In Chapter 10 of Frankenstein, the creature indeed uses threats to try to control Victor, demanding that he creates a mate for him or else he will seek revenge on him and his loved ones. While this approach may have been effective in getting Victor's attention, it ultimately did not result in the creature achieving his goals.
In my opinion, the creature could have more effectively interacted with Victor by appealing to his empathy and compassion. Instead of threatening him, the creature could have tried to reason with Victor and explain the deep loneliness and isolation that he has been experiencing. By sharing his own feelings and experiences, the creature could have created a stronger emotional connection with Victor, potentially leading him to be more willing to help.
Furthermore, the creature could have approached the situation with a more collaborative mindset, working together with Victor to find a solution that would benefit both of them. By emphasizing their shared humanity and common goals, the creature could have fostered a sense of mutual respect and trust, potentially leading to a more productive and positive interaction.
Overall, while the creature's approach of using threats to control Victor may have been effective in the short term, I believe that a more empathetic, collaborative, and compassionate approach would have been more effective in achieving his long-term goals.
