What Zero Could've Been

[aveyond-dreams]

I don't think that Y'shtola with the combination of her lackluster appearence and personality gives her the same sort of pass that someone like Yotsuyu or Bayonetta gets when it comes to how they treat men. If someone is a 3, they shouldn't be treating guys like Magnai who I'll just say are 7s or 8 as if they were a 2. Also, Runar deserved someone better who was more emotionally receptive and less arrogant, especially given his warm nature.


This isn't even controversial, it's how the world works. Bad attitude, nothing going on with her looks, topped off with the Mary Sue thing and I am bewildered as to why I'm supposed to find this character likeable or why she of all people gets to be this game's postergirl.

yshtola is a little bland as a character, but you couldn’t have written this in a less /niceguys way?

This is such a shallow take, I just stepped in it and my feet stayed dry.

Beauty is subjective and while you might think someone is a 3, someone might think they are a 10. And vice versa. It's how people you think are ugly manage to find partners. Because they've found someone who finds them attractive.

A person's personality and their appearance are completely separate things, regardless of how beautiful they are. Anyone of any beauty can be sassy to men who flirt with them.

That's true, but the combination Y'shtola has going on makes her a character whose presence I can only barely tolerate. It's like as if she was a librarian in the game making light of other people, just really offputting and not what people look for in heroines.

"Women can only sass men if I think they're hot, otherwise they should know their place and shut up."



The fact that you think Magnai's horse-faced goober ass is a 7 or 8 speaks volumes. This is the same guy who flips out every time a tiny female challenges his masculinity and is constantly rejected by every woman he meets.

Aveyond, why don't you leave it up to us females to decide how we behave and look and interact with the world? We don't need your help.

Agreed 100% on this. I'm my own person. I don't need a man to tell me how to act, look and speak.

It's like a lot of people say Zero has just been introduced and they're slowly working on fleshing her out. I'd rather them do that then just throw it all in my face at once.
