#its even worse because the dlc also frames miq as being cursed mentally as well

[miquella-everywhere]

am i the only one that thinks it's pretty messed up to have a narrative where mohg is very heavily implied to be doing bad things to a child and then two years later say no! actually! the victim is indeed to blame!

like idk elden ring doesn't exist in a vacuum and it's always been political. to have the character that represents hope and ending oppression and genuine effort to fix shitty circumstances be a child or childish alone is suck imo, but also to have that child character be presented in a way that makes it easy to dismiss him as not only morally reprehensible but as manipulative feels? politically charged. poor victim conservative warmonger radahn vs. manipulative monster socialist miquella? does this make sense? it feels gross.

Oh my god anon YES

I made a post about the exact same thing that you're saying a while ago, but my point seemed to have flown over a lot of peoples head and took it as a Mohg hate-post(which fair ig 🤷)

BUT STILL

I just hate how the DLC does the ankle twist where it tries to shove down your throat that the child is the predator aktually 🤓👆. It's even worse imo since there was a two year gap were the community was able to fill in the blanks and a majority of the Base Game presents Miquella as the victim of a kidnapping at the hands of a blood cultist, and his actions towards Miquella were heavily framed as rapey.

But no... Miqlestor.

Its just nasty 🤮
