Does anyone else think the story would have been more powerful if Dick's backstory had been less extreme?
Post Body

Like if he had just been an orphan or a neglected kid who had to screw someone over or fake his name in a more standard way to make it?

To me having the whole background of his childhood and then the Korea switcheroo just felt convoluted and just unbelievable. It also kind of "excuses" his existential crisis. A guy with his background will have serious issues regardless of his environment.

Just a thought, I'm sure there is something I'm missing.
