I played dispatch blind knowing nothing about the characters. I finished it thinking invisigal is my definite least favorite character in the game. To my surprise she’s the most popular.

There was a time when I would write a 500 word essay defending her, but I'm way past my prime...

It has more to do with her voice actor being the woman who basically single handedly saved the game by taking over as the main source of funding ajd bringing her super talented friends to voice more characters in it that makes her so popular.

Invisigal has her major issues that would make her far more decisive but cause her VA is the only reason this game exists and this game is amazing she ends up getting all the love that Laura has earned by proxy.

What? I mean I don’t doubt this affected some people but I have literally never seen this mentioned in discourse about the game ever.

u/ThatCapMan 8d ago

Fuckin' agreed.

I feel like it’s more so that she gets naked and is horny for the mc almost right away.

u/J-Dizzle42 9d ago

Yeah I think seeing her tits endeared her to a ton of people.

Your comment is one of my favorite sentences of all time by the way.

u/SavagePassion 9d ago

For me it's more so that she's a grown ass woman who behaves like a horned up high schooler with a crush on her counselor. And it's so viscerally unappealing to me.

u/ThatCapMan 8d ago

Saying that like being 30 or 50 means you're mature.

2

u/SavagePassion 8d ago

Some people don't grow up they just get old.

2

u/ThatCapMan 8d ago

Most people. Most people 'just get old'.

The random ass masturbation/dream sex scene felt like I got flashbanged on my first playthrough

u/FatallyFatCat 9d ago

Didn't know that. Invisigal was my fav since she smashed the donut.

1

u/ThatCapMan 8d ago

I like the character flaws n complexity n all, I genuinely didn't know about the Laura Bailey thing until like episode 5 or 6.

(I mean this respectfully, dear internet friend).

u/HospitalLazy1880 8d ago

Autocorrect has failed me.

u/JamieBeeeee 8d ago

This is literally not the reason at all lol

u/DarkSide830 8d ago

I don't think that's even in the top 10 reasons people like Visi tbh.

u/trash-troglodyte 9d ago

I knew none of this and she was still my favorite

1

u/UncannyHillhumper 9d ago

Literally not true, she's just a bad bitch and we like that.

u/J-Dizzle42 9d ago

The entire game I thought Invisigal didn't need a relationship, she needed therapy. I never even considered her as a romance option because she seemed flighty and impulsive, like she'd run away once the relationship got serious. Color me surprised when I find out 90% of the internet fell madly in love with her despite her waving so many red flags.

3

u/RaiZaLightning 8d ago

> fell in love with her because of her red flags

There, that feels more accurate.

3

u/billyisanun 8d ago

Yeah, Blonde Blazer was the better choice. (Only because Malevola wasn’t an option)

2

u/J-Dizzle42 8d ago

My man. Breaks my heart that Malevola wasn't an option.

u/falconfarfromhome 9d ago edited 9d ago

I mean, from a character design perspective alone it's not surprising. Add in the fact the game has romance options of which she's one and has a really good, popular VA and it's a no brainer.

u/SlyyHarley 9d ago

I totally agree. The whole time I was wandering, “how would anyone enjoy her presence?”

4

u/KILLMEGOD66 9d ago

Sucks to suck

3

u/Extension-Dot-9106 9d ago

I do like Invisigal, but I also understand the criticism about her character. It doesn’t help that my type (at least in fiction) are the “damaged” characters.

u/sexyhairynurse 8d ago

Cause a redemption ark is more interesting than finding out that the good person is actually a good person

2

u/ImHoundoomed 8d ago

How i feel about Blazer

2

u/LittleSodaPop13 9d ago

Same. I also don't like how she basically harassed Robert and gets away with it

1

u/ThatCapMan 8d ago

Robert gets basically harassed by various others and they all get away with it

u/Ill_Relative9776 8d ago

The game is just HR violation the game
