I'M LITERALLY CRYING DEREK IS SO SWEET!!!! The DLCs are so worth it and I NEVER spend money on games. I've only done the Step 2 moments so far, but baby Derek is so thoughtful and selfless and I just adore him so much. The sleepover and boardwalk moments were my favorites, I loved how much emotion and depth each character had (and I just love anything with soft Elizabeth). The Derek epilogue had me BEAMING. I didn't think the game could get any better but seeing the "side" characters' storylines have made me appreciate the writing and worldbuilding even more.
Hey! do you mind if i ask how you got the dlc to download? ive tried what the creator said but im still a little lost.. Im not the bright when it comes to technology.id really appreciate the help. I love this game and i really want to play this dlc
You also need to start playing before Step 2, either loading a save in Step 1 or starting a new game. You can't load a save that's already in Step 2, otherwise you'll miss the chance to choose your relationship standing with Derek and won't be able to play his Moments.
You do need to play Derek's version of the Soiree to get Derek's Step 4 epilogue, you can't do Cove's version. But that doesn't unlock his other Step 2 Moments. There's a yellow button on the right side of the Moment screen. You click that to switch over to Derek's Moments.
So heyy!!<3 I hii just wanted to say i love the game. but i have a silly question... So I purchased this game a LONG time ago. but...i never been able to open it. and ive tried everything in the book so ..i kinda just stopped trying. I was wondering if you can help me? I really wanna play Derek's story!! so it would mean a lot!:3
What Ive done;
- Ive clicked on the document and then get this (Now am not really the best with computer terms but most of the time it just gives me a blank sheet of paper? i dont even know what rpa. means)=
I try to open it and i can only open it with these apps=
Then if i even open it in one of the apps i always get some error or this for ex;
I really really..wanna play Dereks route!! and i swear to god ive tried everything TwT but it just never gives me a file leading to the actal game or route. always something like the picture above.. so please please what else can i do?
Hello! The .rpa isn't a game build file, clicking it or trying to open it won't do anything. You have to add the rpa into the main Our Life: Beginnings & Always "game" folder to unlock Derek's content.
1. Download the zip file after purchase and extract the zip to get a folder
2. Open the folder of your current Our Life Build and find the "game" folder inside. To view folders on Mac you might have to right click the application launcher and select "view package contents" and you may have to open a couple different folders before you find the "game" folder tucked away inside
3. Move or copy/paste the rpa file into the Our Life "game" folder
After that, the build you already had will now include all the extra content this DLC gives.
So I played this dlc a while ago, but I wanted to play it again so I redownloaded our life and tried to copy and paste the rpa but it seems to be having the hardest time doing that :/
All I get is this tab and the bar doesn't seem to even move. I retried this 3 times now. And I turned on and off my computer. So Uhm what do I do?
I'm sorry, that would have to do with the device. I can only guess what might be causing it. Maybe moving the original file into the folder instead of copying/pasting it would work better. But you could try searching for the specific type of computer you have and searching if there's an explanation for not being able to copy over files.
Yeah, I guess my computer won't let me copy and paste files for some reason, but I just had to move a bunch of files around and I got it to work! So I'm good :D
SO SWEET!!! I adore the Suarez brothers with my whole heart. Nico is adorable and Jorge is so quietly caring!! the heart to heart they had legit made me tear up, it was so sweet. and I LOVE being able to treat Mr. Holden as a dad figure. its so funny because on my Baxter route, Mr. Holden was my first crush LOL but in Derek's route I keep making him tear up with how I treat him like a dad. its so cute. Obviously I love Derek too, but his character and his route wouldn't be as interesting without the care he has for his brothers
I'm confused on how to install the Derek/Baxter/Wedding DLCs. The other 3 were zip files I extracted a game folder from. These 3 are rpa files. I'm using MacOS. I can't tell if I also need to extract them, or the rpa files can be placed directly in the MacOS folder?
You don't need to extract them. We simplified the DLC process, so you just put the rpa files into the folder. But if you have older versions that were zips, you should update the base game and those DLC to be the latest versions. The new DLCs can't work with old builds. Removing the old versions won't delete your save files!
Ok. Hm The Step 1-3 bonus DLCs had rpa files and folders. I downloaded everything yesterday for the first time so they should all be updated. I never got Dereks ending in Step 4 so idk what happened. I did take him to the dance in Step 2 which someone on reddit said that means the DLC is in just fine.
In that case they should be fine. But you don't need the folder, just the rpa. I'm not sure why a folder would appear for some of them but you can ignore that part.
Is there any guide? I never flirted with Cove, did every Moment during each Step, did any choice to flirt with Derek and even took him to the dance, and Step 4 never gave me the option to pick Derek.
Did you choose to keep in touch with him while you were apart during Step 3? And did you do the Moments on the second page? There's a button on the right side of the Step 2 Moment select screen that lets you switch to five Derek Moments.
La verdad me decepcionó con su aptitud fría y alejada haciendo que sea difícil conseguir por lo menos un beso por qué abrieron la puerta sus hermanos, no hubo y...al final jaja la remato con trotar así sin más jaaaaaa :"7
Pensé que era romántico cuando están ya grandes , bueno aparte su familia metiche
Creo que lo único romántico,aclaro: a mi no me gusta de niño pero pasaron momentos lindos juntos pero cuando creció yo quería más y nadaaa
Tenía una duda si al momento de cambiar su personalidad en la ruta le puse opciones estudioso y frio a cove eso también aplica a Derek? La verdad en la ruta de Derek lo evite por qué me sentía infiel perdón jejee

Before I consider buying this DLC are there any requirements besides being having a Fond relationship with Derek to access his Step 2 moments?
You also need to start playing before Step 2, either loading a save in Step 1 or starting a new game. You can't load a save that's already in Step 2, otherwise you'll miss the chance to choose your relationship standing with Derek and won't be able to play his Moments.
So I don't need to invite him to the Soiree or something to access his other moments?
You do need to play Derek's version of the Soiree to get Derek's Step 4 epilogue, you can't do Cove's version. But that doesn't unlock his other Step 2 Moments. There's a yellow button on the right side of the Moment screen. You click that to switch over to Derek's Moments.

Will you guys ever make a another DLC for Derek's storyline like maybe for a wedding?
I'm afraid not. We've gotta work on newer projects now.

I'm glad you found a way!

I downloaded the game but i don't know how to play it im on laptop
To use DLCs, you just place the rpa file into the "game" folder of the Our Life folder you downloaded.
