As a player and everything she was doing. I missed all of that as well live but any time it comes up ppl come out of the woodwork to talk about it

Yeah, Fandom is usually a lot more aggressive about calling out stuff now as a result, because Emily straight up left social media as a result of ACoC experience. The worst parasocial impulses took over for a young space of fans and mostly ppl not liking character/story choices bled into judging her

Yeah, I feel this. Same with SW'ers sometimes as they're promoting other SW'ers. I don't mind the reposting at all except for when it's a wall of them like 15 in a row and dominates the feed.

Adjusted folks mean it as their interests align fantastically and they cover each others weaknesses and so on. While they mean it like a spreadsheet where his value as a man perfectly equals her value as a women.
Thus you don't create love, you just find it after scouring endless waves of women

So they end up pigeonholed into endlessly chasing some fiction of a women in their head because love really kind of just becomes, imo, their way of saying "this man is exactly as rich and handsome as his wife is beautiful". We all might think "they were made for each other" about a couple but well

So they view as not having their own set of desires and preferences that are singular to each person; and women are sort of thus only good and useful for being power symbols. The amount of women you can "get" & how beautiful they are, are shorthand symbols to convey how good they are at being a man.

The theoretical perfect man who is you know, 6'5 and ripped with a chiseled jaw and tons of money and power, would effectively be able to get any women, and I think they think of that literally, absolutely every women on earth would want that theoretical guy the most & any who wouldnt is "defective"

But so if everything is a commodity then of course love would also be. They don't think women are fully people in the way they are so they don't conceive of women as having various and fluid goals and desires. Hence you get a one size fits all approach to "how to attract women" where they think

And a very capitalistic point of view combining. Like, that's the thing (well, one of the things) with Trump is that he views all exchanges in terms of someone winning and someone losing. Hence the insane tariffs and trying to assert power and force other nations to accept being "losers"

I mean, to some degree just their entire set of beliefs is a shaky house of cards that was never meant to actually be examined because they certainly never have.
But more broadly, as it applies especially to steering younger or more impressionable folks away from conservatism, largely misogyny

Many thoughts, almost all involving several variations in pitch and loudness of "yes"

Actually allowing him to progress well in the games once he understood them better. That the "git gud" mentality of the toxic fans pushed him away from games that are compelling for better reasons because really anyone can beat a FromSoft if you learn, it doesn't require Ikaruga precision inputs

"Games that don't fake the space" by Jacob Gellar also touches on Fromsoft. And I particularly love Noah Caldwell Gervais' videos on the FromSoft games because they come from the perspective of someone who is, by his own admission, pretty dogshit at playing games. And the genius of the design

Regarding to those games, Jacob Gellar has more as well. Specifically about all the things in Spec Ops that don't get talked about in the standard thinkpieces about the game and its legacy www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KSl...
And the nature of FromSoft's difficulty www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W4l...

A nonexhaustive list of options after scrolling through all my youtube subs. Some specifically for that video, others for general vibe of that creator and what they make because too many for me to write an intro explanation for each link lmfaooo

Actively watching the SuperEyePatchWolf playthrough of F&H2 right now after watching his playthrough of every ending in first game a year or two ago. Fascinating stuff even if not precisely the game for me
