did anybody else cry at the part Bianca's dad showed up?
 
I was crying during the part Bianca's dad showed up in the game worried about her, did anybody else experience this?

Mew~ September 3rd, 2011 8:42 AM

No not really. I was too busy laughing when Elesa mentioned she was the gym leader - and a model too. xD; Though I can't deny that the scene was not touching.

Though, Unwavering Emotions (the music playing during the scene) is simply an amazing piece of music.

Ho-Oh September 3rd, 2011 9:29 AM

/giggles @ above post

Yeah I didn't cry :x It was unusual to put into the games imo - well, the way it was put together. Elesa isn't really that great of a role model and the fatherly involvement wasn't enhanced enough for it to actually make a difference to the players really.

Idk I would've liked if the story of her father not wanting her to leave was explored more rather than what Bianca wanted to be when she gets older.

Kevin September 3rd, 2011 2:07 PM

No I didn't cry. I kinda skimmed through that part, because I just wanted to get a move on to the next part of the story, soo yeah.

But as said above the music was pretty nice.

PlatinumDude September 3rd, 2011 3:23 PM

I didn't cry when Bianca's dad showed up at Nimbasa; instead, I was angry at him for stopping Bianca's journey at that point.

Zelda September 3rd, 2011 4:14 PM

I didn't really have any kind of feeling at the scene. More or less, it was a bit obvious that he would let Bianca go out on her own to explore. Though I agree with Forever and would have liked to see the story of her father not letting her leave extend a bit. It could have built some kind of bond relationship in the game with the two. I guess if anything though, they could have left her thoughts on what she wanted to be to a third game and kept her place in this generation discovering many new facts about Pokémon, people and the region itself.

But otherwise, I didn't cry nor feel any extra special moment from that part of the game, though the music was enjoyable and fitting.

cazzler September 3rd, 2011 4:35 PM

I was button mashing through it xD

Kenshin5 September 3rd, 2011 9:50 PM

At that point I was sick of seeing Bianca and Cheren so I really didn't overly care for the dialogue they were spouting off. So no I didn't have any emotion over it other then can I just have the option to skip this.

Maple Leaf September 4th, 2011 5:31 PM

I don't remember much of the scene, but I don't recall crying. ;;

I guess it was slightly touching? I didn't really care for it. >:

TemariChi September 4th, 2011 5:36 PM

I remember that part now that you mentioned it. I didn't cry. I just kept on pushing the button to try get to the next part LOL...

oocyst September 5th, 2011 2:38 AM

I didn't cry, I was pissed at her dad for not letting her do whatever she wants to do.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ September 5th, 2011 5:04 AM

No, I didn't. At the time I was half paying attention to the game and the music I was listening to at the time just so happened to be... I think it was Bon Jovi. Or Taylor Dayne. One of the two.

I think I was more annoyed that these people are interrupting my journey for world domination Pokemon mastery yet AGAIN... Bianca and her family need to learn how to settle their domestic disturbances without dragging me into the fray.

2Cool4Mewtwo September 5th, 2011 8:39 AM

Call me heartless, but I didn't care one bit about about that scene and what happened.

Musashi September 5th, 2011 1:23 PM

It was touching, but I didn't cry, no.

Lightblind September 5th, 2011 1:29 PM

Dang it. Read to much into this topic. Now when I beat HG and start White, and get to this part, I'll probably be be cruelly amused as opposed to being sad right off the bat (if I ended up being).

The Nightmare September 6th, 2011 4:52 PM

I didn't really cry in that part.

bobandbill September 7th, 2011 2:05 AM

Nope, didn't cry... and I honestly wasn't really moved by the scene either. Music felt overdone, the explanation felt a bit bare and hence the acceptance by Bianca's father seemed to come around too easily. That and as that subplot only came into the limelight for the 2nd time (the first being at the start of the game), I felt it just didn't get as much focus as it could have used to have had an actual impact.

Astinus September 7th, 2011 2:35 PM

Can't say that I did. There wasn't much explanation to it before to make it emotional when it happened, and nothing really did happen in the scene to make it really emotional. Instead, it came off as a random interruption when there were more important things to deal with in the storyline.

solarowl September 7th, 2011 3:45 PM

I didn't cry, and this moment wasn't very touching to me, actually. It was just a random side event that wasn't really needed. I mean, maybe if this was brought up more times during the story, I would've cared a little more, but still, wasn't very important for me.

Pokemon Trainer Touko September 8th, 2011 12:36 AM

Nope I didn't cry. The only time I cried during the game was when N left. ;w;
... Unwavering emotions is awesome tho, it's one of my favorite music tracks. :DDD

Neil Peart September 8th, 2011 5:43 PM

...Is this serious?

Hell no.

tudyx September 9th, 2011 10:51 PM

i was not touched about this,not even a tear,and nothing.
like others say it was annoyng that it stopped my journey.

Nakuzami September 13th, 2011 4:49 PM

I thought it was a bit touching, but I think it was probably the music that touched me more than the scene. It could have been expanded on quite a bit more, which could add a lot to Bianca's character development. She has potential to an awesome character C:

I also thought that Bianca's father was a bit annoying. Probably because he was making a public scene, and those things just seem to bug me -.-'

Atomic Pirate September 14th, 2011 3:23 PM

No, I wanted her dad to take her home. That way she wouldn't annoy me with her stupidity and cluelessness and force me to fight her awful team that provides no good EVs whatsoever.

Jovi September 15th, 2011 12:40 AM

If there was some significant emotional build up to that scene, it's possible I could've been touched.
