My theory is, Doha is a player, who doesn't know he's a player. What I mean is that Dreadful Night is a game where NPC Bada has knowledge of the game and only when interacting with him can the player advance through the game.
Think about it, since Doha is the only one able (to our knowledge) capable of killing the killer, he is the player. But why can't he remember anything before Bada told him that they are inside a game and all of that?
Bada is an NPC (I think Bada said he can't remember anything before the whole game thing) whose settings and background story is knowing Dreadful Night is a game and who knows information about the game and that has been trying to scape from the game.
The whole scenario might be that only when interacting in the correct way with the correct NPC, can the player advance.
The player has to have the restrictions of repeating the game endlessly without knowing until they can get information from NPC Bada Lee, then that's when the true Dreadful Night starts.
right?? i was so confused why doha can only kill the killer. that must mean that bada is an npc or he's also a player and doha is the developer? man im so investeeed
Omg this makes sense too, it’s a really good theory! I didn’t even think about the fact that only Doha can kill the killer, and Bada can’t. I simply forgot cause of the whole sex thing But yeah, were there instances where the other came close to killing the killer as well? I don’t remember anything, but I do remember hyungshin interacting with the killer before, when he came out of the shower.
If your theory’s correct, then I’m very confused by Doha’s behavior pre-gaining-consciousness. His character and personality seemed so different post clarity, because he was known to be as a “nice guy” or the “rational one,” did he perhaps changed because he found out that he was in a game, and that he can bend the rules a little?
It’s all so very confusing god damn.
or maybe he just pretend to not know anything and play nice until he met the correct npc and drop the whole act? kinda forgot the storyline tbh lol
Hi!!! Omg can you make a different post about your theory?? I feel like it's such a good one that everyone can discuss about :)) Plus, I wanted to add something to it. Reading yours made me add a theory of my own to it!!
If it's alright with you and all (ノ≧∇≦)ノ
Please think about it!! Thank you!! If you do, I'll try my best to search and look for your comment!!! Or you can tag me (if that's possible) in your post. Thank you!!
(ノ≧∇≦)ノ♡
I just posted it!
Thank you so much!!! I found your post and followed it! Will reply to your post once I'm able to arrange my theory. Just rereading the chapters currently (⌒▽⌒)
I’m pretty sure we can trust doha, but I honestly don’t understand his motives and whatnots. My theory is, the reason why Hyungshin forgot about the previous session was because him and the other npc managed to escape, and Doha’s preventing Bada from doing anything that makes Bada forget about him? Or I think he’s preventing Bada from going back to the “real world” because he doesn’t want them to separate. Imo, it’s more likely that Bada is an original player in the game as well that just gained consciousness, but I still honestly don’t know.
