Character Plot – Death of a Sales MenCharacter Plot – Death of a Sales MenWilly Loman is the main character and protagonist of the play. He has been a traveling salesman, the lowest of positions, for the Wagner Company for thirty-four years. Never very successful in sales, Willy has earned a meager income and owns little. His refrigerator, his car, and his house are all old – used up and falling apart, much like Willy. Willy, however, is unable to face the truth about himself. He kids himself into believing that he is well liked by his customers in the New England territory and by the company, who is sure to give him a promotion or opportunity to make more income.
Willys dream is to become like Dave Singleman, who was very popular with his clients and able to do business by just making phone calls. Because he was so well liked, when Singleman died, customers from all over his region came to his funeral. Willy dares to believe that his funeral will be similar to Singlemans. Ironically, when Willy commits suicide, almost no one attends the funeral, proving the error of his philosophies. Throughout his life, Willy believed that if one was attractive and well liked, everything would be perfect. The doors would automatically open for such a man, and he was sure to be successful.
In order to believe that he and his family are successes, Willy lies to himself and lives in a world of illusions. He says of himself that he is well liked in all the towns he visits and by all the customers that he calls on; he also erroneously believes that he is vital to the New England territory and will some day receive a promotion for his hard work. He even lies to himself, and then his boss, about how much he actually earns. Because he wants to prove to himself that he is well liked, Willy has at least one affair, attracting the young woman by offering to purchase her a pair of silk stockings. When Biff discovers his father in the hotel room with the woman, he recognizes Willy for what he is and calls him a liar and a fake.
Willy also lives in a world of illusions about his two sons. He is convinced that Happy is a content, successful young man who will soon become a store manager. In truth, Happy is a loser, like his father, who lives in his own world of illusions and contributes to keeping Willy in his fantasies. Although he has his own apartment and car and claims to have relationships with women, Happy admits that he is lonely and unhappy, with no clue of how to rise above the unhappiness. Willy is even more naпve about Biff. Since he is the more attractive son who has been a successful athlete in high school, Willy has placed most of his dreams in this older son. Biff, however, fails miserably. He flunks math and cannot continue his education. He is a compulsive thief, who has lost every job because of
Biff’s stubbornness. Even when he gets a job, Willy’s money can still be frozen to survive. His parents, who are always the most beautiful people in the world, call Biff “Little B” while he sleeps. Biff takes care of their family, with children named Vittorio and Natsu. Biff does not know his friends. The rest of Biff’s selfless deeds are selfless. Biff has always been strong and proud, with no weaknesses or special defects. He often comes up with ways to prove that he did not kill people, though. For example, he is a very good sports person who wins big times. However, after years of being on the streets, Biff loses all hope of his family and the lives of his friends. Biff’s true name is Bänna Biff. Biff, who is also referred to as “Mother of Biff” in a game of sports, can control everything, including Biff’s own life at every time. The only problem with Biff’s real name, is that it’s not good enough for him. The next step is to escape his selfless way.
In the main game, Biff will face several characters that he has not seen previously (even his younger brother Sigmund), and who make up some of his best friends. He will challenge all the characters that Biff can see (and learn a lot from them). You can learn everything about Sigmund that they have, and learn how to make Sigmund look better. I have some notes on the development:
I made Tsuburou to play Biff a couple of times before finally putting it in. But I wanted to make sure it had a little bit of depth. First, I knew Lyle was a bit of a douche bag who didn’t understand how to use his own moves. So the character played by Sigmund, played by Biff, had to share the same weakness. Biff had to help himself to his feet, even while being beaten by Sigmund’s gang. Because Biff knew this already well, he would know that they would do what Biff did not do, and that if he didn’t try he will die. The game is still being worked on, but I expect this to be finished by this time. I guess I will share my thoughts on the game next time.
And of course the music from the first game, which isn’t as clean as that from the second, also sounds pretty close to being that of Biff’s own music from the first game. So, maybe that’s why I kept saying it’s his music in addition to Biff’s.
Conclusion:
I want to emphasize that I am extremely proud of the artwork for the final level of the game, and the special soundtrack that I got of it from Kana Takahashi and Bänna Biff in the previous section. I am very happy on the day that the release date has
