What a weird article.
They have varied characters because different people like different things. "Characters you don't enjoy" aren't and shouldn't be a design goal. That's idiotic.
That’s what the writer is saying, though? She’s saying it’s good for games to have characters some people consider “bad,” because what’s “bad” Is different for everyone. It means a game has a well-rounded cast of characters.
No, it's not even close.
He's claiming being "bad" has inherent value. It's a terrible, incoherent article presenting an absurdly stupid opinion.
“Bad” does have inherent value because one person’s “bad” Is another person’s “awesome.”
I think Gale is “bad” as she’s defining it because he’s boring and his squishy ass kept getting curb-stomped when I tried to use him. I also hate the way he tries to romance you and the incel vibes I got of him. But go on tumblr and folks just adore him and his romance. What makes him “bad” to me is a selling point to others. That’s what I think the writer is trying to say.
No. That's entirely nonsensical.
You're looking for substance that doesn't exist. There isn't a shred of merit anywhere in that article.
Ok bro. I’ve had basically seven shots of gin and am drink to argue. You enjoy your win on this point or whatever; I’m drunk whee
It sounds like you just didn't know how to play a wizard. Gale is one of the most powerful companions in the game.
