Huh. So is "endgame" slung around in TV fandom when people are talking about who they think is going to be together when the series ends, or what?

I'm only active in video game fandom, so I could never get sick of "endgame" because it's...an incredibly useful word for those discussions, ahaha.

I was gonna say... I'm used to "endgame" from video game fandoms I've been in. I've never really heard it anywhere else, but then again, I haven't participated much in TV fandoms (yet?).

[hezul.livejournal.com]

My fandom involvement these days is pretty much...video games and nothing else, so I'm cheerfully clueless about the terminology in other pastures.

I've been hearing it a lot in the fandoms I dabble in (TV mostly) and it's usually denoting the fact that the characters are actually in it for the long haul, i.e. Jim/Pam and Michael/Holly on the Office. As opposed to just dating for a bit until the actor/actress has to leave the show, like all of Liz's boyfriends so far on 30 Rock.

The Parks and Recreation fandom's starting to use "endgame" for Leslie and Ben and I don't know how I feel about that, even as a huge shipper. Long story short, I can see how "endgame" can be an annoying concept for the anon.

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying!

Yeah "endgame" in my experience is used to refer to a ship that isn't together in the present but fandom presumes will get together in the end (or if the series is already over, the ship that did get together in the end). Ron and Hermione, for example, were "endgame" in canon, or Ross and Rachel. Since in tv shows especially it's pretty common for couples to get together and then break up and get together again at a later point, "X/Y is endgame" tends to get used when there's a couple that fans (or a certain subset of fans) think will get together at the end. The only on-going one I can think of right now is something like Barney and Robin in HIMYM. They're not together in canon at the moment but I know some people assume they're "endgame" and will be together when the series ends.

That makes sense. I just kept coming at it from a vidya perspective, where I'm using to hearing it applied to...game content and bonus bosses and stuff, so I was kind of like "...other mediums use this?"
