Post "Final Status update Episode 11" by "DrPinkCake" from patreon

Fabledname 248 Aprko

that just may come to light in episode 11 or, maybe 12, I have a feeling Lynette was friends with Biancas mom, the other girl looks more like that one girl in college, it's possible that the Royce family bought the house and Lynette's father is somewhere else hating mc and Niels for his daughter's death

Jason P

"Even though i would like to see Jill and Bianca with the MC together i don't think that will happen knowing that Jill is still so new to sex" It's been a while, but I was under the impression that Jill has potentially messed around with Bianca and maybe even Bella (less likely although something left me with that potential impression). She might be more experienced than you think and just looks at it as a good time with friends more than meaning anything. I don't think a threesome with Jill is entirely out of the question. Then again, episode 9 Jill showed some next level naivety that was unrealistic compared to more real world "Jill's" that I have known and was comparing Jill to. So, I could 100% be wrong as this showed me that I really didn't know the character like I thought I did.

Jason P

Sure, but emotionally the heart wants what the heart wants! FEED MY LIZARD BRAIN!!!!

shane

One fact we know for sure Lynette lived in the house that Jill grew up in and that her parents are still in that is a fact cause if you look at one of the times that she was writing in her diry she was on the balcony of the house. You can compare it when your in the house taking a walk with Jill's dad.

Malathus

I was going the reverse actually. Lynette's dad had to sell the house on the cheap to fund the hotel project. My suspicion is that we need to get tighter with Bianca's family to find out more about our own.

Malathus

Its like Bart and Lisa on the Simpsons....are we there yet?......are we there yet?.....are we there yet? The fine art of patience is just lost :)

Scott

Mc's mom definitely has a connection to Jill's family but I don't know if it's with any of the women in the group, maybe Jill's mom or sister but I'm not so sure. I'm thinking more like Lynette's father purchased the property for his hotel from Jill's family somehow.

Nordwolf

Calm down, Targonis... I don't see any pressure, bickering, or else in Muser's post. I felt the same the days before the release announcement. Most of us are feeling like children here the last days: Cannot wait until we get our candy :-D

Targonis

You know that rushing is how bugs end up in the released product, don't you?

Feets

I'm actually talking about the cliff hanger at the DIK'-giving party. I want to know if the floatation device I threw for Santa saved him.

Malathus

Targonis I was thinking of it as more of a CHICK cuddle 3some and less of a DIK fullout pornmovie 3some

Malathus

Vivian does look a bit like Amelia due to the hair, but otherwise I would say no. Amelia has the same eyes as Lana if memory serves

shane

Yes she does and Amelia might be her name but i think she was Lynette's friend Val. before she got married. Even though i would like to see Jill and Beonca with the MC together i don't think that will happen knowing that Jill is still so new to sex. I also can't wait to see what happen in Bela's house that they gave us a look in the beginning of episode 9. you do realize that was bela's house right?

Teufelhunde DJI

I suspect you are both right. Amelia mentioned that they bought the house 19 years ago from a business associate, I think. And MC is 19 years old. And Bianca does look very similar to Lynette's friend Miranda.

Targonis

Have you paid ANY attention to who(as a person) Jill is?

LordofEntropy

TBH I'm not a fan of this particular trope in the adult games space. It made more sense before the last couple years; free fantasy assets were far more plentiful compared to sci-fi or even more modern assets, which gave adult game devs little options for variety—thus adding in a game of D&D was an easy way to make some more content. Over the past couple years free sci-fi and contemporary assets have many more options available, and of course the rise of AI it's not really that necessary anymore; really it's just no stakes filler, like a dream sequence, ultimately meaningless. That being said, it's better than the seemingly ubiquitous "Truth or Dare" trope at least. Not once in my adult life past college age have I been at a party or gathering where any group of adults busted out a game of, "Truth or Dare." I've been at swinger parties, singles gatherings, gatherings with other couples in open relationships, and all sorts of the parties where people might be hooking up in a random rooms or behind the house, or even an impromptu orgy starts; never once did anyone propose "Truth or Dare."

Malathus

I keep wondering who is playing the better 3d chess. Lily or Quinn

Malathus

I would add Leap of Faith to my list if I hadnt done Cece's playthrough first and find myself crumbling at the bridge scene with each new play attempt.

Malathus

I'm thinking MMF is the "workaround" that JB mentions.

Malathus

I find myself wondering if after the Matt issue we have a threesome with Jill and Bianca

Joshua Dershem

DPC has stated previously that beta testing "typically" takes roughly two weeks which will be this coming Saturday if I'm not mistaken. That being said, as others, including DPC has said, it all depends on how much the testers find that needs fixing.

Ferny

Of course you're not the only one. Bella and Rio were my favorites since the beginning of the game, and S2 and 3 (thanks to a DIK playthrough) made me absolutely love Riona. I enjoy the back and forth between Lily and Quinn as well, but Rio is just the sweetest and I pray for her wellbeing and for more times with her and my MC. It would honestly shatter me if anything else (besides the kidnapping) happened to her.

Ferny

I found the choice interesting as well in my DIK playthrough, but even with all the things my MC has done in that save, I feel really weird ''accepting'' JB's proposal. Don't get me wrong, I freaking love Elena, but I see her so much as a sis of some sort that I just can't seem to go along with that choice.

SwordSaint

loosely related re:Bianca, DAE notice that during the first meet/greet in yoga class Bianca checks the MC out (or literally just checks his package out) her eyes very clearly look down, then back up. Thought that was interesting.

Malathus

Doctor Doctor! give me the news! I got a bad case of loving BaDiK?

Malathus

20 years ago you could be sure of quality from the 3 Bs Bioware, Bethesda, Blizzard. Unfortunately imo all 3 are trash now.

Malathus

Actually Jill comments back that it was Bianca's dad who brought it up I believe. So Bianca's dad would know our grandfather in theory. The two friends with our mom in the flashbacks were named Vivian and Miranda....so NOT Jill's mom. This is not to say that Lynette may not have known Amelia

Muser PT

C'moooon Doc! The waiting is killing me, I'm so excited for episode 11!

Nordwolf

I think the same, but without Jill's mom. Jill's dad mentioned that a friend of him recommended the house as the former owner had to sell it quickly - this former owner would be MC's grand father, Lynette's dad. I have the feeling that Bianca's mom and Lynette were friends. One of Lynette's friends looks a bit like Bianca, so she could be her mother. So my bet is that destiny brought MC back "home", where his mom used to live by being together with Jill. I doubt that there is any kinship between MC and Jill (some think there is) as Jill's family simply bought the house after MC's mom and her parents left.

R_TB_K

No, Im just dead ahahaha

briketsNbiscuits

I think a while back I remember reading about their going to be a total of 14-15 episodes. I could be mistaken though

briketsNbiscuits

Hoping MC can be the one that finally gives her the ever evasive orgasm.

briketsNbiscuits

I've played close to 400 (I mighy have a problem). Some of them I didn't even get past the first 30 renders. But BaDik has remained in my top 5 out of all of those.

briketsNbiscuits

I have so many different save files. One for each different route. I also have a save file for each "others" path just to see if that goes anywhere down the road. However on my first playthrough I played how I felt as well and ended up on the Jill path.

briketsNbiscuits

At my offshore station our septic tank is labeled as the 'suggestion box'. That's where the complaints belong.

shane

One thing i haven't seen anyone talk about yet is the fact that at the end of season 2 for Jill's parent's house and the MC's mom's home was the same and how she was talking about how she believes in destiny. I have yet to see them bring that together. I believe Jill's mom and Bionca's mom were friends with the MC's mom and I'm hopping that is the cause and would like to see it all come together.

Targonis

We have gotten one D&G session in season 1 and 2, so I'm expecting a D&G session in episode 11 or 12.

Philippe D.R.

You fainted you too? :D

Philippe D.R.

Isn't it always that way? Unless it is a Bethesda release. Then it's a half baked game riddled with game breaking bugs. :D

Philippe D.R.

You're not the only one! It was some of my favorite parts of the previous seasons!

Philippe D.R.

You will survive. I had to learn patience for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and I got through that waiting and it's so much worth the wait. We'll have a blast experiencing the next part of the story of our favorite characters soon enough.

Malathus

You just want to F the B out of her.

Charles S

Well, more Sally at least. lol

Malathus

Must save Rio!!!

Malathus

Maybe Patience is the Thirsty Ghoul's name :)

Kevin Ellison

Your right though. Its a pretty good idea tbh

Kevin Ellison

Keep telling yourself that Jay, we all believe you. haha

JonJohn

Ah shit everybody. It's about that time again. Can't wait to see how the story keeps unfolding.

JayW

lol no man, just based on my experience being able to hit number keys for dialogue options is a pretty smooth experience. Its not a complaint man just a thought for some improvement! lol

c0d3r

You really need 2 hands for a mouse click?

Kevin Ellison

My man haha

LukevdA

Ayo??????

jake

i said it oncee ill say it again YOU DA GOAT

JayW

I know this is a pretty minor thing but I was just wondering if there has ever been talk about possibly adding a Number like 1-5 for dialogue options and you can just hit the appropriate key to help make the communication experience even smoother. Would be really convenient to play this game with one hand. lol

Jason P

"I need to learn patience NOW"

Teufelhunde DJI

Agreed. I have played in excess of 30 AVNs and I'd say that maybe 5 are worth playing over and over and, at most, 10 are keepers. The rest are, for the most part, awful.

Ardor

No matter how she tries to deny it, Sally secretly wants some MC

twreuter

How can Sally content be wasted effort? Sorry, I don't get it.

Tytus

pls no, its wasted effort, better spend it on story scenes

twreuter

BaD will obviously have multiple endings and I sincerely hope, one will include Sally. Happily ever after. I know, the chances are slim, but a man can hope…

Malathus

I find if amusing to think that you playing bongos on her butt when she is stuck in the gate is actually her imagination and not yours :D

EvolutionReborn

It really depends on how much is left to fix on the episode. It could be a week to a month. If something is seriously broken then longer. I would assume this Friday we should hear a release window. But it could come later or sooner.

Ardor

Only if it opens doors with Sally

Ardor

@Feets - Yeah that is certainly part of it

twreuter

*Take cover behind Sally.*

Schobbob .

*throws sally in the bush*

Revanchist

How long is this beta lol

Michael

I WANT MORE TOO

Tyler Robbins

oh yeah thats definitely the best way to sell your game...

twreuter

Am I the only one who always hopes for some more Dungeons and Gremlins? I know it cannot be included in all episodes but damn, I had a blast with those 😄.

John Craig

checking it everyday xD

Frederik Carlsen

The wait is killing meeeee😎🎉

Targonis

Only those who go the Quinn route should have to worry about someone they are into getting knocked off. DPC does know how to make the players connect to characters, that's for sure.

Hill D

Not gonna lie I'm super excited

Arta

That's fair enough mate

Feets

I was waiting for the steam release to play the entire season at once but I finally caved with the announcement that episode 11 is almost done. Finally caught up on the interlude and chapters 9-10 and I was not disappointed. The only disappointment was knowing that I finished a little too early. But I did just a bit ago and my jaw hit the ground. Riona is my girl! Can't wait to save her.

Feets

The 100% dik or 100% chick route is also an interesting route to take. I've found that even with guides it's hard to not accidentally pick one opposing your path, especially because you don't find out if you are perfect until the end of each episode.

Feets

people don't learn, this is the internet, it's where complaints are logged.

Feets

After the episode 10 cliff hanger I don't blame you.

Nordwolf

guilty as charged

Adam

There is a phone chat option at the end of Chapter 10 in the Others path where Elena talks about what Joy boy said to you during the Thanksgiving Party. If correct choices are done through playthroughs you get a 3rd option which I believe gives you option later to do something with her.

Adam

Nope

Malathus

That would be Ryona not Riona. Taboo University has a Ryona as well

Martyn Thomson

Has anybody played the game personal assistant? Riona is in that after being kidnapped drugged and sold to a trafficker

Ardor

Am I the only one hitting the refresh button every so many hours hoping for the announcement?

BSG75

Elena better get it from MC in John Boy's bed.

Malathus

A Wizard is never late nor early. He publishes his game update precisely when he means to.

Grob Az

Easily the best comment in this thread ngl

Craigbk1976

That's Genius

Adam

Only way for people to learn

Jdog

LOL cruel punishment.

Malathus

I keep hoping that Acting Lessons isnt a repeatable trauma

c0d3r

Exactly.. I think anyone who complains about dev time especially here should be penalized by delaying their ability to download latest release by at least 1 week ;)

Jdog

It'll come out when its ready. thats how it is.

TheBennettFam

yea acting lessons shows even main charecters can be offed but i really hope your last statement comes true and we get to beat vinnys ass not just for her but because i still want revenge for the shit he pulled

Nordwolf

I really started to like Riona, too. Wasn't at the begining. But the more we got to know her, the more I liked her. However, Jdog is right, she is expendable in regard to the story. There are enough movies, books, games, etc. where characters are dying although people liked them. And whoever played Acting Lessons knows what will be possible in DPCs stories... This being said, I still hope, she will be fine and that MC can kick some ass to rescue her.

TheBennettFam

@Malathus took the words right out of my mouth like i said by far my favorite girl in entire game besides josy or sage

Malathus

Rio is not expendable. Do you realize we probably have seen more of her than anyone other than the Main LIs. She lacks confidence because Quinn keeps putting her down to keep her subservient. She thinks she is bad at school and yet doesn't fail classes. She loves games and cute/ugly stuffed animals. She really takes it to heart when people are mean to her. She always worries about money. Cammy has been a good addition to her life helping her gain back confidence. MC can also help with that if you help her. She has stalkers. She got kidnapped by the van that's been around her since Season 1. Yeah I know she's dirty, but she can also be very sweet.

TheBennettFam

defintely not lol shes my favorite girl hoping for her own branch

bringbacktbc

*Hands raised, sending the beta testers my energy*

Teufelhunde DJI

One of the things that I have learned playing this game over the years is that different approaches lead to a lot of different situations. For instance, when I first played, I made decisions based upon my own ethics. Needless to say, my decisions led me down the Chick path and multiple relationships at the same time. As we got further along, this led to a lot of entanglements especially when you got to the point that you had to choose one. Lately, I've been playing the game (repeatedly) with an individual focus instead of just DIK, neutral, or Chick and playing all the girls (Jill, Josy/Maya, Sage, and Bella) individually making choices (when options are present) that I knew would cause less conflict later on. For example, if I was going Jill-centric, I would just choose to be friends with Josy/Maya and be less aggressive with Bella. This leads to great diversity with the story lines. Just some suggestions to those that are new to the game. Considering that DPC is the master of the unexpected, however, I am sure that more craziness is in store for us.

Jdog

Nah she's Expendable however I doubt Doc would kill anyone off.

Jason P

Good timing. I've run out of "games" that I've wanted to try and the remainder seem highly likely to just make me angry with how bad they are (low tolerance for objectively dumb/bad. I could never stand to watch the bad pornos (pretty much all of them) other than to mock the hell out of them). At least 262 "games" later, this is still my favorite and I look forward to the next round of updates. I also appreciate how this one hasn't jumped the shark yet. Some AVN's seem to lose their way or others just get old/tired/stuck/formulaic for various reasons. Progression is important for story telling. It feels like a lot of shows/movies and even AVN's don't realize this and just like to milk a good start. Flavors matter, writing matters, as do relationships. It's nice to get most everything in a single package. TLDR: I'M EXCITED GUYS!!!

Nordwolf

You are not.

Nicholas Nail

MY GOD OKAY THIS IS HAPPENING. EVERYBODY STAY CALM.

Scott

Beta testing has commenced. Hyped!

Malathus

My reasons for thinking it is Mona are: 1 the Blue Eyes, 2 Drinking, Mona has quite the thirst for alcohol, 3 Mona had black nail polish on a few occasions. 4 She would know that she could slip into a DIK party without anyone really caring that much since she's not a male prep or nerd.

TheBennettFam

am i the only one hoping that riona is going to be okay and safe

Malathus

Well if any of our theorys pan out because down the road he decides "Hey that's not a bad idea" He can take full credit and I wont complain :D

Nordwolf

Interesting theory. I somehow have the feeling that it will never be resolved, who that was. Just some mysterious character to wrack our brains about... I could be wrong, though.

Flover

Maybe? Beta testing usually takes up to two weeks, and at the end of the second week the episode would be released. Dunno why that should be different this time (it is a bigger Episode though), testing already started at saturday so I have high hopes for the 21st 🤞.

AustinLCH

Thank you for the reply. Looking forward to the new episode and new project!

Targonis

Episode 12 will be the final episode for season 3, then we have all of season 4 at least for the story.

jack halenbeck

so hyped for this release cannot wait, thanks for all your hard work

Malathus

Just been doing another playthrough and found myself noticing that Mona had blue eyes, and it made me wonder if maybe she was the "Thirsty Ghoul"? The other option I can think of is the pink haired girl in our chem class who has not yet been named that I know of. Just speculating of course, but feel bad that Mona just walked off on us.

R_TB_K

I NEED A DOCTOR TO BRING ME BACK TO LIFE

Big A

Can't wait!

Tim Anderson

Great Work DR Pink, I dont care how long it takes, do it the right way and stick to your vision, and well be here to play when its ready to go.

John Vue

Nice update.

Julian Miranovič Štefanič

Thanks for the update, can't wait for the announcement to come. Was elated to read this one. Thanks, Doc. 😁✌️

Will Joy

He's already posted the final preview

Burak İnal

Can't wait Doc! Thanks

Kenny

Holy shyte! We’re finally here! Where the cake is so fresh you can smell it wafting down the street! (Pun!) Doc, can’t wait to dig into this. But I’m sure I speak for your fans here when I say it’s clear you’ve worked your ass off, we know you’ve encountered turbulence and still persevered, and I am very thankful for your work! Can’t wait Doc! Can’t wait!

Nikolaj Rechnagel Hansen

Not yet :)

Merc88

Thats great, heres a toast for a lesbian scene with Isabella

Nordwolf

I wouldn't say "already"; but with the rest of your comment, I fully agree :-D

AustinLCH

This is the final episode?

Nordwolf

These are some great news. I am ready :-)

Jacek Wiśniewski

That's what I'm talkin' about, final stretch. Thanks a lot DPC

Enigmacao

Nice

Arta

Great work, DPC! I can't believe another development cycle is already coming to an end. I'm so excited for the new episode—thank you for all the hard work! Enjoy your weekend!

DrPinkCake

You download the latest Patreon version and import your Steam/GOG save at the start of Season 3. Simply download the latest release, unzip, and play. Be careful not to merge the game with any Steam content.

R2D2TS

Thanks for the update. My excitement continues to build.

TangoVA

This has probably been asked and answered many times, so apologies if that's so. For anyone who has gone the Steam route, how do we get from the version/s available on Steam to the current release? Is that already available, a future plan, or what? Thanks and sorry if I've missed previous announcements that make it clear.

Devilsauce

Hell yes! And damnit, what a time for my laptop to die! Sigh

Grump Gaming

Awesome!

Jonathan Hang

Excellent news, Doc 😁! Don't worry. We'll take it from here (playing the game 😅). You just rest up and take a nice, deserved break 😉. I'm going to play through all my playthroughs 😋. Thank you for making and working hard to give us this amazing game! Love you and appreciate you, Doc ❤️.

T-Rex4

Craigbk1976

And away we go this is excellent news so stoked

DA Smurf

Good luck!

Sadie Adler

OMG IT'S HAPPENING 🤬🤬🤬🗣🗣👁👄👁 BELLAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Gusta B

post a preview!

patras

Great news :) Now that it comes to wanting to replay all the branches to refresh my memory, I have a feature request - I do not know if this would be possible with renpy: Would there be a chance to relive the choices I made throughout Episodes 1-11 by using a savegame and having an "autoplay" that has all choices-preselected according to my savegame? I suspect that unfortunately, the savegames do not retain all the information of how I got to where I am - but it would be nice to know exactly my "personal lore" of which conversations I had with whom on a specific playthrough.

Demis Bandini

Thanks Doc, while waiting for the new chapter to be released, I play the title again to refresh my memory. I can't wait. 🤤

Qii Yukihira

Nice

Waiter

Hmmm at this point, i believe that the release date will be some time in late Feb. to middle of March

Martyn Thomson

Gay porn hard!

Heraclivs

Take your time! And thanks to the testers ;)

Nisarg Patel

Home stretch let’s gooooooo

Notsud

Christmas was like 2 months ago... This is better. Cheers to the tester, they aren't there for enjoyment they are there to make sure we have the best possible time!

JEH

Thanks for the update Doc. 😊

Artem pupsik

Well, what can I say, we are waiting for the 11th episode

AfterLife

Great news Doc! Oh boy, its closing in

Barband

😍

Just Random Man

It will be released in march… Can’t wait!

Jdog

Dude can't wait for the release but as soon as you do please crack open a brew light a stogie and veg out for a bit.

Yas1yom

Its happenning brothers! Its fucking happenning!

Malathus

People who have never Beta tested can't understand the confidence you need for the tester to be valuable for you. Their job is to TRY and break crap and to note any issues they have on multiple playthroughs. Its not just getting early access to the game. Doc I hope your testers enjoy the game and that it is a smooth run, but I know "stuff happens". Enjoy your time as the testers run through Episode 11, and I have every confidence I will enjoy it myself soon.

Sam Gamer

Thanks for the update doc,have a good one

Lilatentakel

Enthusiasm overload 🥳 Best man, best game ever. You are the god of AVNs 😈 What more can we say that hasn't already been said. Soon we'll see our favorite ladies again and we'll finally find out what happens next 🥰 I can hardly wait until you finally release the update 🤪 Good luck to all testers, check thoroughly, take your time...but not too much 😂 Until the last post for this update 🍾

Lucas Santos

Thanks for the update Doc can't wait 🔥💪 and have a nice weekend

Yanis Joséphine

Oh sweetness! This is gonna be good.🔥🔥🔥

roman kulik

Thats great news, i didnt expect that you will be finishing the episode so soon, you are the only person making the game but you are faster than most big studios, hats off, but dont forget to sometimes take a break you are faster than most so you deserve a break
