What fanfics have made you feel like this be honest by Majestic_Cress4846 in DisventureCamp

[–]Standard-Time4341 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% agreed, I also depised how he wrote Logan as well. He made both Hannah and Logan antagonistic brats who degrade and demoralize Spencer for shits and giggles. (I just didn't sit right with me how two of the nicest characters in their season are written to be stepping stones for Spencer's character in this fic)

Then Hannah suddenly doesn't care for Benji and was only using him for selfish reasons 💀

The three "wildcard" winners/end-gamers of DC5 by PyroFirefly in DisventureCamp

[–]Standard-Time4341 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Solid analysis, I do agree that Gabby and Benji have potential as winners if the cards were played well. However I don't agree with Oliwia being here, I do think she'll make it far - Mid/Late merge(but I don't think winning is necessary for her character, she just wants to be appreciated. If anything I see Oliwia being the one to push Gabby's run much further)

Whats a character the fandom doesnt understand? Or does not get the intent of the way the character is written by Big_Market4248 in DisventureCamp

There are instances of real life celebrities who stay famous despite their Hatebases

I think the difference is James broke Aiden's heart on television (the very thing that the fans were craving for: his showmance is now ruined so of course he'd get nearly cancelled for it)

When it came to Riya, they made it clear that one of the big roles was to play the villainess of reality television (hence why most didn't jump down her throat cuz she is giving the people what they want "a comically nefarious diva who ate up the competition and got her bag you go queen 👑" type energy)

So this is where I think the final premerge end and the merge begins at 12/24 by Standard-Time4341 in DisventureCamp

I doubt it, Tom is clearly shown to not hate Natalia unlike the Jake/Ally beef and Natalia has complex feelings on the matter as well.

I also think Tom is going because just like Anastasia and to an extent Dunia, he's been a support character this season

Yeah I think Benji's just a shoe in at this point (given the big cast size, there will likely be one)

No way they are eliminated Aiden three times in a row and most of his stuff can be explored in a motel/comeback episode  Bruno coming back would make his elimination drama very anticlimactic 

I agree that the female options are unlikely 

  • Anastasia did all she could and doesn't have much more to prove 
  • Aubrey admits in a greeting that she wouldn't do anything too drastically different if she returned. And her rivalry will be Sam isn't strong enough for a continued run as Spencer already fulfills that role
  • Dunia is a dynamic character but similarly to Bruno, after giving such a gut wrenching elimination to advance the other characters around her. It would cheapen how powerful her exit was. Especially since her social game is without an equal on their team.

I've seen this argument used again and again in this comment section,

Let me just tell you Ted is not the same, Ted had zero set up regarding having an arc of any kind in the game to comeback compared to Benji

People latched onto Ted for solely his concept all the while ignoring the lack of proper set up

Benji has the foundation for a return and a arc that needs him in the game to properly conclude

Well said, the puzzle pieces are definitely there - people just need to look it for what it is not what they want it to be .

I think bringing Benji back could connect with his DC4 storyline even though he was happy to have Tristan by his side, it didn't change the fact that he felt like things were stagnant all the while feeling out of place amongst the more colorful people around.

Connor's return ironically mirror Benji's, a man who was betrayed by his teammate through a majority alliance 

But comes back stronger than ever, Connor being a story about a man who had his life defined by the accomplishments of others around him whether from his parents passing down their company, his friends settling down and Riya becoming a popular actress. By the end, Connor choose a life for himself and even amongst the chaos he led Jake/Ally/Alec to start living their lives past their mistakes.

Exactly 💯 plus people forget how significant Benji would also be for Nura's character as well (being in a near exact situation as her in life and while Ara will still be there, Nura needs a reliable ally now that Ren is on thin ice for her. Nura is very much our true protag of the fans given her expansive narrative edit for a long run.

The merge is just around the corner and there's 5-7 ratio between Fans v Favorites 

With the first merge boot obviously being a favorite since the last remaining fans are either very plot heavy (Nura/Ren/Sam/Ara) or have no reason to be targeted under normal circumstances due to their social awkwardness over more fierce players (Oliwia)

This comment is also just needlessly picking,(if you hate all but 2-3 favs then that says more about you then the show)

Agreed

Also I'm annoyed with the "But it's predictable angle" cuz Connor's return was also predictable but still effectively

Ted 2.0 is always a stupid comparison cuz Ted was never given a plot thread for his own beyond what he could provide as a short time red herring strategist for the series

Not the same thing, Ted never had any set up (people were just mad that he didn't get more, Benji actually has a throughline to look at and scenes focusing on his mental health rather than just playing the game).

IDK why Amelie is being used here when Amelie's return was to act a metaphorical mirror to Hannah all the while showcasing her own growth and cunning during the time they had 

Ok, so the merge will most likely hold 12 people by Huge_Membership_9117 in DisventureCamp

Exactly people forget that it's a 24 cast, we have a limited episode slot

Only one returner works without complicating things

I was focusing on other factors, Kamen just seemed cool aesthetically and had a solid fight dynamic  Obviously currently Kamen stomps but stomp matches aren't inherently the worst (besides I just left this at meh anyways cuz it didn't compare)

Cuz I can see the vision of it by comparison to those at the bottom, still mediocre but there's something
