@silent-of-spirit replied to your post āConfession time? I saw the Reyes thing coming from a mile away.ā
Personally I feel that his romance is like, REALLY RUSHED. I don't mean rushed as in writing, but rushed as in if you do all of the Kadara stuff one right after the other, it is just like bing bang boom the romance is done. Cool character, but I'm not a fan of the romance. I'll stick with my aliens. (As I said, personal opinion. Your mileage may vary.)
True. Iāve paced the Kadara part because I always pace the romances. But it does seem really fast toĀ āgetā.
Also, talking about MY impressions: maybe if he had a bigger part, I wouldāve liked Reyes more, and cared more about him and his reveal. I already had a pretty good notion of who he was almost from the start, but if at least the game tried to make me develop stronger bonds, I wouldāve felt more inclined to let him rule.
As it is, it feels like his tricking Sloane was cheap, and it makes me annoyed at him. And I donāt even likeĀ Sloane (on the contrary). And I didnāt care for the wholeĀ āoh look at you, loving the bad boy~ bad taste in men blablaā. Hm. Nah. Not doing it for me.
An addendum: (Ultimately, my problem is Reyes is that I donāt know who he is. I know what kind of snake Sloane is, and I know who Iām dealing with. Reyes feels like an interrogationĀ mark who can and will stab Ryder in the back at the first opportunity.Ā
And if he ever fucks up, itās on Ryder. Itās 100% on Ryder. If he turns up to be horrible, she made a decision based on a guy she had literally one kiss with???? Like. YYYYEEEAAAH no.
He is interesting though, and I think what I lack is the emotional bond. As you said, itās too rushed, and how am I supposed to overlook what he did just because there was some expensive alcohol involved? But if there was more, if Reyes had worked to make Ryder fall in love, then it wouldāve been different.)
I donāt know. I need to make a choice, but Iām basically trying to decide for about forty minutes, and that says more about how I feel about Reyes than how I feel about Sloane (whom I despise).
