      I heard the writing was bad (and sadly, I couldn't get the demo to run on my PC to form my own opinions), but this already has more gaping plot holes than the entire rest of Square Enix's games, Kingdom Hearts spin-off games included!!
      Like I've mentioned before when MoistKritical played this, it's like they couldn't decide whether Frey was a poor black child that needed to escape to a better world or a spoiled rich girl that needed to be humbled when she got isekai'd into another world, so they just went with...both...as if those two character archetypes were in any way compatible with each other...

      @@JeffreyThrash I didn't even watch his playthrough of this, but yeah like the sheer amount of conflict between what she's implying and what we're seeing is insane, lmao.
      I have to wonder if the core idea behind the game was that she was homeless, squatting, and embroiled in gang activity but for the sake of "equality"/cancel culture due to her being dark-skinned or something, the suits forced the devs to make her seem more "likable" and "relatable" by giving her designer clothes, an education, a "likable personality", and an "abandoned apartment" complete with christmas lights like what every girl has in their bedrooms, designer shoes, full furniture and like half the payout from a bank heist.

    They could have had it where she put the bag in a different room before the fire, or the money could've already been on fire, seriously anything would've felt more logical than just the protagonist standing next to the bagging taking time to say how she doesn't have time to pick it up.

      to be unreasonably fair to the writers, I've heard a few times that the devs for whatever reason (probably time/cost constraints) basically scrapped the entire original story. But that doesn't really affect the dialog, does it? Even if we got to see "their true vision" it still would've been quippy, self referential, marvel comic tier dialog that insults the audience's intelligence every chance it gets. It'd be one thing if characterization didn't make sense, if the plot didn't make sense, but Frey and Cuff at least spoke like normal people. I mean Cuff is supposed to be a kind of arch angel summoned to exact revenge, but he talks like a teenage fanfiction writer's Dr. Who self insert character. And Frey is just insufferably self absorbed ONTOP of being a fucking Chosen One mary sue.

    Judging by Square Enix past cynical behaviour, the bad writing probably comes from:
    1) Following a story structure the more mechanically and organically as possible, to the point it becomes detrimental to the story itself and makes no sense.
    2) wanting to construct a deeply relatable character for the younger demographic based on what is cool on twitter.
    Kamala Khan was written in the Avengers to be a proxy of the player (the ultimate Marvel movie fan, so a cool poc Redditor with superpowers who write fanfic and can hack Tony stark).
    This is aimed at Twitter demographic. Poor, can't afford rent, can afford luxury clothes, dress in cool clothing, has a cat, the cat is female but has a male name, lives in New York and new York is a cool city according to non-americans, is black, was in a gang, has Tumblr speech, etc.
    This is less "oh the writers are so dumb" and more "oh the writers are actual psychopaths". Like it is horrible the more you think about it, it is like a Frankenstein monster of trending concepts.

      That's the fun thing, it basically is.
