I re-watched Hill House first and now am on episode 3 of Bly Manor. So far it's not gripping me as much and I don't think the child actors are as good as the Crain kid actors were, which isn't really helping considering the kids are a huge part of the source material for Bly Manor.

Definitely noticing the wandering accents as well, though they're not the worst I've ever heard. They're just not great either.

I'm a misogynist now? Huh, learn something new everyday, I guess.

I had a conversation about the Baldur's Gate thing with someone the other day lol

We both agreed devs complaining that people always made generic humans (wherein "generic" is assumed to mean "white" which is already a whole other thing) in any D&D-ish video game or tabletop system were mistaking a fault of a system for that of the players. Of course if given the opportunity to either

1) play the neutral race that can be basically anything you want, wherein race does not equal culture, or
2) play a set non-human race or "variant" (aka usually non-white) human in which invariably culture = race = culture and you only have a few alignments to choose from, plus all these other racial drawbacks, plus you're an alien in most settled civilizations because that's just how the incredibly white-western-human-centric world is designed...

most people, especially new players, are gonna pick the path of least resistance. Regular Human of whatever default ethnicity and culture the setting is - usually super white. Then devs assume that means "no imagination! characters that are self inserts!" and not "I'm a POC that doesn't want to deal with being the only POC in the very white fantasy world you designed"

But it's easier to say "players are basic" than examine what causes people to play what they do, or what in the system deters them from playing other things

Everything worth paying for takes more time and effort than you think it does. I once saw a post by someone who made decorative covers for tissue boxes. Lots of people wanted them, but they always tried to haggle her down from the proper price for all the time it took to make them, because they assumed decorative = easy. Or that script doctor who said to stop asking him to read your script for free, because suggesting changes takes time and effort.

The tone of this secret comes across as whiny and entitled to me. Like maybe just accept and appreciate that people have different ways of interpreting art?
