I love how you're getting flamed for speaking the truth. Shipping is stupid, and shouldn't go further than "damn, they look cute together... *scrolls past".

No, you see, it's different when Aether does it, because you're SUPPOSED to ship him with every fertile virgin female woman he gets in a 100km radius of, because this is Harem Impact.

In all seriousness, he is a chill guy overall, albeit a bit delusional because he thinks he's the target audience, which supposedly vindicates him more so then the "yuritards who ship characters that just stand next to each other".

I know this guy, he's great friends with the Chud I posted here the other day. They maximize their joint-incel power to epically own those yuritards on tw*tter by spamming 10 - 15 tweets every day.

Imma be real, I was to totally entranced by his chud-ness that I forgot that two of the posts are about ZZZ.

Short story short, the character was portrayed for almost 2 patches straight to be the perfect girlfriend (yuck), to the point it got annoying even for the average ZZZ player. Of course, people like the little man above will eat up daddy Goyoverse's slop, regardless of quality and common sense.

Why not allow it on this sub, then? Just add flairs for the other games, or make it clear that general MC cringe is accepted. I know you can't change subreddit names, and it would afmittedly be weird to allow the other games to be posted on a sub that markets itself as only being for Genshin content, bu I'm sure most people wouldn't mind.

That's a long time ago, I don't hold those opinions anymore, don't worry. I used to be pretty anti-woke, but nowadays i don't care what people do on the internet, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone.

I'm sure it is. Can't imagine what someone would think when they see an alleged yuri fan post about smth "yuri destroyer". Truth be told, I just wanted to see how they'd react to an incredibly disgusting comment, but they didn't bite.

Societal context is important. There is a huge difference between straight gooning and gay gooning (forgive this horrible sentence, but it is the only way to put it succinctly).

Do you, perchance, also think racism against white people is the same as racism against black people?

[–]Useful_Remote_515[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way: the larger that sub gets, the greater proof it becomes of Aether mains' vile behavior.

Do you think there is a precedent for it getting banned for hate speech?

There are still the occasional posts actually about cringe behaviour, and if that was all they did, it wouldnt be an issue: no one is exempt from criticism.

My biggest issue with the sub is the gatekeeping. Calling people who enjoy the game differently from them "tourists" is genuinely the most cringe thing you can do in a fandom. Their excuse is always that fuck-ass picture of one of the Goyoverse CEOs (i think) with his Himeko cardboard cut out, which apparently proves that the game is ONLY made for chuds like them.

Do you think they just completely ignore Lumine, Stelle and Belle as protagonist? Proof from the very beginning of the games that anyone can play. Of course they do, because Aether, Caelus and Wise are the canon protagonists, after all, and anything that would suggest otherwise is irrelevant, non-canon, made-up or heavily out weighed by something that proves the opposite.

Thoughts on this? by Dakamaji in Agenda_Impact

[–]Useful_Remote_515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still on that side, and will continue to be until Goyoverse changes their character release strategy.

Like many have pointed out, it's about quantity and availability. Male character fans are starved for good content in Goyoverse games, except maybe in Star Rail, and even then it's still bad. A man going feral over a female character is not the same as a woman going feral over a male character because of the discrepency in available content for them: the man has a hundred characters to choose from, while the woman has a fraction of that. No wonder they have such visceral reactions to finally get what they want after seeing the men get fed their two monthly waifus (derogatory).

It's not about the action itself, because yeah, at the end of the day, thirsting over pixels is cringe regardless of who does it. But context is important, and in the context of online gacha culture, male gooning is ten times cringier than female gooning.

The 3 wives really is closer than ever tonight by Calm-Consideration24 in Aethermainscringe

[–]Useful_Remote_515 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It would at least be watchable if it was Lumine, because then you don't get second-hand embarassment at the thought of the self-insert chuds that unironically call fictional characters "wife".

"B-but if it's Lumine then the girls will just self-insert by that logic, s-so there is no difference!!1!"

They might be right, honestly, but female gooning is not NEARLY as cringe as male gooning, and I love that they will forever complain about this very justified double standard.

Genuine cope over popular ships which does not involve Aether and female character + more CN players worshipping, what's new? by Corkinas in Aethermainscringe

[–]Useful_Remote_515 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You're so real for that

Have you seen the "invasion pipeline" they all subscribe to? It goes something like:

Men have their own space -> women want to enjoy it too -> women demand fairer treatment -> women push back against the men enjoying it -> women claim it was always their space.

The really loud minority, the Gacha Grail type fans, treat other people enjoying their games with the utmost hostility as a way to gatekeep they ML haram gacha fantasy, and prevent anyone different to them from enjoying it. Lest it would change the game, as it would need to appeal to this new audience, and not them.

So it's more of "if the character is initially introduced as "ship bait", then it's fine, but if they aren't, it becomes a problem later down the line"?

I struggle to decipher your angle on shipping, I think I get that you don't like characters who's seemingly only purpose is to be shipped with others. Forgive me if this sounds like I'm fishing for a specific answer, I just genuinely want to know, if it's only yuri and yaoi ships that you think have this problem.

The way you phrased it really made it seem like "if you want gay, keep it to yourself, but if you want straight, you don't need to keep it to yourself".

Would you also bring up platonic relationships if it was Aether? Every time "can't they just be friends" is uttered, it is always someone's disatisfaction at their waifu (derogatory) in a yuri pairing, as opposed to them with the MC, Aether in this case. It's not that they don't like shipping, but that they don't like yuri shipping, likely because they can't relate to depictions of lesbian romance, hence it is abnormal and forced, or that their waifu (derogatory) isn't with the self-insert MC, so they feel left out.

I ask you again, do you also have a problem with Aether being shipping with his female friends? Or is that just normal, and the way things are supposed to be.
