Writter Review - Tumblr Posts
The rivals will never come, let's be honest. So here I am reviewing them as a writer. Buckle up, I'll tackle all 10 of them. We'll give them all a rating and then calculate the arithmetic mean to see how "good" of a writter Pedodev is.
I will automatically take 5 points from a character rating because (except with Osana) their actions aren't shown in-game. The attitude, acts or behavior can tell us a lot about the characters, but with yansim rivals they are just "she's nice", "she's mean".
Osana: 10/10
Why? Sure, she might not be the best character, but from a writting standpoint, she is the best. She has qualities, flaws, internal and external conflict and actions, language and behavior that indirectly characterizes her.
Amai: 3/10
Just qualities no flaws. Boring. And she doesn't do shit in the story. Give characters flaws, those are sexy.
Kizana: 6/10
Gets a pass cause she's a bad character and makes sense for her to only have flaws.
Oka: 2/10
Overloved by fandom. She has like flaws but damn, she just seems uninteresting. Also, from her, I expected qualities. After all, she's a club leader.
Asu: 3/10
Litterally same story as Amai
Muja + Mida: 1/10
Do I even have to explain? Even from a writting standpoint they are dogshit
Osoro: 8/10
She gets a high pass because she has both qualities and flaws and there is some known lore to her. Probably my second favorite. Also bonus point because she has a major flaw that overshadows the good ones. I am a sucker for these characters
Hanako: 3/10
Bro, she is the ebodinment of the word 'cringe'. I'll never stop hating on her clingly possesive ass.
Megami: 4/10
What do we have? Little miss Waa Waa I have bad past but everyone likes me yet still I'm sad waa waa. Cry me a damn river. At this point, I'm just biased. Only one bonus point because she is important.
Now let's do a little calculation
(10+3+6+2+3+1+1+8+3+4)รท10= 4.1
If you are going to make a video game with lots of characters, try to make them compelling
