Heh she is the living embodiment of the phrase, that's for sure.
Loses her brother, doesn't get revenge, dies in the middle of nowhere and doesn't even get acknowledged by the main character. Only thing left is for a Worg to come and drop a turd on her corpse as a final insult.
Sheesh, even Mayrina's story is not this depressing and that girl lost everyone.
Honestly not even against storylines like that. Not necessarily sure how I feel about it regarding Arka this early in the game (I do think it is too harsh too early actually), but I think having unwinnable, grim, downright depressing stories lends a bit of realism. In my personal life experience, shit really does just happen.
Yeah, I’m okay with not being able to save everyone … well, not okay, but I think it makes for a better, more emotionally engaging story if there’s a bit of tragedy thrown into the mix.
But I agree with the OP and everyone else who has complained that Arka’s story seems unfinished. As folk have said, it would be good to have some more evidence of what exactly happened to her, some acknowledgement from the main character or companions, and to know where Memnos got to.
