What Zero Could've Been

[Raoabolic]

Senti I doubt you'll listen since you've admitted to being an irrational, but you need to take a break from the forums. Or the game or both. If anyone else who cares about you, really truly cares about your well being and mental state they should agree with me. I doubt they will and most likely tell you that if you did you'd be caving in to the other side and allowing them to silence your voice or whatever. Which is just full of yikes.

As you have stated in another thread you've burnt out and continuing to engage with the activity that's made you feel burnt out to begin with is more often then not going to lead to feeling even more burnt out. More angry and bitter until it starts to affect other parts of your life and becomes even more of a problem. It's not shameful to admit to burn out. It happens to everyone at some point. There also shouldn't be any type of shame from admitting to being burn out either. Nor from taking breaks or lessening the amount of time you give to engage with something or even someone who is putting you into a negative headspace.

Or the burnout could be a result of the player noticing something questionable and when they bring it up with their fellow player it devolves into the SDF (SE defense force) telling the player they are wrong for feeling that way towards a game they pay monthly for. lmao

You've got it all figured out. I wish more people did.

Figuring it out just means you are more depressed about the situation but you can't tell anyone about it without getting into an argument, lol.
Ignorance really is a bliss!

It is bliss...until it isn't.

Maybe they just need to relax some, maybe eat a burger or two.

It's funny to me tho that the people claiming they are being silenced are the ones putting those who disagree with them on ignore because they don't really have any counterpoints.

There's no real discussion to be had either, most of the time. "this is my point, if you disagree you shouldn't because I'm right" doesn't really make much for legit discussions. Especially when actual productive responses are completely ignored.

The OP pretty much abandoned this thread after it didn't go the way they thought it would. They probably thought they'd have more backup but even their most staunch defenders don't seem to want to touch their hot takes with a 10 foot pole lol.

Yeah, it was a crap show from the start. Sometimes I agree with the OP on some things, other times I do not. The vast majority of the time they leave me scratching my head in confusion. I don't see how anyone could have sided with them here. It was a pretty awful take that only got worse because they couldn't stop digging themselves a deeper hole.

There’s nothing controversial of my take of not having women with such similar personality traits in the cast, and for them to revisit what made previous FF heroines greater than the likes of Y’shtola whose treatment of the people around her make her a detestable character and party member who should’ve been told off for her behavior ages ago, especially with the disdain and indifference with which she treats the men who dare to commit the sin of wanting to get closer to her or in Runar’s case, making the mistake of caring about her in a deep way.

She’s no Bayonetta to get away with that “sass” nor are the guys she rejects creepy old dudes where such sassy rejections would’ve been a lot more warranted, and where I would’ve gladly cheered her on after having no small amount of unfortunate similar experiences with being approached by men who had no business coming anywhere near me.

Zero, while not terrible, isn’t exactly the sort of female party member I’d add in to a mix of her, Y’shtola, and Krile. I would’ve rather seen that slot been taken up by a woman who leans more into the feminine type, as opposed to hey just look at me I’m strong pay me and I can solve your voidsent problem by just hitting things and turning them into rocks. A seductive demoness would’ve also been nice, but I guess G’raha Tia is supposed to fill that role, in an entirely forceful and unreciprocated manner with the player having 0 agency in such advances.

Wait what ? G'raha Tia, filling the role of a seductive demoness ?
