Am I the only one who raises an eyebrow every single time an entry about ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'' comes up on this wiki, especially in regards to Luke? He spends the first 10 hours of the game being nothing but a selfish, whiny brat who treats everyone like garbage, but reading these entries almost gives the impression that he's a poor abused victim who

Am I the only one who raises an eyebrow every single time an entry about \'\'VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss\'\' comes up on this wiki, especially in regards to Luke? He spends the first 10 hours of the game being nothing but a selfish, whiny brat who treats everyone like garbage, but reading these entries almost gives the impression that he\'s a poor abused victim who \"can\'t help acting that way [[spoiler:because he\'s mentally seven years old]]\". This honestly seems like a single troper\'s opinion being shoehorned into various articles. There needs to be some cleanup.

(While I\'m on the subject, I should add that the demonization of Anise in these same entries is also really excessive.)

I dunno, I honestly don't think the page as is, is apologetic in tone. Like I said before, you can't really miss what the book is like if you read more than a couple of paragraphs. Or arguably if you read less. It certainly doesn't read like an ad, at least to most people off the deep end of the political spectrum.

I originally put in a little humor in my edits to lampshade the over the top right wing utopia, but that got shot down. As per TV Tropes' rules (helpfully linked by [=MagBas=] and others) I've since tried to be strictly factual and neutral about it. And on the whole, that seems to work. Actually, I'd say we've all generally managed quite well so far, given we're handling a sort of tricky subject. It's a thin line between accurately describing the 'verse and the views of the characters, and bashing/mocking them.

I'm totally open to discussing improvements, though. Did you have any specific trope examples in mind that you object to, Starform?
