ok but this is less a problem solely unique to persona rpers and more a problem with canons that are popular in general

you never see mcus or genshins apping to games in singles either lol

there is one meme space.

it is overwhelmingly shipping memes because that is what most people are into.

the people who don't want to do shipping memes keep trying to make a space for non shipping memes

it keeps failing because not enough people are into it

nobody said shit about oppression you fucking weirdo

"how dare these people act like nobody likes them, don't they know nobody likes them" is a take i guess

the difference is gen players aren't as delighted by empty shipping or smut memes as specifically you people are by empty gen memes

to be fait HSR is not the first game to have those types of combat mechanics, just by far the most popular

and the 'main story' thus far is a retelling of the anime, though the event stories are original

surprise surprise people want to play with other people in the same canon, and often times they find them in games

plenty of these casts tend to be unrelated people who get excited to see a castmate and join, with maybe two or three who actually planned to join together

i’m not delighted i think it’s annoying to walk around with a chip on your shoulder over this shit. it’s loser behavior i’m poking fun at

gen players need to stop acting like people are personally victimizing them because they’re okay/like shipping/smut

i think gen players think about themselves too much. what other people enjoy has nothing to do with you. it’s so self-absorbed

i'm not interested in gen memes because i play gen all day every day in my games. memes are where i go to get my freak on. that's literally all there is to it.

i'm sure ayrt was speaking generally, lots of people come on here and whine about no space for gen players

yes, most of those are trolls putting down tired asexual hatebait. but, statistically soaking, some of them must be genuine

we'd be too busy smashing our cars internet barbies against each other to care if they weren't constantly acting like they're some kind of oppressed minority on dwrp

in their case it's a self-fulfilling prophecy

oh im not saying hsr is the most unique model for turn-based combat in the slightest lol, if anything hsr itself is cribbing from persona and trails and other more quality stuff. but the madoka footage does seem to mirror it pretty closely, from the camera angles to the action order design to the fact that enemies appear to have nearly identical break bars/mechanics, etcetera. and seeing as hsr is so popular in this niche in the mobile space lately, i'd be ready to believe there's at least some influence there. can't blame them for using a formula that seems to work

anyway if the original bits of story are even just middle of the road but something to build on, maybe more madokas will come. bar isn't too high and there's still a lot of fans out there iirc

it is overwhelmingly shipping memes because that is what most people are into.

Every time someone makes this dumb complaint, some other anon tallies up the memes and shows that the ratio is nowhere near as unbalanced as everyone pretends. And I guess this time that other anon is me.

On Bakerstreet's front page right now there are currently 15 gen memes, 11 shipping memes, and 4 that provide prompts for both. Even if you count all of the dual purpose memes as shipping memes that's still a 50/50 split. That's not 'overwhelmingly' shipping memes or even 'mostly' shipping memes.

If it's not about feeling oppressed then why are the staunch gen-only players always crying about how shipping is overrunning Bakerstreet?
