Fact Checked as Mostly True

I swear to God, so much RPG discourse is, “We should write complex formal procedures for basic human interactions that everyone seems to manage just fine in every other social activity on Earth except this one for some reason.”

My super bitter, uncharitable answer to most of this discourse that I can barely hold myself back from screaming is, "Don't play with illiterate sociopaths."

On a similar note i hate hate hate hate those videos that are like do you know that we had a matriarchy that was violently overthrown thousands of years ago referring to the yamnaya invasion against the bell beakers and one it genuinely falls into anti-nomadic sentiment two its genuinely not true. Like patrilocality is a strong indicator of a patriarchy and the bell beakers were pretty much patrilocal trying to find an event that killed a matriarchy that didnt exist is genuinely so counterproductive to any actual feminist discussion

GigaYamnaya FeminiGODS destroyed the bell beakercels with no survivors

i really believe with fromsoftware lore interpretation you must first admit it's interpretation. without interpretation there are just a lot of dubious text pieces which sort of exist on itself. and often only difference between batshit theory and hyped up "grounded" "actually canon" theory is that batshit one fills holes with funny patterns and "actually canon" fills holes with dull character tropes from american fantastic blockbusters (which usually have like 3 hrs screentime to present lore and motivations) which makes many people say "ouhggh now with that elden ring actually sounds realistic and makes sense now"

oh boy not another persona game that the worst people you know will make the center of their personality for the next five years
