well, “wash your balls” isn’t a bad advice. and “I’m having a breakdown” is just a state of being

Pretty sure that guy went to prison for math related activities.

I need to sleep

Google is an American compamy, please understand that they can’t fathom speaking multiple languages

only billions? just another year in china then.

damn OP has issues

if you don’t have a normal BMI it’s unhealthy. that overweight causes health problems is scientifically proven

>I want my partner to be unhealty

what causes this mental illness?

yeah it’s better to live in north korea were you starve to death before you get a chance to commit suicide

I don’t speak burger

having big breasts because you’re fat is the same thing as having a fast car because you drove off a cliff

true

north korea also claims to be democratic, that doesn’t mean it’s true

that’s just skin deep, and that’s never been a factor turning me away from media. They can be mixed even if cultures are distinct.

yes, but I think it’s the most obvious and consistant problem for most shows. another one for example is in the case of WoT the lack of architectural styles in different culutres.

But that feels like a symptom of deeper problems

yeah I agree

of course south korea has problems as well, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. but I think one can objectively state that the north doesn’t work, no matter which metric you choose to measure its “success” with. the contrast between those countries is too stark

Yes, you can. That is literally the idea.

fair enough. but that’s most of the time not compatible with “it has to be believable and fleshed out”. you can add PoC, but they should have their own destinct cultures, like GoT did with the Dorne or the magical city in Essos; or the Ophiri in Witcher 3. the people of Dorne were all a homogenous group of people, as is to be expected in a medieval setting where traveling is hard, the same with the Ophiri. if half of the population of Dorne was white, it’d be odd.

It just felt… boring, and the world wasn’t interesting.

like I said, that’s because of the worldbuiling, every group of people looked the same (except for the costumes, which were pretty bad), every architectural style looked the same, there were no distinct culural differences. the whole world is one homogenous blob. just compare it to GoT

ATLA is another great example of diversity done right. every faction has their own unique identifiers, which make sense from a geographical point of view

The reason for a mix of ‘PoC’ is whatever one makes.

yes, diversity has to be done right, like in GoT or ATLA. just throwing a bunch of PoC into a random setting and calling it a day doesn’t cut it, but that’s exactly what is done most of the time and if you critisize it, you’re racist

I’ll eventually play KCD2 if I find the time

only north korea isn’t working (but it’s not because of the communism ofc, it’s… something completely else, okay? and it isn’t teh rEaL cOmMuNiSm™ anyways, because that would’ve definitely worked)

From what I’ve seen, settings are either fantasy/fiction

you can’t put everything you want into a setting just because it’s fantasy/fictional. you wouldn’t want a BMW in your medieval setting just because it’s fantasy, it’s the same with an overrepresentation of PoC.

or they handle the local mix of ethnicities pretty well.

that’s almost never the case. I don’t know about KCD2, but Witcher 3 did a good job. in the wheel of time (the show) for example, every “culture” looks the same and the worldbuilding is not believable, and that’s the case for most modern media

so he openly stated that he doesn’t agree with the statement that “no one is above the law” in an attempt to distract the people from him raping children?

well, romans were advanced in technology etc compared to the rest of europe, just like the europeans were compared to africa

I agree, and there are other historical inaccuracies as well, which no one seems to talk about, for example how they are overproportionally colored/PoC. one could suspect hypocrisy
