to all the new Maya haters no she is not the worst character!
allow me to try and explain what we Maya detractors think of Maya and what we believe is their character plot!
Maybe the reasons why you "hate" Maya are not the same as the other Maya haters. Is just a theory, but i bet some people hate her couse they always bet for the badies, like a form of literary rebelion. Others hate her for "liying" to the MC. And i bet some people hate her because she is a feminist, and politicaly "leftish".
Maya is the emotional growth character that needs to drop the freaking princess complex and start making moves on her life and taking responsibility and control instead of always being the damsel in distress!
Why you say she had a princess complex? Again she is more or less in the same spot that almoast every other character, dady pay her studies. And yet noone of them get the same hatred. She is using that money to study, not to party withouth any regards for the future as the Diks. She avoid telling MC her problems until chapter 6.
yes she is evolving but its just so slow... not to mention that until Josy arrival she was planning to seduce the MC and placate her father instead of confronting him!
Thats just a especulation. We know that she is interested in MC like every other girl character in the game. Why to asume that she has dark motivess, but not asume the same for every other character? Why she is not simple interested in MC for being kind, goodlooking and having and amazing cock, like every other girl? Why Maya haters have to make up reasons tomake her look worst?
There were moments in the game that i think she have actually considered dropping Josy and probably at the end of ep.6 she still is, taking the easy way out caving in instead of asserting herself, she lies because she does not want confrontation, pretty normal for most girls but lieing to stay in the same place is weak and we expect her to grow!
Yeah she did. Just like Josy who noone hates. And, why to start a relationship with the MC is not "asserting herself", why to asume her atraction towards MC is genuine. And again, if the main concer of Maya haters is weakness... well i mantain what my original post said, but in silence so not you or me get deleted.
You talk about madurity and responsability. I value that, but i learn from my olders that thoose values also mean that the strong protect the weak, that is mature and responsabile to feel compassion for thoose who are in need, not to hate them but rather to help them. And i don't aprove people who hates the weak ones, couse they choose an easy fight.
worst part of it all! she blames her father instead of owning her own weaknesses and that is also quite distressing!
Once she decides to confront her father get a job and tell him to accept her as she is or fuck off is when we will finally see what her father is really about, so stop jumping the gun and attack a dude that wants whats best for his daughter and in is point of view is achieving it!
Again the old issue. How much did it cost a university study in America? Can a 19 years old afford thoose studies working?. If not then Maya is screwed without help. And as i told you before, Maya not only had to pay her studies but also the loan for thoose studies he dont get anyhow. Couse as the story present the problem, she was cheated by her dad. And sometimes in life you cant send to fuck off a guy if you depend on that. It's called power.
The most frustrating part of all of this is that once she gets a spine and learns to assert herself she might even get everything she wants since her father might break or even if he does not he can reach the "lets not talk about it agreement i will always love you and you will always be my daughter but please respect my believes and do not shove it in me or your mothers face"!
Why you asume is Maya the intolerant and not her father when everything in the stoyy point out in the opossite direction? It's clear that in Maya position the easy way is to talk with her father rather than: working, prostitute herself or supporting Quinn harrasment. One talk with daddy to make an arregement or long hours of work day after day?. Talk with daddy is what inmature people will do.
hate the character all you want or love it as much as you want but do not try to blind us just because you have a dark spot towards that character,
As i told you I don´t love Maya. All the girls in this game love me. I prefer one thouthands time a hot thing like Sage or a Sarah with that evil smart look. Even Quinn is fun like hell. I reject the ethic values of Maya haters. Condemn weakness instead of filling compassion towards her.
she is well written for her purpose and except for the loan stupidity plot that is nothing that could not easily be solved with a denouncement act and get it annulled so she can refinance her student loan!
In the real world sure. But if that would be the case in this story then it would loose most of the charm. Maya is just stupid and their dad is throwing a weak false threat.
i will try to stay away from this conversation since it got over 30 of my best argumentative posts deleted my position as been stated both towards Maya and towards her father!
Totally agree with you on that. To delete my comments still had at least some sense. Yours were educated and on topic.
Finally on a personal note. Is usual that we read a story from the stories we have in real life. But there are different stories. One of my friends told me that she saw how another friend's dad put a knife on his neck when he was 13 and told him that if he didnt wake up he was going to cut his head. His uncle was sexually abused by his dad when he was 5 yrs old. He, the kid, end up in a hospital for crazy people. Neither Maya or Maya's dad is neither thoose people or the fat kid you told me before.
