i just looked up what the japanese box art of Uncharted 2 is 😭







Apparently worldbuilding isn't a fundamental writing mechanic


they're right but only because world building and plot are also unimportant


@TheMediaDetec Most of the time “Worldbuilding” as a term actually means “System building” like rules and laws of the universe etc. which is rarely necessary





Powerscaling is not engaging with story. It’s using minor details and fun facts to make an argument for a hypothetical scenario that you made up in your head.



Yes it is The point of powerscaling in a story is to make sure that the characters and stories have proper stakes and to make sure it stays consistent

I don’t care if Stan Lee said it. I don’t care if Jack Kirby said it. Powerscaling MATTERS if you are telling stories where conflicts are primarily solved through combat, even more so if said conflicts involve supernatural abilities. This shouldn’t be a debate y’all are annoying


The key to understanding “Media/Content Fandom Enjoyers” is that they view fiction as a literal transcription of events that took place in the fictional world. There is no such thing as author’s intent, cultural context, narrative and themes, etc. there is just “what happened”.


@TheMediaDetec Ok, poorly worded. My point is that worldbuilding is a specific thing only relevant to some sub-genres. Establishing the specific setting is important again and again in every scene in every type of story. You dont need to worldbuild in most fiction, but you always need a setting
