As Ihan made his way out, he couldn’t help but realize he was stepping into something significant. In the midst of his sudden clarity, he felt the weight of a resolved determination settling in, driving each of his steps with unwavering purpose.
While in a meeting with the planning team, a female planner had commented, “Don’t you think this character’s story is just... too pitiful?”
In a room where profitability and popularity reigned supreme, few sympathized. Instead, the responses she received were:
“What’s pitiful about it?”“The character’s tragic background will be well-received by the players. This is exactly the kind of thing they resonate with.”“True, stories are crucial for character appeal these days.”“Kudos to the creator for coming up with this. They did a good job.”
Most developers were simply satisfied that the character had a backstory. The woman sighed, feeling more exasperated by their responses than understood.
Among them, however, was one person who agreed with her perspective—though he kept it to himself. At that time, and even now, he was reserved, hesitant to voice his thoughts in front of others. Instead, he found himself glancing over the concise description of one specific female character’s story in the setting notes.
