Yeah, I think he said he started to work in BaDIK when he was in the middle of the development of AL. Perhaps he ended AL in the hasty and disastrous way he did because he wanted to start with BaDIK. And maybe there were vague plans to tie both games in the same universe, but at the end he decided (correctly) that it wouldn't work. Anyway, since most of AL fans were really pissed off by the ending of the game, I think DPC should draw a veil over this game and not shoehorn references to it into BaDIK. It's a game to forget.
I think you forgot that when BaDIK episode 8 came out, DrPinkCake made a post
celebrating AL and showing how he graphically revised some of its early content
just for the sake of it, because he really loved AL. If I remember well he even said that he loved AL
more than BaDIK.
About AL:
That's not how I remember things went. At all.
I've been following AL here on F95 since its 1st chapter.
Those were the days where few games (3-4) were uploaded daily and monthly updates were the basic rule.
Everybody loved every minute of AL
until the shit hit the fan. Chapter 5 came out, I downloaded it and I started playing it.
Then I came across the infamous choice - which girl should I rescue first from fire. I thought: "fuck, now what?"
So, I entered AL's thread and started reading posts.
Everybody was
angry as fuck and shocked: basically, you had to choose which main girl you saved and which main girl you made
die.
I dropped the game on the spot and I never came back. And that's what a lot of people did too.
The rest of us stayed until the very end, and I don't think anyone of them ever complained about the ending. As far as I know, everybody on AL's thread always tell that they love the game because of the very same reason I dropped it: because it emotionally wrecked them. They just love that kind of drama shit. NOT ME.
