What killed the fantasy genre?
W, Ns, and Js.
For me, it's having a panty fetish.
>>219176061Diversity
is this from the netflix one piece show
>>219176061
>>219176061Why do girls look good no matter what, but dudes have to work out to not look completely pathetic?
>>219176061Japan flooded the market with>Reincarnated as a jizzmopper in another world after my dead end salaryman career literally killed meAnd now nobody takes it seriously
>>219176192Because you are a simple minded animal
>>219176061Me. Sorry, I rolled a natural 1.
The double whammy of World of Warcraft and anime becoming mainstream in the 00s. Before that fantasy was niche and fantasy fans were mostly intelligent mature men who liked history and mythology and liked grounded and more realistic depictions of fantastical places with heroes who were at their strongest only slightly super human like Conan and Aragorn. After WoW and anime came onto the scene fantasy was flooded with normies and autists both of whom had shit tastes and fantasy became an overblown cartoon where everyone is a technicolor video game character wearing 400 pound plate armor and wielding 15 foot long weapons capeshit fighting skyscraper sized monsters by jumping 50 feet in the air and effortlessly hurling giant neon colored spells.
Actually, fantasy is doing better than ever lil bub.
>>219176112no you newfag
>>219176098this
>>219176061gonna need a source senpai
>>219176511It was just come cats reenacting Frank Frazzetta art.
>>219176511Meatcard.com>b-b-but that site has been defunct for years!!You asked for the sauce.
>>219176349World of Warcraft's damage to the fantasy genre is wildly understated. Ever since this shit came out 90% of fantasy settings are ridiculous kitchen sinks full of clashing aesthetics, nonsensical worldbuilding and far too varied technology. New fantasy isn't based on original ideas, unique concepts, classical history or mythology, it's just "other fantasy setting with a slight difference". Of course, the fantasy they're ripping off is also just a lame knockoff of some other fantasy setting, which is also just a lame knockoff of some OTHER fantasy setting, on and on and on. Fantasy used to be the most imaginative and creative genre, that's the whole point of fantasy. Now it's the least.
>>219176092Whites niggers and jews? What?
>>219177467W is the nigger of genders
Dungeons and Dragons ruined fantasy by teaching autists that fantasy means ossified, bland LoTR rip off. Then... later, and in an unrelated way, women ruined it.
Someone post an actual source, before you do is it porn or a shitty movie? (the answer to this confirms if I need the source or not)
>>219177580Just some like cosplay project. see another pic. it's not porn or anything.sadly
>>219177467Not whites, just Anglos.
>>219176112Kek that show really does look fucking terrible
>Gaming becomes more normgroid focus>Normgroids only like sports game or shooting games>Fantasy diesIt's pretty simple. Look at how popular Grand Theft Auto is. Those games are just about roleplaying as a nigger yet they are insanely popular. A normgroid is incapable of conceptualizing anything other than themselves, so fantasy falls to the wayside.Also blacks and browns have 0 fantasy in their cultures. Closest you can get is religious pseudo-Catholic shit (Brown and Black Christians are actually pagans)
>>219176192mostly is just because you are heterosexual but also for all feminist cry about "unrealistic beauty standards"and shit, the standards and expectations are actually much higher for men then women and we all subconsciously internalized it
>>219177014>>219176349Retarded zoomer takes, probably from faggots born the year WoW was released.>>219177565Trvth nuke.
>>219176061Game of Thrones
>>219176349>>219177014It's not WoW. It's the world. If WoW hadn't existed, something else would have been created that dealt the same damage. You think if WoW wasn't a think we'd all be enjoying the highest level of fantasy right now? No, because the world would be the same more or less.
>>219176597what anon meant was "what is the name of the girl so I can fap to her"
>>219176061Full of tongue in cheek, self deprecating writers that don't take fantasy seriously. They are too cowardly to write something seriously bad, so they'll write inoffensive, joking, quipping garbage that appeals to everyone, which means it appeals to no one in particular.Too many writers are afraid to be made fun of, so they make fun of themselves to almost "beat" any criticism. But if they're not taking it seriously, why should I?
>>219177691Some of the most popular games of the last few years were fantasy though, like Expedition 33 and BG3.
>>219176376Its dogshit
>>219176061It was never alive. There are a couple gems here and there but the rest is legit shit and has been beyond shit since the 80s.
>>219177565That's D&D after it was ruined by Dragonlance.
>>219176511https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ekugPKqFw
>>219176376>Fantasy>Modern clothes>1800s german architecture???
>>219178119Correct. I have like a whole folder of quotes from various authors saying the same shit.
>>219176192because you don't go outside and you haven't seen the multitude of women who look like shit
>>219176192It's the opposite. Men are the visual ones, while women are more attracted to confidence, stability, money, influence, etc. As long as you put a little bit of effort into your appearance, and don't look like a fucking mutant, women are more into that other stuff. It's more important that you be able to string two sentences together about shit that isn't Pokemon.
>>219178509>fantasy = medievalRetard
>>219178625Why do only the best looking men get any real results on tinder though
>>219178886b-But they'll eventually settle for a betabucks provider like me!
The emos dealt Fantasy a nearly fatal blow.
>>219178886The best looking men have the most confidence, stability, money, influence, etc.
we get countless fantasy slop films and shows and books. the fuck are you talking about
>>219176092don't forget the Ts :*)
>>219178221that's not fantasy. It's pop-fiction normalnigger slop
>>219176511
>>219178886I'm not pretending like guys who look like Chris Hemsworth don't have it easier than the rest of us, I'm just saying that not looking like Chris Hemsworth isn't a death sentence. There are way too many ugly motherfuckers running around with wives and offspring for looks to matter THAT much for women.
>>219176095This
>>219178986And looks.You forgot to mention looksYou know That thing The thing that makes the girls swipe right on emThat one
>>219179109Retard
>>219178625Blessed genetics > everything else
I don’t know, but goodness that is one heck of a sharter!
>>219176376>yo bro it's that walking sim anime I was talking about>whoa shut up she's walking forward>wait, she stopped walking!*generic fantasy orchestral windpipes sound in the distance*>..."let's go"Did Kojima direct this slop?
>>219178886Because Tinder is a strictly visual medium. I’m a perfectly average looking dude and I did fine on dating apps. 90% of guys simply don’t know how to advertise themselves properly on the platform.
>>219179151Argh, such a witty rebuttal!Egads, I have fallen into such a deep sorrow May the Lord above find mercy in his heart to relinquish me from such pain
>>219176061>>219176192>>219176511>>219176597>>219179081these fags did a great job at staging. love a girl's exposed back and her ass looks amazing. really tasteful juxtaposition with the hideous dorks in the background.
>>219176192 Men generally will fuck anything that moves for that most part while women have the ability to be more selective due to the amount of men throwing themselves at them. Plus there are tons of ugly women, its just that dudes have no standards.
>>2191761921st of all girls usually dont look good if theyre fat or not wearing makeupmy minds eye tells me that women dont really perceive men's attractiveness the way men perceive women. i do not mean something as trite as "just get money lol" i mean that they view men in the same way you would view a car or a power tool. women don't need things to look pretty. even if it looks crappy, unkempt and busted up, it's still cool and attractive as long as it works well. imo a typical woman largely wants to imagine men as big retarded cavemen that punch deer and go wild when they see the woman in question. that's what gets a woman going. any detraction from this is primarily caused by birth control pills and retardation. furthermore, the whole looksmaxxing vanity epidemic is really annoying women the most because it is fucking up their entire selflless himbo fantasy. they want men to disregard themselves and dive headfirst into either danger or their pus pus
>>219179293Stats don't lie though Either you're lying or better looking than you think you are
>>219176376>Frieren>friert nicht
>>219179389Why do they always go for the best looking men then before anyone else
>>219176142i love how he wears a pacifier
>>219176061>What killed the fantasy genre?troons
>>219176192Nice bait I'll take part but you watch too much porn IRL if you don't think that is a top 10% ass of the whole planet. She is also White and has amazing hair too. Like go outside and try to find a better looking woman now. Right now. The guys are bottom 40% even with muscles. This is probably a case of a hot girl who was a cosplay chick and had a couple of nerdy guy friends from college messing around.
>>219176092>whites, neoliberals and jews
>>219179453The good looking guys compensate for having shit pictures by being good looking. If your average or below, selfies in a gym bathroom or pictures of you holding a fish aren’t a good idea. Make a female account sometime, you’ll see that it’s obvious most guys put zero effort into presenting themselves.
>>219179316>tastefulI bet her ass is super tasteful
>>219177691>Also blacks and browns have 0 fantasy in their culturesyour whole civilization is built on top of the cultures of brown romans and greeks
>>219177691>Brown and Black Christians are actually paganHard cope from one cucked by a foreign ancestral faith.
>>219179781It probably tastes like ass
>>219176061the LOTR movies
>>219179762Doesn't this mean that looksmaxing is a good thing then?
>>219177580>Someone post an actual sourceAlready posted >>219176952https://boingboing.net/2009/06/30/frazetta-meatcard-ch.html
>>219179534i think largely because they can, and because an attractive men is still undoubtedly attractive and therefore preferable to one that isn't. and when they're young and/or retarded, they harbor delusions that every man secretly fits their subconscious fantasy to a T. later they may become disillusioned when it turns out to not be so and then settle down or become forever bitter over it i guess. hence why dating single women over 30 is a minefieldbut desu i think that whole thing is a bit overrepresented, at least here, since i have never really known ANY women who only go for hot types and get bootyblasted when it doesn't work out. most just date very average men and see nothing wrong with it. even the horniest woman i know just hooked up with whoever personally i think the modern society and dating mechanics are not great for men and women finding their mates. i think things like social media, dating apps and just the number of people we get exposed to fries people's (especially women's) brains. i would have discarded my own sentiment as gobbledygook a few years ago but i think the whole short form content phenomenon and proliferated gambling have exposed that human brains are just vulnerable to "hacking" overall.
>>219179989desu it is a difference between showcasing vanity and showcasing competence. if you can't figure out how to take a decent picture, it's more a sign of the latter
>>219176092fippy bippy
>>219179584She's cute in the pics where you can see her face.
>>219179989Yes an autistic incel who has never talked to a woman will get laid immediately if they get jaw implants.
>>219180039Social media and online dating did a number on the younger generations (digital millennials and zoomers). It might be ogre for them.
>>219179989I guess if you broaden the definition of looksmaxing. Taking a well lit photo of yourself playing a sport with your friends to demonstrate you aren’t a shut in autist would be a stretch in my opinion. You gotta think of dating apps like an advertisement you’d see in a magazine. There are plenty of ads for mundane things where the “models” aren’t particularly attractive (on purpose in most cases), but the pictures are well staged and carefully crafted to convey something quickly.
>>219176061How come when a woman is in this penis she looks like a giant penis?
>>219176092FPBP
>>219176061>Bad writing>Female main characters >Bad casting choices>High production costs yet the shows still look cheapTake your pick. Fantasy is a dead genre
>>219176376is this show any good?
>>219180395>How come when a woman is in this penis she looks like a giant penis?Something on your mind, anon?
>>219179081>>219176061now someone post the covers these are inspired by
>>219176112>neither of the 3 are swarthy Doubt
>>219176061Its probably the most expensive genre you can make a movie or show in
>>219180501First season was max comfy. I'm waiting for s2 to finish airing so I can watch it all without interruption.
>>219180523
>>219176061>guy has nice smooth thighshe cute
>>219180601>3d girl has a nicer ass than a literal Frazetta illustrationI am in awe at this level of female power. Big ups to the lucky dorks who got her to hang out with them
>>219176192>Why do girls look good no matterThey don't. You have to be dumb and desperate to think this especially with them in worse shape than ever.>>219178601Maybe he just likes fat worn down heavily prematurely aging women like other fatfags
>>219180695yeah agree. great body and skin. both are nice though
>>219180877Oh sure. Old Frank had a genuine appreciation for human beauty that comes though hard in his work. It's also based that he was ripped, his wife was hot, he made her pose for him... Walking the walk. Mogs Vallejo so hard it's incredible
>>219180601thank you
>>219178886That is the cause. Your real question is "what kind of women use dating apps" and the answer is "the worst".
>>219179989looksmaxxing only works if you have the genes to build upon. otherwise your best bet is looking stupid like pic related.
>>219180501yeah if you like elves and magic
>>219181051That’s just roids.
>>219181051Clav is a deranged retard injecting his body with random crap and smashing his face with a hammer.
>>219177620Anglos created the fantasy genre you stupid mutt
>>219181051Clavicle is good looking though?I don't agree with his methods but he's better looking than most men
>>219180162half of the world is female. there's zero chance you will be alone if your face looks good. jaw surgeries are more important than cardiac surgeries because dying is a more humane choice than to keep living with a disfigured face
>>219179583>Ahuviya HarelHaven't seen this autistic homeless faggot in a coons age
>>219176061>What killed the fantasy genre?The Lord of the Rings films.
>>219180944Vallejo has his strengths. He did demons and dragons and beasties better than Frank
>>219176061That's an amazing ass
>>219176376>Yondah lies the Castle of my Fodda.
>>219176061SJW's and mostly women getting into positions of power in the centers of culture production: book publishers, videogame companies, film studios, tabletop game companies, etc. Women are a tribe and always unite with each other 100% against men as a group, so they (like Jews and Indians) will pass on males for promotions in favor of other women. The only men that get promoted are doormat cucks who don't push back on women attempting to control them in the workplace. Now fantasy as a genre, produced by culture production centers, is created for women and effeminates by women and effeminates. Gaudy colors, interpersonal drama, bickering, snark, disrespect of authority, soulless motivations, backward or even outright evil morality in protagonists, etc. The degenerate, derivative aesthetic and worldbuilding is a consequence of the fundamental reality that the Feminine cannot create. Only the Masculine can. The Feminine can only mimic, mock, and make facsimiles of something that already exists.
>>219176376>knife-eared bitchnoty
>>219178119it's fantasy, it means "not serious"
>>219176095It's the patrician's fetish. Of course my wife wears granny panties 90% of the time and it takes all my willpower to push past that turn off.
>>219185362I already know what some bitch is gonna say>But women create life and give birth!Wrong. Men inseminate the inert egg and create life, women are the recipient of the life-seed and they have no conscious control of the process that follows. Masculine energy is the lifeforce that creates something from the unconscious realm of chaos.
>>219185362>Gaudy colorsMost modern fantasy is dreary grayed out shit.
>>219181528his body is, but his face is 7/10 and nothing will change that.Not even doing meth or breaking his bones
>>219186612He's attractive enough. He could have dated and married a nice girl anytime. I don't see what mind broke him so bad.
What fantasy genre? There's only a handful of decent ones
>>219186672If you have to consciously looksmaxx it's mentally over for you.
>>219185605How is this a problem? Just get your wife panties that you like. Are her ugly panties medically necessary? Just give the right panties dude. Problem solved.
>>219180695>3d girlyou mean heavily photoshopped girl
>>219179929
>>219179081I wish I had friends this autistic.
>>219187125I do. She exclusively wears the ugly ones because they're more comfortable.
>>219187254Have you tried beating her with your shoe?
>>219187254Beauty is pain. Tell her that anon said the pleasure of being desirable to her man should outweigh the discomfort of cute panties. Seriously, she has it easy compared to what some women have to do to feel wanted.
>>219187549Some lady got flack for saying "nothing tastes as good as thin feels" but I think she was right then, when I was a tight teen, and now, when I'm a fat man (it's all the beer)
>>219186496That's all you got from that huh? I can give you a ton of counter examples especially in video games.
>>219188045Show 50 examples from movies and television only.
