I’d like to speak to this fellow about fallout equestria

More lore isnt more better. Putting in random fantasy babble and big words dont make quality writing. Characters is what makes a story. You have a lot of reflection yet to do ...

"English major" appeal to authority, while we are at calling out fallacies

The Drinker portion of the video just felt like a lot of meat riding ngl. “Let the smaller guys alone”. Ah yes leave the millionaire author/youtuber alone because clearly the manly Drinker “can’t take it”. I think it’s all fair game. If Drinker can tear into someone’s work, the same applies to him. That’s the type of energy he puts out in the internet and that’s the kind of energy that he gets back. Perfect example is his trailer for his upcoming movie. Even his fans in the comment section hate it. Drinker is already surrounded by yes men that praise anything he does (Eric July, Nerderotic, etc) so to say he’s off limits because he’s not a corporate titan is just blatant favoritism. Telling people to only criticize big companies and authors is literally what an echo chambers is. Also, no, you don’t need to be a writer to give good criticism of a book. Yes James Tulio comes off as a bit smug, but so does Drinker. Both of them put on an act to be entertaining. And both are fair to criticize.

I can't say I really agree with your take here, I do think that reviewers can get very stuck in a certain lens of analysis for determining how good a piece of media is. However, that is a reviewer's job. It is not the job of the reviewer to understand every reason people may enjoy a thing but rather to bring their particular view on media to the things they are criticizing. Speaking of James Tullos because I enjoy his videos despite not always agreeing with his reviews, he brings a consistent lens of analysis to every book that he reviews which focuses on the extent to which the story innovates within its genre and constructs believable events that let a critical reader become immersed. This analysis does not reflect the way everyone reads books but does reflect a very common critical standard of "good writing" and as such is a metric that his fans (me included) find useful as a perspective. So like, I don't think that there is a problem with a reviewer critiquing a story this way.

You can look at a piece of media critically and tbf, it is fun. But you should never forget that when it comes to entertainment, the content's actual artistic value doesn't matter as much. This is something these people forget For example, if you look at it critically, the Kingdom Hearts games are absolute fucking shit. The Shrek movies are terrible and Pop Music has less value than rotten flesh. Yet they perform terrifically well with millions of people loving them. This proves that something doesn't need to be "good" to be good as you said

It reminds me of people who say Indiana Jones' presence has no effect on the story of the Lost Ark. But I don't care. He as a character makes it entertaining.

I’ve seen dozens of critics praise movies that aren’t good, even the critical drinker admits that movies only need to be entertaining, nothing else. They critique things so you can get an idea of what the show is like, what it’s infuriating bits are, what flaws stand out. To criticize is to deconstruct, hence why critics are so critical, even praises can sound condescending and halfhearted, that’s the nature of it. If you don’t want that just go watch a review. Edit: are we not going to talk about how Wubway is being a hypocrite. A lot of his content is similar to the critics he’s dunking on here.

I can't stand when an outrage CZcamsr reviews a game or hobby that they obviously weren't a previous fan of, or likely ever played at all. But the game made some change that conflicts with the reviewer's agenda, so they make a terrible review based on that agenda and cry doom and gloom on the game they're reviewing. They make a big fuss, claiming all the games fans have turned on it and that the changes their agenda conflicts with will kill the game. Then a dozen more of these CZcamsr's join in parroting the same opinions.

nice nuanced view. bravo

I think another big problem is that a lot of youtube reviews are very binary; X is amazing or X is terrible. As where the best reviews in my opinion are the ones by people who clearly love the media but are also willing criticize it. I'm personally a big fan of the retrospectives by NezumiVA, for her loving something almost inherently means examining it's flaws.

I'd have to think about it a lot more; but off the top of my head I think FLCL is a good example of a piece of media that doesn't have a complex story but manages to be very compelling and evocative. I still cry when Naota swings the "bat". 😭

Rangers Appreciate seems a bit like a series I loved, Spirit Animals. In that world there are the “Greencloaks” skilled people with spirit animals who go on missions, keep order and are basically above local laws and politics. The countries of the world are just renamed versions of real continents. Though as an Australian, I think it’s awesome that the main bad guys from the first series come from Stetriol, which is pretty much just renamed Australia. The story and world mightn’t be the most amazing, unique or complex thing ever but I really love it.

Oh my god! I read Ranger’s Apprentice RELIGIOUSLY! It was my Harry Potter, I read it so much I got in trouble in school for reading when I wasn’t supposed to, lol. Every little moment you bring up in this video has so many good memories attached to them, hours of reading just imaging these guys riding together, getting into risky situations and coming out on top. I would DEVOUR these books, my father had a policy that I could only get a new book if I finished the one I was currently reading, so I would absolutely storm through these books, sometimes staying up past my bed time just to see what happens in the next book. I was only slowed down by the author’s release schedule. I think, however, it was also my first case of disappointment in a setting. The royal rangers series didn’t have that life to it. I hated that Will lost his wife. I would find myself re-reading the first few books because the latter stages of the series had become dull to me. I loved this series. It shaped who I was. I wish I could say more about it, but for how many words I tore through in my formative years, those same words fail me now.

I really like how you tweaked the story and especially what you did with Sprout.

How about this Idea It would be about Sunny and Hitch getting close as friends again as they reminisce about their childhood adventures. Hitch overtime notices how much Sunny is spending time with the others. And he was conflicted because he was happy for her. But he can't help feeling jealous. Because before whyll he had other friends. He was Sunny's only friend for years. A use to monopolizing all of Sunny affections.

Mlp ideas I got another idea for a chapter since they don't instantly know how to fly. You can have it be about Zipp trying to learn how to do it properly. But she is full of so much excitement and stress. She cannot do it. Zipp herself doesn't realize that's the reason. But Pipp slowly does. She calls her new friends to help. Sunny thinks she should use her skates to give her a better running start. But it failes. Then Zipp would turn to hitch I'm not sure what he would do. So I will leave that part to you. Last but not least, we would have Izzy with the crazed idea of a catapult in order for zipp to get into the sky, and so she can learn to fly. She zooms into the sky and crashes into a clouds bank, which confuses Zipp since she is now stuck in a cloud. Meanwhile, Pipp is getting worried. Izzy gets the others in the airship from the rewrite movie, and Pipp uses cloud puff to find Zipp. Zipp frees herself, and her mouth drops at the sight of a palace made completely of clouds. It was completely abandoned She finds a large hall with stained glass windows, like in zephyr heights. One of them catches Zipp's eye. It was a halo of rainbow magic spreading across the land, just like the unity crystal did. The window next to it had a rainbow-dash cutie mark. Zipp races, throw the hall and take pictures of everything. Pipp appears to have a heart-to-heart conversation about Zipp's issue. The others show up in the airship. Izzy screaming we are coming zipp. The sight of all her friends coming to her rescue full Zip with a warming sense of calm. An for few brief moments she truly flew. And tell she crashes aboard the airship. They all hug Zipp. Everypony you need to see this. She pulls out her phone. It zooms in on sunny confused face. Zipp sunny whispers do you know what that symbol is Zipp?

Thank you ❤ I will leave an other comment if if any other idea keep pony fandom a live.

Honestly, I don't think I'd concede those points about filler and violence, at least not for original FO:E (i do think they apply to other spin-offs, especially Project Horizons). Having both read it and listened to it a few times, I actually think the original is pretty tight and well calibrated. Every encounter pushes a character arc or plot point and the violence, while extreme, isn't actually described overly gratuitously, and often actually serves a purpose. I actually think FO: E is kind of a great Fallout story in terms of theme.

Commenting for the algorithm. Love your rewrites

Could you explore the relationship that the new main 5 would have between eachother? I love how you developed sprout in your new gen rewrite. In the new cartoon a lot of the characters are too much of the same thing. I also want to see some of your episode ideas for the main 5 growing as friends. Do you think that learning more about twilight and her friends will cause them to doubt themselves? I think it would be cool for them to also learn about the pillars as well at some point and learn that they can be protectors in their own way. Lastly, I really enjoyed this video and also how you characterized pipp in your new gen rewrite, it was so refreshing to see her relationship with her people portrayed as the best way for her to connect with the them without upsetting her mother and being secure in her position. Keep up the good work, congratulations on the screenwriting degree 🎉

Woot! I am one with excitment

I thank the youtube recommendations for showing this. I agree 100%.

I love this and want to see the game remade with this! That said, I would like to see one gameplay change: enemy camps. When you take out an enemy camp the enemies in that area no longer spawn thus allowing you to feel as if you had an actual change in affect in the game. Going to Atown and hear how much safer they feel and how they have you to thank for it. The camps could even have their own mini quest lines complete with camp boss, which would add some more versatility to the game.

Rewrite!!!! We demand the rewrite!

Can we pretend that this is the story we got?

I liked Fallout first. I started reading it, liked it and then watched the show for context.

Ive been in the FOE fandom longer than MLP, without FOE I never would've watched the show.

Fallout Equestria is one of the mane reasons that got me into the Brony fandom and into Fallout and i love fallout and Fallout Equestria

I ❤this better

As a dude who wrote a small essay on the russian translation of F:E some ten years ago, I see the appeal as follows: -Epic quest based plot, like in High Fantasy genre -Sci-fi gadgets, although in the fic it’s more like techno-magic; and speaking of witch... -A very interesting adaptation of the MLP universe to the needs of the Fallout story. Gives the story this… elusive charm Cons - the “gameplay elements” lifted from Fallout 3. Fuck this nonsense. Also prose is bad, but this is to be expected I suppose… Pip is a brat, Calamity is a bro, sex scene is cringe, don't fight me - you wont win.

The pegasi being referred to as "feathery bastards" is just so expressive. So real. I love it!

Niko Bellic truly is the best 😎😎😎

Nice review

I liked the concept of the book and the story that was told but I was taken out of it so many times due to the dorm of the writing mistakes made in it. There were multiple times where I had to pause and reread something because there was just a complete gap in logic from one paragraph to the next as well as a plethora of typos that made those gaps in loving all the more glaring.

I like the rewriting! It sound so much better as the original film… it had more MLP character inside and the end with a conclusion of twilight is a great start for the show.

Think im just happy also maybe speak a little slower

I'm... Wow! I wish it'd been like this! I had to keep dabbing the tears from my eyes, because the story as you told it was so powerful! If you haven't already written this out as a full fan-fic, you totally should! I'll bet fans would break down doors to see a series launched from this foundation! <3

Easy answer. As per usual Howard laughs at bugs calling them "features" and pushed yet another antiquated game out the door expecting modders to fix their mess for free while he sat back counting money and soaking up all the accolades. Modders walk, game flops, Bethesda aggressively gaslights and insults its entire player base and goes to paid mods hoping to recoup losses in expected revenue. Sorry Toddy ol' boy not this time.

Haha I love how you see people with over 100 hrs in the gane dunking on it. You literally played ot for 4 days straight, but it is dog poo. I think peoole are on a doom train. Is Starfield the game I wanted, No. Are there things that could have been better? Yes Do I get bored with it? Yes? Is there enough to do that I come back? Yes. Do I want to see how it developes? Yes. People are way too black and white, nobody was robbed of their money, inless you didnt want an RPG. I have close to 90 hrs. in, and i dont think the game is great, but it is good. Right now im at the point where im trying to decided what ill do when it comes time to NG+. Yeah, Todd is a lier for sure, but this game isnt the hot garbage i am hearing about. At least that's my opinion.

I don't get why people don't like the Bastard scene in PH. True, it is taboo in our culture. So what? Batting that aside, I think this is so fitting for the situation at hand. Look at Scotch's background, this is where the taboo hits a reverse. She looks up to Blackjack, ideolizes her. What does Blackjack do after a tragic loss? Exatly that. Scotch experiences a much bigger loss. She has no coping mechanism of her own, she didn't get to develop one, so she falls back on what her idol would do.

Yours is so much better than what the real story is. They butchered the lore of g4 so much it’s back tracking a lot and now it’s as hollow as all the other shows for kids that don’t have a good plot and feels shallow.

This Is so good

It’s a “feature” to buy a full priced game and then have modders fix it. That’s definitely a take!

Id definitely would like this more it felft like gen 5 was rushed

I certainly don't care about comments like "woke". Who cares. I don't mind that my companions at Constellation are goody goody. I usually play a mostly good character anyway. If I wanted to play evil I would be a pirate, get the Crimson Fleet NPCs and just not associate with Constellation beyond the minimum. Most of the things listed here, while an interesting discussion, don't bother me too much. Here's what made me quit: 1. The repetition gets mindless 2. The dialogue sucks 3. I don't like the NPCs. They feel like cardboard cutouts (See point 2) 4. Exploration is not fun. 5. Lack of agency. OK, this is a thing in most Bethesda games, but it somehow seems more glaring in Starfield. 6. Too many things that are sort of OK but not really all that interesting. Space combat and space flight come to mind, but other things as well. I loved the ship[ building but hated the fact that there is nothing all that interesting to do with my ship after I have built it. I am a big fan of Bethesda games. I have played them all going back to Daggerfall and have loved every one of them. Multiple play throughs on every one. Starfield just doesn't do it for me.

And i commented on ramblelime's vid on FOE. And told him and his " followers" the Brony Fandom aint going anywhere and to just deal with it. I also do Fallout Equestria content as well Wubway. Modded Fallout 4 and FOE Animations. And i just now found your channel XD. Im never gonna stop being a Brony. My view is no one on this planet has the right to control what my interests are.

Bethesda's long term goal for Starfield is to avoid being Halo'd for as long as possible.
