I thought this too, but why can`t bada kill the killers?
I thought similar to this too, but why can`t Bada kill the killers like the others if that`s the case?
Oh like he had amnesia but still has the skills
Ok but we also have to consider how exactly are they playing this game? Is it virtual reality? Does time change during gameplay compared to the “real world”? There seems to be so many hazards surrounding this game. Players can’t get out until they complete it, and from what we know, they have been here for ages. Months maybe.
Crazy theory, what if they are the developers of the game? OR maybe Bada is and tried to get them out of the game at the beginning? Does this explain how he knows so much, and maybe he’s not able to kill the killer because his in-game avatar was never supposed to go as far as the tunnel?
Hear me out: I’ve been agreeing with the NPC theories for a long time, but bc of what was revealed in this chapter, I’m starting to think otherwise. It’s too easy to point and say that Bada is an NPC - there’s no plot twist here bc we somewhat expected it, and it seems like everything was leading up to this.
I think Bada is a player trapped in the game from before this session with Doha and the rest; I think he beat the game, but couldn’t escape it for one reason or another. That’s why he’s so good at this game - it’s bc he’s actually human and played it before (but can’t remember anything).
Doha and the glasses dude both were shocked by how good Doha was - why would an NPC be good at playing the game?? Personally I think NPCs should be coded to only do their tasks/roles, so why is Bada capable of such complex thought, critical thinking, and creativity (those hairstyles!!)?
He likely got his tape removed/game files deleted or overwritten from the system, which is why Doha and the rest were able to play. But this makes Bada a ‘floater’ in the game - he’s already beaten the game/had his files deleted/overwitten, so he no longer is considered a player by the game, which is why he can’t kill the killer. There’s def flaws to this (like why can he still save stuff but can’t kill the killer??), but I think I’m cooking?? And maybe some part of him recognized the danger of the game when he was an ‘NPC’, which is why he warned characters in the beginning - to prevent them from ever starting this shitty game in the first place.
