Can someone please remind me of all the plot threads and mysteries left unanswered in the finale? I wanna analyze why it's so unsatisfying

>Why is the power in the C&A building still on
>Who sabotaged Kinger's console
>How were they able to learn conjuring so fast
>How did Caine survive getting deleted
>>
"The show didn't spoonfeed me all the answers to things that don't matter at all" is a terrible criticism.
>>

Okay nigga so the fact that the power can go out in that shitty abandoned building doesn't matter? That they can literally die any minute and this lesbo paradise is gonna be over? Or do they have access to the internet? We don't fucking know. Just eat your fucking slop chud!! Who sabotaged the console and killed Caine? Who cares!! Why is Zooble okay with their body all of a sudden? That doesn't matter bro!
>>
I feel like Zoomers are way too okay with not ambiguous plot decisions but actual fucking plot holes. Too much theory slop got everybody too used to this shit

It's unsatisfying for the same reason seasonal shows are unsatisfying.
The showrunner has a bunch of characters with no story, put them into a world based on a jewish story about humanity being extinct with the last human suffering torture eternally, and then applied an episodic format that subjectively explores how shallow the setting is whilst adjusting character personalities to fit the episode.

You were waiting for the good episode to happen, to prove everything meant something, and it never did, now you're upset.

How about you stop being a fag?

I'd say only your first and last points are actually somewhat worthwhile, primarily the second though as the real answer to the first is "So the plot can happen" unfortunately. The other two are answered directly in the text if you were paying attention.

>Bubble’s send-off is so unceremonious Goose had to clarify he was dead in a fucking tweet
>In a show about people slowly learning to trust each other, Caine’s mental dilemma is resolved by literally deleting the intrusive thoughts
>Ragatha is one of the most underdeveloped characters of all time
>Kinger gets no resolution to his character at all, he gets like maybe five lines in the finale
>Learning their real identities feels like a waste of time when the whole point is to embrace what they have in the Circus
>A solid chunk of screen time that could have gone to world building goes to Jax angsting over Ribbit for like the fifteenth fucking time
Most of the hysterics surrounding Jax’ death is from children who don’t understand the concept of what a “tragedy” is, so I’m not including that.

They aren't watching these shows. They're adopting fandoms as identities so they can find social groups.
It's 87.5% of people who are like this and it's just that internet access has gotten so easy that the socialites aren't being filtered by the difficulty anymore.

Deleted data can be recovered if you're fast enough and you don't overwrite the space with other data.

>lorebait the entire time and then complain when viewers ask for answers

>>153995738
Deleting things via the console/terminal is permanent, doesnt go to a bin
>>
>>153995778
Ignoring that it's literally a story with no stakes which is why he came back,
you can recover deleted data even from reformatted drives which is why schizos with actual things to hide recommend magnets.
Now would they be on a computer with the software to do that? No, but that's not as far fetched as being multiple fully functioning human brainscans on a '90s HDD alongside a fully functioning real AI.

Bubble was a genuinely fun character that literally got the Poochie treatment.
>>
Why has no one new ever entered the Circus after Pomni?
>>
>>153995431
The character's equivalent to continued life support isn't important, in a lore show no less?
>>
SOMA spoiled you with writers who thought about this kind of thing.

That and people pissed that a main character fucking died offscreen.

Or /b/tards who want you to nuke your dad's PC for the lulz.

the reason its unsatisfying is not because of plot holes and unanswered mysteries. actually if it ended with mysteries it would be memorable. because episode 7 and 8 eight defied my expectations, i thought episode 9 was gonna be a big reveal. it made me think, what is this show really gonna be about? is it going to say something new? i felt like it had the potential. the plot twists, the characters' tranny therapy talk session, the inspiration from I Have No Mouth made me brace for some crazy shit. something completely new. instead it just ended up being straightforward.

>>153995294
most of the plot threads were red herrings that were never meant to mean anything. turns out doing that is bullshit!
