How is BaDIK in a fictional country? We know Zoey took a train to San Diego and one of the Swyper girls is from New York?

I'm beginning to think a vast majority of you people only look at the pictures. Which makes it even harder to explain how you end up Maya fans.

Yes they are. We assume laws are like in any developed country. I'm sure we all think rape and burglary is illegal and punished in BaDIK, for example. There may be small differences, an american will see some things different from an european so sometimes context is needed.

In a realistic setting like BaDIK you need extra context when something extraordinary happens (like a flying unicorn), you have to explain it right to get suspension of disbelief, otherwise you'll think "no way".

The problem with the loan it's that is badly explained because using a loan to blackmail Maya is a little bit convoluted, most people don't know/don't understand how to do that/don't know if it's possible.

I can accept the loan as an effective blackmail device but that doesn't mean you have to dismiss lawyers and professional help, because BaDik is a realistic world. That may very well be a solution, we don't know what is going to happen.

There is not two kinds of narratives for wich one has unicorns and the other is a copy of reality. There are hundreds of different tipes of narratives. Take the simpsons, sometimes goes fantastic, true, but most of time they don't. Yet the main premise of the show goes around the security supervisor of a nuclear plant that don't know his job. That thing is not realistic, yet it works anyway. With Badik the same happens.
You want it explain at first?
Ok, here you go:

In real life Dawe will be bye bye by episode 1. This is not how the world works. And every resemblence of realism has been sacrifices from the start in exchange of... one joke.

Q&A Session - February 2021
Do you have an idea where in the world B&R is located and where characters lived before attending college?

The location is fictional, even though you can see license plates and signs from the east and west coast. As far as I can recall, I've only mentioned San Diego and New York in the game for Zoey (MCs old girlfriend) and Catrin (Swyper), but I have no intention of placing B&R on an actual map. Some gaps are best left to be filled by the player’s imagination.

You quote a line from DPC with the exact same thing I said to counter my point? Or agree with me?

A fictional city in the country of the United States of America is not a fictional country.

More like fictional reality in a known setting.

Yeah I didn't say there are two kinds of narratives or two hundred. I said its a realistic setting with real world rules so you can apply real world rules and morality and of course BaDik world will have similar laws.

That thing with Cathy is not that unrealistic, I've seen worse in High School. One guy got expelled for beating a teacher, another time the car of another teacher appeared upside down. We all have seen crazy things.

Of course things are a little more extreme with sex and violence because the game follows the tone of college movies and porn games, we're familiar with that kind of movies and games so we apply that context too and we don't find it weird when we get a handjob at the start, we're expecting lots of sex in a porn game. That doesn't mean we can break the rules at will to win an argument on the internet and assume their rules are different when needed.

That said, to me the first chapters are a little bit more crazy, then the game finds the perfect balance.

Evening folks, WOO-HOOO it's my first time checking this out awesome forum from a close friend and it's also my first time experience with particular this game in a non-sexual trend that I've myself enjoyed very much arousal with dialogue and relationship affection and humor (Yes, looking at you derek :D). I find very interesting peak activity on this thread.

I'd like to ask, and probably it might have been asked same here over many times not going to deny but whatever my search term didn't get same result or I'm doing it wrong, anyhow. Is there any difference between the full retail version and official build? Both GOG/Steam has first season, along with second one that will be released on January 6. The retail has like approximately over 20 GB while official 6-7GB. I also assume that retail version has all 2 season combined and already finished production to release? like should I'd rather play second season now rather than wait for the official release for 2 weeks? If so, Am I going to be feeling guilt trip bad for not paying developers on this? Cause the regional price where I live is quite expensive which I don't typical do over AAA games. Cheers.

She's the best. It's hard to picture a long-term relationship with any of the others. But Jill, we're already hanging out just to enjoy each other's company.

As feedback on the game, the art is really cool and nice, plot story is somewhat subjective but fine for me. Some additional transition could be better for smooth experience to closure, also more audio elements to hear out or voice if so but since this is visual novel, it's understandable. Fun how my ears got numbed from playing this game in silence haha. I'd be tempted to recommend this to a great studio to fund the project.

Those are the arguments of him and J.A.L :ROFLMAO:

When ChipLecsap only interacted with J.A.L once and he accused Chip of being a fanboy (They were talking about something about Josy) blah blah and said he was going to ignore Chip

The worst thing is that there are people who agree with them, it is like a group
