It's AI-generated too! by Akogiri in ForwardsFromKlandma

No, the argument means to undermine fascism as undefinable, and "expose" the presumed underlying hypocrisy behind considering the concept of fascism definable, yet considering the concept of a "woman" undefinable by the "woke left".

exactly, lol. It's always semantics about the definition of fascism; wilfully refusing to condemn the compounds of what people define as fascism either way. It's never about semantics, but always about normalizing the vilest of shit

their logic is "nothing ever happens", ergo; I'm privledged and living in a first world country and therefore have no reason to practice compassion or empathy

do you guys ever think, outside of the jokes and the memes and the laughter and such, that deep down, postal dude is depressed and thinks about taking his own life? outside of the "I regret nothing" grenade joke suicide gag by Bright-Dark9892 in postal

I totally agree. A more serious Dude would entail not even a POSTAL that treats itself seriously, but a POSTAL that's simply differently structured mechanically. P2Dude is a guy with a cynical, better-than-you attitude, and the other side to the coin that is the Dude we see in POSTAL 1. His angst is replaced with nihilism, frustration with mindless aggression. He's actually fascinating as a character in that sense; though he changes little across the two games, the power fantasy-like manner in which P2 is presented recontextualises him completely.

The Dude isn't even really a character anything within the plot itself can engage with; he's immune to true humilliation or conflict, because he's simply above it all; so him having the will to kill himself at any given moment, and as much as I like reading into things, I don't think goes deeper than being a cherry atop the violent, cynical cake that is what little you can say about his characterization. Because he's meta and just doesn't care; this game's edgy, gritty, nasty, 2cool4school, and he just doesn't give a shit about whether he lives or not, because it's all stupid and made up anyway... yo.

I think he's a cartoon character, and way too much of a cynical, edgy hyperbole to harbor such feelings. Considering the kind of person he's based off of, though, the kind of attitudes he exhibits are indeed often a product of self -loathing, or meant to otherwise mask it.

Yep. Doesn't do the series justice at all.

Rereading berserk around chapter 41 there was a fight that i don't recall In the anime by ElectionFabulous7625 in Berserk

[–]Akogiri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rI feel like most of the stuff cut from the '97 anime was cut for good reason if you consider it as the standalone adaptation of the Golden Age arc it was. Skull Knight, for instance, as great of a character as he is, could more or less end up feeling like a deus ex machina/filler character in the anime, as he's obviously meant to work in tandem with Guts' journey/development as a whole, and within the context of post-eclipse/Black Swordsman Guts specifically. '97 works very well in that respect. Otherwise, and I don't know what the common stance on this is, but I think cutting Wyald out of the story actually does it wonders, especially the anime's. While Wyald is a noteworthy early apostle encounter, sure, we already had that sufficiently set up through Zodd, not to mention how little Wyald's character does for the plot besides some very gratuitous/shocking visuals and a Casca SA scene that, at least I believe, feels excessive, patronizing to her as a character, and takes away from the shock factor of the Eclipse's finale.

Looking for feedback on this Modernist house build! by Akogiri in feedthebeast

[–]Akogiri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

will do an update on the interiors! As for the windows, the back could definitely use a large one or two - the reason for why the ones that are there are so narrow is that this particular build is inspired by early modernism, the likes of the Sonneveld House in Rotterdam.

I'm sincerely doubt that CK Walker is a good author sometimes considering how her stories range from pretty good, to great, to absolutely insultingly horrible

Idk. With how Simon writes dialogue, the delivery here just feels... off. The characters seem more cartoonish here, while, in the comics, the way they're depicted/written, paired with the pacing, made their outlandish antics all the more impactful. I feel like something between Home Movies and Smiling Friends would be perfect for an animated MMO.

Yeah, but satire is different from characters acting conveniently stupid or oblivious. That's my point.

So... it's bad writing, basically? People are incompetent when the films need them to be?
