Nah, not just Chyos. We debated about it not too long ago. I still think pRick deserves nothing for sending his injured newly homeless and fatherless bestfriend into the orc infested woods alone. And then pissing on his concerns when he came back cursed and raped from it. Good time charlie gets nothing from me.
pRick… Lmao.
If I have to be honest I am also skeptical on a Rick arc, since we never felt really a strong friendship between the two, he helps with some information (New Vegas style), on the house for Emily (Only to never return not even to check) and the caravan and that’s it.
MC and Rick may be best friends, but he is not really a BFF for the player, we weren’t there to see his friendship born and as you said he is kinda absent when he need, sure he still gives some help but not as much as we would expect, maybe it can be explained by his alcohol situation or his bitchy mother.
Thing is that I am more attached to other characters like Mira, John and Frank, because I was there as a player during the development of that relationship.
Yeah I care more for an NPC with 5 lines of dialogue than his best friends lmao
