BOOK THREAD 2024-2025 Starting this thread a little late in the year, so it'll go through 2025 With each post I'll add UP TO 3 images: a description of the book, a longer discussion if needed, and a marked spoiler discussion if needed.

@BenisKen He arguably doesn't even really want that. America as an entity doesnt really matter to him, he wants everyone in his homeland to have the self affirmation to fight and kill for their dreams and what they think is right. Even if he disagrees. Hell maybe especially if he disagrees

What Armstrong wants is a nation of strength that no longer bows to it's own sloth, the antithesis of what the patriots desired. What he does to achieve that is several counts of terrorism against his own country and stoking the fires of war to get elected.

The recipe for a good villain is give them a philosophy that is theoretically sound and correct but make the loops they go to to make that lhilosoohy real incontrivably immoral.

@CripplingSwag @RinoTheBouncer @merlino_games In my opinion though if you are engaged you are automatically having fun, and vice versa. I've never once been engaged in a game and not had fun with it Also enjoyment doesnt necessarily mean positive emotions only. By that logic, horror games by definition can NOT be fun

"fun" being a requirement for games is what keeps this medium from being taken seriously you're going to tell me Requiem for a Dream, The Downward Spiral, Blood Meridian, Guernica, etc, are "fun"? masterpieces have to be interesting, not necessarily "fun"

@WeGhoStyle @tulliwulli Which, btw, theres a pretty big disconnect between "doing nothing" and "ursurping a country" but whatever man lmao you people will say anything to justify stomping on others. Pray the boot never comes down on you.

@WeGhoStyle @tulliwulli "We want to take over this country because we want it" isnt exactly a good reason. Also imperialism is LITERALLY the act of "extending one nation's power over another" It doesnt matter if china takes control and does nothing. The act of taking control IS imperialism.

@WeGhoStyle @tulliwulli So Taiwanese people have no agency and have no right to choose for themselves? I'm glad you can at least be honest about how much of a piece of shit human you are

@AcedeLaForet @tulliwulli Because Taiwan and China were separated by the Japanese, and now they want a unified China. “Want independence so bad” Yea because Taiwan is a U.S. supported puppet in the region. They aren’t independent, they are the US’s play toy if anything happens with China

@vanillycringus @luseluseluse I think a lot of This stems from people thinking fun = positive When you realize fun can go along with any emotion, like terror, sadness panic, ect, AND you don't have to have fun with every bit of a game to have fun with it, it becomes much much harder to find any game not fun

@luseluseluse I get what hes saying but this particular discourse feels hollow to me. There isnt a single work of art across any medium, that i like, that i havent had fun with, even if "fun" is not the intended emotion. I mean this across the board, even Pathologic 1, or Saló or something.

@CrimsonSmasher @luseluseluse Art can be almost everything and almost nothing, it literally depends on the person. In a similar way, games only has 1 real characteristic: tha ability to play them. Even then thats a little murky because walking sims exist as fun, enjoyable, and high quality games

@luseluseluse You're agreeing with the guy who, when prompted, will say art has a narrow and set definition.

@Kryptomightguy I disagree. Edge of time is a competent peter, insomniac peter is incompetent and, with the context of 2, i think it's clear they depicted him that way with the intention of replacing him with miles. Which i think harms the game and both characters

This Peter is a better what a mature, experienced, Spider-Man should be. Insomniac’s WANTS to present theirs being like that, but fails. Despite being Spider-Man for 8 years, they have him still acting like his high school-college self and getting smacked around too much.

@Noonevipk @Ser_Crotum You know you...didnt actually say anything about them slaughtering humans. You cant seperate demons from humans, they actively seek people out to do harm. They will kill elderly, vulnerable, and children alike. I thought leftist prided themselves on empathy, yet I've noticed-

These “terrible people” of the left don’t like it when Frieren spouts this nonsense towards a sentient and sapient people group that just so happen to mostly look like humans 🤔

Part of what Death interesting in The Last Wish is how vindictive he really is, and when you look at it, you can see where he’s coming from. I’d say he’s more of a force of nature than an outright villain, which makes the existence of someone spitting in his face with their existence and minimizing his meaning into something cheap really piss him off to the point of breaking the rules. What’s even cooler is that Death also recognizes the weight of Life. He’s not against the concept, he understands it completely and knows his role in giving it that weight. To see Life itself treated so cheaply plays into his vindictive drive as well. Only when Puss realizes both the value of life and death does Death stop. He gets irritated, of course, but is nuanced enough to recognize that Puss is finally giving the process of living its proper due, so he goes back to his duty. God, The Last Wish was so good.
O'Donnis@HowdyPeepos

People who say "Death is just doing his job" makes me think we didn't watch the same film. Since Death made his first appearance, he has been maliciously tormenting Puss. The Cave of Lost Souls scene literally tells us that he's going against his role as Death to Kill Puss.

@AcedeLaForet @tulliwulli What resources is China stealing from Taiwan? What type of oppression do the Taiwanese people face from China? What type of imperial action do you speak of? Is it only hypothetical land grabs?

@ChiChi_Verse @ChronoLuminaire 139 is such a low power level to be moon level. It both puts into perspective just how powerful these fighters get and also throws it out of perspective, as the amount of growth they have is just inconceivable to us as humans. We can simply not visualize the difference between-

If you actually take the power of 10,000 required to destroy a planet and divide it by the mass of the Moon of 81 in Dragon Ball You actually get a power level of 123, which lines up with Master Roshi's 139 when he destroyed the moon, which holds up Meaning you can use this lol
