Shut Up I'm Talking: Dan and Phil Patreon highlights

Weird fan interactions: Fans lurking outside Jack's neighbor's house by accident. People waiting for Tommy in his local park. Dan and Phil staying at an Air B&B where the owner asked them to keep the door unlocked so her daughters could say hi (they just left). Phil’s new therapist having watched his videos before, they decided not to continue therapy together.

Tom, Jack, and Dan are basic names. Martin Lester = M.(o)Lester 

Tom and Dan and standup vs Youtube

Explaining twink death to Tommy. Tommy is still a twink, Jack is more twunk. Jack can’t grow a beard, Tommy shaves daily.

Phil hated being told what to do on the BBC “It felt like raising someone else’s child” “No regrets, but I wouldn’t do it again”

Dan called Phil babe (?) in the context of a squirrel bite

Phil’s parents were always supportive of his weird career

Phil keeps fixing Dan’s mic position

Dan knows nothing about the Dream drama, Phil watched Tommy’s newest video. They are both Team Tommy even thought they don’t understand the lore

Tom and Jack like to have nice long chats

Jack had a dream that he and Timothee Chalemet were friends so now he calls him Timmy

Dan thinks Nosferatu is hot. Tommy judges him severely. Phil was scared

Favorite movies: Dan says Kill Bill v.1, Phil says that’s his as well so one of them has to pick v.2. Jack has only seen v.1. Tommy’s favorite movie is UP

The Lion Guard trauma. Jack voiced 3 lines of a video game

Tommy comes back 5 minutes later to argue on behalf of UP

Dan calls Tommy an old soul

Being tall, mention meeting Ranboo

The people that live with Tommy are called the G-squad bc they all have Godzilla pants from Japan. The flat is called the G-spot

Dan’s Mario Kart rating is 12,000

Tommy is terminally offline and gets all his slang from Harry. He doesn’t know who the Rizzler is.

Jack is supportive of Dan and Phil for having Millennial humor.

This kind of reminds me of a calendar that I found last year when I went to the mall. I deeply regret not buying it. 

[frownyalfred]

actually Bruce in BVS was fucking ripped and anyone should’ve been able to see that but it really didn’t slam home for me until I saw him in the elevator going down to the Batcave and he had to actually hold his hands together in front of him all the way down so his fucking shoulders didn’t accidentally catch the walls, so. yeah. Batfleck was HUGE. what were those goons thinking.

💖 Day 3.5 is now available! 💖

For the last couple of months, only Server Boosters had access to the 3.5 update... Buuuuut now it's available for everyone to play in the 14DWY Discord — and soon itch.io once I'm happy with the QA and state of the game — so please don't feel pressured to join unless you want to!!

The full devlog + even more screenshots are under the cut ^^

What's been added to the 3.5 version?

📺 Streamer Mode!

I've been told that it's difficult to stream and monetise age-restricted videos on YouTube and Twitch, so I added an option to remove the sexual content and strong language used in the demo.

Now y'all can invite Ren into your bed for cuddles without putting your streamer career on the line /silly /lh

This won't affect the 18+ rating or dark themes/elements of the game, however! Although Streamer Mode will prevent you from seeing any "gruesome" CGs in the future, most of the core elements of the game will still be tied to the choices and decisions you make. So you won't miss out on the overall experience by using streamer mode!!

⚙️ Custom Pronouns!

It only took me one entire year to get around to it, but you can finally choose your own preferred pronouns (or use a set of pronouns instead)... At the cost of being able to change them mid-game ^^;

Since the original pronoun screen wouldn't update until a new scene was displayed, I temporarily disabled the feature. But once I find a workaround, I'll bring it back!

💗 Choose how others perceive you!

You can now choose how the cast and narration perceive you! Originally, the narration was kept strictly gender-neutral (outside of pronouns and genitalia picked by the player), but this will soon change in future updates.

For more clarity: you don't get to choose the words specifically, but you can choose between masculine, feminine, and androgynous terms!

📋 Separate top and bottom genitalia!

You can now choose your tatas and pps separately! >:3

Alongside that, you can also choose your preferred body type!

I removed the "both" genitalia option because a few players still assumed it was an obscure version of "intersex". That wasn't my intention and I don't want to mislead anyone, so I took it out for now ^^;

I also didn't want to include a screenshot of the new genitalia choices in action (because it's NSFW), so y'all get the same character menu screen for the nth time instead lmao

📱 Relationship Screen Overhaul!

You can now change your own status for more immersion, and long-term Server Boosters will eventually be able to submit and use their own icon within the game as well!

Stalking finding your friends has now become easier by using "Buddy Maps"; a new app that allows you to see the location of all the cast members!

I want to offer players more incentive to check the relationship screen since they tend to miss the status updates, so hopefully this might help ;v;

It also says it "updates every few hours" so folks don't go overboard and check every 5 seconds to see where Ren is gdsghf (also keep in mind that he's a hacker lol)

🖤 Additional Scenes Update!

Day 2 received a brand new CG!!!!! Originally, I planned on only adding a few CGs sporadically throughout the game, but it didn't feel right to leave Day 2 so... empty... so I added a brand new CG to (hopefully) make things feel more balanced and natural!

If you decline Teo's offer on Day 3, Leon will now call and try to convince you to reconsider. However, players are still allowed to decline, and if they do, they'll reach a dead end.

After listening to feedback on itch, I changed some of the dialogue during Days 1-3 to make it seem more consistent! They're only small changes though, so it's honestly not worth looking for sdgjssga

🎶 Updated BGM and SFX!

I wanted to try out a different style of music to see if it fits the vibe of 14DWY more! The BGM features more acoustics to suit the "beachy" theme of Corland Bay, though I made a conscious effort to include piano elements as well to stay true to the original!!

I figured it'd be better to give players a live example before I make a poll (to see if they prefer the change or not) and publish it to Itch.

Some new SFX have also been added, though it's very minimal and honestly not that noticeable.

How to download and play the update?

(warning: clicking on the following links will open Discord!!) To download the Day 3.5 update, simply join the 14DWY Discord server, verify your age, and visit the "14dwy-updates" channel!

Alternatively, you can also wait until the update is publicly released on Itch to play it as well!! (It normally gets released shortly after a round of QA testing/getting feedback from the server, though I may release it earlier if I feel like it hehe ^^)

Enjoy!!

my bf has informed me that Snake wears a corset so i made him this

[lil-pumpkin-ghost]

Well shit, I got summoned for jury duty on Monday. I asked one of my store neighbors where I work at about what to do and she told me to just answer the preliminary questions like an insane person and that should get me kicked off. Is there any other ideas I should try?

[s-wave-entertainment]

WHAM

HI. So like. Apparently GLITCH is unlisting some of the old promotional material for MD to declutter the channel, which is fair since I imagine the same must have happened to Meta Runner and Sunset Paradise once they concluded (not to mention the two new shows that are on the way alongside their ongoing one), but I was unreasonably distraught by this because something something neurodivergent queen. The trailer for Home is unironically my favorite because of how Genuinely Terrifying it is, and I was sad to see it go. Except, the channel who broke the news to me (unhelpfulcommentaryt, I believe is the name) also linked an archive of all of the old material that someone so lovingly put together. Massive W, I still have access to the trailer! So for old time's sake I decide to give it another watch, and-

Wait a second. Wait a goddamn second.

THE PICTURE IS RIPPED RIGHT BETWEEN N AND V.

THE PICTURE IS RIPPED. RIGHT BETWEEN N AND V.

"Ohhh but Myrah you're looking too far into iiiit that's just the middle of the picture calm doooowwnnn"

SHUT THE HELL YOUR MOUTH,

THE NIGHT OF THE MASSACRE WAS EXACTLY THE NIGHT WHEN THEIR RELATIONSHIP BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE STRAIN. THAT WAS EXACTLY WHERE THE RIFT BETWEEN THEM BEGAN AND EXACTLY THE NIGHT WHERE THEY STARTED TO GROW APART. And sure, maybe I am looking too far into it, but EVEN IF I AM, YOU CANNOT DENY THE FACT THAT I AM R I G H T -

[basilpaste]

ive been trying very hard to formulate a way to say this that doesnt make me sound like an asshole but honestly ive like. given up.

youre gonna drive yourselves fucking nuts with all the doom posting. and all the "its gonna be okay, you have to live" posting isnt any less doom posting. its all the same song to a different tune.

its shitty and terrible and youre allowed to feel shitty and terrible. but its not like. gonna change because you feel shitty about it. and constantly thinking about how shitty you feel about it is just gonna make you feel worse.

go like. eat a snack or something. play a game you like. i dunno. its shitty! but dont spend your time catastrophizing. drink some fuckin water or whatever other cheesy bullshit keeps you occupied while you process.

HOW DO WE GET THESE BORING AF PRIMARY COLORS FOR THE SPLATFEST WHILE JAPAN GETS THESE REALLY BEAUTIFUL COLORS?? MY GOD I REALLY WISH I COULD SWITCH SPLATFEST REIGONS...

[grandwretch]

modern au; nonbinary steve

dustin bullies steve into playing their favorite MMO with them. to Dustin's disgust, Steve's favorite part is collecting all the different cosmetic items and making cool fantasy outfits for his avatar. unbeknownst to the party, steve creates an alt account where he can collect the female outfits and wigs, because there's a bigger selection and they're much prettier.

as Steve interacts w people on his new account, he realizes he likes it better-- for one, people pay attention to women in a way he isn't used to. not all of it is good attention, but steve relishes in it. also, he likes that people see him as a woman. he likes that they don't even think about it. quickly he joins a guild and actually starts playing the game in earnest, just so that he has these relationships with people who view and treat him as a woman.

he meets Eddie there. Eddie is charming and flirtatious with everyone, men and women, but it's clear that Steve is his favorite. Very carefully, Steve becomes closer and closer to Eddie-- close enough that Steve is full of guilt.

He feels like he's lying to Eddie about who he is, even though he's told the truth about everything but his gender. Even worse is the realization that he doesn't ever want Eddie to think of him as man-- which is confusing, because steve isn't exactly comfortable with someone he's falling in love with thinking of him as a woman.

Things get even worse when, after Steve drunk texts Eddie after a night out with Robin, they start sexting. Its fun, casual flirtation, nothing too serious, but Strve realizes he likes the idea of sex better as his alternate self. He likes pretending to have tits, he likes imagining what it would be like to have a cunt, he likes talking about wearing lingerie and being Eddie's good girl.

He thinks he can't come clean without losing the best thing he's ever had, so Steve pushes his guilt down and pretends he's not in love.

Of course he gets caught out, eventually. Dustin and Eddie become friends in real life and Eddie isn't an idiot. Steve is mortified and distraught, but once Eddie is sure that this wasn't all a cruel prank, he's quick to assure Steve that nothing has to change-- Knowing that in real life Steve has broad shoulders and a square jaw doesn't make him any more of a "man" than his online avatar makes him a "woman". Not if that's not what Steve wants.

So Steve doesn't have to give anything up. He gets to keep his amazing, supportive boyfriend. He gets to keep his pretty clothes and avatar. He gets to keep experimenting in the bedroom, finding out what makes him happy instead of what he thinks he should be doing.

And he gets more, things Steve never even dreamed of having: He gets to start buying pretty clothes in real life, too, and they hang next to his polos like they belong. He gets to grow out his hair. He gets to slowly find out what he likes, how he wants people to think of him, how he wants to think of himself.

[stagefoureddiediaz]

The Helena diaz of it all has me fascinated. I’ve said for a long while that Eddie’s real issues are his mommy issues and this episode just cemented for me that we’re gonna explore that and deal with it.

Because it’s Helena who forced Eddie to grow up to fast - because her husband wasn’t around much - so she pushed Eddie into de facto parent and husband role ls - selfishly filling her needs and ignoring the damage it was doing to her son (it is a form of abuse in my book).

Eddie then had the audacity to fall in love with and marry Shannon and get her pregnant. It’s why Helena was always so off with Shannon - she was punishing her. She is also punishing Eddie for all of this and his refusal to return to El Paso only cemented further her bitterness and resentment.

Now she does have Ramon back she doesn’t need Eddie any longer to fill that role so she is still punishing him and part of that is tied into her glee over now getting to parent Christopher - something she has always been intent on doing the doppelgänger just gave her the opportunity- as well as allowing her to further punish her son and his love of Shannon.

Her barbed comments about building a pool were all about showing what she can provide Christopher - how she is parenting him better than Eddie - it’s part of her mind games - making Eddie feel like more of a failure as a parent to his son.

The reality of course is that the reverse is true - Helena’s parenting is all superficial, flash and showy - it isn’t the hard day to day parenting when things get tough and you have to be the bad guy. While Eddie has made mistakes, there is nothing superficial, flash, or showy about his parenting. It’s why bucks comments about Eddie being a great dad are so important.

Eddie feel like a failure right now and that he is entirely to blame for everything. But in reality, while he does bear a bit of the responsibility, the truth of the matter is that he needs to learn and deal with the fact that all of it actually stems from Helena and her abuse of her young son - Shannon never stood a chance just like Eddie never has.
