>>55152963>And Carmine gave a perfectly good reasonShe didn't.
>she knows Kieran is a fan of the ogreThat's a good reason to tell him.
>doesn't want him to follow it to the mountain at that hourShe could have stopped him, or they could have gone with him. Or at the very least tell him later or in the morning. Yet she tells him to leave constantly and lies to him.
>the grandfather literallyYeah that makes no sense either. There is no reason why he wouldn't have told him by that point, especially considering Kieran already liked Ogerpon anyway. It would just be "yeah you're right but the village doesn't know". There was no justification there either.
>But WE are not at fault for Kieran's descent into madnessNot fully but yes. Everyone around him is.
>a lonely and anxious kidYes he was obviously already getting mistreated long before he appeared on screen.
>gets frustrated over HIS OWN weaknessIt would be stupid not to. There is nothing wrong with wanting to become better.
>if they're not telling me this it MUST be because they're making fun of me OR because they look down on meAnd he was right. They were looking down on him. You literally said it yourself a few sentence prior even. And the other option wasn't unlikely either considering he constantly gets that at the school.
>Ogerpon was the one who chose to come with usFor no real narrative reason, yet it's a part of the story. Another big problem.
>Kieran deliberately wanted to ignore Ogerpon's wishesIn a world where boxes and trades exist.
>who clearly feels uncomfortable with people from the villageUntil he solved the issue. Then Ogerpon came to the village and it was happy. See, it doesn't matter what Kieran does, it always needs to be painted as villainous.
>pushing people awayDidn't happen. They broke his trust which clearly showed the player character wasn't his friend.
>you're just as valuableMay have been Game Freak's intention but they didn't do a good job at showing it.
