This has bothered me since my first day playing this game. Theo is one of the most notable NPCs in the game, he features prominently in the campaign, and then continues to pop up in other missions, always helping out, either by fighting or teleporting in to rescue people.
His sister? Sits in a corner tucked into the back of the Ant Hill, where there is no reason to go. She does literally nothing. Her presence adds nothing to the game in any way, and removing her wouldn't change a thing.
This is pretty insulting to anyone with a disability. We're talking about a group who in the real world are often marginalised, and literally wheeled into corners to be ignored. The developers made quite a big deal before release about them featuring a disabled character in their game, and this is the result?
So... yeah. I really hope that eventually she becomes super important. Maybe she gets sick of being ignored and stuck in that back corner and she goes all supervillain?
