Do you really not understand how being easily provoked or easily manipulated isn't a good trait for a person in any position of authority. But its more that I don't see how being able to keep your cool and think before you act means that whoever your talking about isn't a real person. Being able to keep your cool like that is a trait a lot of people have and is trait that can be learned normally because it's a trait that people have to learn. Think about a teacher who works with children. How unprofessional would it be if a teacher was able to be manipulated and easily teased by their students? Your to focused on what you prefer in a woman which isn't what we were talking about. I don't want to restart that argument.
"And second, it's funny your entire basis for that she would be "easily provoked" and a "pushover" that could be easily replaced on the throne. Being one scene, where someone who's spent pretty much her entire life being trained in "court etiquette" and learning how to scheme and manipulate people. Managed to rile Aurora up one time...
"
As I said before here. It was one scene dude. It's really quite a reach imo to just write her off as being "easily provoked" and "easily manipulated" after she got pissed off ONE time by someone who is rather masterful at it...
Why wouldn't a queen need to be skilled in politics when she's constantly going to dealing with people at the court. Even in situations where Elis would do everything Aurora would still have some authority as consort as well as occasionally filling in Elis isn't available for any reason. People in the court are also going to try to approach her to get her to get Elis to do stuff. Even when women were completely powerless they still were expected to keep up a certain image. Again I don't really care that you like Aurora better the point wasn't even about Isis. It was about Aurora being easily manipulated and thus not that skilled as a queen
Again, you're basing all this information that she'd be a horrible queen, or at the very least worse at it than Isis. because Isis managed to piss her off one time. That's it. Like, bruh. What do you think she's going to do if she has to hold court and listen to the people or something?? Lose her shit at some guy asking for a new chicken because his died??
I think she would have at least some idea of how to rule, given that she's the only child of a father that has been in charge of the north for a rather long time (by vote, I might add). I really don't see how getting pissed off one time = she has no idea how to be a good queen. I don't think she's just stupid now, and would be clueless at it.
Dude again, were not talking about which of the two you prefer. I really don't want to restart that argument. I only brought that the whole point in politics is mind games. Aurora not being skilled at that is not a good thing and that at least when it comes to Elis.
Same as above, I just really don't think she's going to be AS BAD as you seem to think she will. I'm really not seeing where all this "Aurora is terrible at politics" comes from outside of this one scene with Isis. I think she would make a great queen. One that as I said before, would be able to sway the people and become rather beloved, and be able to manage her duties rather well.
Isis had a lot in common with Cass which is why it's weird you dislike Isis but like Cass. The main difference is mostly that Isis is better and politicking but less skilled at fighting. But that whole thing about teasing and mind games stuff that you ruled out is stuff that Cass has been doing from the start, except that Cass is less upfront to Elis about things early on
I can think of a few reasons. The main one being that on my first blind playthrough back during like 0.5. Isis raised so many red flags in my mind. That plus the fact that she was mutually exclusive with Aurora. I ended up just writing her off for many runs as I couldn't see why I would ever pick her. If I could put Elis on her path as well as Aurora, I probably would have. And then might have ended up liking her more.
As for Cass, I think it was because you get to know her, at least a little bit without any player input really. And as I like to have all routes open during most of my games if I can, at least early on. I went down her path, and I just really felt for her. She's had a lot of fucked up shit happen to her, and she's pretty much never had anybody looking out for her, or rooting for her. Outside of Elis that is.
Thanks to a certain elvish woman...That I pray I am going to be able to kill at some point. I think she's an absolute sweetheart at heart.
It's just that she's had to bury and hide it to protect herself. So "Fixing her" on the white path is honestly one of the top two? Things that I'm looking forward to seeing play out the most honestly.
The other one obviously being, to commit
