It just all makes for a shallow game and an increasingly boring story. I just tried to do another playthru so that I could explore some content. I didn't make it all the way through ep4, I just got bored and quit.
It
is a pretty shallow game.
It's just a slice of life story of a big dicked dude starting out at college.
Compared to stories like CoBD, What a Legend, Rebirth and so on, games that are heavily story driven, BaDIK's story is very light and has amost no driving force. It's really just about about the characters, and mostly about having fun. The conflict is there to stop it from being one big long fuck fest, but at its heart it's a college sex comedy.
Most college/school comedies that come to mind are:
- The guy(s) trying to get the girls - check
- Warring frats - check
- Dickhead dean - check
- Competing schools - probably not gonna happen
Regarding getting bored from the replay, it just comes down to personal preference. I enjoy the character interactions and have replayed the game entirely a few times. Compared to story heavy games, I find they bog down on a replay if you already know the story (I restarted CoBD and never even reached the new content).
so the most important cycle of the second season is officially a joke, and it's all good? it's all part of the plan?
but from now on there will be a more serious twist and if it won't be in the third season it will be in the fourth and if it won't be in the fourth it will be in the prologue and if it won't be in the prologue it will be in our fan story. trust me it will be!!!
there is nothing wrong with comic moments in the story, but not the lintel of a season and the pivotal moment of one of the 5 LI, which came out very badly pushing all of us players to try to forget what she did for 3 chapters out of 4 ...
for now BADIK has had two important moments, that catalyze almost completely the seasons in which they occur, both between development (Jill) and conclusion (M+J) are among the least appreciated / most criticized. it's going well, but it could have gone much better, because that DPC tent account if we drank three beers or 2 beers and a vodka at the party is great, but not enough.
i can't wait to see MC run away in tears when Zoey arrives
p.s. i quite agree that we don't need an antagonist
by the way all those listed are mainly antagonists of other characters, they become MC only rebound
Quinn is antagonist of Maya and Sage
Chad of Sage
Jill's Tybalt
Burke of Hots and maybe will become one of Maya
etc
etc
The game is a comedy, often the events are bordering on ridiculous (a lot of Derek's hijinks), so while the drama is to be taken somewhat seriously, I don't think it's meant to be all that stressful.
People are constantly panicking that the college is gonna burn down and the mc will only be able to save 1 our of the 20+ girls, but this game really isn't headed in that direction.
It's fun to theorise so many things as the game has heaps of open ended details that are slowly being closed, but it's pretty safe to say that none of it matters.
Of all the drama, Maya's oppressive father is probably the biggest issue. In real life, this would be a source of significant depression for Maya, and as a friend of Maya's, the mc would be quite sympathetic.
In real life, all the other drama can typically be ignored:
- The mc pretty much ignored Tybalt's threat and kept seeing Jill anyway,
- The jocks are no big drama for the mc, he's put them in their place a number of times (I'm not convinced they trashed the DIK's mansion),
- Burke poses no issue towards the mc,
- Quinn is either the mc's friend or she just ignores him; and
- At the moment, Vinny is nothing.
So basically it's just a fun ride. DPC gave his disclaimer at the beginning because, depending on your personal experience, some delicate subjects are breached, but, contrary to popular belief, I don't think he's planning to destroy the players' souls.
