It’s not a question of there being “evidence” for her as a shallow character, but it’s just what I, and arguably some others, think. It’s a discussion, and the whole purpose of it is to discuss our opinions. My opinion, as stated above, is that none of what she does is interesting, and she’s ultimately a Mary Sue. Reporting my reply on the grounds of it being the opposite to yours is not appropriate.
Now, it’s time to return to the original topic of this post: who’s everyone’s favourite newcomer in Red Dead Redemption 2?
Micah Bell was more of a "Main feature" out of these characters...so I'm going with Micah.
I mean yeah Sadie is a well written character but she is just way to impulsive. The only thing that sets her apart from being a fucking psychopath is that she is at least loyal.
My choice is Hosea
@Wagwan piffting23 so you would prefer a rat, cheat, hell raising, no self control, liar and woman and probably child killer than a beautiful, truful, loyal, badass and lovable character. AANSWER ME THAT. HUH.
Firstly, no need for that tone. Discussions are to be had in a civil manner; repeatedly failing to conduct yourself in the proper way may eventually result in a block.
To answer your question: It’s not as simple as that, but yes, I do. Using that logic, any villain or character has done anything bad would be a terrible character in general. Such an evaluation method does not account for villains with good personalities (such as Micah, imo), good interactions, good character development and so on. Micah’s character is very interesting to me: his mysterious past yet great experience, his excellent prowess with firearms, his interactions with others and relationship with Arthur and Dutch, his Darwinistic philosophy, and various other things. Micah is undeniably evil, but this doesn’t stop him from being a good, interesting and well-written character.
In comparison, Sadie seems much more shallow to me. She doesn’t have a philosophy, her pursuit of O’Driscolls is justified but uninteresting (not to mention the fact that she usually puts others in danger while doing so and usually screams with cringeworthy and unnecessary rage); she does not seem “badass” to me, just vindictive. Her past is relatively shallow, her interactions with other characters are not very interesting (meanwhile Micah has some hilarious ones - especially with the female characters), she’s also entitled and arrogant, in addition to contradicting the game’s motto of revenge being a fool’s game.
So yes, Micah may be a villain, but he’s a much better character from my point of view.
okay maybe i was being a little bit angry. I know everyone has the right to have their own opinion
People like different things about different characters. What I like about Micah may not be the same as what you might look for in a character. What you like about Sadie may not be what I would look for in a character.
I apologise
Everyone has there own opinion...
I think micah's a great character, maybe not his morals, but nevertheless..
What do you think?
