I’m not entirely sure if I’m going to be able to upload anything on time for the Heart & Soul series’ anniversary, but I had this in the files!

What is Sir Arthur like in your headcanons? Is he a good leader or a respected one?

"people always knew sir arthur had a lot of potential--probably the most out of all of the generals--but that didn't mean news that he was to be the next leader didn't come as a bit of a surprise to everyone. usually that position went to the most senior general after the leader. regardless, it seemed the former leader saw something in him, and so he tentatively, but resolutely, stepped into his new role after the former leaders death with the eyes of the universe on him

all means considered, he acted exactly how a leader should act. he planned carefully and gave orders precisely, maintained a professional appearance at all times, and took on the work of managing the army without complaint. but the shoes he had to fill were large--the criticism only amplified by him being the personal choice of the previous leader for reasons that could only be speculated on, as she had never publicly disclosed. any great achievements of arthur's only stood to be compared to the person whose footsteps he followed."

maybe i have low standards but i don't get how lots of people go "well kirby series doesn't have too much characterization for it's cast tbh"

are we even playing the same franchise?

would i like more dialogue? yeah, sure, but personality can be deciphered from other aspects of games. through their idle animations. their combat movesets. their actions during the story. their interactions with each other (which, admittedly, are also rare, but not uncommon).

there's also a lot of promotional stuff. right now we have a twitter account. but there were also promotional guides! various in-character phone calls, vocal tracks.

if you really want to, you can find a lot of stuff that gives your character more depth even if they are ultimately simple.

dunno, i just feel like a lot of people wouldn't fall love with the characters of this series if they had literally no substance to them.

Fine, I'll put a stop to Elon Musk myself.

Whenever I re-read arc 1 I always kinda miss the vibe animus magic had back then. I don't know how to properly put it into words, but it felt like animus magic had some sort of more elusive and unknowable presence. Like, Anemone had to train in order to hone her magic. There was emphasis on this wrongness that all enchanted objects had. It felt different. Like it had some sort of staying presence. Hell, the only other animus we see other than Anemone literally is turning himself to stone from the guilt he has over what he's done.

Then it's turned out that no you can literally do anything you want without consequence. Literally like as soon as you crawl out of that egg you can start doing whatever you want. I dunno about you, but that's really quite boring.
