following up anon about gladlands, i agree that it's overhated but i think the season is overshadowed by munis arc above all else. its a great story and the roleplay brought me to tears but also it's only a 6 episode season that i felt like didn't have space to dive deeper into the other characters besides small bits. this season would've done much better with either more episodes or less cast at the table. it tried to fit too much into too little time. which on one hand is on brand with the chaotic nature of the gladlands itself but also for themes of supporting your own community it felt like it tried to rush through too many things. maybe there's some value in focusing less on some characters and letting them simply exist within the story and that's fine and i can agree to that but it is a season that's kind of leaning to have been one man show-ish. its a great season but it fell short where it needed to stay somewhat stable

I really love gladlands and I think it's overhated. every other post i see about gladlands on this website is some kind of snark and it makes me so sad. I think we need more seasons of d20 where it's just a bunch of guys trying to do good in the world and it's wholesome and sweet and shit

I don’t like the minis. I KNOW it’s hard to make them and I would ABSOLUTELY do so much worse if I tried it, but I have never once look at a mini that didn’t look fugly to me. Like the actual maps and battle boards? Gorgeous works of art. The big things, the maxis? Absolutely would drop several grand buying those. But the minis are terrible looking to me. Like just go back and look at any of the minis’ faces and tell me I’m wrong. I am, however, absolutely morally in the wrong and that’s why I’m posting this anonymously because I have to scream this to the void and get it off my chest.

i think there’s way too much hate for characters like kristen + fig, especially kristen. she’s a wreck, yes, but she’s also disappointed in herself for the ways she can’t follow through. this is a kid who got completely disowned by her family and her religion at a young age and hit the pipeline of “completely controlled by others” to “handed free will without being taught how to manage it.”

there’s an extensive theme throughout fh about children that are left behind by the systems they come from (ragh, zayn, riz, fig, adaine, gorgug, buddy, fabian, etc) and kristen applebees is not exempt. her floundering, while bizarre, is an integral part of her rejection of helioic faith. she has zero experience with applying personal insight and logic because she grew up in a cult that intentionally keeps its followers from these things. which we see exemplified in mac and donna specifically.

all this to say, kristen applebees, they could never make me hate you + you deserve a season of the complicated women’s podcast on identity loss and the stages of change

I love bleem but I do think he can be a bit of a let down when it comes to finales. Fantasy high freshman year is perfect, but like cloudward ho and fhjy's final battles just feel a bit underwhelming? I don't know.

Gorgug is an underrated but insanely good representation for autism and I don’t think people talk about that enough.
