Performance > appearance

Same thing as with people bitching about the actor who played Han in the Solo movie.

You find a good actor first, maintaining the appearance is secondary.

Different viewer base. More like "average person" than "racist nerds".
Yeah apart from a very surface-level comparison, in terms of plot and audience the two shows aren't really similar

Also considering they premiere on separate nights on separate platforms in an age where people can stream something whenever lol

The difference is noticeable with the dialog it's alot of nothing when you analyze it.
Maybe I'm just a philistine, but having read the books a couple of times, I didn't notice the dialogue of the show as being any different lol

It's all flowery poetic fantasy speech to me.

Just to add onto this, you saw this a ton with the Halo show. Which, admittedly was not very good. However, if you popped into any video about the series, or any fan community, it was filled with people who hated it watching it week to week and filling threads with negative comments.

Like yeah, it's okay to dislike something. But my solution was to... not watch it? I couldn't do something week after week if it was going to cause me so much grief.

Also similarly annoying was LOST, even a decade later. One user on here (I think it was jeff) started a watch thread mentioning he'd watched the pilot and loved it. Immediately the thread gets filled with people spoiling shit and telling him to stop watching the show.

From what I've gathered the creative decisions made in this series would never have been greenlit by the prior right holders.
I mean the prior rights holder (being Tolkien's son) absolutely hated the films and everyone loves those.

Because we live in the Age of Rage.

I honestly would love to know the psychosis behind it. People love to bitch about things. And its like, thats fine. No one has to like EVERYthing. But I truly dont understand why it cant just be I dont like this thing, so I wont watch it and Ill put it out of my mind instead of I dont like this thing. SO I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IT EVERY CHANCE I GET SO THAT EVERYONE KNOWS HOW MUCH I HATE IT! And if I see people enjoying it? Oh man I cant wait to tell them how wrong they are for liking it

And, yeah yeah, I know its just people being passionate about something there are ways to be passionate without being a complete assclown. There are parts of things I love that Im not fond of, so I dont pay them any mind. Its not difficult at all.

Somewhere along the way, grown adults became so infantilized when it comes to fiction that they enjoy and honestly, I think its disturbing as fuck.
I'm convinced it's got some shit to do with the decline of religion and other "social clubs" like Bowling leagues and Elks Lodge and shit like that. And I say this as a dude that isn't religious in the slightest

I think a decent amount of people put the same energy they would give towards religion or super competitive or encompassing clubs towards the fandoms they're apart of.

It'd explain the almost religious zeal and white hot rage which some people will display towards the media they consume.

If rather it go against the lore and be it's own thing than already know everything that is coming in the show like with most other recent adaptations.
Yeah that's where I'm at with adaptations. Telling a good and interesting story trumps accuracy to the source material every time.

It'd be like getting mad that the MCU Infinity War is incredibly different from the comic story.

In terms of the role playing mechanics and storytelling I'd say ut can go 1:1 with it

To what degree does it use graphics? Ive seen a wide variety of graphics usage in that genre.
Every new location you go to, on the left side of your screen, you'll get a pixelated non-color overhead image of the location. Sometimes you can only see one piece of the location and more gets revealed as you explore more of it.

NeoShadowhen posted...
Also, are there a lot of stats?

Not that I've seen. There's stuff for tracking daylight, hunger, health, hygiene, and the condition of your weapon. But most of it is pretty basic.

Basically you're a travelling "lawman" in a dark fantasy world where the land outside the cities is rundown and overrun with magical beasts and undead.

It's a text-based CYOA style game.

Played the demo and ended up buying the full game based on it. Shit is real good so far.

It's almost like playing a fantasy novel.

No they would definitely make a public spectacle about it. Deposing a leader is something you want everyone to know happened.
Yeah this would be most indicative. If the previous leader is dead or incapacitated the people who overthrew them would be screaming that out to everyone who would listen.

The last few leaders before Xi were well, not "progressive" by any means, but they were certainly more internationalist and less uh "fashy" on domestic affairs. I wonder if any potential replacement would be in the same mold.

Xi is already a pretty intense hardliner so I struggle to imagine a coup coming from a more extreme wing of the CCP

From how sharp the dialogue is, to the overall sheer quality of the production (like seriously this is like HBO quality), it bums me out that Book of Boba and Obi-Wan didn't receive this level of care.

Also makes me nervous for Mando S3/Ahsoka, since they'll be coming out right after this and no shade of Favriloni but I don't think either project is gonna be filmed this well lol.
