I don't know if Lisia's whole purpose was to get into the idol bandwagon in Japan or to bring more eye candy to the male audience, even though she could be the same age as your character due to sharing the same size, making her choice of outfit both questionable and morally wrong for western viewers. Aarune also felt unneeded, as you could any generic NPC take his place to explain secret bases to you.

Lisia is SO. ANNOYING.
Every time I win a contest it's always ruined by her! "By the way, there's someone waiting for you in the blah blah room." Oh gee, I wonder who it is? Her rival is also annoying. I would like being in contests more if a cut scene didn't happen every time I won. Aaurune is okay, if I'm being honest I was rather happy to find him because I could start decorating my secret base-after seeing all those secret base spots on the journey through Hoenn I wanted to make a secret base already. I love how there's a bunch of secret places on Routes 130-13? I forgot which routes haha. Anyways, I don't think Nintendo should've added those characters in the game but there's nothing we can do about it. |
I had already forgot about them until I read this. Basically I really didn't care about them. I thought they were neither good nor bad just there. Unless you really bother with contests I don't see why you would remember Lisia that much. I never play the contests so that explains that. I actually do a lot with the secret bases so you'd think I'd have Aarune in mind, but I usually just pass him buy my items and leave.
|
I like Lisia. She's cute, and I don't find her annoying, I find her entertaining. Plus, as someone said on the first page, I like finding out more info on Wallace, who's like. My favorite. So there's that.
I'm kinda neutral on Aarune. He's just kinda...there? Like, I don't dislike him, but I don't really like him either. Overall, I don't mind that they added the characters. I'm glad the game is more than just a remake of Ruby and Sapphire, it's got new elements as well. |
I don't really give a fuck about them besides their appearances. The only thing I liked about Lisia was her appearance. I'm not sure about Aarune, I think I ignored him all the time.
|
I don't remember much from Aarune, but Lisia was cute and she made a funny little appearance early in the game while you were first in Slateport. Since I haven't completed any though, I haven't seen much of her since then.
|
For Lisia, I've only conpleted 3 contests, those beung Cleverness, Coolness, and I believe Cuteness, and I haven't seen her since finishing the Cool one with my Cosplay Pikachu. Which is very disappointing to me, as I love good tidbits of random storyline. I liked the progression between her and Chaz and my character, and I've even seen Chaz and Macherie a couple times in contests, but where is Lisia and Ali? Also, is there more story when you finish all the segments....?
As for Aarune, he was pretty neat. I like Secret Bases so I didn't mind him, plus I tend to feed off others' excitement and appearantly game characters count too. XD I've seen him in Fortree a couple times and don't mind talking to him, the only thing I didn't like was how he forced me to temporarily use that secret base as a default. I already have a base I use in every Hoenn game, outside of Lilycove in a Bush near Regi....steel? with a small lake, grass, and berry soil. :3 but for a while my base was set as that for others to see. >.> I still think it was pretty nice to see that randomly generous NPC was given a bigger part. :3 But seriously does Lisia and Chaz have any more storyline? ._. |
Wow... I didn't think that people disliked Lisia so much :( I thought she was cute and a nice new addition to integrate contests into the story more instead of them just being "there." I think Aarune was also nice, he made secret bases more of a thing especially now that they're more prominent with Streetpass and all.
|
I really don't like how little they are integrated into the story. I mean, during the months leading up to the release of the game, I really thought they would be a bigger part of the story. Their designs and concept are really great. However, they only seem to be part of what they represent. I don't even use those much so I can't see them often. Sad.
|
I thought it was a nice change of pace. Lisia was a bit on the annoying side, but not that much of an issue in my opinion. Aarune did his job; secret bases were drastically altered, so it was good for them to bring in a new 'expert' to go along with it. Fit perfectly.
Wouldn't have cared if they didn't exist, either. Just nice, fun, generally irrelevant additions to the game. |
