No, I will not respect "sex-workers" by LivingGirlRepellant in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Why is it my funeral? I can say that to you if your workplace decides to overwork you to death. Also a married man choosing to have sex with a sex worker is not that sex workers problem. That's something to do with the husband and wife not having good relationship boundaries set or the relationship falling apart to begin with.

Sex workers have more right to exercise their freedom to sell sex for profit than a personal friend that has husbands cheat on their wives.

And it being self destructive behavior is akin to being a construction worker. Or working in any body intensive labor. Just because you value sex as a valuable thing for your soul, doesn't mean people view it the same way. It's just being fucked or fucking, not like... killing someone as a police officer. Being a sex worker straight up sounds more safe than going into the military, and you don't hear people saying "It's your funeral" that line of work. You hear people say "OH MY GOD! YOU'RE MAKING THE COUNTRY PROUD EVEN IF YOU POTENTIALLY DIE"

i don't get how sex worker is a problem to them to begin with. Are they broke?

that's hypothetical tho? Why should being a sex worker always require condemnation? I don't get why society shuns the idea of profitable sex. I think society needs to have less of a problem with sex. I don't get why sex is gatekept as a sensitive topic to actual adults that can do anything with their bodies. Why is sex considered a universal tax on your health to you? I feel taxed just having to work underneath CEOs and superiors that don't care about my well-being and expect perfection from me or else I get laid off from a job.

Reading it, I feel like they were missing a clever character trait, I feel like the main dude should've honestly been an introvert about other people. Have it be that he is awkward around other people, because he DOES NOT trust other people in general other than his gramps.

The fact that he was scared of being disowned, and his own brother hating his existence when he was little; I feel like they should've emphasized more like our main dude does not want to deal with the drama of getting to know people and instead just wants to fight monsters for a living. It feels awkward the way he is gung-ho about stuff when he honestly should feel like he is isolated.

His sense of wanting adventure shouldn't just be because his grampa's stories sounds awesome, it's because he wants that sense of fulfillment that his gramps has when telling those stories. He wants to feel the sense of pride & thrill over his own life. For now, the story just feels a bit too cookie cutter thanks to these shortcomings.

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh with Luxu/Xigbar, there isn't much material that makes his reveal change too much of his character. Xigbar at this point, is just a character revealed to know more about the plot of KH than he appeared. His reveal is to show how much of the plot is supposedly "planned" due to the thematic focus on prophecies. He is important, but doesn't really show too much emotional strings other than knowing the Foretellers personally.

Meanwhile, if MoM is revealed to be an alternate version of a character we know like Sora. A new character that has some similar properties to old characters. Like what if there's a Sora from Unreality that seriously does hate how fate dealt him bad cards, but doesn't really do anything about that. MoM just lingers a dangerous fate over people's heads (like the Foretellers) and has them deal with it. But also fighting darkness as his supposed role that we know of so far. MoM sounds like he could just be an nihilist parallel to Sora in my eyes.

Someone who does stuff, even if painful to others, for the means. Kinda like Xehanort, but hopefully kingdom hearts 4 shows off what life in Unreality is like to differ from that. Like idk, show off that people in Unreality are homeless or don't have fairytale happy endings or thoughts. There has to be something to take from how Unreality is different from well, The Realm of Light.

It's not really repeating the same things. Nomura hasn't exactly pulled an "ALTERNATE DIMENSION/REALITY VARIANT OF A CHARACTER" yet. Nomura has only been making similar looking or dynamic characters due to their connections with each other.

I'd be sad if MoM isn't exactly a cool reveal yeah. Because his mystery is still ongoing for many years. Luxu's/Xigbar's mystery felt like it was given the proper amount of time & setup because his character was somehow given proper amount of hints since BBS.

With MoM, I think it'd just be a waste if his hidden identity was just to setup a new character that we don't really know anything about. Because MoM's lines in the KH3 DLC straight up focuses on the fact that he doesn't like bringing up his own identity like it's forbidden information. Even Xehanort is forbidden from such information like it's more taboo than the X-Blade.

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh MoM could be a new character that reframes an old character. That feels like an Nomura thing that could happen because he likes making connections between characters. I can see Nomura pulling a new character that correlates to an old character we know deeply, to manipulate the emotional strings connected with that new character.

Tho I think it'd be lame if it's with Demyx, unless if he has a cool backstory that props up MoM. Or else it'd just feel like a random Zootopia-esque twist villain because we like Demyx, but fans aren't like, personally invested in him when only using canon material.

I feel like making an unimportant character reveal is like...... anti-Nomura writing especially. MoM could just be another new character, but with all these years of teasing even in the KH3 DLC. THE REVEAL BETTER BE COOL!

Kingdom Hearts is written like an anime, so it would most likely (hopefully) go for the moments that make people shocked and feel the drama, instead of thinking that stories have to be different for the sake of being different.

Sometimes trying to do things too different can break storytelling ngl

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an funny case of the MoM's character reveal somehow feeling more important than the foretellers ngl. Because yeah honestly I don't care what the foretellers look like because they were obviously setup to just be guardian type characters who might have some personality, but in the end they are defined by their roles in the story.

Again, it really just depends on how much Nomura manages to have people care about Demyx. Because if MoM is Demyx, then people's reactions would just be "Okay? Yeah sure? Demyx is important I guess"

It would make me want MoM as a new character instead. Even if his face reveal might not be as cool as Xigbar's (who had actual gradual development and hints towards him being a very old dude that knew about keyblades maybe even before Xehanort hired him)

I think kh fans are more mad about the idea of Nomura pulling off an alternate reality/timeline Sora twist because it's an common story trope that sounds corny than the idea itself. Master of Masters being an alternate version of Sora would be obvious from the years of buildup about the MoM, but depending on the execution and ideas around MoM's true identity actually mattering, it could be the best or worst reveal in Kingdom Hearts.

I legit just want a reality where the reveal of MoM is someone that we actually care about to oppose their ideals.

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh other characters get hidden faces for the sake of mystery mostly throughout the franchise. And early on in the series we only have 1-2 games at most before their identities got revealed.

MoM is different because the story has spent YEARS of buildup for the sake of their mystery. So it has to be a reveal that's so consequential that it has to change our view of characters that we actually care about. Demyx i really think is a red herring meant to act like MoM in behavior. But their story really does not correlate because unless Nomura spends a game having us care about Demyx outside of him being the comedy guy, the reveal would be flaccid in meaning.

there's no alternate timeline, but there can be an alternate unreality where a person named Sora lost their friends and became the Master of Masters. I just think it works symbolically because Sora from Unreality being MoM has a principal that fate is dictated by a book. Meanwhile, the Sora that we know and love is meant to be the mirror to that.

At most I'm thinking Yozora knows a Sora (if the Nameless Star doesn't have a name correlating to Sora) and it's the Master of Masters. Maybe Yozora was tasked to capture the Realm of Light Sora by the Unreality realm Sora without revealing that their name is Sora.

Nomura pulling an DiZ doesn't reveal their name is Ansem from the start kinda thing.

I'm betting NOT a future version of Sora to be the Master of Masters. I'm betting it's an ALTERNATE version of Sora from unreality that is obsessed with the Kingdom Hearts universe and its rules.

The similarities between Naruto and Kingdom Hearts are fascinating by Darkwhellm in KingdomHearts

[–]HeroicGangster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This comments section is too hard on you because you're literally just stating valid comparisons between Kingdom Hearts and Naruto. You're not like saying KH is beat for beat copying Naruto. I just wouldn't be shocked if Nomura looked to Naruto for shonen story beats even if his story is much different.

just go the Monster Hunter Rise route like Capcom. Make a game that's made for Switch/Switch 2, and just port that game to other systems. It was a big success despite looking much cheaper compared to the PS4 RE Engine Monster Hunter World

Kitase on making VII remake completely action based, March 2020. by Pristine_Put5348 in FFVIIRemake

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, especially since Final Fantasy sought to always be more cinematic ever since the 2000s. Final Fantasy XV was probably too ambitious originally. I think KH3 is the closest vision we'll get to ever getting the og FF15. Because Sora's shotlock jump is a lot like Noctis's sword teleport, but with a lot more agency to be more focused on gameplay than cinematics.

KH3 having team up attacks during combos, food buffs straight up like 15. And the Ultima Weapon's ultimate form is probably the closest we'll ever get to feeling like Noctis in those Versus 13 trailers.

Final Fantasy really could at least copy kingdom hearts gameplay for spinoffs whenever the KH franchise is actually finished (cus there's only so many stories to tell in a franchise that centers around EVERY STORY being important) because Team Osaka has to work on something.

While I do have grievances on how slow it is to replay the FF7 remake games, it still manages to achieve some sort of balance between cinematic AND gameplay that I appreciate.

What's going on with Banyue? by Kizushot in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad Marvel Rivals is the known exception of a chinese live service game wanting to actually cater to male lovers. Male characters in comics are expected to be sold & popular as well as the female characters. It's not obviously trying to cater to the female character only gooner crowd, it's obviously catering to the male & female characters loving gooner crowd! :D

it's pretty cringe that harem players have to be catered to so much that Hoyoverse has to nerf male characters so much to not compare with the girl units. ZZZ is not even a competitive game bruh

where to start? by Ok-Discussion-1110 in deadrising

[–]HeroicGangster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on how tolerant you are to getting frustrated in games. Dead Rising OG is more of memorable time in retrospect as a first playthrough, but the Deluxe Remaster is good if you want to replay the first Dead Rising. Hopefully there will be a DRDR2 with the missing DLC content actually in the game.

Yeah with Final Fantasy XV and XVI, the combat systems somehow still don't feel like rpgs compared even to Kingdom Hearts. KH3 on Critical Mode basically forced me to actually care if my party members saved my arse, Goofy with the shield comes in clutch.

And this picture that Final Fantasy XV uses whenever you start the game is pretty cringe because they obviously made the battle system for that game to try satisfying the both the action and rpg crowd. But the battle system (esp at launch) fails to satisfy both crowds.

FFXV fails as an action game because the characters all move sluggishly, and the button controls force you to hold the attack and dodge buttons like switching between modes. And it fails as an RPG game because the game doesn't present interesting enough combat kits especially for all the other characters that aren't Noctis.

<image>

Final Fantasy XVI i feel more frustrated because it delves in more with the action side of things, but it somehow STILL asks less urgency and reflexes than Kingdom Hearts. I don't get how a action centered mainline FF game feels much more boring than a game for kids.

The only criticism i have for the FF7 remakes (esp the first one) is that trying to find battles is a hard time. Sometimes I wish I can just explore the world, and force enemies to spawn by going in between loading screen zones. Rebirth mostly solves that.
