I'm pretty sure that I exposed the fact that your complaints are fixated on James. You feel the need to inflate that with hyperbole. People do that when they at least on some level realise that their arguments are insufficient.

We can say that James will appear at some point. It would be anti-climactic if he didn't. The characters however can't expect this. To them James being alive is a big "what if". There are more pressing matters to consider.

MC turning up in her life started the process of Bella moving on. This process will not be instantaneous. We are shown multiple times how Bella worries about being unfaithful. We are also shown her to be a very private person. It is to be expected that she will not easily voice her worries and MC is smart not to press her on that.

We do know that Bella and James met in college. We don't know how their relationship progressed or when they got married, but they might have had as much as 15 years of memories before he disappeared. Moving on from that takes time.

MC and Bella are definitely due a long discussion about James, but they have naturally been distracted by the Jill situation. And now Maya's situation is another distraction. Helping Sage deal with her parents' divorce will be yet another distraction. However, distracting as they are the subjects of family and marriage are bound to spark thoughts in both of them. It's just a shame that when one of them finally says: "We need to talk" James turns up within minutes.

If Bella goes to meet Neil there are certainly possibilities for progress with the "What about James" elephant. However, Neil might also choose not to press her on the matter.

We should also remember that while we have speculated for years, the characters only met three months ago. It is not realistic to expect immense progress.
If James returns & you're not on Bella's path, would this be considered NTR? Bella is married to him, but he is a man.

• Is Bella married or a widow?
• If Bella is married, where is her husband?
• Does Bella consider herself a single woman after almost 3 years since her husband disappeared?
• If Bella still considers herself a married woman, why does she want to try something with the MC?
• Is she looking for something serious or casual since her husband may still be alive?
• Does the reason she wears a ring mean that regardless of how she feels about the MC, she is waiting for James to come back so she can resume her marriage?
• Is she psychologically prepared to move forward and have a new romance with the MC?
• How much does she want their relationship to work? Is she willing to have her career and reputation ruined because of it?

Thousands of questions could be asked, but Bella only mentioned the handbook and Jill as the main problems... What a joke! Even the MC the next morning recognizes that they did not address all the topics necessary to move forward with a relationship.

No complications, no NTR, it's all just been blown out of proportion really. The script for James' return goes like this:

Bella: "Hi Fuckface, this is James, my ex husband. I used to be all neurotic and weird about our split, and my hysterics even caused you to go into an exposition-styled monologue back when we were making out in the library that time, but really it's no big deal. We both cheated on each other, separated and now he's come back to tidy up a few loose ends."​
MC: "Oh, hi James, pleasure to meet you. So it's all good right, me banging your ex-wife and all that?"​
James: "Hi Fuckface, the pleasure is all mine, and no, no problem at all you sticking it to the little woman. She's a wild one in the sack though isn't she? No, no, you enjoy her my boy. Actually I'm just here to finalize our divorce, we've been separated long enough now, there should be nothing to feel awkward about.​
MC: "Whew, glad that was all handled amicably. I was worried there might be some scary secret between you both that was going to bite me in the ass!"​
James: "Haha! No, we're all rational consenting adults here. Oh Bella,you've locked the room. I thought it was my turn to take little Jimmy's remains to stay with me for a few years..."​

MC: ":eek:"​

Now I get your point. My complaints are focused on James since in my eyes he is the biggest problem. As for my use of hyperbole, English is not my native language and culturally the people of my country make excessive use of hyperbole. I apologize if I expressed myself in a harsh or incorrect manner.

I mentioned it earlier. In my opinion it's not NTR even if MC is on Bella's route. Bella and MC's "relationship" up until EP.10 doesn't even make sense. MC is nothing more than Bella's lover at this point in the storyline. In other words, Bella is in a romantic relationship with her missing husband and not with MC. MC is the one who is cuckolding James and not the other way around. How is James' return NTR (from MC's perspective) if James is the one in a romantic relationship with Bella?

There is already plenty of netorare in this VN. Remember, according to tags this is a multi protagonist story, the female protagonist Zoey is netorared multiple times by her LI (and ex boyfriend) and she's denied sex. She's just a total cuck loser. This game is like the biggest netorare novel ever conceived. You're all into it, just cut the hypocrisy and enjoy your cuckold persona.

If hypothetically James returns and continues his relationship with Bella, while the MC is on her route, it is NTR both with current
1739799159411.png and the new(tm) tags.
1739799300283.png Nor, would it matter since it would effectively have the same narrative reason to exist in the story and evoke the same type of emotions as 'proper' NTR regardless of any site's definition. Technicalities and loopholes change nothing and not even DPC would get away with no backlash.

It will never happen, so I don't know why even bring the discussion there, especially with that username.

In the event of James' return I thought the game would force a breakup between Bella and MC. If James returns and Bella and MC stay together then yes it is NTR as you mentioned. And I didn't bring anything, I just answered the little fella who asked about it. :ROFLMAO:

I personally have no issue with LIs being in relationships that don't include the MC. I know unless the novel is specifically focused on NTR, LIs being in a heterosexual relationship is a big issue with people.

For me I don't think if James returns there's any chance he gets back with Bella. I'm sure DPC will tell this story his way, but I think that a LI getting into a relationship with another man is very controversial. And I would suspect he would turn off a lot of his Patreon supporters.

Not only very controversial, but unnecessary. BaDIK tells the story from the MC's point of view (a possible diary?), it adds nothing but gratuitous hate.

Here you go guys. Every save, for every route, for Seasons 1, 2, and the current state of Season 3 (Episode 10 or 0.10.1). NO mods. Mini games turned ON. All scenes unlocked. All special renders found. All 2D Art purchased/unlocked. All upgrades such as Brawler Skills/Derek Cheats/Magnar Bonuses/Picture Frames and Wallet Quantity unlocked for all routes all the way up to Season 2; with the exception of DIK Hots and Sides route (Magnar Bonuses still remaining). Mansion Repair Completed for all routes. Aiming for similar completion with the new Mini-Games such as Fish Tank/New Cheats and Bonuses etc for Season 3. Rank "S" for current Party Planning Mini Game, for all routes. I used "Stevan" as MC's first name, "Pena" for MC's last name and "SexyMexican98" for my Swyper/Rooster tag. You can change those with the phone in game as well as Music Favorites/PetNames/Ringtones/Wallpapers with the exception of MC's last name, you'll have to play episode 9 again in order to change it as of now. Each folder contains saves for the start of each episode so don't get confused with the "Episode 11 start" saves, there is no Episode 11 yet, just "End of Episode 10" saves. All save files contain the following routes.

You can't, you have to choose which Main girl you are going to be with (or 2 in the case of Josy/Maya), or choose to be alone (fucking side girls).

If you try to import a save with more than 1 main girl open. The game will 100% shit itself and stop working.

I know they're married similarly as Jade is/was. But Jade is at the moment a side girl. I know there's zero chance you'd see anything, but I think the idea of James reconciling with a single Bella would cause issues.

Shit, I'm sorry man. I meant it in a cute and friendly way. Seriously, I'm really sorry. :confused:
Thank you for apologizing.

James has to come back, otherwise the whole mystery would make very little sense. but it won't be easy at all, and DPC's lack of empathy doesn't make me particularly optimistic.

if James had actually been held against his will while doing something important, something ‘noble’ then Bella's character would come out with broken bones, there would be so much cheap drama (James desperate, Bella desperate, MC desperate...)

solutions to avoid this situation are possible (James deserter making a life for himself on the beaches of Phuket..) we'll see what happens in 2000never

So, I thought I'd try something, but it's not going as I expected.
In the past, I would go into some of these kinds of games and edit the text a bit here and there, to suit my particular tastes (for example, I don't much enjoy dirty talk, so I usually tweak such dialog to be a bit less... unpleasant). However, in the past it's only been HTML games, and those were easily done. Not so for Renpy games.

So, I found out about UnRen, and I tried to use that. The instructions said to put it in the folder with the game's .exe file, and run it... which I did. I used options 1-6 in the list (Extract RPA, Decompile RPYC, enable console, quicksave, quickload, enable skipping and enable rollback).

After that, I don't know what to edit.

I went into Game/Scripts/Episode 9 (and other similar folders) and opened update9.rpyc with Notepad. It took some time to open, and when it did, was completely unitelligible, all chinese kanji. This is how every file I try to open looks. I'm kind of stuck.

I must be missing something, anyone able to offer me some guidance?
You have to use UnRen to unpack the .rpa files and use UnRen to decompile the .rpyc files. By doing this, you'll get the .rpy files. Then, download Notepad++ or another text editor, open any .rpy file you prefer, and edit whatever you want. If you mess with something you don’t understand, the game will crash, but making mistakes is part of learning. Good luck!

We might not have NTR in BaD (yet), but DPC has done it before that someone else gets one of the LI's in the end (as long as you don't end with her).

It could be that besides a nice ending to the story, he also did that to see how his playerbase handles with LI's getting other people, and that he's going to use BaD to push those boundaries a bit further.

Will DPC repeat the same scene of Josy knocking on Maya's door in EP.3 when they make James' return? MC will develop a phobia of doors if that happens. :KEK:

Since there is a possibility that James won't have a big role outside of Bella's route, his return could be very anticlimactic and not live up to expectations at all.
