I just watched Digital Circus for the first time. And what struck me is that this is not the type of show I thought it'd be from the fandom or discussion online. People treat it like there's a ton to theorize about and there's so many mysteries and etc etc but it's really not that. They don't talk about the exit basically at all from episodes 2-7. It's just an emotional narrative with an interesting hook about what would happen if digital copies of real human beings got trapped in a 90s video game. I haven't watched the ending yet, but it seems people are mad at it for "not answering questions," questions which don't really exist and were never the main point of the series.
>>154064204Tiktok and youtube theorists videos ruined entertainment discussion. Stuff like elden ring hollow knight fnaf undertale hello neighbour caused all of this
>>154064221>Elden Ring>Hollow KnightThose came afterwards, it was FNAF that cemented it first during the 2010s.
>>154064204>about what would happen if digital copies of real human beings got trapped in a 90s video gameAnd goosetranny still managed to fuck this lore too, all because of traumaslop. Alongside the feel of the inspired material which is i have no mouth and i must scream. The entire potential worldbuilding is discarded because of traumashit.
>>154064281>he's STILL seething about episode 7KEKAROOO
>>154064204I think if given enough time they really could work on that theory crafting, but they did a good job with the time they had. As a series finale it's a bit rushed, but it's a perfect first season of a larger show
>>154064298>WOWUZIE LMFAO WOW SEETHE COPE *snort cocaine*Ok retard, still written with the ass and a total waste of time to watch.
>>154064328>30 minutes of bad therapy and panic attacks is a good ending
>>154064204Fans of this and Undertale seem similar
>>154064221>hollow knightimagine thinking this game is anything like those other ones
>>154064204Here's the thing. There is actually a ton of threads and hints at something larger, mostly in the occult circles like Kinger needing darkness to find wisdom and knowing yourself to know what you truly want to appease God. The most in your face one was a literal NPC who started to gain awareness. But the fanbase was literally too retarded to pick up any of this and just talked about who to ship with who and who might be trans. This could all of been wrapped up or at least explained in the ending but Goose pandered to the troons and made the ending entirely about his self insert and an epilogue about the characters.
>>154064204Honestly, it's probably less that it shares a fanbase with Deltarune, and more that both Deltarune and TADC had long breaks between each installment. If you watch TADC in one go, you won't even register most of the details that spawned popular theories, but people who watched it as it came out would wait months for a new episode. Plenty of time to rewatch, analyze, discuss to death, fixate on details, and go insane.
>>154064221>Elden Ringeldenring's is loreslop, not theory slop >Hollow Knightits story is very straight forward and just requires you to read since there is no voiced dialogue no real theory discussion for that gameit also famously made game theory look retarded by trying to make it theory slop>fnaf undertale hello neighbournow these are actual theory slopand a lot of it started with fnaf and other mascot horror slopa lot of this fans theorizing and mystery bait really started from cartoons like gravity falls, adventure time and steven universe
>>154064405worked for eva
>>154064204The issue is laying out the bait there.Why focus on the ominous C&A logo during the office segment?Why mention Scratch if he barely did anything?Why did Pomni go with that entire "He wants me to suffer, I really am in hell" crashout in EP 3 that "implied" more?Why is Gangle even there since she was hit by a truck already when C&A was defunct?In the end, it didn't matter. Nothing mattered.So why put it in at all in the first place?If you add questions, people will of course want answers. Don't add shit just because "it is cool", if not for the theory bait I am sure TADC would have way less fans they it ended up being.
>>154065187TADC is the Lost of digital animation.
>>154064710Which one? EoE or the original? Because EoE was absolutely better than the Dc movie. You would be retarded to compare the 2 of them
>>154064476>"esoteric" anon is seething that the webseries for teenage autists isn't catering to his niche interests
>>154065187>Why focus on the ominous C&A logo during the office segment?Because that's the name of the company responsible for making Caine.>Why mention Scratch if he barely did anything?He made Caine and worked on the brainscan file shit because he wanted a way to live somehow in spite of his brain tumor.>Why did Pomni go with that entire "He wants me to suffer, I really am in hell" crashout in EP 3 that "implied" more?It ties in with Caine's God complex. Also it shows how horrible Caine's normal adventures are to Pomni even when he's just trying to entertain them.>Why is Gangle even there since she was hit by a truck already when C&A was defunct?Gangle tried to off herself by running into oncoming traffic. She probably was able to try on a headset due to her condition while the company was still active.
>>154064298Did you get what you wanted out of the show?>>154064204I fucking hate Deltarune but I like Caine’s VA. Necessary evils I guess
>>154066151All could be tossed away without losing anything because it didn't matter except make people upset because the hooks were put there in the first place.
>>154066151There it is, plain answers for plain questions. NTA, I suppose the problem was that questions weren’t answered, the big problem is that the questions were never worth asking to begin with. All they wanted to do was bask in their own feelings and how super important modern issues are when they really aren’t.TADC insists upon itself
>>154066270you quote family guy, you're smart.
>>154066305At least with Family Guy there’s no pretense. I don’t even like FG
>>154066333lmao retard
>>154066401This industry has been taken over by people pissed off at the idea of standards
>>154066422standards like Family Guy :)
>>154066151>while the company was still activeRagatha's the earliest one there besides Kinger and she joined in 2008. I think C&A was defunct by then. Doesn't make sense for Gangle to die while it was still around.
>>154066450No, they don’t have standards either
>>154064204Actually it's because it shares the fanbase with mascot horror-adjacent baby stuff in general.
>>154064204Yeah same, people were all surprised they were AI but Caine literally keeps calling them sentient AIs
>>154065935>proving my point that you troons only cared about gender political shit in your shows with your dishonest argument
>>154064204It's by sharing a fanbase with homestuck, which does share a fanbase with deltarune
>>154067981Deltarune wasnt as much about as theorycrafting as it was just trying to shape the story their way
>>154068137>Deltarune*****Homestuck
>>154064204>They don't talk about the exit basically at all from episodes 2-7.You retard. Soma was correct the entire time and where all the actual theories were based upon.
>>154064204Tadc got hundreds of millions of views instead of stopping around 20 million like the other pilots because 90% of the fanbase came from this
>>154064454TADC fans come from DDLC fans which came from FNAF fans which came from Undertale fans which came from Homestuck fans.
>>154066270Posing the questions generates Youtube revenue for free which is the only thing that matters
>>154065187>Why is Gangle even there since she was hit by a truck already when C&A was defunct?Did she? The truck thing isn't elaborated on at all>In the end, it didn't matter. Nothing mattered.>So why put it in at all in the first place?The show is riding entirely on the premise, the character designs, and the animation quality. The actual story is just a tranny venting.
>>154064204>I haven't watched the ending yet, but it seems people are mad at it for "not answering questions," questions which don't really exist and were never the main point of the series.So you didn't watch it but you feel the need to spew your uneducated opinions at people who did watch it
