She's seriously underrated,man. Sure,she may not be important to the case itself,but she's actually really helpful. :penny:

She helps alert the player of Cody in the first day,gives us info on the Steel Samurai and the accident on the last day,and who could forget :pokeman:

on the second day?
Seriously,while Basil might have the funnier lines,Penny has:

* A very neat design (though in the artbook,she has a blue and white shirt instead of brown and white)
* A better personality
* And WAY more of a presence.

Seriously,am I alone on this? Everyone I talk to says that she's just a personality-less girl who's just there. :sadshoe:

The best crossover of all time.

Personality-less? She's a Steel Samurai fan. All SS fans have personality! How else are they supposed to be fans!

Jk, but I like Penny too. She quite reminds me of, well, me. If I was a character in-universe, I'm sure I'd be her. We usually calm but super hyped about fandom stuff kind of fans should always stick together. :3

I like Penny well enough, but nothing of that is true. :basil:

Okay,counterattack time!

Yeah,Penny may not be the the best character in terms of the three points,but I was comparing her to Lisa on those points. Lemme revise 'em:

*Okay,maybe design is subjective,but I really like how....brown she is? Lisa is too blue for me.
* In personality,Lisa has none. Penny,however,has a hilarious 'fangirl' side to her,as seen in day 2 of investigation.
* Finally,Lisa only appears in day two of investigation,while Penny is seen in all days,in completely different locations-Studio One,Employee Area,the Trailer,and the main gate. Lisa....only appears in her office,and you only have to go to her twice at least.

The best crossover of all time.

I was comparing her to Lisa, too. I just happen to be a huge fan of Lisa Basil, you see.
Lisa has a personality, a pretty robotic one, but that was the point. Penny is basically a normal fangirl, which I guess was also the point, but I tend to enjoy the most 'out there' characters, so to speak. So obviously I also like more Basil's design.
And regardless of screentime, Lisa left a much stronger impression on me. I remembered her role much better in my first replay. I'm not sure I even remembered that poor Penny existed at the time.

^Same. I wouldn't say I forgot Penny, but Lisa was border-line unforgettable. She was such a clever take on all those service people. Seeing her sweat and the robotic personality start to crack made me wonder if irl people like that would act the same way under pressure.

I guess y'all have a point,but Lisa was a bit..,straight forward,if you ask me. Penny had a twist to her:she seemed normal but was actually a huge fun on the Steel Samurai.

Also I love that they brought her back in GK2 for no reason :P

I think the one reason why Penny left such a strong impression on me when I first played was because she was basically me but with a different palette. Though, I'm not as fond of side-tails as I used to be.

Still holding out for the slimmest chance that Samurai trading cards become a real thing.
