So I reread the whole story and here is to summarize some of it.
Baba says this is a game, and shows us the CD box with the games name 'Dreadful Night' written at the front. When he dies he sees a 'Game Over' screen. That got me thinking- what if its actually a person playing this game and we viewers just see it from the games perspective?
Before i dropped the theory about Baba being an NPC and Doha being conscious the whole time.
But now after rereading it I noticed something else. When the new 'DLC' opens and Baba is surprised it happen cause it has never happen before. And the house has never been in the forest before cause he has been walking around the forest countless of times.
When they enter this new house Baba mentions that it feels familiar, like he has been there before. And thats when it clicked for me.
if this is a game, which it is. You can chose to play different characters. What if Doha have been conscious before Baba got conscious? but then got reprogrammed? it would explain why Baba have some kind of recollection of being in that house, cause he might have but not as a conscious character but as a truly NPC?
What if they all have been conscious at one point?
Im sorry i really do have a more in depth theory about this, and Baba and Doha. but im just so low on energy, and find it a hard time to write it down. I hope you can get what I mean :/ sorry. Give me your theory as well.
Actually I thought the same thing if you're familiar with drowning ben from creepypasta he was similar to this in terms of video games but what if they all go back to being conscious and not just baba or doah
I believe they will all get conscious
Yeah but at different times and probably re programed in the end
Just a guess tho
yes
'One tasty little snack'
got a bunch of cuteness
and then wtf happen with the ending!?
...lets not jump to conclusion, lets hope he stops in the next chapter, lets hope some sense will be knocked into him.... （/TДT)/ please
kim dan will probaly find out about this, and then we are gonna have the BJ Alex plot.
Sounds about right
People loved the NPC comment, then what about this. Doha did NOT just gain consciousness but has been conscious all the time. and is the killer.
I think im on to something regarding this BUT i need to reread the story to be a 100& sure.
so I plan to write a comment tomorrow on my whole theory.
that could work, but how does that account for the numerous times doha died when bada played the game alone and after?
Another thing I have been thinking about is, How did they end up in this 'game'? or is this perhaps a video game to begin with? Maybe Bada is an NPC- which could be the reason why he does not remember his life before this all began? And his whole purpose is to help the other 'players' reach the end of the game?
What I mean is, what if, this is a game that 'real people' are playing where they pick a character and then Bada is an NPC? (tho personally I dont think this is the cause, but it had to be written down)
It could also be that this is a video game where all the 'players' start gaining consciousness???
Anyway is just keep coming back to how did they end up in this game?
is there only one killer that keeps respawning? or is there more than one?
WHAT IF all the killers are actually the characters that got killed and then they get 'programmed' to kill the rest (cause this is a game). But for that to happen one of them has to be the killer to begin with? which means there is a traitor among them.
gosh I Love this!! give me your thoughts and theories
It could also just be me reading to much into it XD, Maybe the author is all like 'They are trapped in a game, dont question how it happen'
Honestly I have also been wondering the same things… it’s weird that Bada just doesn’t remember who he was in the “real world”. He could really be an NPC, though idk for sure.
Hell, they could all just be AI becoming more self aware of each loop n that they’re in a game (but mistakenly assuming they’re human).
There are a few things that are bothering me, given that the most “human” action to becoming aware of this would be to turn that car around and get the fuck out of there. Maybe they did try this in a loop we haven’t seen (or I forgot lol), and they hit an invisible game boundary (aka almost definitively proof it’s a game), or otherwise were unable to leave. I just feel like a human would do this, rather than keep trying to beat the game and die over and over, regardless of being self aware or not, because they’re programmed to do so…. Idk. Perhaps Bada did all that and gave up and resolved to attempting to defeat the game as a sort of final resort, and I’d need to reread the start to double check.
There’s also the possibility that they’re not some random human beings who are trapped in a game and slowly becoming self aware, but rather that this itself is the setting of the game. Maybe Bada was always meant to remember the loops, Doha was always meant to become self aware at that moment, and the next character and the next, but that this was already part of the horror game rather than some sort of anomaly. Like some sort of “transmigrate into a game” meta horror game LMAO
Or, the concept of the “real world” could be questioned — if he doesn’t remember himself before the “game”, what *does* he remember? How does he know this is a game, and not something else? Why does he distinguish between this world and reality, if he has no (or barely any) memories of “reality”? Yeah, we have the save points and shit, but he’s gotta remember something from outside the game in order to become certain, right?
Of course we also have the possibility that he’s withholding info abt the real world from Doha bc he doesn’t trust him, therefore we only know what he’s willing to reveal to him. I mean, I’d be a bit sus of Doha too, given the fact Bada saw him kill a villager before he became self aware…
Honestly I thought that bada was a npc, who just like any other character, but like how doha saved the game, I assumed bada did the same thing accidentally, and now he remembers everything... but this seems well a bit incomplete, also I wonder, what will happen once they defeat the game
Yea, I have been thinking that as well.
So, if/when they complete the game. I think a sacrifice might have to be made (based on another persons comment). For the game to respawn, you have to die, what if a sacrifice have to be made for the game to end? Could be Bada's life - Bada finds out he is part of the game as an NPC? He has to live for eternity in the game helping other 'players'.
Or Bada finds out/they find out that they are part of a game and even if they beat the game, the game will simple restart.
Or they find a way to break the 'loop' and enters the real world.
A ending I could see possible as well is the other characters make it out except for Bada and then our ML finds a way to save Bada.
BUT I'm personally suspicious of ML, and have other theories for him.
I'm also sooo sus abt doha, is it the eyes? I was also thinking, abt the all characters becoming aware, but then won't it create a loophole sort? I mean the game starts when a character dies, if everyone is aware of this, they will, well try not to die, this means the game won't actually really start right? Is this making any sense?? I hope it does
Idk why but I'm having the wildest theory, this is soo wild, but what if, okay what if, bada was the creator of the game, and somehow got stuck in his, but since he played so many times, he has no recollection of it?? Also the other characters are based on his real life friends or atleast some of it?? I would LOVE this twist lmao, the concept of real world they are talking abt, is giving so many theory lolll
Love the theory and I think you might be on to something.
Im currently rereading it (ch 2 at the moment im replying back)
Bada tells us in ch 1 that this is a game and shows us the CD Case, and he also mentions that when he dies a game over screen appears.
what if the plot twist is actually Bada playing the game but we just see it from the games perspective.
Also regarding Doha, I think he did NOT just gain consciousness but have been conscious all the time.
Lmao, that would be soo clowning, we're losing our shit over it, when in reality is just from the pov
Ya doha is really weirdly shady lol, but ukw let's just wait and see what happens next
okay so now we have a time skip, hope our MC also had some character development
uncle? you sure its not your lil brother or something?
its baby time ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
