This game has officially entered 'time waster'. If it updates, great. If not, no big loss. It's so overly bloated at this point, and the quality suffers. with all the 4090 cards, you would think that DPC could illustrate a pair of yoga pants ripping that doesn't look like it's made of literal paper mache.

It officially crossed over the "time wasting" territory when DPC locked the sage scene to a select choice of not even flirting with jade back in episode 3 (sage being on DIK path no less). I finally broke down and just used the cheat mod, because that's completely asinine. If his expectation to justify a yearlong update is for you to go all the way back to episode 3 to replay to get a specific scene now, that's f**cked. It's already a chore to get through the SAME storyline, same math answers, english scrabble, to grab the few extra scenes. with regards to the overarching storyline, not much changes? no matter which LI path you're on? I understand DPC is only one person, but there's really no point in cycling through the same 500 scenes just to get a couple off the path sex scenes. It's not a meaningful change in experience, and it's just tedious and repetitive. It's just not worth it. Is there even any penalty/reward for not failing tests anymore? I don't notice any change.

Not the mention the drop in the quality of the scenes aren't really worth it either? I really don't like DPC's recent trend of having YOU pick the sex position to go back to, and when you want to "cum". Just kinda kills the immersion. I went back and replayed a sage sex scene (from season 1 ep 2or 3?) at the DIK/HOT party outside and the animation, shots and pacing of the scene was 1000x better than the recent sex scenes that have supposedly have beefed up quality renders etc.

The story has had glacial movement, instead DPC is focused on introducing new characters to an already bloated cast of girls. It shouldn't take a year+ to write a fairly obvious story on a college guy trying to fuck girls on campus, and a drug scandal that's been teased since episode 1. I haven't noticed any QoL since like episode 6 or 7, and i think DPC was releasing updates every couple of months, not years.

Agree 100%. I wasn't even excited for this newest update and haven't even played it yet. Ep 9 and Ep 10 were slow, boring, and just below average at best. This game drew me in early on but somewhere in the middle, it just fell flat to me. I have been sticking with it since I did put a good amount of time into playing it but it's fading fast. He could probably cut down on a ton of dev time and get updates out faster if he doesn't overcomplicate things like the minigames and put stupid added things like the fight club into the game. Even people who might like the fight club thing, I'm pretty sure would forego it if it meant more updates and better story advancement.

I wouldn't mind seeing an movie/mini-series adaptation of Being A DIK, even if it's a porn parody instead of borderline like American Pie. They've done it with videogames that had worse stories (aka zero to none).

Maybe there would be less sex in the series than in the game. I think it would be like Californication

The story would fit a small serie yeah and without the need for so much sex scenes we could focus on the characters a lot more which is the strong point of the game anyways.

True. I believe that if you're not on any route, the only "sex scenes" you really get is the Maya-teasing and the cum-petition following back to back. All others are optional (not counting the interlude).

Jill's mom feels so frigid to me. It feels that even if we had that chance, the dick would come out completely frozen out of her.

That would make it even worse than Becky... Is that even possible?

Then again, her husband (forgot his name) shot his load at least 2 times in her, so that must mean she has some sexual capabilities.

But it would need a canon girl for MC to end up with anyways. It's not like he can follow all the routes.

The real question is who would be the main love interest in the series? I imagine it would be Sage or Jill with Sage being the more likelier due to her proximity to the diks and her Chad storyline opening up a whole lgbtq storyline which would be appealing nowadays.

But because of this, a large number of plot twists and jokes can be lost.

I think the plot of the game would be enough for a couple of seasons, like in Sex Education.
