tommy, you get DIK points for telling Heather, but lose them if you keep your mouth shut. Is it just me or does that seem a little backwards?

Wouldn't telling the truth feel more in line with a CHICK? I get that you're betraying Tommy, and that it isn't your business, but keeping his secret about being plus three seems more DIK-ish. Lying to Heather means Tommy can continue to bang other chicks with impunity, and you're putting family first. Idk, feels a little off. Maybe there shouldn't have been any status points tied to the choice, just the variable.

I wonder if spilling the beans, in addition to spilling your milk on Heather, will have any consequence in Episode 11 other than Tommy being extra pissed.

The most important part is Tommy must know MC is the one who told Heather, is there anyone besides Heather who knows that MC ratted him out? If not, then it wouldn't have any consequence; Heather won't betray MC like that; her relationship with Tommy also reached the end; she has had enough of his bullshit.

I only remember MC had a conservation with Nick but can't tell Nick know MC ratted Tommy :unsure:

At first, I felt the same but when I was playing through ep 10 and got to the yoga scene with Heather I thought perhaps it was because the action can be construed as completely selfish and not altruistic as I initially believed. I don't remember the scene by heart but I recall Fuckface's words to Heather seeming like he didn't care about the consequences. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm also recalling before the HOTs party it's implied pretty heavily that Tommy doesn't appreciate any of his DIK brothers tattling on him to Heather when it's made known that Nick told her about his cheating once before.

Maybe you can trust Heather to not reveal it was you (and Nick), but can't be sure. And Tommy doesn't like it if someone rats on him (even though he got a threesome out if it), but this fucker can't even respect the DIK secret code. No doubt he'd throw a bitch fit if someone broke it against him.

The only things that Tommy likes are pussies and drugs if you ask me, he would end MC life if he found out. Tommy the devil is not only the nickname :devilish:

I could say that Divine Quinn reads the philosophers, Socrates, Plato, Nietzsche and Machiavelli in the original, and learned from them. :cautious:
But that's not true. :cautious:
In fact, they were all learning from the Divine Quinn. :cautious::WeSmart:
Her Divine Wisdom is beyond time and space. :oops:o_O:love:

Keeping Tommy's secret is clearly a CHICK choice. This choice is a representation of trust. Tommy told MC about having sex with Tania without a second thought, showing great trust in MC and all the DIKs present at the time.

When Heather asks MC about him possibly knowing something, what does MC immediately think? "(Family comes first... right?)" Heather is not MC's family, Tommy is.

Telling Heather about Tommy's secret shows that MC is untrustworthy and that he is a terrible DIK brother, since he doesn't follow their code.

If Heather were someone close to MC, we might look at this dilemma differently, but up until this point in the game Heather has been nothing but arrogant and dismissive towards MC.

That's where you get to these tougher decisions, and I love them. It's not black and white with what the good answer is, as it depends on perspective.

Sure it's the "bro code" to lie for him. But lying is wrong. So honesty would lean towards the Chick side, you would think. But what if you know your lie is actively hurting someone, whether they are nice to you or not. The Chick route, is generally nice/good, but either way someone is being hurt.
  • By lying, you are enabling Tommy's actions and behavior to further hurt Heather. That's kind of a Dik move.
  • By treating Heather nicely and honestly, even if she's rude/mean. That's more of a Chick move.
I guess it really boils down to what perspective you take between the two of them. I haven't done any Dik playthroughs recently, but if you are truthful she really starts to open up and come around to the MC. I don't recall any fallout from Tommy either... yet. It can't readily be pinned on MC, as he doesn't even go out of his way to try and hide what he does.

My best guess is that you didn't delete the persistent file in the automatic backup folder for Ren'Py games.

If you are on Windows, that folder is:

C:\Users\YourUserNameHere\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\YourGameNameHere-weirdNumberHere

You have to delete also this folder to do a properly clean install.

If you don't, you will see your old saves even if they are no more in your "game\saves" folder, and most of all, your old persistent file will still be effective. If something was corrupted in it, that's going to cause you problems.

Well I was still having that problem but I figured out what the problem really was.

Turns out the Steam version doesn't have Season 3 out yet. That's why I kept getting those errors.

MC isn't doing Heather any harm. In EP.10, when John Boy wanted to meddle in Tommy and Heather's relationship, do you remember what MC (who kept Tommy's secret) said?

JB "What do you think I should do?"
MC "If I were you, I'd probably stay out of it. But that's me."
MC "Tommy's and Heather's relationship isn't a normal one. I'd let them sort their issues out without getting involved."
MC "I wouldn't make too big of a deal out of this."
JB "Maybe you're right..."
JB "I wasn't sure who to talk to about this. Since Elena is Heather's friend, it didn't feel good to mention this to her."
MC "I get you."
JB "Thanks for easing my mind, dude. It's good to have people you can trust with these things."

I agree. Many CHICK choices regarding the DIKs are about loyalty and trust (If you play as a full Massive DIK you get many negative points with the DIKs and specially with Derek). Does Tommy respect the DIK code? No. Does he deserves Heather breaks with him? Yes. Are you a good DIK member if you snitch on Tommy? No. Did my massive DIK feel guilty after Heather blew him? NO :devilish::devilish::devilish:

Absolutely! Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying being honest is the Chick route, just that it can be considered a more Chick move depending on the side you look from.

Same with other great games like The Witcher, Dragon Age Origins, and others.. there's no good and bad, as a "good" decision could actually become bad, or less good. The "goodness" of decisions you make in those vary drastically based on what perspective you take.

Somehow I think some of HOT's girls are more family than Tommy, that's why I will always choose to tell Heather, she deserves better. And imo the 3some Tommy told DIK is just a show-off, dude just can't wait to show how cool he is :ROFLMAO:

I get you. Some people didn't realize it, but... This choice isn't about the MC being selfless and telling Heather the truth, it's about the MC having the opportunity to get on Heather's good side and consequently have sex with her.

Don't you think it's funny that the "Heather path" is only opened if you tell Tommy's secret? This is the DPC telling you to your face that you, like Nick, broke the DIK code and betrayed a frat brother in exchange for pussy.

The right thing to do will still be the right thing to do, even if no one else does it. It doesn't matter if Nick or Tommy don't respect the DIK code, be the bigger man and keep Tommy's secret. :cool:(y)

I hope the end of 2024 is treating you well. Amidst work, I've had a couple of nice days off celebrating Christmas.

This week, I added music to all remaining scenes and will have to analyze if more is needed in some areas. At the moment, 42 new songs have been added to episode 11. Sound effects still need more work, but not a lot.

I added the lewd events of episode 11 to the Stats app and will ensure that it works while playing.

I've played through the episode three times this week. I played Others, Josy & Maya, and Sage branches and noted what to fix. I'm encountering fewer issues with every playthrough and making good progress with the polishing.

Josy & Maya's branch needs some more work in one area in particular, but it feels good other than that. I have only played one variation of the Others branch so far, and it also felt good. I will have to play through more variations to get a different feel for it later. I finished playing Sage's branch today, and I need to play more variations of this branch as well.

To take a break from playing the episode, I'm parsing the dialogue to tighten and correct it. I've parsed about 100 pages of a 400-page Word document and will continue until I finish before I start playing the episode again.

Next week, I will play through Isabella's branch and likely revisit Others and Sage branches with new variations.

All my systems work on animations, except when I must re-render static renders to fix something. Four different lewd scenes are rendering across the PCs, and the render speed varies from scene to scene. Some of the animations rendered this week were longer than others, ranging from 4 to 15 seconds. At this time, it's tricky to predict how many animations will be rendered weekly.

55 animations remain in the queue; unless I miscounted, there should be 392 animations in total for episode 11.

Have a great end to 2024, and I'll see you in 2025.

Thank you for being so supportive during this challenging year.

Love

Dr PinkCake
