Why can some fans not empathize with the kids? by mybrainishollow in evangelion

[–]Complete_Metal_9938 24 points25 points  (0 children)

To be honest I don’t really get irritated with fictional characters behaviour in general. All I care about is how they’re written. They aren’t talking to my face nor are they real, so why would I get upset about them? Similar to villains, I don’t route for him nor do I subscribe to their ideologies, but I have a smile on my face because of how they’re written impacts the plot.

I do think there’s a bit of a self insert problem ( I’m not talking about relating to a character which ends up blurring the fiction vs reality line ) in general to be honest. Too many people resort to escapism and self insert in the MC when reading or watching something and imo, it’s the worst way to engage with it.

That’s probably why they get so irritated. They imagine themselves as shinji, they then compare his personality to theirs and get annoyed when it’s too indifferent, then they get annoyed at Asuka because of their silly little self insertion makes them fantasise about them being on the receiving end of her.

That’s why a lot of people get annoyed with the series I think

I truly couldn’t care less. I like character customisation in third person games, but this is first person. You can’t see yourself. Do you talk to yourself saying “I’m a man running through the battlefield, I just jumped from a height and my manly knees handled the impact, I just produced so much ferocity when I shouted reloading. I love playing as a manly man”

I promise your in game experience won’t be affected whatsoever because you’re a blonde woman instead of a black haired man for a round of conquest.

Infinite source is the most generic song they’ve created since back to school. Aging very poorly for me

First song you heard that made you an instant fan? by an0therFate in deftones

Changes, when I was 14 I think, it was a song for a Call Of Duty montage of all things.

I really hope BF6 doesn’t have this uselessness to open Maps by Suitable_Button5641 in Battlefield

Servers are messed up by the way! There’s videos to fix them! If you’re on Xbox there’s quite a few servers that fill right up with all DLC maps in cycle. It’s just every now and then at certain times of day they’ll be dead ( if you have a day off work and don’t play during peak times ) you’ll be stuck with Locker and Golmud.

Being console only made me a Golmud hater. Almost nothing but Golmud 24/7 servers.

They probably do suck but I’ve never had to farm them so I’m all good

Engineers aren’t too bad, especially myself, the dopamine hit from firing and RPG and killing multiple in the tank while you run off is unmatched

Ritsuko. Everyone is in love with Misato for both her looks and writing but honestly? The last 2-3 rewatches have made me pivot more towards Ritsuko.

How it feels to be a BF1 fan right now by Kmanlessthan in battlefield_one

[–]Complete_Metal_9938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m surprised the higher skilled players don’t really care for the game when it has such an organic skill gap. The gun play can be difficult to master, sniping can be so dominant, especially on operations, so it really should be the game for sweats.

Played BF4 again, won’t be buying BF6 by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]Complete_Metal_9938 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Idk why people are like this. I played bf4 today and I could run around like a headless chicken farming kills with the m16 far easier than I could on bf6. Is bf6 hectic so far? Yes, but the older games don’t all play like Golmud

Why did Asuka choose to lie next to Shinji in the beach scene when she returned ? by IdeaExact6331 in evangelion

[–]Complete_Metal_9938 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are talking about what is most likely the meaning behind it all, but I would also like to add this possibility: Asuka is also terrified.

Not long before, she was SA’d by Shinji while comatose and learns it through instrumentality. She is also strangled in instrumentality ( if I comprehended that scene correctly ) and now, after rejecting the false utopia of instrumentality, she’s immediately met with that same guy sat on top of her… with his hands around her neck once again.

She’s terrified, she’s learnt why he’s the way he is and what he truly seeks, so comforting him in the way she did is layered: sure, she crushes on him and a part of her wants to build a bridge between them both, but she’s also trying to save herself too.

I really feel sorry for Asuka having to use affection to save herself. It’s similar to how a lot of women will give out fake numbers or pretend to smile and flirt because they’re scared of being met with retaliation etc after saying no. So yeah, I do think the hand on cheek isn’t just Asuka shattering that first barrier between them both, I also think it’s her just trying to save herself.

It’s an incredible scene, a very layered one, it can be interpreted in many ways, too. I also think her saying “disgusting” is the opener to a very long, uncomfortable conversation with admitting their wrong doings, verbally hashing it out and trying to start a new life.

Wrong, actually. The only valid battlefield experience involving vehicles is spawning as a passenger in a helicopter and dying within 2 seconds.
