How do you feel about the idea that some have voiced that now that this ultrasafe depiction has happened (and suffered because of it), this gives other creators permission and guide posts to do something more creatively risky?
I mean, that's the hope, I guess. I say in my piece that depictions like this may be a necessary starting point but I hope that's all they are.
Reminds me of a story I read about a very woke cis white male writer who created the most inoffensive and cautious cis white male protagonist, and even woke audiences hated the character. People find meek characters like that almost repulsive. Probably same with "weak" stories.
Yeah I mean, I think Tyler had potential. As I say in my piece, the few scenes that give him a chance to be more of a person and less of a cog in the machinery of the plot work for me, but they're let down by a game that doesn't support them better or explore his humanity more.
