"Curly is a bad guy" RANT.

Something that pisses me off to NO END are people who blame Curly for what happened, even worse is if they say he's a bad guy.

The people who blame Curly fail to acknowledge the TIMELINE of how the events played out. (PS. I'd recommend watching a YouTube video of the game in chronological order!)

First of all, Curly had NO TIME to think. (Well, not really). Anya tells him, he's in shock and probably spends the whole day thinking about what to do, then the next day Anya reveals that she told Jimmy she was pregnant, which Curly is upset that she didn't warn him before telling Jimmy because... duh... he wants to help.

For the record-- it's not as simple as "just tying Jimmy up" or "just shooting him". If he tied Jimmy up he'd have to give him bathroom breaks and make sure he's fed, all that nonsense, which wouldn't make sense for someone who didn't know they were on a timer. And... obviously he can't shoot him. Not only is murder ILLEGAL but Curly is responsible for EVERYONE on Tulpar......... including Jimmy.

When Curly finally does confront Jimmy... it's a pretty normal conversation. Curly wants to help Jimmy and Anya get through this. He's not gonna confront Jimmy talking about how much punishment he's going to get, he's trying to COOPERATE. He'll reassure Jimmy that it'll all be okay, because it's a stupid idea to go up to an abuser and say: "I'm gonna get you in so much trouble". That doesn't mean Curly's afraid of confrontation; it means he's a GOOD, ~~responsible~~ leader.

Let me remind you all: JImmy PASSED the psych eval. (At least we can infer he did). Why the hell would Curly realistically think Jimmy was about to kill them all? He didn't think he was on a timer! Who would??? (And if you say you would've realized he was gonna do something as drastic as that, than you've clearly never been in a position like this).

Quite literally IMMEDIATELY after having that conversation with Jimmy, he went to crash them. This situation had NO EASY answer on what to do. And, no, he can't just "get him off the ship" like Anya wanted, she was being unrealistic. The ship still had just under 8 months of transport.

I watched Mouthwashing (I kid you not) the day after being sexually assaulted. Coincidence? Yeah. But it's me letting you know JUST FOR REFERENCE... I know what it's like to be trapped under a roof with someone who sexually abused you. Curly fills the void for me. I felt so emotionally connected to Curly because I LOVED him for how responsibly he handled the situation, even if it was all for naught.

Because of this, I get really emotional when people say Curly is a bad guy... so if I go hog wild about this topic, that's why.

People who dislike Curly because of how "useless" he is live in a lala land. The game has realistically written characters, so you need to judge them with REALISM. Don't just put yourself in their shoes, put yourself in their brain.

But that's my TED talk for the day. Thank you for reading.

Captain Curly (Mouthwashing) - When You Can't Fix Everything and Why He's a Victim of Jimmy

There are many discussions surrounding Captain Curly all around the internet on whether he is a good person or not.

Some say he isn't while some say he is, but the question simply has an easy answer.

Curly is a morally grey character.

Captain Curly, when we first play as him and see through his perspective, we come to learn a lot about him with the short amount of sections where we do play as him.

We know that he is very optimistic, he cares deeply for his crew and always tries to look on the bright side of things. He just wants everything to be fine, and will always try to fix it if it isn't because, well because he's the captain.

But him being so optimistic is what was his downfall, and I think that's what makes him such a well written and realistic, morally grey character.

Curly isn't innocent, but he is a victim of Jimmy just like everyone else on the ship is.

Let me explain.

Curly was the first person Anya told about when Jimmy assaulted her and how she was pregnant, and Curly told her he would talk to Jimmy.

He would fix it.

I hate when people say that he didn't care about Anya or didn't believe her. Curly never said he didn't believe her, and he never said he was defending Jimmy either.

This is one of the examples of his optimistic views doesn't work out for him.

We know that Curly invited Jimmy to work with him in Pony Express and we immediately assume that because they're friends, then Curly is defending Jimmy.

But if you replay and really pay attention to Curly and Jimmy's conversations, you come to realize that Jimmy is borderline controlling and abusive with the way he talks to Curly.

He isn't and doesn't see Curly as a friend, but Curly being too nice and tends to look past that type of stuff, that made it easy for Jimmy to manipulate Curly.

After Anya told him, Curly did talk to Jimmy about it, but he went about it in a calm way. I think what he did is pretty realistic for the situation they're in, but I'll talk more about that later.

Curly talking to Jimmy is what led Jimmy to crash the ship and get Curly injured and fuck everything else up. Not to mention that Jimmy wanting to get rid of Curly so he could be captain also played a huge part in it.

Jimmy never saw Curly as a friend, he only saw him as someone he could use to get what he wanted.

Curly trying to fix what happened by talking to Jimmy was his wake up call, his karma in a way.

Because of the crash, Curly understands Anya in a way when Jimmy starts to hurt and force him to take the pain meds. Curly being brutally hurt and injured can only lay and not do anything to stop it.

He finally understood what Anya had felt in a way, and he probably hates himself because he didn't do something to protect her.

And her killing herself in front of him and watching the rest of his crew die to the hands or consequences of Jimmy, even Jimmy himself, was what made Curly realize that he simply can't fix everything.

Curly is absolutely a victim of Jimmy like everyone else on the ship is.

He was manipulated, abused, and not to mention Jimmy literally ate some of his body. All of this was because Curly was too optimistic.

Curly is one of the most realistic characters, and I think people saying that he's as bad as Jimmy just aren't thinking about the fact that he was a victim of Jimmy himself.

Yes, he could have done more to protect Anya, most likely by switching her over to a room that has locks.

But I believe that he couldn't do anything besides that, especially when it comes to Jimmy.

He knows how crazy and angry Jimmy gets. He was probably thinking that he couldn't just go up to him and start a fight because, let's be real, Jimmy was going to kick Curlys ass and he was probably going to crash the ship no matter what.

Curly, in my opinion, while yes, he didn't do anything to protect Anya, he wasn't protecting or defending Jimmy.

Curly was trying to look at how he could fix it, but I think no matter what he did it wouldn't have mattered.

I see people saying that Curly could have shot Jimmy with the gun or locked him up in another room or contacted the higher-ups of Pony Express. I don't think any of this would have realistically worked.

One, he can't kill Jimmy because he is the co-pilot, and they needed a co-pilot for the ship, and locking him in a room wouldn't have worked either.

Curly couldn't have called the higher ups either because Pony Express wouldn't have done anything because they simply just don't care about their workers.

No matter what Curly did or what he could have done, none of it realistically would have worked or done anything to solve the problem.

I'm not defending Curly at all, I'm a victim of assault myself, so I understand Anyas feelings, I'm simply saying that we should look at the other possibilities and should start thinking about what Curly was actually thinking before saying he was as terrible as Jimmy.

Curly isn't innocent, but he was a victim of Jimmy.

His optimistic views on life and on people are what caused his downfall.
