He says focusing on details and character traits can lead to superficial characters. He says liking a character comes down to two things, the fundamental weakness of the character and the character's goal in the story. He goes on to say that if you can create a goal for your hero which forces this person to deal with their deep weakness you have the makings for a great story.
