( No Title )
I genuinely do not think Investigations 2 meant to imply that Blaise was physically abusive but when you give me a guy saying “let’s go home” and taking a single step towards his son only for that son to full body flinch I am going to draw some conclusions
I don’t see why it wouldn’t have been trying to imply that. I’m pretty sure that was the deliberate implication– and certainly the conclusion I drew as well.
More than anything it’s the way that they talk about him in the creator interviews I’ve read – there’s a lot of talk of escaping parents’ legacies and the gloves being about avoiding leaving fingerprints and very little talk about what his father did to him personally. Now, like I said, I do think the implications are there, and that not being the intention of the game’s producer does not rule out individual writers having it in mind.
Ahhh, interesting. I don’t generally read creator interviews, and I mostly only consider what’s actually presented in the game/story when I’m forming my interpretation of a character.
More than fair! I definitely believe in the text as the ultimate source of character interpretations, and the text of the game sure has a guy who’s constantly playing with fire and his son who wears long sleeves and gloves all the time.
