What did you guys think about the unused concepts for G5? Was rebooting g4 but shifting things around like the girl's tribes interesting to you? Do you think the girls will come back for g6?l
>What if they made FiM but worseWow, really cool
>>42595710glad you agree, i think its a simple change but it could shift the personality of someone like twilight quite a bit
>>42595705>>42595710There is kind of a poetic beauty about how Hasbro consistently fucked up transitioning away from classic FiM to a new formula, for almost one and a half decades. They tried to replace the mane 6 and Equestria, with the Glimmer squad, replaced with eqg, replaced with the students/pillars, replaced with G5. And consistently the attempts ended disastrous, and were instantly rejected and forgotten by the global audience.How did this happen? How is Hasbro this actively, purposely incompetent, eclipsing in stupidity any other media conglomerate on the planet?
They should learn from G4 that MLP has potential as an as actual fantasy series that people could give a shit about instead of just "kiddie slop made to sell toys."No more G4, can't stand to have peak fiction ruined by new writers. G6 should be its own thing, with new characters and even better writing and lore than G4.
>>42595735>>How did this happen? How is Hasbro this actively, purposely incompetent, eclipsing in stupidity any other media conglomerate on the planet?they are jews with lowest possible time preference
>>42595705the problem i have with G5 is that it was supposed to be a g4 reboot, but Hasbro couldn't do it as Discovery had the rights to air the characters. G5 was a placeholder gen
>>42595735>The glimmer squadAre troonlighters really this threatened?
>>42595735Twilight is the princess of transitioning. At night you can hear "her" scream at Spike for her dilator.
>>42595705I love the ideas. The "inventor in a fantasy world" trope is such a good one and it's perfect for a sequel in general and for pseudo-twilight specifically. The concept stuff really does the job of seeding the imagination where the flat final product totally fails. I haven't seen much later g5 concept stuff I don't like. >>42595742It's such a shame, they literally hired like creative skilled talent to do this but didn't give them the room and freedom to work.
>>42595705I don't want them to repeat g4 over and over and over again.I'd rather have something new and bad over seeing the corpse of something I like be paraded around.
>>42595710They already did that starting in 2013.
>>42595705It's shit for unorginality and trying to recapture the magic of G4. It's good it never happened
>>42595705Yesterday also happens to be ten years since the original G4 concept art was leaked on this board.
>>42595705Depends on how it’s sold. If it’s something like Marvel’s What If, anything can be good if done well. I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with Hasbro commissioning “official fan fiction” that remixes G4 (or any other G, or a combination).
>>42595742i agree
To this day I still fail to understand how they fucked up so badly with G5?>It's set a 100+ years after the finale of G4>It makes Twilight out to be a horrifically incompetent ruler who let Equestria fracture worse than it was before the unification of the three tribes on a few years after she took power>Celestia, Luna, Cadence and Flurry Heart are nowhere to be seen>New antagonist is someone from Celestia's past and is a petty, bitter Alicorn because she thought Celestia was being a bitch to her one time>Twilight Hologram is smol Twilight and not Big Twilight >Somehow nobody fucking knows about the shit that happened in G4>Main Character is a weird fusion of Twilight and Sunset Shimmer but dumber and without their negative traits
>>42597489my man i watched whole thing and it was worse than i was worried it was going to be.>Its implied Opaline murdered twilight and the other princesses>She apparently did such a good job genociding that she turned the dragons into 5 guys and spike hiding in terror from her>Its been 'thousands of moons'>every shot of the moon the moon has celestia's mane colours, no clue why its either a design choice or they're implying celly got sent to the moon>ponkykind lives in 3 towns meaning everywhere else was probably turned to rubble>the breezies are completely fine>the tree of harmony is gone tooOpaline didn't just kill twilight, she curbstomped everything then fucked off to her tower to fap and throw things at misty
>>42597522>>Its been 'thousands of moons'Moons is another way of saying months. Meaning it's been at least 166 years at minimum.
>>42597522Either the other Alicorns are sealed on the moon, or the Elements were sent there to keep them out of Opaline's grasp. I don't know what's worse seeing as Celestia was implied to be retardedly strong when actually going all out.
>>42597619what did you expect from the a Donut steele tier alicorn
>>42597665I dunno, a reason why she was so fucking strong? Did she mantle the fucking Tree of Harmony or something? And where the fuck was Discord in all this?
>>42597675he was in the g5 comics, hes like old and busted now and doesnt do shit but mope around the RUINS of canterlot
>>42597522Damn thats based.
>>42597687>Literal reality bending god that was beaten with a Deus ex machina is reduced to a grumpy, depressed old man that can't beat a regular, non-god being AlicornThe new writers need to be hung
>>42598025he holds up the stupid crystal and says no more mutants and threatens to permanently remove magic from ponykind.
>>42598041>threatens to permanently remove magic from ponykind.Where the fuck was this when Opaline wrecked everything?
>>42598234Anon my boy its quite stupid.>Twilight realised she couldn't beat Opaline so she took all of the pony magic in Equestria and stored it in 3 crystals >This permanently removed the tribes access to their magic if they aren't getting along, 'Unity' magic, their powers only work if they're united/in harmony>The crystals only work when together and when the tribes are working together, enough arguments, no more magic>Discord somehow got ahold of it in the comic>he explains this all started because a disguised opaline was racist to fluttershy, starting the collapse of society >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zSHz7Thvbc
>>42598268>>This permanently removed the tribes access to their magicSo in other words, Twilight literally doomed all ponies that weren't Earth Ponies in some missguided attempt at making them all play nice.
>>42595742>They should learn from G4 that MLP has potential as an as actual fantasy seriesWasn't that the plan? More focus on adventure? Hell Ponyvile in these concepts was based off the Shire.
>>42598332Twilight confirmed worst pony for all time
>>42598460Why did Sunbutt leave the autist in charge?
>>42598460Why do you shovel G5 shit slop in your mouth and brag about it
>>42597522>Every shot of the the moon has celestia's mane colorsMeds.
>>42598873where is that from, i swear to fuck man every time the moon was shown in mym it had an iridescence to it
>>42598927>Doesn't recognize kinoshotsngmi
