Originally posted by Minneyar:So how do you think somebody whose race has been enslaved and persecuted for hundreds of years, and specifically somebody who's entire family was hunted down and killed, should feel about their oppressors? It is similar to even real life where in 3rd world countries atrocious things happen while us lucky ones continue our life and complain when even just minor stuff occurs as if we have it so bad while stating we recognize those other people have it bad but in actuality we do not truly recognize what they're going through and are extremely emotionally unattached, unconcerned, and lacking in genuine empathy. The stuff gets explained later on so it helps the player better accept and grasp it, but even then there is clearly a disconnect with the player. We saw the same thing with Tidus being ripped from his home, life, family, and the situations he was placed into FFX yet quite a lot of people did not understand his personality for squat. It practically has to be totally shoved down their throat after being waived in their face to get even a tiny bit of recognition. The issue with the writing is probably they don't make the player so forcibly harshly aware of just how bad it is that most gamers cannot empathize properly with the situation, despite how clearly horrible it is. Despite this, he remains rather open minded and while he can on occasion jump as Renans when emotionally charged he is really accommodating such as with Shionne and others, later. We're talking hundreds of years of your history being destroyed, being killed at a soldiers whim, harsh physical labor and physical/mental abuse to the extent most don't even dare to consider the thought of standing up against soldiers for theirs or other's sake, and the whole this is basiaclly how life should be situation.
She does gradually improve, with some trip ups now and then, over time though as a person would rather than instantly becoming not prejudiced so I would say, overall, her writing is fairly decent.Īlphen, like many others, only has memories of extremely harsh slave treatment in Calagia, which was especially harsh.
It is a bit annoying, initially, as you don't know why she is so extremely spiteful and prejudiced but there is a reasonable explanation you find out later on. In fact, it would be almost totally absurd she didn't have some prejudice. Rinwell's entire family bloodline was slaugthered and wiped out, along with her magical bloodline aside form her, by the renans so of course she talks about how bad they are.
