The Amazing Digital Circus - Western Isekai that probably will become Hazbin Hotel killer

[FrogMinutes]

The story and ending of SOMA was about creating purpose and doing the right thing in the face of a hellscape of a life,

If I was the brain scan of a canadian from toronto, I have a moral duty to kill every copy of myself, including myself.
The great AI RP server in the sky would be TAINTED if a single canadian is allowed in. it must be destroyed.

To stay on thread topic. I really believe TADC premise would've worked better as a late 90's point and click throwback game with some narrative elements. let me shit on characters I hate, have a sanity meter you have to manage to avoid abstracting, throw in the "should we even leave?" as the main dilemma that was brought up in the thread.

I've noticed about 80% of media gets instantly better if I could punch the writer's GAY self insert in the back of the head.

I have been under anesthesia multiple times in my life now.
So if we wanna be technical, as far as I know, my 1st iteration died a couple years ago when I went under anesthesia the first time, and what awoke after that was merely a copy that happened to have the same memories and personality as my first self who died.
And I have went under anesthesia a few more times in my life, so I technically a copy of a copy of a copy.

So what you're saying is you found a way to cure DID by means of murdering your imaginary friends

You will have to go to your local library for the proof. Everything I read pre-dates the Internet. This was read in some obscure-ass forensic psychology and abnormal psychology journals I read back in the dark ages of the 1980s that stuck in my mind like a burrowing maggot for all these years.

Just be ready to harden your heart. And stomach. You will read things that make stories of dicked out Raggedy-Ann dolls standing in for children look like a church encyclical.

At least specify what serial killers, dude. Like, seriously I've never heard of this happening ONCE let alone multiple times

Not DID because I don't claim to have different personalities.

Fam, I can't remember. This was over 40 years ago. It wasn't any famous serial killer, just a garden variety child rapist who went to far and killed a victim and either was caught or confessed. Many such cases. More then you would like to know. It was in a sequence of forensic reports but that element stuck in my head.

I'll confess to seeing Raggedy Ann specifically being violated this way only the one time and it stuck with me, but other cases mentioned sexualized dolls and animal figures hollowed out at the usual spaces and used for years before the subjects violated a kid and was caught. It was simpler to roll them all together for the story, I didn't think it would trigger someone's autism.

Alright, that's all you had to say.

There isn't any meaning in a stagnant life. But there is one in a humble one.

Playing with toys, and coping with playmates feels empty and wrong, specually as an ending, because it is empty and wrong.

A humble life doesn't mean becoming a famous multimillionaire. A mother that cares for her children, the Christian family that volunteers to help feed the needy, a dad that works a job he hates for his family etc, that's meaningful.

There's a very good reason Goose work used the word "stagnant" and not "humble". For him stagnant equals mediocre self indulgence. You could call it " positive nihilism"" but for a manchild it boils down to playing with toys.

If you think the message is bad for adults, just imagine how it will be for the kids. Luckily they will miss the message ,and just be bored and disappointed they got a therapy session instead of a fun adventure.

There is. He had his characters discover their originals living humble but relatively meaningful lives, so I have no idea what the fuck he was thinking there. “We may be stuck in a degrading purgatory with nothing but toys and each other, but at least others are living meaningful lives for us. Seeing what our lives could’ve been doesn’t make our situation tragic at all.”

Even if Goose didn’t make TADC for >adults, I do believe kids will pick up what he’s trying to sell and turn it down. Kids want to grow up. They obviously have no concept of what being an adult is like, but they know that they shouldn’t, and wouldn’t, stay kids forever.

There's no obvious backlash because this stuff never really took off in the first place. There's a reason why ARGs and web series tend to stay niche internet things. Worldbuilding and mysterious lore for theory channels to latch onto are not a replacement for an actual narrative with characters and writing that people can follow

To speak as a habitual lorefag: For backlash against it to land, I think you’d have to target its consumers just as much as the product itself, if not more. The crumbing and drip-feeding of absolute bullshit that makes up web-based loreslop only works as well as it does because of spergs with overdriven pattern recognition latching onto it and rushing to fill (sometimes literal) bulletin boards with red string. Said spergs do not care about what the lore is or the quality of it; as long as it’s there, they will act on their impulses on instinct, especially in cases like the subject of this thread where it’s ultimately an excuse to self-righteously wig out at bystanders for getting minute details of their favorite character wrong. If people were to treat them with the same derision powerscalers get for being stupid and annoying, maybe there’d be a bit of a shift.

I’ve got no dogs in this fight otherwise, but it’s been a real treat to see this show and its fandom collapse in on itself over nearly the same timeframe as my own SNCA. Funny how many autists are straight up losing this spring.

Here's another story that's better than TADC that tackles the concept of, even if they're happy in there for now what does an eternity of happiness actually mean?

 

[Symbol of the Chud]

Didn't the videogame "Harvester" do the whole "find happiness stuck in a pointless VR world thing" with one of its endings, too?

[MrLisReal]

I was thinking and this show should not be called "The Amazing Digital Circus", only two characters actually fit the theming of a circus with Cain as a ringmaster and Pomni the clussy. The show should have been called "The Amazing Digital Toybox" because everyone is themed after toys. This tranny is so fucking uncreative, you have tons of interesting concepts you could make based off of a circus and you don't do shit!

kinda? there's a bit more to how Harvester handled the whole thing. the MC lives that perfect happy life with the only other normal person in the game but it's sped up and cuts to both getting killed in real life when he didn't choose to be what the evil organization wanted.

if anything it's straight up "I rather die than become something I'm not" that has a lot more bite than whatever Digital Circus came up with

The fast food episode took place in an exact replica of the McDonald's he worked at.

I can't believe the real self insert was gangle the whole time

I always took the "circus" part of the game being the whole social aspect of the VR game they're all trapped in BUT NOW NOT TRAPPED IN BECAUSE BRAIN SCAN NPC DUPLICATES EVEN THOUGH THAT WAS NOT THE FUCKING PREMISE REEEEEEEE

Still yeah you know how like "family circus" isn't called family circus because of a literal circus? yeah it's like that but with circus/carnival theming to it.

 

[SirThomasMaloryII]

She was the main character, she could have been so interesting. Give an emotionally charged reason why she explores abandoned buildings. She was looking for something specific, something to do with her or her family... but what? That could have been teased. But she ended up flatter than she could have been in favor of spending more of the emotional energy on Jax and his tragic backstory.

Literally this. Pomni just shows up and is, at first, treated like the main character, only to then become essentially a plot device. All the stuff she does, it's always for another person and never to grow her character. Her friendship with Jax? Only to grow Ragatha's and Jax's character, not a singular ounce to really make Pomni shine.

Someone said it earlier, but there was a scene where Ragatha talks to Kinger about not being accepted by the others and it's just a shitty therapy session going over shit that both doesn't matter and was already explained to us (also the huge plot hole considering Kinger & Ragatha's relationship, but I am not going to focus on that).

I feel that moment would have worked a THOUSAND times better if we actually saw Pomni & Ragatha talk to each other after the award ceremony. Ragatha making resolutions with the conflict sounds more interesting than a therapy session that creates a lot of plot holes. It also would have given the story an opportunity to really hammer down Pomni as a character. But no, the tranny really NEEDED us to see Kinger give cunnilingus to Ragatha and go "you are awesome queen <3" and just end the conflict like that with no good result. Next episode, they are friends again like nothing ever happened.

if you press it again it apologizes for saying such an awful thing 7 years ago.

I dont know what's more pathetic: the fact that plushies for voice actors exist or the fact that people want to buy them.
