>>japanese game: Enemy is the church/god
>>western game: Enemy is a crazy white chudcel and/or a ru/br/middle east dictator
Wow. I actually don’t know what games you’re even referring to. Do I not play video games anymore or something?Is the King in Yellow actually supposed to be about something or a metaphor for something?
How do you feel about the constant retcons in the Oz books, even within a single book?
Do you think Humbert Humber is meant to be an unreliable narrator or is that a modern interpretation made by pearl-clutchers who refuse to believe a child could ever be in the wrong and there’s nothing sympathetic about pedophiles?-
The King in Yellow is clearly a literal play within the context of the books; you could read it as an allegory for some other force of societal decay but nothing really maps onto a verbatim metaphor.
Oz is written to be fantastical bordering on nonsensical from the start and the point of the stories is usually just an Alice in Wonderland-style road trip instead of anything supposed to be wholly coherent, the retcons are fine when they keep pushing the fantasy forward.
Pedophiles are gay.-
>The King in Yellow is clearly a literal play within the context of the books
Yeah, but it only comes up in like 3 or 4 of the stories, IIRC. It goes from "there’s a screenplay that is maybe driving people crazy" to "cosmic horrors are maybe distorting space and time" to "artists will fuck anything but me."
>the retcons are fine when they keep pushing the fantasy forward
I don’t think they do, though. The Tin Woodman originally states his motivation for getting a heart being that he loves a Munchkin girl and hopes she hasn’t forgotten about him, but at the end of the first book, with everyone else splitting up, he shrugs his shoulders and goes to rule over the Winkies. He never mentions this girl again, it’s like Baum forgot about her within a single book. The second book says the Wizard of Oz was chased out of Oz for being a humbug, but that’s not true, which at first sounds like Tip getting the story wrong, but Scarecrow later confirms it. In the third book, they tell Dorothy the events of the second book, saying Ozma was enchanted by a wicked witch (Mombi) and was then cured by a kind sorceress, and after being reverted back to a girl, later found out she was also a princess. That’s wrong, almost backwards. Mombi did turn Ozma into Tip, but she’s ALSO the one who reversed it, and Ozma didn’t turn back into a girl and later find out she’s also a princess, they were LOOKING FOR the princess and realized she was Tip. Did Baum proofread his own stories?
>Pedophiles are gay
Well, he does lose her because he tore her butthole open, so maybe.

There’s plenty of that. You seem you think books are automatically a higher form of art but guess what? Anyone can get a book published. There is a FUCKLOAD of shitty books out there. -

Plenty of Japanese games have the church as a good entity, or god as an ally.
More often than not the enemy is a demon or other fantasy beast because they took a lot of their conventions in media from stuff like DnD. -
>white
>chud
Pick one. Also, games aren’t movies or books. They’re games. They have more in common with sports or chess. If you play a game for the story, you’re what’s wrong with gaming and should yeet yourself out of life. You’re why gatekeeping and bullying are required.-
>They have more in common with sports or chess.
They clearly don’t. Do you even play video games? Why do you brainlets always act like the "video" part in video games doesn’t exist?-
>Do you even play video games?
Yeah. Do you, faggot? Fuck off with your pretentious bullshit, Siskel and Ebert were right – video games aren’t art.

I don’t understand the appeal of dykes. Why would you want girls to rub their snatches together? I want them to rub their snatches on me. Guys sound like such cucks when they fantasize about girls being like that, like
>Wow, she’ll never have sex with me, that’s so hot!-
Twice the girls mean the fun is being doubled.
-
It makes more sense the other way, where straight girls don’t mind sharing you because they want you so bad. Two dykes are more likely to run off on their own. Also, what you’re saying doesn’t add up, because when guys fantasize about lesbians, there is no dude in the mix, it’s just two girls kissing or doing their taxes or something. There’s zero implication that a man could ever be involved. Honestly, it just comes across as some kind of feminist conditioning, just like the latest soiboi craze of liking muscular women.
>no dicks or balls to worry about
Why would I worry about dicks or balls? I want my 2D women sucking dicks and balls, because then I can imagine them sucking my dick and balls. Why would I want them licking cunts? And before you say "it’s not your dick they’re sucking," you’re right, because the dick isn’t real, like them, what matters is the visual. You yourself should agree with this after saying
>she’s 2d, she couldn’t fuck you in the first place
I would expect someone who likes video games to understand what vicarious entertainment is.Tracer was everyone’s waifu before they announced she was gay. Now nobody cares about her. So no, you’re absolutely wrong. I’ll agree that there is an allure to dominating a lesbian, but my contention was not on images of men fucking lesbians, it was on images of just lesbians being lesbians. So…
-
Okay Freud.
-
>where straight girls don’t mind sharing you because they want you so bad.
Too bad I want to break their will and force them to like cock instead of just passively sit back. Their resistance only makes my penis harder. -
>t.
-
-
-
The point is to force the dykes to take your cock, you dumbass. That’s why Tracer porn because a lot hotter after Blizzard tried to make her gay. I don’t think so, here’s my penis.
-
she’s 2d, she couldn’t fuck you in the first place.
and then if she’s a dyke all you get in art of her and her gf is tits and pussies- no dicks or balls to worry about. -
Lesbians aren’t real, anon.
-
that’s a lie, both of my moms are lesbians
-
Your dad was a shitty lay. Fuck your mothers straight, that should do the trick. A "lesbian" is a woman who hasn’t been properly fucked.
-
-
-
I agree with this
-
Completely 100% factually correct with railing lesbians is kind of hot in a weird way.
-
This, dudes like lesbo because they want to have hot sweaty lesbian threesome not because they want to observe it from afar like some fucked up david attenborough nature special. Yuricucks have been trying to push for the latter and call the people that like the former self-inserter.
-
FUCKING THIS. I have never understood "wow lesbians r hot" and never will. Fantasy women will already never fuck you, having yourself be denied in your fantasy is willing cuckoldry.
-
By that logic having any fantasy is that.
-
-
Like all girls they wont have sex with you, but they wont have sex with any other dude either, so it hurts less. Plus more likely to be tomboyish.
-
You’re right, they won’t have sex with me, but I still want to see what I would see if I were having sex with them. That’s the entire point of porn. Why would I want to watch them kiss chicks? That’s the furthest removed thing from me.
Double dumbass is only endearing in fiction, though. Actually stupid people are dangerous and don’t bathe.

I had assumed this was all based around fictional tales, yes. Reality is an ugly thing.

Lesbian conversion is one of the hottest shit I have ever discovered.

As in conversion to or away from being lesbian?

Lesbian conversion tags are for the most part lesbians getting the D. See: Tracer from Overwatch.

Good video games don’t stop for a cinematic or literary storytelling just like ballet dancers don’t stop to read a script out loud. Games that are actually artistic tell their stories through gameplay, and those stories can be pretty damn complex and unique.
-
Plenty of good video games stop for cinematic or literary storytelling. Pure atmospheric storytelling/background storytelling is ok and all, but actual story is better.
I agree that it isn’t great for "video games as art", most of the time at least, but I don’t particularly care about video games being considered art. I know I’ve enjoyed plenty of stories, both implicit and explicit.
