Yea, anyways. I really like the banking part of Banking on Bella. I don't know why ... it's just interesting to me.
Cause that's where the most development takes place. The girls routes are spread out over multiple girls: ex has 1 date, abby has 2 etc. (A reason you don't go exclusive routes with too many girls: Individually they don't get enough development to suddenly support the entire game. Needs more time per girl to flesh them out). The personalities & motivations are well done tho, has potential.Yea, anyways. I really like the banking part of Banking on Bella.

Oh no, I meant I actually like reading about assessing risk, loans, fiduciary, blah blah blah, etc.Cause that's where the most development takes place.

The sex scenes are okay, but could use more choices: in 1st scene you cannot proceed without choosing cunnilingus & in genna scene choosing anal automatically proceeds to rimjob (the cunnilingus block is used fairly often even if I personally dislike it, rimjob was surprising as it often gets complained about & usually gets a choice)
But you spend days in the office the most. You interact with the characters there multiple times more than the others. The characters are colorful with the friendly coworker, slimy superior, kind senior, quirky fran, etc. The plot is also nice & relatable with the mafia plot adding some spice. You also actually see the work instead of "you did some work", adding further sense of realism without getting too deep into the numbers.
I really enjoyed the meetings with Fran, the realisation about the mobster(forgot name), seeing the projects progress etc. on the common route the most. The main reason this game stands imo. (Though I prioritized raising my level & got no benefits)
Which causes another problem if you replay the game & skip through the best parts, making the game feel emptier.
Dating sims are a dime a dozen. It's the work part, how the main goal is to succeed at work & not get washed out, that sets this game up & apart imo.
Well, I don't think I've ever played a porn VN that was "oscar worthy" and don't think I ever will, no matter how good it is Most porn games that focus on story ahead of sex scenes, well at the end of the day, yeah, I have to admit will only ever be porn game quality in their writing in my opinion, so that's the lense I view it from. It's never at that point where it's going to make you think real deep on anything or unravel multiple complex layers with glee like a Coen Brothers or Tarantino movie will. And I of course say that with no insult intended towards any dev on this site or any sense of superiority on my part or anything like that. I'm pretty sure we're all aware of the same thing; we're just here to indulge our (often times immature) fantasies and free some milk from the ol' dipper Well, most of us anyways. No insult intended ofc to people who just like to read a story that interests themRather than a difference in taste, it's more like a difference in the genre. Like an oscar winning movie with sex scenes will always be better in terms of plot & character development than a porn movie but you wouldn't put that on over the porn when you wanna masturbate ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
You can watch both however, just for different goals (quick fap vs long term enjoyment). Similarly I think VNs have the potential to be either & I enjoy both genres of games.
I also don't like sitting with my dick in my hand, but there are exceptions. I remember when I 1st played FateStayNight. I just had some basic understanding of eroges & dl the game from a eroge site. I literally started playing with my dick in my hand
But when the h-scene eventually came(the next day, in a different sitting), I was annoyed at the long sex scene since I was so invested in the plot by then.
I think I described it well when I said "Basically these still feel like sex/porn games with the amount of sex scenes compared to story building, while BaDiK is more like a VN, a story telling journey about well developed characters worth getting invested in, with sex scenes being naturally being a part of the story."
So definitely try it out, just don't start with your dick in your hand
Sit down when you have time, like when you watch a movie or a TV show with nudity/sex scenes & enjoy the story slowly build up the characters & their relations & their problems. BaDiK is definitely not a fap game if that's your only interest in the VN medium.
I think you'll still enjoy it tho. It's really great execution of script to screen using the VN medium.
Okay, no more BaDiK talk on the BoB threadYou don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Don't think those filmmakers ever made me salivateIN OTHER NEWS. UPDATE - Executive Level Patrons can expect access to the Beta in the next 24-48 hours.
Yeah. Almost edited out the oscar part. But kept it as hyperbole. I basically meant every game doesn't have to be a fap game. Slow burn games will obviously have better character development & less sex scenes in exchange (the oscar & porn movie represented this)Well, I don't think I've ever played a porn VN that was "oscar worthy" and don't think I ever will, no matter how good it is Most porn games that focus on story ahead of sex scenes, well at the end of the day, yeah, I have to admit will only ever be porn game quality in their writing in my opinion, so that's the lense I view it from.

Can't tell if this is supposed to be passive aggressive If so, no need to be rude... Pablo's continued work on the next chapter this whole time and he's made great progress as usual. The coding and bugtesting etc. is what caused the delay afaik, and since they're a team w/ rl job and family... can't expect things to go 100% smoothly 100% of the time. One guy might have weeks of more free time while another might get super busy with work or family. Just how it goes sometimes.Will be interesting to see that changelog after 8 months.. ^^
No need to go on a tangent and regurgitate answers to questions that no one's asked, don't want to come off as passive aggressive now do you?Can't tell if this is supposed to be passive aggressive If so, no need to be rude...

If not and you were being innocent, then I apologize But, considering what I just previously said, longer release schedule doesn't always mean more content. Pretty sure this update will be about the same size as usual.
And also, it depends on what type of work was done as well as not all updates are the same. For example, LoML is taking longer and longer because he's doing more and more lude scenes as the relationships have reached their zenith. Basic chatting, day-to-day, introducing characters etc. can reuse poses and expressions and sometimes images. My understanding is lude scenes require lots of reposing and ofc each scene requires multiple renders. I'd imagine the same will occur with this game.. that's just kinda unavoidable as a game gets more developed and complicated.
