(Anonymous) 2022-07-30 01:36 am (UTC)(link)He's cold and a bit too ruthless for my taste but usually his solutions make sense. At least more than Roland's who would bend the knee to Hyzante and allow slavery to happen, which is the worst case scenario in my book. And thing is I usually disagree with Benedict because that's not the way I work, but that doesn't mean that his opinions are immoral or assholish. He probably wants the best for Nozeria as long as Serenoa's House is protected. That doesn't make him an asshole.
I got the golden ending on my first try so lucky me, I guess, but if I hadn't I would have gone with Benedict's solution rather than Frederica's - even though hers is clearly the most moral one - because I really wanted to get rid of Hyzante. I hate all forms of organised religion, especially in video games when it tends to be depicted as a very good way of controlling and enslaving people (in Dragon Age, for instance), so I kinda assumed that taking care of Hyzante was the first step before handling the whole slavery disaster.
On the other hand, I thought that Frederica was too much concerned about her people and wasn't looking at the bigger picture. Revolting would not have saved the Roselles from Hyzante as long as the empire was not utterly destroyed.
So I guess I have a lot of opinions about this game? Then again I really enjoyed Triangle Strategy for the gameplay but I do think that the plot and characters were a bit underwhelming. I love politics in video games, I swear, but even the slavery part didn't piss me off as much as in Dragon Age (I usually play a Dalish mage so yeah) so I wasn't really feeling it, if you know what I mean? Plus I never bought the whole romance between Serenoa (an actual Gary Stu if you ask me) and Frederica. The only characters I liked were Anna, Avlora, and Gustadolph in a nice villain kinda way.
