Eh, I'm plenty empathetic, but a story where an event happens then is immediately forgotten and not addressed by said story has very little weight to me. If the characters don't treat something as important, why should I?
...this is a little far though. The only thing I'm implying is that...Brienne's not real. She fine/not fine with anything. Any particular fiction, or piece of fiction, only has as much power as I give it. The characters have no feelings on the matter at all.
It seems you both just play differently. MoneyMan prefers to immerse into the game and treat those inside the game as people. It's why story-driven games are successful, and even a lot of Girl Life-esque sandbox games attempt to give randomly generated AI partners personality as well (see New Life, despite its current status). People like to interact with people and makes porn with said people even hotter. Random Mino-Man/Mino-Woman #231 don't hit the same as Brint/Brienne because you've grown attachment to them. It's why they and Kiyoko do better than Quint and Tui. Because they're more fleshed out as people. You on the other hand are the classic porn enjoyer, it seems. Here for the scenes and you're good. Respectable but makes it hard to see why someone would be upset that something like that happened.
I never forget Brint. That's why I made sure to say Mino-Buddy. Gender neutral and rolls of the tongue
Nah, that's not it. I'm plenty attached to the characters. I think of all the characters as people; for instance, its why I'm okay with them having other relationships: if my character is allowed, seems shitty for not giving them the same courtesy.
Comics get retconned, are alternate universes, etc. The Harley Quinn that gave kids gameboys isn't the same one in the TV show which isn't the same one in the Injustice timeline. It's not just different authors, it's also different characters.
It has absolutely nothing to do with that, people in thread just care about Brienne more. Kind of just assuming a lot about the people in the thread. I honestly didn't even know Brint had the same scene, figured it would just be Brienne since she's the one that beat Kiyoko in the popularity polls.
Literally said it yourself.
That's not ignoring something you don't like, that's assuming a character's feelings on something.
That's not something everybody can or might not even want to do, especially for something that is just one project. This isn't comics where each one is a separate thing and thus some leeway can be given for inconsistencies/differences. It's all amounting to one (somewhat) cohesive world that is meant to be taken in as a whole. It's also not the best analogy because this game is a work in progress. Things can be added, removed, and changed. There is no reason for things that are very odd and don't fit to stay in the game if it contributes to being a worse/more messy product overall.
It's actually from Superboy punching reality, no joke.Pretty sure Jason Todd actually got brought back to life by Liam Neeson or some shit, so it is the same character
But you know what I mean. Jason Todd was voted to die by readers, and so he did. Then new writers came along and decided that from Superboy punching reality, he fixed some timeline errors (like Jason Todd dying).Nah, this isn't right either.
Different writers working on a singular continuity. Since Savin is a shit project lead, he doesn't enforce a coherent narrative in the CoC 2 world so things feel disjointed. Your MC acts completely different depending on who is writing because some of these writers hate having to write for the PC and sometimes make them a third wheel or do the dumbest shit possible.
Sometimes you can be wrong, ya know. My comment and Daken's are proof of that. In the original and New 52, Superboy-Prime punches reality which brings Jason back to life. In the Rebirth, he's resurrected via Liam Neeson's Lazarus Pit. Same character, different continuity. Again, the Batman who faced off against Ledger's Joker did not fight off the Batman Who Laughs who did not meet Sherlock Holmes who did not fuse with Nick Fury who did not fuse with Man-Thing as Man-Bat who is not his father in Flashpoint who is not Gordon's grandson who is not Elseworld's Batman who fights Jack the Ripper who is not Terry McGinnis like.... bro. Do you get it now? Terry McGinnis is Batman, so was he also fighting the Batman Who Laughs? The Batman Who Laughs is also Batman, so was he fighting himself? I mean, in your eyes they're all the same character.
What about when Superman landed in Gotham instead, and the Waynes adopted him and named him Bruce? And then Superman was Batman? Does that mean that Batman has fused with Captain America as well? So
Absolutely. Although I think for clarity it is worth noting that I think that the two of you are kinda speaking about two different things.
...sure, but not here. Not because I have some special knowledge or anything....but because I'm giving my opinion on how I view things. There's not any right or wrong here, just discussing differing views. I'm not saying everyone should think the same way, just exploring.
You're bringing up different continuities, that's explicitly not what I mean. I'm talking the same character, an issue or two later.
He represented forum nerds and trolls, basically. People who hated comic change. It was kind of a meta thing.
You referenced Detective Comics 23.2 with the gameboys, which was published in 2012-2013 I think? Somewhere around there. Rebirth, launched in 2016, introduces a mainline Harley that leaves the Joker, and then Infinite Frontiers establishes her as a heroine. A relaunch and a few years apart, not "an issue or two later." I might be wrong, but I thought Rebirth rounded back to before Flashpoint, deleting what happened in New 52. Hard to keep track because DC is mismanaged as all hell.
