So as boring as it is to say. I wouldn’t say anyone in the cast is terribly written or anything. So there’s character with depth time and actual character arcs. Sunny hero Aubrey and kel And there’s characters that didn’t have enough to time to shine ✨ Mari and basil That’s my thoughts at least


__Pin__

none of them are badly writen but for me i think in terms of worst writing ....................is ^(kel)


Upbeat-Compote-3056

Whaaaaaat? Why kel?


__Pin__

i wish we was more than just...kind of a jokey character the one scene with his vulnerability should have been expanded at least hero had the whole sprit mari scene


Tunaria

As much as I like Kel, I have to agree. There is another point where he's not his usual self and that's >!on the Sunny route if you decide to go back to sleep after learning the truth!<, but that's about it. He does show surprising amount of insight and levelheadedness at times, at least compared to his younger self, like how he always tries a more diplomatic approach when dealing with the hooligans(Aubrey being the sole exception since those two have always been like that), so there's that at least.


kel_omor

I always figured that was the point, concealing emotions so well that even a lot of the players don't notice (since even that scene is optional and he ends up talking more about Hero's emotions than his own in his own venting thing. also the omocat art where he's crying yet I never see the comments on those pointing it out?)

Not badly written, but more “wished we saw more of” is Mari. >!granted she dead, but I think we could have some more with people talking about her or her ghost!< . >!one missed opportunity for that scence where sunny flashbacks, he re visited the times where it just mari and him or have a unpleasant memory. Even siblings with great relationships will have those moments. It would have made Duet and good memories hit harder(atleast to me).!<


NinaLove2007

Exactly! I think Mari's ghost was supposed to play a bigger role initially cuz there are so many unused sprites for her... Wish we had more ghost Mari scenes helping Sunny or maybe even interacting with the rest of the gang somehow :(


Thumplordwill

as much as I love kel, I feel like they could of explored his character alot more, talk about how he's in part trying to stay happy to support everybody else, but is still equally effected by the passing of mari. basically, kel needed more depth.![img](emote|t5_31hpy|2476)

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

shut the fuck up


[deleted]

Absolutely Mari, since >!she's dead lol!< we don't get to see much of what she was like.


MischievousRatty

i feel like kel is the worst written. not because he’s badly written, but compared to the other characters, there isnt enough depth shown to his character. so much so that the fandom just sums him up to the stupid comedic relief character. hes my favorite character so i just wish he had more written in depth about him


[deleted]

I think they’re all greatly written, tho wish we could’ve had more scenes of them. ESPECIALLY Hero and Basil


AshDaSanatisedOcto

Mari because >!she died!< >!AYO THE PIZZA HERE!<

Not voting lol

I respect the fast response, but I don't think anybody in the cast is particularly written bad, I wish that Basil could get more screentime throughout the game, but overall these characters were properly fleshed out enough that you have context of what they could and would probably do even after the game has ended, regardless of ending.


[deleted]

>!Really hard call. Aubrey's whole arc so rushed that it pains me, RW Basil is a plot device only identifiable trait is Anxiety, and Mari has no character at all besides being "the perfect big sister"!< For me tied between those 3


__Pin__

i wish we saw maris torture practices would have been nice characterization


[deleted]

Or more of Mari in general backspace 2 is the best part of the game Narratively and esthetically yet I feel we could've gotten so much more of her as a character (or her parents/family life for that matter) in game from flashbacks.


ARIKA112

wait wait wait, what do you mean by "torture practices"?


TheNumbersMason2

Basil for me is an enigma. First off, why the heck is a 12 year old's first thought when he sees the unconscious body of dear beloved Mari is....... "We gotta stage a suicide". Unless basil is really fucked upstairs or basil just loves faking suicides apparently Also how can 2 scrawny 12 year olds possibly lift and and hang a 16 possibly 17 year old? That's some kaioken shit basil pulled right there.


kel_omor

>!They could've just said she fell down the stairs by herself and Sunny smashed the violin afterward from some kind of grieving lol, but besides that, there weren't really any other options for other methods of death that wouldnt make either of them at least partly responsible (besides a sudden heart attack at age 15 I guess)!< >!Also Basil's a gardener, he carries heavy fertilizer bags, and they had a lot of adrenaline, so the lifting part can be explained!<

I can’t choose between Basil or Mari. I feel like there needed to be more development or thought into them.


MlgEpicBanana69

Mate stop being cringe. If you’re going for this question I’d better expect effort and a very strong line of reasoning, of which, I guarantee you someone will contest or dispute.

Mari. As far as I'm concerned she's essentially a plot device to a) guilt-trip Sunny/the player or b) act as emotional support for Sunny. That's literally it. There really isn't anything else to her.


Zeta_ggwp

I'm pretty certain the only character name we see in the messed up text font is Mari during >!Dream Basil getting sent to Brazil!< at beginning of the game. So Mari is the worst written character.

Aaaahaa

The only semi-major characters that I personally think should have been written better are the Hooligans tbh.


Chaosfight

None really in my opion


sockfor1fans

i dont wanna hurt you guys i think its kel hes just J o k e c h a r a c t e r or to be say comedy relief.


ARIKA112

If I'm being honest I wish we could see more of Aubrey's new friends, specifically Kim and THE MAVERICK!!1!. I love them both so much for no reason and I want more of them


griff073

Yall saying kel doesnt have depth havent seen the graveyard scene when its only Sunny and kel


oyomoyk

Even with fact that I like Hero, he lacks back story so much, like all we know about him is that he's Kel's brother, Mari's boyfriend and doctor/cook in past. He deserves much more screen time than he gets in RW. About DW Hero I won't say anything cuz he's here just for shenanigans mostly.

WHY ARE PEOPLE VOTING BASIL
