Okay, for me, Lilly has every right to be angry and scared of the consequences of Cam's actions, at least at first. I think everyone was scared of the consequences, but everyone besides Lilly (and Thim) decided it was worth the risk to try and save Eva. My problem with Lilly is that she continued to act like a bitch to Cam for 3 chapters and never once explained that she was scared and acting out or apologized for her behavior. She hasn't even ever said she is glad they are trying to save Eva. Up until the conversation in chapter 5, she didn't even act like she cared that Eva was gone and even then, all she could talk about was how Cam and Eva excluded her as children. It's not that I hate her character or that I don't understand her fear at being made into a deserter in the beginning, I just feel like there needs to be a conversation between her and Cam allowing her to explain and apologize. Cam already apologized to her for putting them in danger, even though he still believes he made the right call. The least she could do is reciprocate.I think you have the most backwards outlook on this game....
You get annoyed because you can't have it out with Lil who, and rightfully so, is angry because her brother made them all deserter and has no clue what he's doing while she was a rich kid with no idea how things were.
Yet the woman that tried to kill them all, including her own children, and has sent hunters after them and wants the MC dead above all else .... nah, she's fine. Bit of a dick move (your words) almost killing her kids but she can be redeemed.
But that Lil, how dare she be angry.
So it's fine to want to murder her offspring and want to mount the MC's head on a wall, but it's bad to be angry and talk down to the MC.....
Backwards.
As far as the mother, she really didn't have a choice but to fire on their ship for trying to escape. I'm not saying it was the right thing to do, but she is literally surrounded by people on the ship who could have court marshalled her for failing to try and stop them from escaping. Maybe she thinks that if she is the one to catch them, she can at least keep them alive. As far as the hunter, I don't remember if she sent the hunter or if someone ordered her to send the hunter. As far as wanting the MC dead, from her perspective he led her children into desertion. Of course she is pissed, that doesn't mean she wont have a change of heart at some point during the story.
Also, the 'dick move' comment was meant as a joke and to undersell how shitty it was. I get that it sucked, I just don't know how much of a choice she had. I also doubt she actually wanted to kill them. Maybe she was just trying to disable the engines before they jumped.
I hope this explains my feelings better.
