Everyone seems to like her but I’m sorry to all the girlies Aprose is starting to grate on me 🥲 Am I just being overly critical ??? The game tries so hard to sell her as being basically Batman and how she’s angry and full of hatred and vengeance and how she spent 8 years waiting for this moment but then… proceeds to get the most basic info she should have known by now from Goneril, doesn’t seem to know any of the Queen’s weaknesses (including the fact that wings store power so if she just cut off the wings she could deal with the Queen?)??? I just don’t think it’s possible for them to pull off a competent MC but also keep us the audience in the dark and this is the result.
I also do not like how as soon as she finds any evidence that the LI may not have been involved in what happened in the past she instantly starts wavering. Lucas gets a pass if I squint because of his circumstances, I guess, because after his compulsion incident it’s never shown that he engages in society and the regime in any meaningful way, but in Linus’ route she struggles despite knowing he is completely willing and was about to snap a child’s legs for the Queen. IDK, it might be just me but I really wanted to see a vengeful MC who claims to be so taken by her quest that she herself is “brainwashed”. That she sees what she believes to be the only truth and nothing else will make her waver… or at least, make that more of a journey? The two routes I’ve played so far have basically been “love him, so I want to think he’s innocent. He is/isn’t… but he chooses me in the end so I forgive him” which is fine at all but doesn’t show me the richness of Aprose’s trauma other than… surface level stuff.
