Everyone else was insufferable.
>>218695191>you're not supposed to be rooting for them in real life.
>>218695191Like many modern writers, they seem to be better at writing characters they hate than characters they identify with. Its probably more fun too.
They realized everyone was doing this and completely fucked the last season.
>>218695191Amazon fucked up bad with this show.Imagine making a show about if the Confederacy won and the alt-South is a technologically advanced utopia and the CASA (Confederate American Space Agency) at Cape Canaveral is sending a mission to Mars thanks to the power of southern ingenuity and slave labour
>>218695518lelDid you ever see that mockumentary that shows a world where the Confederacy won? They had commercials for runaway slave services and such.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMSKAZObGxQclip, and full video'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exnwTWfFRM8
The main two characters (can't remember their names) the guy working in the pawn shop that woman as well must be the most boring protagonists of anything in the history of mankind. They were boring to watch, everything they did dragged on forever, there was zero interesting plot developments related to them, legitimately a chore to watch them do anything. It's almost like they even moved and emoted as if in slow motion. And every shot of them was them just looking slightly concerned, but almost emotionlessly so. It's like there were no extreme emotions or actions on their part, just dull blandness.
>>218695518>>218695191>>218695425>>218695287>>218695291>>218695897>>218695969Only season 1 is based on the book. Season 2-4 are all fan fic, and season 4 was a victim of the woke era + I think one of the main actors died or didn't want to make the 4th season.If you read the book the treat the Japanese and Germans as completely normal for the most part in America and the there is an underground fear about a ticking time bomb of Japan and Germany going to war. The book is absolute fucking kino, and it does point out all the evil shit both countries would be doing to Americans. I feel like season 2 kinda fleshed it out a little bit, but yeah 3 and especially 4 are extremely weak but still watchable. Also the main American Nazi guy is not a bad guy, he's an American military man that has no choice but to continue military service under Germany since America surrendered.The 4th season at least has a bat shit insane ending that makes no sense.
>>218695191The entire situation is retarded, Germany and Japan had no plans to land in America and could not have done so if they tried. The continental US is a fortress surrounded by deserts, mountains and oceans, and there is a gun behind every blade of grass.
>>218696090is the book worth reading or is it just liberal moralizing?
>>218696298The premise is retarded but the book is okay
>>218695897There's this RPG system called GURPS with a two-book series called Infinite Worlds/Alternate Worlds where they grab a random country and wank the hell out of them so they keep rolling sixesThere's a setting where the confederacy stalemates the Union and people are still keeping slaves in Dixie in *current year*, a Nazi victory against America setting, one where Tesla invents everything 50 years earlier and defeats Stalin and his nuclear arsenal with a globalist association of scientists, Ming China industrializes firstIt's such great fun
>>218696090I think I stopped at three, but I saw the scene where Smith kills Himmler somewhere else.
>>218696725Probably should've spoiled that.
>watch S1>how come it's snowing>oh it's the weekly retard incineration this is played straight btw
>>218696783Lol
>>218695191Why are Nazis even in this shit? The book is max schizocore.https://youtu.be/Q7SxTm_LQW4
>>218696825All I remember from the book is that it has some weird Congratulations Shinji ending that breaks the fourth wall or some shit like that. Just a weird trippy conclusion.
>>218696298The book is something completely different. Nazis are more like a distant news headlines than characters. There's supernatural beings, and Americana and White culture are all the rage and huge commodities to the Japanese and has a power all it's own.>>218696333 is right, but the characters in the book even discuss an alternate history where America and allies won, and argue over which is the more absurd reality.The Man in the High Castle is a rung halfway up the ladder of madness in P.K.D.'s writings higher than Electric Sheep and Flow my Tears, but mercifully below Ubik and Valis.
>>218696298The book is very short and season 1 covers it almost entirely.
>>218696298The book is written by Philip K Dick whose works also got adapted into Blade Runner, Total Recall and Minority Report.He is mostly schizo posting about the I Ching in the book.
What the hell was with this super big and thick wall against the neutral zone.>Also one path for adults and one path for children (the Nazis are separating kids from their parents at the border, just like Trump!)
>>218697139Unreal engine 2?
>>218695191They didn't want you to, but of course, just like in reality, the third positionists are the only intelligent and brave people of quality in the room, and so yes, ethically and spiritually, you were supposed to be rooting for "the Nazis." The production didn't want you doing this, though, because Jews.
I could only watch S1 but it was more miserable and boring than my own life.Should I also watch S2 and stop there?
>>218697490The hauntology is strong with this one
>>218695191Problem is they cast leads devoid of any and all charisma while the antagonists were actually better actors.
>>218695191Its criminal what they did on the last season, the premise that the idea of America would survive an occupation was really interesting, only for the writers to pussy out and make the antagonist fail to learn a lesson he already learned on past seasons. Its like they brushed something profound only to do nazi bad m'kay.btw I gotta say costume design was on point all the way to the end, the red white and blue arm bands were a neat idea
>>218695291This phenomenon exists because in order to be accepted by the media gatekeepers (studios, big investors) the good guy characters must exist as avatars of the current ideology. Since the ideology cannot be depicted as wrong or even questioned in good faith you can never have good guys be realistically flawed and nuanced characters and therefore they can never be particularly compelling, except outside of extremely contrived and absurd scenarios that are, again, not compelling because they are so disconnected from authentic human experience.
>>218695291>>218698688>write characters you're supposed to hate>audience ends up liking them more
>>218698422>antagonists
>>218698956>The same lame copy pasta Get better materialWhat is next, the one saying Nazi are trans?
>>218695191I liked the nazis in this game simply because they talked less than the cringe reddit twins you're forced to play as.
This was kino. Utterly insane how they then immediately shat on it in the next episode.My understanding is that like what people have said ITT, Amazon got tetchy that viewers were enjoying the Nazi characters more than the garbage resistance, plus ideological writers who believed Nazi characters can't have any nuance whatsoever and don't deserve any redemption like what they were teasing for Smith.Also though it seems to be that Amazon cancelled it very last minute so there really should have been another season with Smith in charge of America. Can't imagine the ending would be any less dogshit though, just less rushed.
>my high-ranking nazi husband is... DOING LE NAZI THINGS WHICH I WAS ALREADY AWARE OF?!
Is this based on Donald Trump and his incel maga followers?
>>218695191You’re either just a fascist simp or a moron who thinks “I like a character hence the character must be good and do nothing wrong”.
>>218695191Is this show worth to watch only for the Nazis?
>>218701386Only the first season. But that first season, yeah.
>>218695425This
>>218695191I liked it up to S4.
>>218695191contextually season 1 came out in early 2015 and season 2 didn't come out until a few months after Trump got elected, in case you're wondering why the show took such a hard shift between the first season the and rest of the show
>>218695191how tf did japs take over half of the usa again? wasnt the lore just nazis nuke usa or something?how do you go from that to japan with their pathetic island luau tank force & paper planes ever being able to fight on a mainland
>>218698422one of the first impressions you get is of the whiny and pathetic jew who's alexa davalos's bf. what a weird choice, i doubt anyone was sympathetic to him. if it was just alexa davalos and the joe kid from the start, it would be better>>218701386absolutely
>>218696298PKD was not a liberal or a moralizer, read a fucking book nigger
>>218695425It's what happens in most of these kind of things. Wolfenstein has to do it in the most blatant way, but somehow no one ever notices.>Whichever the last one was I played, New Order maybe>Set in the 1960s in alternate history>We have to kill the Nazis because they're holding back humanity>Even though everything points to them massively advancing humanity>Such as having bases on the Moon>Something we don't even have now irl and we're 60 years beyond the point of when the game is set>But the Nazis don't like blacks or Jews or something so humanity can't advance until everyone gets along>Except we don't want to get along with Nazis and we just need to kill them>In spite of them objectively showing how much they're advancing humanityIt's beyond retarded.
You guys are fat neckbeard autists how can you like the nazis?
>>218703039Yeah but they're evil because they're evil because they're cartoon villains because they're evil because they're nazis because they're evil etc etc etc
>>218696298All books are Jewish psy ops, you shouldn't read and only watch capekino
>>218695191
>>218703039>What could be wrong with a society that actively seeks to mass exterminate whatever vague minority they’re scapegoating today
>>218703039Reminds me of the recent Peacemaker season having Chris end up in a parallel world where everything's better, he has a stable relationship, his dad and brother are alive, yet he throws it all away because there are no "people of color"
>>218702934There's an assassination attempt at some US president that happened irl that is successful in the book which led to the US not recovering from the great depression like in our timeline (and so they were never able to stop Japans expansion in Asia).
>>218703200Literally no one has ever attempted extermination of any group "for no reason," not once, it's never happened, not even once.
>>218703039>le nazi scientific ingenuitythis is such a tiresome trope. nazi engineering was notoriously retarded and way behind the allies in most fields. their tanks were over-engineered and barely useable for real world situations, a Sherman was vastly superior to a Tiger in actual combat. and even fucking japanese airplanes were better than german ones.yet pop culture picks the single field (rocketry) where they were ahead and builds an entire laughable supremacy narrative around it.there is no way in hell the nazis would ever have gone to the moon if they had won. wernher von braun only became a genius after working for the allies, under a liberal economic system with a democratic government that actively supported him.the nazi government was unironically holding him back. and this isnt even mentioning that most higher echelons of the nazi party were actively anti-science and rather believed in esoteric, pagan creation myths than jewish rocket equations. the idea that these niggers wouldve gone to space is laughable, they wouldve spent their money searching for atlantis
>>218703338>Semitic typing noises
>>218703200You're delusional buddy. Groups have characteristics. That's how they're differentiated and identified as groups. Some groups' characteristics are grievously antithetical to the interest of other groups. When the caustic group insists on burrowing within the survival magisteria of another group, that other group will try to remove them. If that struggle proves pernicious enough, extermination becomes required and quite often justified.
>>218703356>a Tiger tank has shitty transmission and engine, if it breaks down in combat for any reason, you need specialized trucks to tow it, a crane to put it on a train, move it 400 miles behind the frontline, and spend 2 months in repair because they practically have to disassemble the entire thing to replace a single engine part>a Sherman tank can be towed by another Sherman, move it 2 miles behind the front and a team of 6 mechanics and fix it in a day with a wrench>S-SHUT UP YOU JEW! NAZI ENGINEERING WAS B-BASED!!!!
>>218703200Stop raping kids
>>218703338Honing in specifically on overengineered German tanks is just the other side of the Wehraboo coin.
>>218703460r/historymemes is not a viable source
>>218701368Watch the show retard.
>>218696298Original anon, read it. Like the other guy said, it's a short book. Its written in such a way that it becomes easily visible in your mind. I feel like season 1 rushes the book, while the book is paced very well.
>>218699583That's funny. I like this game because it's just non stop Nazi genocide. Especially like stomping on them from a second story, or using the electric gun. Rifle when maxed out is great for Nazi head sniping and the throwing knives/hatchets are great for stealth kills. I also like how this game portrays the idea of the Fourth Reich.
They made the resistance boring. I would say we didn't even need them, we could have just had the Japs and the American Nazis getting more and more paranoid about each-other and have a peka of what the new regimes.
>>218701386Seasons 1 and 2 are watchable. You are permitted to stop watching there because it really gets horrendous.
>>218703452And that’s why we must erase white men from the world
>>218704738It's white people's planet, retarded Jew.
Season 1 is so comfy. I'm watching it with my gf right now.
>>218707316holy shit you’re a faggot.
