The prophesied has been criticized in several directions, even before its release, but one of the most talked about components is that of the dialogues between the protagonist – Frey – and his sentient bracelet. The actress who portrayed the characterHowever, Ella Balinska doesn’t seem bothered by it.
Speaking to The Verge, Balinska said that Frey is no ordinary character and that audiences have different reactions to things they’re not used to seeing. She says she “loves” the gaming community for the effort they put into exploring the content of every game they play, but Balinska thinks Frey is a “fantastic, no-nonsense” protagonist, even if her dialogue is annoying .
“I think people always have a positive or negative response to something they’re not used to seeing, and that’s totally fine because that’s how we incite change,” Balinska said. “This is an amazing game which came out with an amazing leading lady who is so bold, so bold, so reluctant in the best possible way.”
In general, in any case, the criticisms are not aimed at the actress, but rather at the quality of the writing, which hasn’t convinced the fans. Even the critics responded coldly: the scores of the international reviews are just above the sufficiency in fact.
