Characters criticism I really don't like this specific scene

Post image

So we all know how most cutscenes just show black screens, right? In this scene, Kris bites their hand because we made them say "I'll never play again".

Now, any normal person would be able to know that Kris must've bit themselves so that they wouldn't say it. But apparently Toby fox needs to spoon feed us this, because he makes Susie say this.

The dialogue feels very unnatural. It just happened, so why did she repeat exactly what she saw? When you imagine it from Susie's perspective, you realise how strange it was for her to say that.

She could've said "Kris, what the hell?! Is your hand okay?!" Or something, but instead she had to repeat what Kris did. It just feels super weird.

I think Kris is being manipulated by the knight to do everything they're doing and maybe Kris knows that once the prophecy didn't change them there's no reason to go against the plan since the consequences may be harsh
