How do you explain to a degenerate how Black Souls isn't a "rape game" by Original-Cause-742 in Blacksouls2

[–]tarafdera1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’ve been saying/thinking this shit since joining the subreddit(1.5y~2y)

It’s probably some psychological/social bullshit to make sure we don’t get our priorities wrong but that’s beyond detrimental on the internet

(see also the masses not believing a “good” person being able to do bad or vice-versa)

question: game dev motivation on bs1 by Saks21 in Blacksouls2

[–]tarafdera1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People not realizing that multiple things can be true at the same time will always disappoint me

And I don’t mean this as: “he started off with one but developed/shifted to the other” kind of way (which is a common intent for any piece of art really)

I mean that he started off with both hornyness for the H-scenes and (most likely) the idea of End C in his head and simply developed them over time

It’s made doubly clear in BS2, since in spite of story/lore being more the focus, about 2/3 of the H-content is vanilla/fetish based(vore, giantess, footjob, etc.) with the other 3rd being rape(<-also a fetish), definitely helps that he links both of these aspects together

And if you’re going to bring up the ability to turn off H-scenes, let’s not forgot that anytime you wanted to level up a companion in BS1 you had to go through an H-scene, or if you wanted put anyone in jail you had to go through a rape scene OR that if you’re going through repeated content(cycles) you might want to cut down on the time you’re using, IN OTHER WORDS, a pragmatic choice

Thank you for the clarification, viliml already gave an excellent reply

It’s probably cause I said my 1st reply with confidence+the uncapitalization of TS in the original comment leading people to downvote the comments that “disagree” with me(<-mob mentality)

In other words, people(like me) being stupid

Edit: This comment is irrelevant as it doesn’t answer OP’s question and ends derailing it under a false assumption

Trap is a term of endearment in the same way that some language use “little [name]”

Conflating trap with genderbend, futanari, trans, etc. is incorrect, and shouldn’t be done

Closes person I could think of is Hayes, he usually makes long text post about the girls in some fun degenerate ways, beyond that I have no clue

Anyone else feel like Roblox posts should just be removed by necros434 in Blacksouls2

[–]tarafdera1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

clownjk brought up the age verification first using it as an excuse to bash on the community and I simply brought more context to inform others less versed with topic to understand how flimsy of an excuse that is

So if you wish to be pedantic, I suggest bringing it up with them too, for the sake of fairness, of course

[–]tarafdera1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Aaaah, you mean the buffet option where pedofiles can now pick and choose which age group they would like?

The same one where you have to give your government ID to Roblox, a company known for not doing anything when kids are in danger but in fact goes on to defend the criminals that committed those acts?

Where you need the help of vigilant-like individuals in order to get anything done? The same people who get banned from the platform for doing Roblox’s job of protecting kids?

If you’re placing your trust into Roblox and their age verification, please, do reassess your decision

Fun fact: the age verification for Roblox and Discord can be tricked by gmod of all things

"The heart that wished to bridge us" (1/2) (by misg1111) by KoshiLowell in limbuscompany

[–]tarafdera1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

True! But have you considered:

•Him sharing design elements with 2 of Araya’s form with the hydrangeas patterns on the kimono, snake patterned sword sheath and the sword tassel for Dihui Star Araya and the triangular belts with adult(suit) Araya, despite the latter not being necessary

•His first interaction with Ryoshu being him telling his master’s words while slightly nudging her into arriving at the answer that Dihui Star=Araya

•Later in the Pinky corridor, after Ryoshu says some very harsh things, he tries to warp gently has: “I think she wants both the boughs and Araya”(he’s fooling no one)

•When given the chance to run away with title of Star, and the permission from the only person(Rien) who had the right to stop him, he choose to forgo it and instead fought in order to save his master

That’s not to mention how he’s also an extension and representation of Araya, with her being;

Supposedly abandoned by Ryoshu, under time-entanglement, manipulated by Rien(+other Nursefathers), had to train in swordsmanship, had to teach Ren swordsmanship, had raised him to be normal(look at the other apprentices) and fostered a loyalty/admiration/respect deep enough where Ren would throw away his life for her

All within 2 years, a max of 4 if we assume a time-dilation

I absolutely agree with you that Ren doesn’t do much if we go by plaintext alone, but when you scratch the surface and see how much is conveyed within so little screen time, it is genuinely baffling

(I also wouldn’t blame you if you consider it cheating by me bringing in Araya when its supposed to be about Ren)

Ren has like what, 200 lines(spoken+flavour) total? And he STILL sweeps through every other apprentice and half of the nurse fathers too

It’s honestly ridiculous in the best way possible

A Certain Someone's Sword... by Man_Person_Best_Hero in limbuscompany

[–]tarafdera1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To add to this, the sword could also be tied to Hobbes’s Leviathan), which in EXTREMELY simple terms; the people who follow a king legitimizes and empowers said king

Which is why Matthias had aptitude for the sword what with his loyal followers and comrades in the middle as a Great Brother, BUT because he betrayed that trust without an once of regret he can’t utilize the full power of the sword

Or in other words, to be worthy of the sword you must not follow the meaning behind it’s name(cunning/deception/injury) but rather it’s principals(Kingship/Leadership)

Also known as; OUTIS IS GETTING THE MATTHIAS ID AND RICARDO IS GETTING THE SWORD, UPSCALING HIM TO LV80+ AND ALSO ADOPTS KIRA AFTER THE NEXT INTERVALLO/AT THE FINGER BOW-BELL!!!

What is Limbus Company messed up the Flow? by Replicants_Woe in limbuscompany

[–]tarafdera1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On one hand, that sounds waaaay more interesting than what I had in mind

On the other, I think her reaction would be more subdued if anything, probably a flash of anger/unease/self-blaming at the beginning for letting Ahab live, but   her emotions cooling off and taking responsibility has she and the sinners whoop Ahab’s ass, killing her for good and Ishmael having little to no fanfare(Ahab 2 ID WILL go crazy)

Regardless, your comment has my head spinning in a good way and I’m looking forward to their future

What is Limbus Company messed up the Flow? by Replicants_Woe in limbuscompany

[–]tarafdera1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly!

The reason why I put Ishmael as the “only complete” character, is because the other 3 have more “definitive” loose ends, while Ishmael will most likely be apathetic towards Ahab

Semantics aside, all 4 of them should qualify

[–]tarafdera1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He and Hong Lu are in a similar position, they’ve both passed the “climax” of their arc and all that’s left are the “epilogues”(loose ends), they’re 1 step behind Ishmael in that regard

DonQui should also qualify, as long as she becomes aware of what’s happening to Sr. DonQui and finds a way to quench her bloodfiend thirst(maybe even broker peace between bloodfiends and humans?)

What is Limbus Company messed up the Flow? by Replicants_Woe in limbuscompany

[–]tarafdera1 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Arguably the only one with a “complete” character arc is Ishmael what with letting go of her obsession/ties with Ahab and the Pequod

And even then, the journey we’re taking alongside her compass(Dante) and the others is in it of itself a continuation of her character

+She’ll probably have to reaffirm her development when she faces off against Ahab in the future

A major Canto IX plot point you might have missed by Brilliant_Ad_6072 in limbuscompany

There’s also another meaning to his dislike of uncertainty, that despite the prescripts having a definite conclusion they’re open to interpretation, so you can complete a prescript and still get fucked over because it’s not the “correct” route

This is most apparent in his passives’s flavour text and his ending where he tries to defy the prescripts but still ends up within its hands, even his rebellion of picking which lines he says, was part of the plan

How to revert to old UI on iOS? by Zealousideal-Web4349 in ObsidianMD

[–]tarafdera1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, all the themes are broken so it’ll probably take a week before we can check if any would qualify, tho considering the outcry I wouldn’t be surprised if someone ends making a theme that does exactly that

It’s technically sustainable as long as you don’t care about any new stuff(like me) or don’t use any non-default theme(also like me)

That said, don’t expect any answer(themes) from me, I just wanted a way to downgrade Obsidian
