Games thread!

Oh good. I'm so glad we get to have this tedious discussion again.

You forgot a camp anyway. There's also the 'Tolkein was a product of his time and IDGAF because it's a good story' camp.

Writing thread

~o-o~

Vent

I have five WIP. Five. I have ideas for all of them and yet I pick up a damn pen or computer and nothing will come. Aaaaaaah

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah this is currently happening in my fandom where a good 3/4th of the people I'm following have suddenly turned into Undertale and Deltarune fans, and my non-gaming self just can't relate.

[(Anonymous)]

This actually looks interesting to read - has any of them actually read the book or is this another one of those 'I heard from someone that this is about X' kind of arguments?

[(Anonymous)]

Sometimes some of those secrets don't get made and that's the only discussion that there is about it.

Re: Vent

[(Anonymous)]

Oh big same. I've got a whole bunch of ideas and none of the energy or brainpower to actually write any of them down and in a way that's a lot worse than not having any ideas at all.

[(Anonymous)]

People don't care about the truth. They don't care about others' opinions. All they care about is being right or at least more right than the next guy. Arguing online is nothing more than a weird masochistic pastime.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not familiar with the person featured in this secret, but you (and she) absolutely have a point, nonny.

Fandom (not just fandom, but staying on-topic for the community for now) is very much going through a phase of deciding people's moralities (among other things) for them. The attitude has sort of devolved into "you're either with us or against us" on whatever subject is being debated, with only those two absolutes / extremes and no room for anything in between... and more often than not, people will decide which category you fall into before you've even said a word.

Possibly your language struggles are contributing a little... but the presumption-without-actually-bothering-to-read-what-you're-saying bit is definitely a thing that's happening pretty universally ATM.

[(Anonymous)]

This, exactly.

They don't care what you're saying, OP. All they care about is skimming whatever you've typed for some innocent 'wrong' they can correct you on and thus show their superior knowledge/moral standing/etc.

Seriously. Like, it is one thing not to agree with all the messages, or even any of them, and still like the books. I don't agree with all his messages myself. But to claim that he had no messages in his writing is patently absurd. He clearly intended to get some points across. The nice thing is that unlike some other fantasy writers (Lewis for one, Terry Goodkind for another), the message didn't take over the story and end up ruining it. But I don't think you can say there are no messages there.
