>>78395142>Simon has a more personal relationship with his characters and their struggles>The characters in MMO actually suffer for their bad decisions and awful lifestyleAre you somehow confusing depression with narcissism and stubbornness?
The characters of MMO aren't too depressed to stop being assholes, they can't stop being assholes because they can't help but find flaws in everyone but themselves
They go out of their way to be assholes to others, people they don't even know, people that they do know, people that they literally depend on
The only character who might actually show signs of being depressed would be Owl, but even then, it's just him being the butt of the joke to literally all of his friends
There's a difference between being too depressed to change and being too much of an asshole to stop being an asshole
