Nobody cares about character development or quality writing when the focal point is the jokes. But as soon as they flipped the switch and turned RWBY into a drama, they were doomed. Because without the comedy to distract from the one-dimensional characters and the repetitive plotlines, all eyes were on the technical aspects of M&K's writing. Wrong, wrong, wrong! RWBY was well written back in the beacon arc. It was only after they broadened their horizons and moved out into the world of Remnant that they forgot how to develop characters and started neglecting characters in favor of maidens, relics, and brother gods.
