Even worse, the MC doesn't even tell Maya exactly what Quinn's operation is, just that she "uses them to earn money". It's kind of a cheap way to keep her in the dark and make players worry about Maya's possible future. The whole debate on the thread about whether or not she could be eased into the "restaurant" business could've been avoided if the MC just straight up told her Quinn intends to make her a prostitute.
Probably been brought up in that debate, but I wasn't around for that. Kinda understandable though because how would that conversation go?
MC: Beware Quinn, she's trying to turn you into a hooker.
Maya: OMG! How do you know that?
MC: Ummmm.....
Given that the MC is trying to bang Maya, it makes sense.
Here comes the fanboy/shill that can't accept any negative criticism on his beloved VN. Steam forums v2.
I clearly liked episodes 1, 2 and 3, found 4 mediocre (overdramatic lesbo drama was a huge culprit for it) but finished it within a week or so; it was episode 5 that sucked hard for me, and to be honest it would be better if I could state my opinion without a fanboy telling me to "stfu or gtfo". It is certainly better than the constant circle jerking, blind adoration and waifu wars you get going in this thread every single day.
Also, I didn't ask anyone to keep quiet. This is a VN, how hard is it for people to use the spoiler tag when discussing story details? You literally just need to click one button... I guess I'll just go back to ignoring this thread as I've done for a while now and leave you guys to your waifu infighting and fanfic.
P.S. If the game wasn't for me, I wouldn't have bothered to go through it for 5 episodes and I certainly wouldn't have bothered to criticize what I didn't like, not when this thread has already a certain reputation.
Whoa, slow down. First off it's pretty normal that you are gonna encounter some resistance if you come to a thread full of fans of a game to criticize it. You should expect that and be prepared for it. Secondly, there are plenty of people here who have criticized the game for similar reasons and had plenty of reasoned debate about it. I literally responded to your post agreeing that Episode 5 was a weaker offering, but you completely ignored that.
After Episode 4 this thread was absolutely full of people criticizing or straight up hating on the game due to the "lesbo drama" as you put it. I personally didn't like the way Episode 4 went down and Episode 5 was a bit of a let down too, and was very vocal about it. So if you actually knew the history of this thread you'd know there's been plenty of contentious discussions in the past. Having said that, BADIK is still far and away the best VN out there as evidence by the ridiculous amount of discussion this thread has garnered.
Lastly, you expecting people to spoiler tag their posts 3 months after the game came out is quite frankly just entitled. Spoiler tags make reading the thread quite a chore compared to having all the discussion out in the open. But yeah based on your comments, the game might be for you, but I don't think this thread is.
