The way Nancy treats Wade is so weird from the get go.
Like she tells him “that’s pretty philosophical for a guy wearing boots” and “you don’t look the type [to go into a bookstore]” with zero reason to make those assumptions. She’s literally just met this dude and knows nothing about him but keeps telling him to his face she thinks he’s an idiot?
Does Nancy just assume all southerners are idiots? Just all southern men? Why doesn’t she call Colton an idiot then? Wade is nothing but helpful and even tells her some incredibly personal information he was under no obligation to share?
His character is really one of the more interesting ones, an only child raised around his female cousins (all incredibly dramatic in their own right). He has an interest in genealogy, history, and ghosts while maintaining respect for the dead in a way a lot of ghost hunters don’t. He has a lot of respect for the living as well, even going to jail in an effort to end some pretty shady human rights violations perpetrated by his family (or at the very least his family’s representatives).
Then he says stuff like this that makes me question how the game could get an E10+ rating:
Just a little casual joke about Depression era bankers killing themselves, nbd. Kids don’t know what Black Tuesday was right? It’s fine.
All in all an interesting character I wish we learned more about.
YES OP Wade, unappreciated character.
