Alright, figured I’d ask the people most qualified for this.

Who are the good people to follow on Twitter/X in this space?

Not really looking for pure promo accounts or bots trying to sell me overlays fifteen seconds after following me. More people with actual personality. Funny people. Weird people. Reviewers. Writers. Developers. Players live posting their favorite scenes, or emotional collapse after finishing a route at 3AM.

The kind of accounts where you read one post and immediately think:
“Ah. This person’s probably a disaster. I like them already.”

Drop your own @’s.
Or recommend people worth following.

Nobody warns you that Being a DIK eventually stops being “that horny little college VN” and quietly turns into maintaining seventeen parallel timelines so you can explore different combinations of love, lust, emotional self-destruction, betrayal, and women who could absolutely ruin your life if they existed outside a save file.

Human beings were not meant to become this attached to rendered people.

And yet here we are.

Anyway, after an amount of planning that probably should’ve been directed toward something healthier or more employable, this is the route setup I’m going with:

**NEUTRAL ROUTE**
• All main girls -> Sage (don’t tell Chad)
• Date all main girls -> but Jill (do drugs)
• Date all main girls -> but choose Maya & Josy
• Date all main girls -> Bella
• Date all main girls -> Zoey

**CHICK ROUTE — NO RESTAURANT**
• Loyal Sage — no free roam branch
• Loyal Jill (no drugs)
• Loyal Jill + Bianca
• Loyal Maya & Josy
• Others + Restaurant (Josy only)
• Others + Restaurant (Maya only)
• Others + Restaurant (Zoey)
• Loyal Bella

**DIK ROUTE**
• Full manwhore route
• Sage + Jade + Don’t Show Tape
• Sage + Jade + Show Tape
• Sage route — bang everyone -> no Jade
• Others -> Elena
• Others -> Sally
• Others -> Sandy
• Others -> Becky
• Others -> Heather
• Others -> Quinn
• Others -> Sarah
• Others -> Camilla
• Others -> Lily
• Others -> Nicole
• Others -> Riona
• Others -> Zoey
• Teachers Route (Bella, Jade, Cathy, Nora)

(Honestly the funniest part about Being a DIK is realizing the game slowly transformed me into a conspiracy theorist with spreadsheets trying to optimize fictional relationships).

Anyway.

If any of you played Being a DIK & spot a route, variation, or catastrophic life decision I’ve missed, let me know before I lose another 400 hours to this beautiful disaster.

(Kudos if you make the right guess on how many hours it will take before I’ve finished all these routes).

Steam’s Adult Games Week sale is here, which means my wishlist is about to become a morally questionable financial decision.

So hit me with recommendations. Looking for games on discount that are actually good beyond the obvious “two attractive people remove clothing” part. Great writing, memorable characters, emotional damage, unhinged romance routes, weird vibes, beautiful disasters, the whole thing.

What should I pick up before my wallet files for emotional distress?

I'm looking for games that haven't showed up on Steam, but probably should've. The games hiding in the darker corners of the internet built by insomniacs, romantics, and people who probably shouldn’t be left alone with dialogue trees.

Give me the weird little masterpieces. The games that made you forget you downloaded them for naked people.

We all know some of the best AVN's are hiding out in the digital back alleys of Itch, Patreon, and websites that make your antivirus nervous.

Tell me your recommendations, my browser history's already beyond redemption anyway.
