@bloodttex@dexterdxuuy@PaulMarcoratic Nah you’re good lol, I can see why you read it that way. I just happened to come across the thread and the argument caught my attention even though I don’t really talk about gacha games much.
@bloodttex@dexterdxuuy@PaulMarcoratic I wasn’t trying to be passive aggressive. I was genuinely apologizing and trying to disengage respectfully. If it came across differently, that wasn’t my intention.
@bloodttex@dexterdxuuy@PaulMarcoratic That kind of proves the point though. If a character technically “matters to the plot” but gets 15 minutes of focus while another gets a 4-hour quest, then the story clearly isn’t treating them as equally important. At that point their relevance feels more nominal than meaningful
@dexterdxuuy@bloodttex@PaulMarcoratic Yeah exactly. It’s annoying when any criticism just gets dismissed with labels instead of people actually engaging with the point. Wanting the story to respect your time isn’t some unreasonable expectation.
