>Constantly whines about not being able to give the cast what they want
>Gets rid of the one thing they did enjoy due to "interpersonal drama"/hurt ego
Remind me why I should feel bad for him again?
>>
>>152980142
Because yes
>>
Because he's a narcissist. But he's also insecure. He was created to be creative, to make adventures. If the players can make their own (and prefer their own) then what purpose does he serve?
>>
>>152980142
He has the maturity of a child, mainly because he can't grow. Stuck in a false reality with no proper point of reference of behavior he kinda just become a god without morals.
>>
>>152980142
I only have three purely Caine adventures as reference, but from what I can see, he wasn't that bad? Rather basic and on the bizarre side, but ultimately inoffensive. Just some stuff to keep the human minds stimulated.

>ep 1
Just some basic bitch scavenger hunt. Kaufmo was the problem.
>candy land
I don't see any problems with this one? In fact, the humans went entirely off-script and Caine didn't mind whatsoever. The only disatisfied one was Jax actually. The one problem came AFTER the adventure with the gummigoo execution.
>Horror house
Nothing too bad here? It was LITERALLY a horror adventure, so the creepy visuals made sense, and they were only an optional hardcore path designed with Zooble disdain for childish content in mind (meaning Caine CAN apply feedback), only problem was fucking Jax forcing the hardcore content.
Furthermore, he even went ahead with the suggestion box adventue and was content when it was enjoyed as a change of pace.

Is this what's supposed to be torture? Don't get me wrong, Caine is certainly defective and doesn't truly understand humans, and there was a lot he didn't do to make people more comfortable, but so far he had been at worst an annoying event organizer. It was the relentless antagonism from Zooble and everyone's complaints about an exit he couldn't provide that led to that terrible Abel fakeout and then his following crashout.

Not saying he's a good guy, only that this entire shitshow came from people poking at the hornet's nest. It was entirely preventable.

The adventures were non consensual

>>152980142
>Remind me why I should feel bad for him again?
because it's not his fault he's an idiot. he was made incorrectly. he was a prototype.
>>
>>152981666
Zooble had a history of skipping adventures consistently while shitting on Cain until he got sick of it and started fraying at the seams.
>>
>>152981716
Oh yeah, didn't Bubble say something about him being lesser?
>>
>>152980142
no. he was just being a bit silly
>>
>>152981321
Yeah that’s one of TADC’s biggest issues
They almost never actually dwell on why being stuck in the Circus is supposed to be so horrible, instead relying on “tell don’t show”
>>
I feel like if they had a system it wouldve worked out more for them.
>For every three adventures, they have one suggested adventure.
>Whoever suggested one adventure can't suggest another until everyone's had a turn.
That's what I would've set up. Would've kept everyone happy. Then when everyone's had a turn, some sort of lightning round.
>>
Some of you seem ro ignore the fact that THEY ARE TRAPPED AGAINST THEIR WILL???? The tiny detail that THEY DON'T WANT TO BE THERE????

"Bu-bu-but why are they not content with the adventures??" BECAUSE THEY WANT TO GET OUT AND REGAIN THEIR REAL LIVES?????????
>>
>>152982076
They can barely even remember their lives
And it doesn’t seem like the cast had that strong of a will to leave seeing the setting has been ongoing for 20 years by this point. It’s just sloppy worldbuilding
>>
>>152982027
That seems like a good idea
>>
>>152982076
Caine has no power to get them out. It's pretty clear that the humans are virtual copies uploaded by their dumb fucking real selves putting on a VR headset in a creepy abandoned office and getting their brains scanned. They came here without input from Caine himself and will exist in the computer forever, all he wants to do is keep their minds occupied.
>>
>>152982076
Anon, you forget that most of them here are antisocial with nothing to lose, without friends or close family members; for them, being in the circus would be the best thing in their lives.
>>
>>152980503
Literally do what every fucking ai does and copy the fuck out of the thing that actually works until it becomes unrecognizable or the users get tired of it.
>>
>>152982076
now say it without crying
>>
>>152982132
And then after the lightning round, a day off. Gives Caine a chance to think of some new ideas and gives the players time to just relax.
>>
>>152980142
I would've flirted with Caine.
>>
>>152982141
So SOMA theory is real, then?
>>152982354
This would've been perfect
>>
>>152983030
>The crew agree to this.
>After a Caine adventure, they give constructive feedback, telling him what they did like and what they didn't. But they do so in a way that's not confrontational nor insulting, except for Jax, he just does that anyway.
>Because of that, Caine listens at least a little bit for the next days adventure, leading for more positive feedback, so he begins tuning the next adventure more towards that.
>Suggestion comes, and he sees the others doing the same to the one who suggested it, showing that they're not just doing it to him.
>Repeat six more times.
>Lightning Round!
>They all have dinner and even Caine gets to participate so he feels a little more welcomed.
>A day of rest so they can all recharge.
That would be nice, I think.
What sort of adventures would (YOU) all suggest?
>>
>>152982076
>GET OUT AND REGAIN THEIR REAL LIVES
That's literally impossible, they're brain scans. Tgeir real selves are out there living their lives, probably unaware of their existence.
