Character flaws is interesting to me only if it gives the characters more pressure, not just more trailer drama.
A weak version of this discussion is just “is this good or bad?” A stronger version asks how keeping choices believable changes player behavior: what people expect, what they prepare for, and what they stop assuming.
Three things would make the topic more useful:
- how the setting pushes characters into bad choices
- whether supporting characters feel like people or mission devices
- what the scene says about Lucia and Jason when nobody is shooting
Коротко по-русски: В сюжете важны не только большие ограбления и погони. Нужны сцены, где видно характер, ошибки, доверие и давление на персонажей.
That is why I would rather discuss one concrete thing: What would be a meaningful update about character flaws before launch? Where do you agree or disagree? What evidence would change your mind?
