Half the chapters deal with pregnancy, religion, abandonment, blackmail, drug addition, and identity crises. In the next few chapters, everyone will probably get AIDS and thrown in Soviet gulag. Come play!Question and almost surely an unpopular opinion..
I absolutely love Acting Lessons. I think that, while the formula is simple enough, it was extremely well executed and left a very good effect on me! Kudos to dev, really. I even registered to Pinkcake patreon for a while to show support.
Then, some years ago I played BADIK up to chapter 4/5. It was not good. Like below average. To the point in which I didn't care about any single character (can't even remember their names).
Does the game ever become good like Acting Lessons, in the sense of being an emotional rollercoaster? Or does it stays as the average "insert yourself so you can pretend you live this awesome everybody loves you MC time at college fucking hot girls?"
I want chaos, conflict and despair, joined with happy feelings, thrilling and emotion, like Acting Lessons. Does BADIK ever comes close to that? or stays a teenage boy fantasy?
All those sound good, but it is more a "feeling" kind of thing what I am talking about.Half the chapters deal with pregnancy, religion, abandonment, blackmail, drug addition, and identity crises. In the next few chapters, everyone will probably get AIDS and thrown in Soviet gulag. Come play!
It's funny, I enjoyed AL almost up to the end. Then the incident, which I found to be kinda cheap and gimmicky, reminded me distinctly of one of those awful 'who get's kicked out of the lifeboat' test they give you in school.Question and almost surely an unpopular opinion..

It's possible that marrying Nicole is one of the endings for Others path. However all the fun stuff happens before the end. The end will likely be a few images and some text, eg "Stripper Ending : mc married Nicole. mc started a career as stripper so they could work together. They lived happily ever after. The End."
What kind of marriage content do you expect from a game about a young 19 year old guy fresh in college?
Your best choice probably is to learn DAZ and create your own Nicole content ...
Writers say, the good start is the easy part. The hard part is thinking up a good ending. I wonder if that is what happened in AL. He couldn't think of a good way to end it, so he sort of threw a tantrum knocked everything off the table and onto the floor. I suspect he won't knock it all on the floor this time, but perhaps he really isn't sure what to do with all these loose ends.It's funny, I enjoyed AL almost up to the end.

Conversely I really enjoyed the first season of BaDIK, but I sometimes wonder if someone else wrote the subsequent season's
It's a good point, and I'm not on the solidest of ground here because I'm working on a 'sense' or feeling here. But the latter episodes (I would say after ep5) of BaDIK just don't have the same impact. A good example, the backyard guitar lesson in ep5. I really enjoyed that scene, I could immerse myself in a romance with Sage in that scene, looking forward to more immersion coming. But it never arrived. The date in the latest episode should have had something like that but I just wasn't feeling it.Writers say, the good start is the easy part. The hard part is thinking up a good ending.

So maybe he will simply set the HOT sorority house on fire.
To be honest I don't expect anything from the end of the story. My expectations disappeared after chapter 9 and now I'm just moving on to see how bad the resolution of the different plots will be. Or to sum up my opinion would be the following:It's a good point, and I'm not on the solidest of ground here because I'm working on a 'sense' or feeling here.

How could that be? How could an author nail the first scene then completely flub the latter?
Yep, I'm pretty much in the same place. Was only really interested in Sage, and DPC managed to ruin her in the second season so I'm only sticking around to see the end. If there is an end and DPC doesn't just get bored with it all and drops the game.To be honest I don't expect anything from the end of the story.

Acting Lessons was great and a true genre changer, transforming AVNs from simple one-handed gameplay into seriously dark drama.Question and almost surely an unpopular opinion..

No problem. In the future I will put everything longer than couple images under the spoiler tag, I forgot about it yesterday.come on guys, you can make memes and stff but keep it in the down low. if the pages gets flooded with them then we have to clean it up. the occasional 1 or 2 memes are fine
I think so that you will get what you want. Many people overlook the evidence. The MC once said to Maya that EVERYONE deserves a second chance. What will be the MC's second chance? Why does he get a second chance.Question and almost surely an unpopular opinion..

Even after EP5 there are many good emotional scenes for every LI, path and branch. I imagine that the player's feelings play a role in which character in the game he feels most connected to. What empathy he has for the characters themselves.It's a good point, and I'm not on the solidest of ground here because I'm working on a 'sense' or feeling here.

Lets not kid ourselves either.Acting Lessons was great and a true genre changer, transforming AVNs from simple one-handed gameplay into seriously dark drama.
On the contrary, what I want is something that makes me feel. Acting Lessons was good because it made you feel. The chapters of Badik I read gave me nothing. That is what I would call feeling empty.DIK is a completely different game, if you want to feel empty, it probably won't suit you. It's a comedy inspired by American high school movies like American Pie. The game becomes a little darker, but as the author himself claims, it won’t be as dark as AL.
That is... okeyish? I mean, some novels I have read managed to hurt just by breaking someone's heart. But i strongly doubt it is what I have in mind if the execution is anything like the first 4 chapters.The saddest thing here is that you can break girls' hearts and leave them broken, but they come to their senses over time. Except for one at the moment, who takes it the worst of all.
Oh that is interesting.. there is some catastrophic event coming then?I think so that you will get what you want. Many people overlook the evidence. The MC once said to Maya that EVERYONE deserves a second chance. What will be the MC's second chance? Why does he get a second chance.
Each branch contains its own pitfall that points to a point in the game. Here’s to a second chance for the MC.

The title of EP10 is “Calm Before the Snow”. So from EP11 onwards the drama picks up speed.Oh that is interesting.. there is some catastrophic event coming then?
Is it already written or is something expected give the title of last chapter "calm before the snow"? Although, isn't the phrase calm before the storm? So probably I am confused.
Thing is novel is quite long and time haa become a luxury. I am willing to give it a second go if quality improves. If it becomes more than it was in the first 4 chapters.
Thank you very much for your input.
