@DeputyARUUU A group of my friends was watching it together and nobody went Jean, everyone went scarlet witch, and me just seeing purple went Psylocke for a second before I contemplated Jean (granted the Psylocke was very wrong because I just saw purple-ish powers and didn't think Jean)
@DestinLegarie Okay, then take the average gamer who hasn't played GoW, they have no clue who laufey is, but unless have their head in the sand knows the GoW franchise
It's about connecting it to the franchise it's connected to, like most spin-offs do
@parlons__@Male_impregnato@freemasnslayr@UltraNosk THE PROBLEM IS when you argue that your headcanon is somehow more accurate/better interpratation than the canon, and spread yours as if it where canon, which is where a majority of where Naoto discourse stems from, the headcanon is being treated as canon
@parlons__@Male_impregnato@freemasnslayr@UltraNosk And if we're using the AI overview, it also agrees that canon can be contradicted because headcanon is a personal interpretation of things, and https://t.co/Zekv2rhy4d agrees with this interpretation of the word
If a fan wants their headcanon to contradict canon, it's fine
@parlons__@Male_impregnato@freemasnslayr@UltraNosk I disagree that a headcanon can't contradict canon, but at that point you also can't expect people to easily be on board with it
While it really is canon defiance, most people use the term headcanon to include that interpretation
@theworld522x@illmaTic_z@maximilian_ It's effectively become they are "larping" as a fan of the series, despite only consuming surface level content
I do agree though, we already had plenty of terms to accurately describe it before people tried to make "Larping" a thing
@ItsMaYumi2 There is also time and place for the criticism, if I post "I FINALLY MANAGED TO BEAT X IN Y" and upload a video of it, someone responding "why didn't you use z strategy instead" is not really the place to do it, let me celebrate doing it without external input
