#Nobody ever no matter who they are

See this is such a perfect example of shit that you can’t really blame SSE specifically for, because no company ever no matter how good their QA team is or how good their tech is, could’ve ever playtested for this
No company will Ever be able to predict that specific select generations of a specific brand’s hardware is going to specifically affect the game in this way, that’s just impossible
This is also why it’s taking a bit to solve it because, as I said, you Cannot physically playtest for this, and if you could nobody would ever think to do so
#Blame them for shit they intentionally do that they have choices over#See AI candles and all the fuck that#This however#Nobody ever no matter who they are#Could've ever playtested for

Obsessively reading everything in game by and about Gortash and the dude is
On a philosophical trajectory that ends in immortality thru technology / the machine
Doesn't have an original bone in his body, but he can backwards engineer anything
Halfway to being a decent scientist but doesn't have the education and is deeply impatient
Overconfident in the veracity of his own results and conclusions
Accurately predicted that the brain would metamorphose and become more difficult to control and then did nothing about it
Outsources his propaganda / arts and humanities
Charming, but he got there in a Pavlovian way (learned from trial and error and probably doesn't consciously know how he does it)
Vindictive af (learned / reinforced)
Darwinian (in the worst way)
Sociopathic, obviously, but extremely Rationalist about it
Never asks questions he doesn't know the answer to and probably thinks this makes him sound more authoritative
Completely incompetent as a strategist (but doesn't know it)
Not nearly as narcissistic / full of himself as he pretends to be
Thinks what he wants is praise but it's never enough because it's not actually what he wants (he wants to be wanted)
Bane makes him feel wanted (conditionally)
Durge made him feel wanted (unconditionally)
Understands intellectually that Durge got ambushed, but he feels abandoned
See also: thematic parallels between Gortash and
Silouv Yali (the Adamantine Forge & the construct Grym)
Oliver (in the shadow-cursed lands)
Astarion and Gale, obviously
#bg3#Gortash#bg3 gortash#Enver Gortash#bg3 spoilers#'The Ultimate State' reads like it was written in reaction to Durge's disappearance#Yeah if everyone's tadpoled nobody will be able to abandon you ever again#Durge's job was to do murders in Baldur's Gate#but their REAL job was to tell Gortash not to keep the brains of all of his mechanical soldiers in one location#Oliver thought Thaniel abandoned him so Oliver created new friends to play with *eyebrow waggle*#This man wants to abandon the flesh for the machine so bad#He is in for a bad time no matter what#Awfully obsessed with control for someone who has absolutely no control over his current situation#I do not think that word means what you think it means#Absolute moron (affectionate)

I looked at my fanart of War Crimes with Anduin holding himself dying with Chromie, and I decided I wanted to draw more Anduin trauma with dragons...(wip)
#world of warcraft#anduin wrynn#onyxia#Do you think this man has ever had a therapist?#I think hes stubborn and goes to the one required visit he was mandated to go to and tells her hes fine and then stews in it till he dies#He likes to be a therapist he does not like when someone talks therapy at him#at least I headcanon#'none of this matters because ive got work to focus on' twenty years later he sees mawrats in the corners of his eyes still#The moment someone SHOULD be talking therapy at him he runs away and dissappears for three...four....five years? by the end of Dragonflight#bRo dont talk to NOBODY he is NOT letting them know he hallucinates mawrats#anyway i think he focused so hard on his dad being home that he pushed all his onyxia trauma down for it to fester later in his life#Its the snow which beings the snowball that idunno does something later in life who knows#I think too much about a fictional man's mental health and not enough about my own#mayhap a reason he is thy comfort character

And this includes artists who made their AUs centered around a sans or papyrus.
#imported right outta twitter. something about it makes me want to speak up more about stuff like this#listen its true that there are tons of people who made their undertale AUs skeletons focused and not the rest of the main cast#and if that's a pet peeve to you that is fine#but consider that you can't tell people what type of content they should create and enjoy#go give your sans overpowered skills and flashy outfits and the most tragic backstory ever#be FREE#..i really hope nobody takes this in the wrong way. or context.#ive just seen too much negativity surrounding the utmv topic#typically towards the people who is a part of it#i may draw more canon-compliant stuff rn but i still respect tf of yall who continue to produce utmv content#no matter what you saw people say about yall always remember that you're one of the pillars that kept the fandom going#the creativity ive seen from yall is absolutely INSANE#so. chin up. go throw your sans to the deepest pits of hell and back. expose him to the horrors beyond his understanding#if that makes you happy

Saw a YT vid with the title, "Fandom Can't Handle Asexuality"
You're right, they can't... Because it doesn't fucking exist to them.
#aroace#asexual#enby people arent real either#we're told to stop using neopronouns and to stop being aroace bc 'nobody will take LGBT seriously'#keep being exclusionary#i dont want to be your friend if you're gonna act like that#I'm a genderqueer aroace person who's pronouns are it/its and you're gonna fucking respect that or be called a bigot#this shit has got to stop#also... because it matters#dont be ableist#ever. just dont#one of the main reasons i hate Alastor so much... is the fandom's treatment of him as a character#most of them completely erase his sexuality in favor of shitty crack ships.#I think a QPR with Lucifer or Rosie is a cute idea! but that's it#keep Vox pining for Alastor... that's great too#its like when I tried to erase Porter Gage's Bisexuality.... It was wrong and I've changed (Fallout 4's romanceable companions are cannonic#cannonically bisexual... I don't make the rules) I was just mad because someone had MY BLORBO in a disgusting ship and I got sick of seeing#it... And THEN I learned how to block tags!!!#idk where this is going#i'm just upset that aros and aces and enbys are erased#maybe it's a confirmation bias and i've just spent too long doing demographic research#i HATE demographic research#it takes me to disgusting places#i need to find my sewing patterns so I can refocus my energy into something good

So was nobody going to tell me May gets three roses* before she even wins her first ribbon, or was I just supposed to find this out through the archived version of those old bulbapedia ship articles that I found?
*the third rose is technically AFTER she won her first ribbon, but it's still the same episode as the ribbon obtainment, so close enough
#this is where the 'something like that' comes in too‚ by the way#her first ribbon.#it's canonized ON HER FIRST RIBBON that he's already dropping the pretense#which like isn't THAT early in the series bc she takes a while to get started#BUT LIKE KJHDFSKJDFHORIUEGHDFJ STILL?#contestshipping#pokemon may#pokemon drew#coordinator may#coordinator drew#<<<did we ever decide which of these we're using. whatever it doesn't matter#nobody talks about these two anymore. free real estate‚ baby!#i'll use both. who's gonna stop me??? the six other contestshipping fans?#all of whom are at least my mutuals? if not people i bother on discord three times a day?#hi guys btw <3

i saw a post on twt that said
"They never want to discuss what triggered you. Just how you reacted."
and immediately i thought of billy and all the antis that use his fight with steve as a way to paint him as villain or act like his anger was unjustified. he didn't just beat steve's ass bc he felt like it. y'all ignore the red flags steve was just flaunting and acting as if billy was wrong for reacting the way he did.
billy is clearly a person whose been hurt by adults, in more ways than the show let on, and he thought he was saving max from forcibly growing up in the same ways he had to.
he thought he was protecting her, and instead max was added to the list of people who have done billy wrong and failed to care about what their actions would do to an already messed up kid. (she too, thought she was doing the right thing in the moment, but nobody ever focuses on how max could've easily killed him with sedatives meant for an otherworldly being.)
it's always "he's violent and racist!" and never "he's violent and intolerant from years of abuse and forced ideals"
if you are born of a bad environment, and you're forced to stay in that environment, guess what happens? you are more likely to become a victim of circumstances and your upbringing than to stop the cycle forced onto you.
billy never stood a fighting chance because no one ever bothered to find out why he acted the way he did, they just called him a bad guy and moved on with their lives like he didn't matter.
and to them, and all the characters in the show, billy truly didn't matter.
#billy hargrove#billy antis dni#billy hargrove deserved better#billy hargrove protection squad#harringrove#steve harrington#hargrove mayfield siblings#billy hargrove character study#quotes that remind me of billy#im always so hurt when i think of nobody hearing billys cries to be seen or even just heard#billy hargrove deserved love#billy hargrove was dealt a shitty hand and he did what he could with it#in the end it didnt matter if he thought he was keeping her safe#or if he was abused for majority of his life#bc hes the bad guy right?#hes the irredeemable villain#an unloved lonely teenage boy is the worst person to ever live?#apparently so#god I hope billy antis never meet victims like a lot of billy stans (myself included) bc you all want us to be uwu baby victims#who cry at loud noises#but the reality some of us are violent and self destructive but thats all we know#all we were taught#fuck billy antis

listen this might be something that seems obvious to me because I actually like the art of film and storytelling and art in general, but maybe… don’t make movies based off of old movies you very obviously hate. Why should I watch your remake if all you do is shittalk the source material you based it off of? How is that supposed to convince me your “new and improved” version is going to be better if you keep telling me the bar is literally rock bottom?
#Snow white remake#that movie isn’t even out yet and already everyone involved is making me hate it#“Snow white shouldn’t be black” you’re right she should be eastern asian and not white.#“She’s not a helpless princess who needs a prince to save her” then don’t remake snowwhite#A story that’s famous for the sleeping princess awoken by true love’s kiss trope????#Make your own fucking story then?????#Why do you hate the original animated snowwhite so much#Everyone who’s into films and animated films and disney loves snowwite cus it’s the first feature length animated film EVER#it’s a pioneer whether you think it’s feminist or not#If you keep slamming it for not following the feminist rules of 2023 in the year 1937 you’re alienating your audience before your movie is#Even released#You’re chasing away the audience that you’re supposed to be on the same side on#“Oh you love this movie? So do I! So I tried to do smthn with it that gave it the justice it deserves”#Instead of this whole “actually we’re better than 1937 lol have some uninspired shit that nobody’s gonna enjoy”#I’m so sick of this shit#Every disney remake has to fix past mistakes but it’s not making anything Good in the meantime#And you’re losing the audience you’re trying to reach in the meantime#Doesn’t matter if you like the new barbie movie or not but that one’s actually doing what you’re trying to do RIGHT

random vent(?) in the tags, feel free to ignore i just have a lot of pent up emotions to get out today apparently
#mar.txt#it's weird being aro(?) and yet also longing for a relationship. maybe its just bc almost all of my friends are in one#maybe it's bc of how easily jealous i get#maybe its the fact that i'm constantly being reminded that i am nobody's most important person. there's always someone more important.#maybe it's just the all-consuming，gaping hole of loneliness within me#idk.#i don't even know if i AM actually aro or if i'm just so demi that i may as well be aro or if ive just had so many bad experiences that it#feels impossible for me to feel romantic attraction#a few of my ocs (shara and the alatreon) are how i think i'd describe myself; aro，but willing to be in a relationship provided the other#person isn't bothered by them being aro，bc they have their own equivalent to romantic feelings#i know i'll never have one though. for all my confidence and whatnot i still very much am insecure about my own loveability. because the#only thing life has shown me is that i very much am not loveable. all the way back in first grade ppl were already using me instead of#actually caring#'dating' me to make someone else jealous. so they could have a drug buddie. a fuck buddie. so they could try to manipulate me into things#because i was a young teenager desperate for validation and to feel like i mattered and belonged and they were nearly adults who knew they#could exploit that. i'm surprised i never had anything happen to me beyond being pressured into trying chew tobacco (awful and disgusting)#and doing it every time i was around my 'boyfriend' and his friends#the only two genuine relationships i had didn't last either; one lost feelings after three years and the other just sorta stopped talking to#me and iirc eventually picked up a boyfriend that was actually local instead of long distance#i am not worthy of love. i will never be loved in the way that my friends are. hell i won't ever even find a qpp(?). and that makes me sad.#to know i will always be alone. that i'm destined to die alone. but it is what it is i guess. i just wish it didn't bother me so much.#i wish i could be content in my loneliness and not be jealous of everyone around me. i wish i could accept that i will never be anybody's#most important person. that the only person i can or will ever be the most important to is myself. self love，yeah? ha.#maybe 2024 will have something in store for me. god i hope it does. but i doubt it will. more of my friends will get into relationships，#those already in them will stay in them and/or take a step forward in their relationship. and i will remain alone. just as i always have.#anyways. sorry vent over i'm just. ugh. upset today. emotions are stupid and i want a refund on them. i did not ask to be saddled with the#burden of feeling such intense，suffocating displacement and loneliness. i did not ask to feel these negative emotions so strongly.#i just want to be someone's most important person. i just want to matter.

worst thing on earth finding out you're perceived in a fandom
#i am a literal nobody who does not matter. and not a presence or voice in anything that happens here or anywhere ever#i post like 20 different random interests a day.#i'm barely even active in anything i just reblog stuff. i am not real.#anything i say has no merit and i'll shut up permanently forever eventually i promise. wish i'd done that already but we all make mistakes!#every time i come on here i have fun new reasons to feel anxiety

I wish I had a job cleaning up dead bodies because it feels like the only job I might fidn tolerable long-term. No need to do much thinking, minimal socialising and I'm not spooked by dead bodies so it wouldn't weight down on me.
#d#I'm doing this thing again where I'm posting but I can't get myself to look at the dash#I'm really antsy over other people#I always am but more than usual#I feel like even though my circumstances are better now than before#I feel worse than I've ever been#I can neither move on from the few relationships I botched and the lack of 'subtitute' worsens things#I just feel a different form of suicidal#Neither antsy and impulsive nor passive in the background#It feels like an active looming suicidality but one of resignation#A verh definite feeling of wanting to give up because nothing's going to improve#I cannot make the people I look up to even recognise I exist#And I have nothing going on for myself in isolaion#I just can't think of a reason to live and nobody's giving me any or answering my questions and pleas#It's like my frantic resentment is just a small sort of gloominess#One where it's difficult to resist the impulse for dying because it makes no meaningful difference#My life isn't valuable to the people I like so it's evident it makes no difference when I die#I've become too weak to sustain myself so I'm dependent on people who ignore me no matter how directly I try to ask for them to help#And I feel sick that I still feel like people think my problem is just that I'm too stubborn to 'ask for help'#As if there's anything subtle about how I feel and what I want#It may simply be pointless to ask and I disappoint myself by holding hope for anything#What a loathsome existence... years of effort to find I have never done anything meaningful or good is haunting me forever#At the very least I would die with a little more contentment if I could feel like my existence and actions were valuable#Not in the half-hearted 'everyone is intrinsically valuable' way#I want merit for something I chose to put effort in#Not because I want 'merit' alone but because I want the choice itself to matter#Because it just feels too much like it doesn't matter what I choose because everything I do is pointless and ineffectual#Knowing an action I did had the desired consequence makes me feel like there is still a 'point' to actively choosing and doing and changing#But because nothing comes out of my attempts despite the amount of effort suicide does not merely feel 'simple'#It feels inevitable in the way that the sun must always set at night

woodelf68 replied to this post:
I was a book fan first, but I honestly never form much of a visual image of characters when I read a book, so it didn't matter to me.
Cool, but that doesn't mean it can't matter to other people.
There's a very weird assumption in a lot of Tolkien fandom discourse that caring about actors actually looking like their characters is trivial and shallow, they cast for talent not appearance etc etc, so casting Anglo actors in non-Anglo roles is totally okay—unless, of course, casting for talent and not appearance results in heroic roles going to people other than pale, mostly light-haired, mostly Anglo white actors, at which point the fandom has screaming meltdowns.
And frankly, film fans always show up to make this about their personal preferences whenever anyone tries to discuss the problems with the films' casting. Yeah, it's a personal gripe in this particular case, but for those of us who do care about both this instance and the more problematic wider trend in the casting of the films, it's deeply frustrating that we still can't criticize it without fans of the movies rushing in after 20 years.
I thought it was great casting because they LOOK like they could be brothers,
They do, as do many other actors.
and I can't picture the characters any other way anymore.
Yeah, that's actually a major reason that some of us care a lot about this. For one, it can simply be irritating that we rarely see depictions of our favorite characters that look remotely like them, but more importantly, these sorts of choices shape the popular conception of what Middle-earth's heroes are allowed to look like.
And as a neighbouring realm to Rohan, I wouldn't expect them to look much different as far as ethnicity?
Uh ... if you're talking about what's visually effective on film, I think sharing a border on the opposite end of the country from where Boromir and Faramir live and where their families are from matters much less than differentiating the peoples in a clear way. The movies honestly seem largely disinterested in the ways in which Gondorians and Rohirrim are contrasting foils for each other even as they draw nearer in culture, and particularly clear foils in the ruling families—but that would require caring about Gondor to anything like the extent that they care about Rohan, which they evidently don't.
If you're talking about Tolkien's version, meanwhile, Gondor is a vastly more ancient nation than Rohan, and includes multiple ethnic groups that long predate the arrival of the Rohirrim from the North, and mostly look nothing like them. According to Tolkien, the Dúnedain of southern Gondor are very different from any of the Northern-inspired peoples of Middle-earth. He indignantly wrote that, while the Shire was indeed meant to represent England, Minas Tirith is 600 miles south (at around the latitude of Florence, Italy) while the great Gondorian port of Pelargir is at about the latitude of Troy (now in Turkey), and he insisted that his vision for Gondor was therefore not remotely Nordic.
Elsewhere, he repeatedly compared the Gondor of LOTR to the Byzantine Empire, and also said that the Dúnedain of Gondor were best envisioned as ancient Egyptians. Tolkien's depiction of the Gondorian peoples had lots of influences to be sure—but blond English people are not among them, and they are clearly meant to contrast visually with the Rohirrim in particular.
The movies' indifference to all this in terms of casting is one debate, but the matter of whether the casting for Gondor is accurate to Tolkien's descriptions in or out of LOTR is very straightforward. It's not.
#adaptations overwriting people's capacity to imagine anything differently is like ninety percent of why it matters#but seriously this fandom is like ... throwing screaming tantrums bc tar míriel might be implied to be pale if you squint#but nobody is allowed to criticize the aggressively and non-canonically anglo casting of the movies ever#so there's a lot of accumulated annoyance for those of us who don't like it#woodelf68#respuestas#legendarium blogging#legendarium fanwank#ondonórë blogging#pj critical#long post#anghraine rants
