mornelithe said: What they chose to do with them, stop ascribing all writing to males. That's sexist. And, you know, I hate to break it to you, but not every woman (or man) stands up to their abuser. Many of them do not. It's a very believable character flaw, one exhibited by many people. Hey while we're at it, let's have Sephiroth not be a psychopath, maybe Shinra can be a nice company, with a nice President...oh wait, those are all guys, they're supposed to be bad. Sorry I forgot how this works. |
My bad, I'm sorry. It was a slip back there, I'll try not to make the same mistake again.
As for the abusing thing, that's true, but hence the more reason to make such change in this game. Think about it. Final Fantasy is a very well-known game (franchise) outside the gaming circle. So imagine that in this remake, Shera actually does stand against the abusing partner. Word of mouth goes around. Doesn't that send a powerful message? The fact that you can actually face your abusive partner and put a stop to it? It would actually encourage people to take action in the real world. It's a win/win situation.
If you'd like to have a different Sephiroth or have Shinra as a nice company in the Remake, write about it. You're a fan, would you like those changes? Ask for them. I'd actually support you, you know. You're looking at this whole opinion from the author as if you were excluded or offended, but you can (and should) demand for change into the final product if you feel like it. Shinra as a nice company would give a nice twist, to be honest.
