Hmm, I don't think the idea that killing female characters has more emotional impact on the audience is a good reason to kill female characters. You're missing a layer, Mac. It's not "female => dead" results in greater impact, although that may be true. It's "first female protagonist => dead" that is jarring. Both that they killed something that the player base clearly wanted, and that they killed the player character...that the person you were manipulating murdered someone without you being aware of it until the trial. Each game has featured roughly six dead female characters, and none of them have the impact that Kaede's death does. --- Video Game Music Contest 14 champion: Idola Phantasy Star Saga - Endeavour <cite>azuarc posted [p:946655124] in Danganronp...
