No.2 Type B	Nier 2	... lmao you have very little experience with Taro's work it seems.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	You can block me if you want lmao. idgaf. Your loss lmao.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Ugh. I'm just saying that Caim is much more comfortable to play as. He seems, SEEMS justified in his actions in the early game, while Zero SEEMS totally evil. She's smiling and having a jolly old time killing guys who think they are , or actually are, good guys, and Caim is smiling and having a good time killing guys who may, or may not be, totally evil. I don't want to play as an unjustifiably evil murderer and find out later that she was actually good or whatever, I'd rather want to side with my player character unless it's a game I'm playing solely for the gameplay.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	I literally can't say shit against you without spoiling why you're fucking wrong lmao so i'll let you think you're right for now.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I don't know what's up with the empire, but if the destroy the world thing is true, then he's already better off than Zero at the beginning of the game. The knights she's killing think they're fighting for good, while the Empire is obviously evil.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	I write both characters and know enough about them to tell you otherwise, but if you don't want spoilers I suggest you quickly stop trying to lecture me on shit you don't know and finish the games, then come back and try again.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Now stop spoiling me or I'll have to block you. I actually plan on playing the games so pleassse stop.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Look. All I'm saying is Caim is APPARENTLY justifiably edgy. In the beginning of the game. These guys killed his family, (apparently) and are destroying his nation (apparently) and want to kill a goddess that protects the world, (apparently).
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Same for Zero, but hers is slightly less shitty because she actually is to some degree successful.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	None of what Caim is doing is justifiable js.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	You're the one trying to tell me why Caim is better than Zero when I know they're both shitty lol.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Stop spoiling shit, christ.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Sure, Caim is an edgelord in the beginning of the game, but he seems justified in his actions. Even after fighting children that doesn't change, while Zero seems to be out to destroy civilization.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	... The Intoners are actually destroying the world by decaying the fabric of reality via their magic but okay.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	And you're playing as her. I don't want to side with that character.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Doesn't change the fact that Zero is an evil edgequeen from the onset. These knights are human beings who trust in the intoners, and want to keep the peace they've created or at least are said to have created.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	It all just proceeds to get worse anyways so it's not like that's the worst of it.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	thanks for spoiling!
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Dude sorry to spoil this one little tidbit for you but if you're in the empire- and they do this in the game, they send CHILDREN at him- he STILL kills them.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	alright.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Hahaha no, he's not.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	She's just evil. Caim is edgy, but he can't be seen as evil because what he's doing is justifiable so far.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I'm just saying he's better than Zero at the beginning of the game.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	oh my gosh, duh.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	And Caim is by no means a good guy.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	... You do realize what your party is composed of throughout the game, right?
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	but up to chapter 2, he is hella bloodthirsty and loves to kill the enemy, but he hasn't been slaughtering people trying to keep the peace. He's been killing guys who are trying to ruin the world.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Years ago.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Oh, I finished it 100%.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I haven't finished drakengard
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	They BOTH did that. >_>
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	It's literally from social anxiety.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Zero, on the otherhand, is killing knights trying to keep the peace, religious officials, and innocent people.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	... It's really not though. He just wants to murder, he doesn't give a shit who or why.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Caim is likeable because his bloodthirstiness is justified. The empire is ruining his life, the lives of his family and friends, and the lives of his people. DON'T SPOIL ME.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Since I've been avoiding the game because I dislike her so much.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Like you're not really supposed to like Caim either, but you end up liking him because he's better by comparison than literally everyone else.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Yeah... kinda backfired.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Zero's character I think was portrayed horribly, and I can see why she's unlikable, but to be fair I don't believe Taro intended for the player to -like- her. At all.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I consider him the likeable edge while Zero is utterly unlikeable.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	Not for roleplaying, but for his character.
No.2 Type B	Nier 2	Caim is horrendously difficult but entertaining to write. Had him cut someone's legs off in a fight once. At the waist. c:
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	...And N2.
Nier 2	No.2 Type B	I fucking love Caim.
