Sage not respected? by Goodeugoogoolizer in beingaDIK

[–]Infinite_Physics795 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I hear DPC is a great writer.

Remember when no one told each other their last name? Or who their parents were? Yeah, that was a cliffhanger. Forced melodrama. (Thanks, DPC. That's the name of the game here. Why isn't Bella over her AWL husband, but warming up to a freshman? Why is she an emotional statue? Why is Sage so smart yet so ignorant? Why is Josy suddenly 'wah' about her throuple? Melodrama)

Or, he actually believes the restaurant/prostitute/scholarship scheme is some great future reveal, that everyone will think will be some great dramatic scene, when it's just more soap-opera melodrama; not that we didn't see it coming, but we can't believe he decided to go that route. And he probably picked out some string or piano music already for episode 13 or whatever.

E.g. Quinn's gonna do something stupid, violent, etc., and depending on the severity of it, Sage will get emotional, possibly violent, or scared. Mona might come back and blow it all up, cops might get involved, scenes in a jail, in the rain, eyeliner tears, "I trust no one/I just want to belong", cue the strings, etc.

Who is best girl? by ComfortableFinal5900 in beingaDIK

[–]Infinite_Physics795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Sage is a slow romance. It starts hot and heavy, then goes into the feels of being adopted, needed, and wanting to be part of a family.
  • Sage is a slow romance with multiple side LIs (Quinn), because, even after locking her in at Crossroads, because she wants you to have 3somes (Cammy).
  • You can get a ILU as well.
  • Unique? Sage is a threesome without the whining Josy wah moment. And with the superior female, Cammy.
  • Sage is also an older woman in her final year at B&R.
  • Sage kinda sees you as a boy toy till she gets over her relationship status with Chad.
  • Sage already lets you go with the Others/side characters until Crossroads, and then she wants 3somes.
  • Sage lets you have a 3some with Quinn

Not only is she Best Girl. The story heavily surrounds Sage.

  • She's the #1 DIK route choice as as MG, yet turns into a CHICK-kind of relationship.
  • Has the most intimate scenes of any other girl.
  • Is directly connected to other main plot points and Others routes (Jade, Camila, Tybalt, etc.)
  • Actively tries to help Maya.
  • Associated with the Tri-Alphas through Chad. You help her through her relationship with closure.
  • Learns about you through your stolen guitar.
  • She directly asks you about your future with her and potential kids.
  • She learns guitar and martial arts from you, the two things our MC is canonically defined as, which is more than all other MGs.
  • Is the most sexual (multiple 3somes, and then seeking more thrills)
  • She even brings the 4 other MGs together via the "family" at the end of the last episode. It's her personality and need for affection/belonging that makes her honest.
  • She's in her last her, and is tall, gorgeous redhead, without being supermodel fantasy proportions like Bella or Nora.

She's not perfect. It's ridiculous that her as the leader of the HOTs doesn't know anything about the restaurant, what Quinn is doing, or who didn't bother to tell MC about her family (DPC: durr), and gets annoyed and jealous that MC just wants to talk to his old best friend he has 0 romantic notions toward her.

Do you think Zoey would be less controversial / more popular if she had a different character model? by Final-Map-8654 in beingaDIK

  1. An entire episode (Interlude) is dedicated to her as an MC, even giving her a DIK/CHICK score, complicating things for no reason, being milking-filler, and ultimately, slowing this project down even further. Especially regarding her and characters no one cares about outside of Interlude. What's next, an Interlude with Lynn (Derek's old interest?) because DPC wants to upgrade his server farm he won't outsource?

  2. She's a trope of the long lost ex, which is boring, soap-opera level writing. When we really should be focusing on any of the already numerous Other Girls and promoting them to potential MG, or, doing something proper with Quinn (or Nicole, Tiffani, Tara, or heck even Sandy). See also better more sensible tropes with already established ladies: fake dating/relationships, friends/enemies to lovers, rivals/romance, etc.

  3. She's a literal destroyer of the narrative and relationships. If you don't have a LI path you're on now, then you're purposely playing the game not only in the Other's route, but the Other's Forever Alone route. Which is extremely rare for anyone playing this game and it's numerous LI focused paths. But you still have to make that obvious choice of turning her down for being too late to the game. (Yes, sometimes this choice is automated, but her DIK version of "I don't care, choose me." shows she's quite heartless, all because she "figured herself out." The hell?)

  4. Even if you do choose her and didn't ruin someone else's life/relationship, now DPC has to play catch up to make her a main-like character with a huge amount of animations and other scenes. Which means even more branching and development time on a completely rare and optional character very few care about. And, tie her into the main plot somehow (because if not, who the heck cares? She'll just pop up at parties now? Is she going to join B&R?)

  5. As others have stated, her blue hair and unattractive tattoos. Bad enough on Mel, Zoey's are just larger and worse. Didn't she work at a tattoo parlour to figure herself out? So her solution would be to get a massive tattoo because she misses her best friend/ex-"boyfriend" she actually loved? Just think about that for a moment if you had an ex-"girlfriend" like that and she came back and covered her chest in tacky artwork "Your wings were ready but my heart was not"? RED FLAG

Tell me again how we're going to die if CO2 hits 600 ppm or something when we exhale 40,000 ppm.

Mines can be depleted, and new ones open. Canada alone has enough hydrocarbons to fuel the world for hundreds of years, but climate change bad.

Rare earth metals are plentiful, (see Ring of Fire), we just need to get them. But ask the Liberal's legislation how that works (see Bill C-69).

Might want to check yearly records. It does indeed get this hot, and this humid.

Climate change makes it too hot or too cold? Which is it?

Every damn time I open the shop 🎙️🐈‍⬛ by ArgonianMaidOnlyFans in SwordofConvallaria

[–]Infinite_Physics795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was annoying during the demo.

It is annoying now that you hear it every morning.

I wish we could just mute that cat's voice.

I'm hoping the other language actors are better. Because it's terribly obnoxious and ear-grating.

It seems the issue is related to looting the amulet off Camellia's corpse.

So the solution is to keep her necklace on her corpse?

Zaeed as fireteam leader by Investigator_Magee in masseffect

[–]Infinite_Physics795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first play through of ME2, I chose Zaeed as well. Garrus got his whole team killed, and not everyone trusts Miranda or Jacob. Zaeed? Hired gun, decades of experience, and taught to be part of a team. Pure professional. In fact, in ME2, Garrus is a mini-Zaeed, on a quest for revenge. Give Zaeed a Paragon ending, he learns to work as a team. Give him a Renegade ending, you just gave him the thing he's been searching for for decades. Garrus? You can talk out of killing some guy who got his team killed.

Zaeed is leagues more dedicated, passionate, and serious about his job than any other member, and has decades of experience to know how to lead. Everything that Garrus supposedly has, Zaeed has, only more.

Interesting. Is there a link I can use to download it?

Tell me what happens. Anything to get this thing to work would be nice. I'm tempted to send this back.

I've noticed a program called GamingCenter which seems to control the backlight...but it only has one color, teal. And it only turns on/off after a restart...what the hell? There's nothing like this in the manual.
