No, /co/lts alone would never have been enough. Bronies are as much a creation of /b/ as they are of /co/.
/co/ discovered the show, analyzed Lauren Faust’s animation pedigree, gave the show its initial artistic legitimacy, analysis and created the early comfy threads. But it was a small and slow-moving board. If the phenomenon had stayed contained there, it would have just been another niche, obscure /co/ favorite. Without /b/, the show would have remained a darling, alongside shows like Sym-Bionic Titan or Wakfu, invisible to the wider internet. When the threads leaked from /co/ to /b/, it triggered a massive cultural friction. Half of /b/ fell in love with the unironic innocence of the show (see >>43276112), while the other half hated it and tried to ban it. It was /b/’s massive population, lack of filters, and weaponized, excessive ponyposting that got the trend going. That internal war is what caused the excessive shitposting, trolling and "mods are asleep, post ponies!" threads. The constant thread-hiding, bans and raids forced the pony fans to flood other boards and external sites just to survive. /co/ gave the fandom its heart and artfags, but /b/ gave it its weaponized autism and survival instinct. Without /b/’s brute-force spamming, the brony phenomenon would have never broken out into the mainstream.
/co/ was the fandom's substance, but /b/ was its attitude.

>i've been watching sloptubers talk about it

>>43281311
I saw the first three episodes and the last episode before the finale. I can already tell what every character's "arc" will be because they are all stereotypical faggots. TADC has some cool stuff like the melodies, not songs, and "80's" game aesthetics , but overall it is just another Rick and Morty self-aware slop that is more genuine and at least tries. Yet overall, it's boring, not funny, and sometimes overly dramatic and edgy with Cain's going mad scene and song.
If you took out all the "deep" stuff like anxiety attacks and "I 'm lonely and misunderstood, therefore I 'll be mean to others" arc that will end with Jax opening up, then I would call TADC good.

But games like “Undertale” have “genocide routes” where this is pretty much the objective.

>>43280282
I wonder how that mechanic would work in Gameoverse.
Do the good guys reset as well? Or are they "outside" of the game's rules?

>>43280282
>>43280392
well the thing with undertale is that the game breaks the rules of their own universe.

>>43280282
isnt that route like you're not the one in control so it wasnt your decision

>>43281058
(You) are in control in both routes. Is up to you if you raise your blade or your hand.
"Pacifist" are for those who don't want to kill these guys with feelings and day-to-day activities. "Genocide" is if you don't give a fuck, and treat the game as any other RPG.
Sans at the end tells you: LV stands for Level of Violence. And if you reach 20, you are basically the end of universes incarnated.
This makes me wonder if people ever did a "True Genocide" run where you kill everyone, sell your soul, and kill everyone again.

2013-2025 were my years that I actually played and I miss the era of 2010-2014, and I’d definitely want them back, 2006-2009 is too clumsy and technologically inadequate and also killed by retarded post 2019 fags buying into “nostalgia” marketing. Most of the major titles that I know were made around or started during 2010-2015 when the engine was at its strongest (peaking at 2016, before getting progressively shittier performance wise due to bloat) said games are Apocalypse Rising, Mad Murderer, Flood Escape, Epic Minigames etc.
Roblox became a husk of itself post 2016 when public trading of the company became the only guiding force. Investors pretty much slowly burnt the company until 2026 where they finally began accelerating the delusion fueled death of it by enforcing mandatory identity verification to do just about anything now (upload games for the masses (including unverified accounts), upload developer assets, upload fucking audio (~2021 during the great audio purge that completely killed all copyright or copyright adjacent audio (think songs), etc.)
By the end of 2026 when they force roll out all the garbage they’re incrementally forcing on countries like the UK, Australia, Indonesia for “testing”, then that’s the day the platform finally fucking dies hopefully, there’ll still be retarded children playing on it, but that doesn’t matter if the majority of developers simply refuse to verify with their identity and fucking pay 1k (~20$) or 5$/mo for “Roblox plus” then get taxed heavily (60%+) and unable to do commissions because of the retarded “new robux transfer” system and the removal of game passes.
It pains me to see it go, but it’s a mandatory death and should hopefully be a lesson to the retarded WEF investors (since that’s who bought majority stock and who have the “metaverse” delusion) that they need to fucking go outside of their walled off houses and maybe see what’s happening outside.

I once did that, and it lasted until 1011, so Equestria only had a few weeks to recover from the civil war and deal with the civil war and major war debuffs before the Changelings attacked. The Changelings got stomped because the civil war lets Equestria mobilise faster.

If the game is shallow then why do you need lower difficulty to have fun in it? Curious, isnt it?

That is very much wrong. Teh civilian and recruit difficulty actively make AI more retarded, because I do play the game and dont need to rely on wiki shttery to prop my point.

Some people enjoy a challenge. Others play to relax. Sometimes people are in a mood for different things. It's still shallow.
>That is very much wrong. Teh civilian and recruit difficulty actively make AI more retarded, because I do play the game and dont need to rely on wiki shttery to prop my point.
I also play the game, retard. The AI is the same unless if you use the EAW custom game settings to add smarter AI. Nothing in the difficulty select screen talks about anything other than the stated buffs and debuffs. In game, the challenge at the higher difficulties is from playing around the buffs and debuffs because you have to adapt to the simple numerical changes.
>It was actually NLR that killed them.
I see. Did you set it to the extreme civil war instead of the normal civil war?

While the rx 480-490 and 580-590 are popular for budget builds i was talking specifically about the low-profile cards (rx 450/460 rx 550 560 etc). Most of them are slot powered only so you won't need to buy a new power supply unit and will already be a massive jump from integrated graphics if you can get atleast a 2gb vram card and it supports dx12 and modern vulkan (with a few extensions missing because of hardware limits). It won't run anything you throw at it... well maybe it will if you use FSR and avoid raytracing and dx12_1/vulkan mesh shaders extension titles. Oh, you might also need to cap the max power from the gpu if you have a 230-250W psu and don't want to buy a new one. While it says 230W the motherboard railing has only a chunk of that. Usually in these simpler psus most of the power goes to the motherboard where the processor and your card will be, and that would be around 180W for the usual 230W psu. If you aren't confident on your psu quality you can assume it can only deliver 70-75% of that, so that leaves you with like, 130-135W on the motherboard railing.

You kiss Knifepoint good morning. On the nipple. And start your breakfast with milk before the oats while the big zebra mare moans awake.

"So you've done a couple jobs already?" You inquire, once you're done with your morning fuck and that you're down in the common room of the inn for breakfast. "Was it anything out of the ordinary?"
"Eh. Nothing too original." Knifepoint shrugs. "I've been asked to gather information about the shifts in some place. Gotta say, not that long ago, I would have sneaked into the office and looked for a calendar or stuff, but this time, all I had to do was to pin an employee against the wall and ask him nicely to get what I needed. I also got to work as a bodyguard for another pony during some heated business talk. You can probably guess that nopony dared to make a scene on my watch."

"I see you're getting in the business of this city." You nod. "But you also said you'd like to have other ponies work for you. Are you sure this gonna work? It's not that easy to manage a whole team."
"You think it's gonna be an issue?" Knifepoint cocks an eyebrow. "Once I got the coins to pay some goons, I won't leave them a chance to steal from me or anything. Besides, whenever they'll look at me, there'll see a very persuasive hint of what could happen to them if they try to cross me."
"I believe there's more to being a leader than that, but I'm sure that'll come with experience and work." You add. "My point is, I'm here if you need support."
"Sure. Thanks, Hearty." She chuckles. "I'll be sure to call you if some of my ponies need to be lulled to sleep, or if some mare wants to grow some giant tits."
"That already sounds much nicer than intimidating your workforce into compliance all the time." You smile. "You're learning the trade already. I'm so proud of you!"

Similarly, the jewelry ranges from simple colored stones mounted on polished wooden neckpieces, to tiaras glittering with a hundred diamonds crimped on the silver threads. There are also more flower varieties that you can name, chocolate to purchase, cheese from cow and goats from the mountains, or libraries with even more selection that in Port Sunrise. You think you could find about anything you could want around these streets.

There are also plenty of shops dedicated to adventurers. Only in this district, you already see a large selection of interesting items even aside from the weapons and armors.

An instrument you can wield that has a few additional properties that you activate by playing the instrument. At will, you may animate the nearby plants so they may speak intelligibly to you, giving you information about their surroundings. At will, you may attempt to soothe animals or living plants. You may also spend 1 mana to attempt to cast a soothing spell on ponies or other sentient creatures, greatly lowering their aggression and making them more aggregable for a while. As this is a form of mind alteration, ponies who realize they've been under that spell will not like it.

>Burning resolve (pendant)
>600 coins
When you fail to beat a DC during a quest, you lose 1 mana and get one additional reroll. This effect is triggered again until you beat the DC or until you're out of mana.

>Hero's trial (pendant)
>440 coins
Double the effect of your flaws. You gain 20% more xp from quests, 50% more if your flaw was triggered at least once during a quest.

Now with a good idea about the selection of items to purchase in the capital, next on your list is to visit the Conservatory, where the guild of bards could help you find a scene for Chara. This task brings you to the official district. The streets get really wide around the royal castle, and on your way, you see a huge coliseum as well as the courthouse of the capital, both shining in the sun as they seem to be built with some light, almost white marble. As for the Conservatory, the building has the shape of a large, three-story manor with a very wide garden. The sound of music welcomes you there as some artists are repeating their measures in the middle of trees, fountains and sculptures. Inside, the walls are covered with paintings of all styles and sizes, and the desk that you approach is engraved with a scene of a little crowd of ponies blissfully frolicking in a field of flowers.

An aria for the sirens
>Location: Aloes Islands
>Client: Mayor Black Pepper
>Ever since the islands have been inhabited, the eastern part of the archipelago has remained desert. The reason being that a colony of sirens, powerful ocean dwellers, inhabits this region. They've taken away ponies who merely treaded nearby, making them disappear under the waves, lured by their enthralling voices. However, recent discoveries in ancient texts of indigenous tribes indicate a possible origin for this hostility. Long ago, the story reads, the sirens got curious about the ponies who sailed over their waters, and went to greet them. The sirens asked to see the most beautiful thing the ponies had to offer, however, may it be in sculpture, dance, writing, painting or any other display of beauty, each time the sirens remained unimpressed, and instead were able to show a greater, more impressive piece of art that left the ponies of old in awe. This culminated in a contest of singing, at the end of which the ponies, probably completely seduced by the siren's songs, swore them fealty for as long as they couldn't match such beauty themselves. If there's any truth to this story, perhaps there could be a way to achieve some form of understanding, or at least a truce with these sirens, if we could show that a piece or a demonstration of art that could impress them enough to revise their judgement. In all cases, I wish for adventurers to find a way the make the eastern part of the archipelago safe from the sirens.

The thief seems to target artist mares of all kind, stealing a single piece of clothing from them while they're on the scene. The perpetrator has taken a habit of leaving a letter after their misdeeds, in which they'd describe the salacious thoughts they entertain about the victim and the depraved acts they plan to do with their haul. However, the display of thieving skills to perform these despicable acts is baffling. No lock has resisted this thief thus far, none of the guards at the door could catch a glimpse of them, and the one time a guard was stationed inside the changing room, we then found him knocked out by sleeping darts. We need adventurers skilled enough to catch this evil-doer!
