If that’s what you meant, anyway... No, I mean that your joke (which was a fine one) somehow provoked a harsh response despite it being just that - a joke. From there the same old discussion of subjectivity vs objective fact happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Internet. Never change. 32 minutes ago, Armagon said: Ngl, Three Houses' fanbase is pretty cringe. Dimitri gets treated as an UwU anime boy despite his redemption coming out of nowhere, the Golden Deer get treated as the objective best characters even though people only seem to care about Claude and the girls, you're appearently a communist if you like Edelgard and I've convinced myself people only like Rhea because of her ass because that's all I see when people talk about her. This has probably died down a bit and I know I'm generalizing but the Three Houses fanbase leans into cringe anime fanbases imo. I'm not sure if I would call this "Three Houses's fanbase" as much as "the FE subreddit." This type of behavior is what I see all the time whenever I take a stroll through there. Add to that the fact that the only thing to be found there is horny fanart 99% of the time, and well... The place's a shithole, honestly. I'm not saying everyone there is awful, or that it's awful all the time, but it's more common than I'd like. 3 minutes ago, Sooks said: I don’t know much about the fan base but I would still agree with all of that, the only exception being where you say people only care about Claude and the girls because there is a huge difference in the amount of Hilda/Marianne/Lysithea love I see than the Leonie love. Leonie is the bad female because she is not girly enough for the otakus talks about Jeralt too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even mad at these people, but it makes looking for discussion harder than it has to be when trying to search for anything more recent gets you swamped with art..

I automatically go to search by new every time I check that sub, it's a bit better than default, but 90% of it is still fanart, and 95% of said fanart is horny. Hell, a few weeks ago, someone (probably a trollposter from SPE or sth) commented on Samuria's BWS Ranked video saying that "there should be a discussion subreddit for this stuff because it's getting in the way of my fanart." Whether or not the person was just trolling, it's pretty emblematic of how bad that sub can get. At least the monthly threads are fun, and there's the occasional fanart that's cool or uncommon, such as the guy who does Dawn Brigade fanart (Not just Micaiah) every now and then.

But if I offended you, then I'm sorry for that. The same sentiment to you. I’m honestly just tired of people making the same tired-ass arguments about fates like I’m fine criticizing the game. Hell I have my own problems with it but when I hear the same old arguments over and over again that which I’ve already sort of argued my case against then it’s just a little tiring. Cause like I’ve heard the whole “these characters are one note” so often and it drives me insane because they’re just using buzz words that don’t mean anything like @Armagon said. Like I just hate it when people disrespect the art or artist and make sweeping generalizations without trying to understand what the story itself was trying to accomplish.

Would've been amusing if they had just used the original "10 seconds long big explosion" version, from the non-International edition of Japanese VII. A good call back to the fact Supernova wasn't the long animation added for the overseas versions of VII. Oh god it's awful, and even moreso when he decides to use it multiple times in sucsession! 1 hour ago, Ottservia said: Hey all I’m saying is that one note actually does have a concrete definition that some people don’t seem to quite understand I think theres a better way to say that.

Xenoblade's subreddit is similarly terrible although thankfully, most of the cringe is just confined to there.

Fanart which isn't even bad most of the time, mind, but there's so much of it and it clogs the sub. Though, at this point, I'd blame Reddit itself more than anyone. Reddit's interface is bollocks.

Edelgard stans and Dimitri stans having their own WW3 arguing which of the two mass murderers wasn't a mass murderer. Ah, yes. I heard tales of that, though I took care to stay away from the fights. Though, I must admit, Three Houses fans parading the game around as if it were the second coming of Jesus Christ played a part in my distaste for it. It annoyed me to see it revered so, while I, on the other hand, kept on noticing more and more glaring flaws that kept me from enjoying it as much as I'd like. I guess you could call me a contrarian for that. Of course, I myself had high expectations for the game. That was another part of my disappointment. Lesson learned for next time, I suppose.

Lightchao42 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I played Mercutio when my class went over Romeo and Juliet, which turned out to be a role I was born to play. Unfortunately I went on vacation so I couldn't perform his death scene. I also played the titular character of Julius Caesar, and was mildly disappointed when it turned out he wasn't the main character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
