Part of me wants to say bits from the podcast interview that Aysha had spoken about Pesterquest's development also raised flags.Eromancery wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:01 pm"Oh no, the Vriska route is sympathetic to Vriska! Ruined forever!"
does it like
really matter? if you don't like the vriska route that's fine but to judge the entire product on the basis of Vriska is ridiculous
Every other route was great and Vriska's was funny too. "Thembo Friendslut" and the line about how Thomas Edison electrocuted Topsy the Elephant in front of a live audience to discredit Tesla's Alternating Current were great.
If saying Vriska did nothing wrong means the entire work is shit then I have some bad news for you about the Author's Commentary
I'm having trouble understanding what you're trying to say here.livingNingyo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:09 pm
With the Toblerone retcon that has been going on during it that a certain Vriska related happened to be close before her release date, I think some concerns for how characters are handled by different authors will be spoken at one point.
The tweets? What's up with that?Generalrabogolfo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:15 pmI thought that too at first. Then I saw the tweets.
I think I remember that she said about being the team being soviets, which confirms what Kate had said in the Perfectly Generic Podcast. There was also the comment about how after the finished writing for Eridan's Route, she said to have become an 'unironic Eridan stan'. There was also about her father writing Feferi's route and how the father commented that said character reminded him of Aysha.Wing wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:13 pmThank you for making a proper heart eyes Kanaya.
And yeah, there's definitely some controversy around the Pesterquest authors and how characters are being portrayed.
But I'm curious, what was the "red flags" that popped up in whatever Aysha said about Pesterquest?
I'm confused on how these are red flags. Like, specifically confused on why saying that her father saw Aysha in Feferi is a red flag.livingNingyo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:29 pmI think I remember that she said about being the team being soviets, which confirms what Kate had said in the Perfectly Generic Podcast.

Unironic Eridan stan? why is this a red flag exactly?livingNingyo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:29 pmI think I remember that she said about being the team being soviets, which confirms what Kate had said in the Perfectly Generic Podcast.

I think she had really disliked Eridan. For similar or close reasons why he is often hated among the fanbase.Generalrabogolfo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:48 pmUnironic Eridan stan? why is this a red flag exactly?livingNingyo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:29 pmI think I remember that she said about being the team being soviets, which confirms what Kate had said in the Perfectly Generic Podcast.

This makes me outstandingly nervous. I'm not sure the sort of people to absolutely abhor Eridan doing a flip to actually liking him in a way to 'stan' for him means something good for the violet prince and it's pretty hard to stay optimistic about it.livingNingyo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 5:52 pmI think she had really disliked Eridan.

Things like nastyboy, f*ckboy, and incel to describe Eridan by haters has been a thing from before to present times. They see Eridan as Cronus, despite Cronus was made to ironically poke fun at what haters saw in Eridan. Even Hussie is getting on doing this in his book commentary. I like Eridan as a character and villain as well.Generalrabogolfo wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 6:01 pmstill cant see how she starting to stan eridan is a red flag
