![Gamers are literally the worst [CW: homophobia, weird fantasy phrenology]](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/3c4786f2-1df9-4418-a23a-23811c86ef96.jpeg){kind=link}
Why is it whenever I try to find any info out about this game I find posts full of edgy “haha I killed that, are U mad?” assholes and borderline “race realists”?
Ffs I just wanted to find a post that would help me avoid killing Kobolds and the one posts I find asking the question is full of edgelords bragging about how they love to kill “vermin” races and gays.
This is what you get when you make a fantasy world were certain races are born evil, it attracts all the racist freaks that want to live out their genocide fantasies.
It’s killing my fun for this game.
Idk. Goblin slayer is one of the most heinous with it. The goblins only procreate byremoved humans. The very first episode they show aremoved scene. They always bring a cute looking girl for this exact purpose. Their only motivation isremoved, pillage, burn. Even the apostles in berserk have some character like the Count saving his daughter and sending himself to hell to do that. Goblin slayer? Shit they went out of their way to show what happens when you spare a goblin. They showed that child killing the person that spared him and it growing into a goblin king,
Its every fascists wet dream. It gets so bad it has to be satire of some sort not to side eye this show
Folding ideas satirized this concept in a video made before goblin slayer became an actual thing(Found the right video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxV8gAGmbtk
It’s like some weird anti-satire, where the satire already existed and people decided to make the unironic version of the satire.
Ahhhh shit
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
There is a plot element where the goblins are an expropriated diaspora used as slaves and that is where the negative externalities come from. This is at odds with the fact that the goblins are written to be like chimpanzees. A better industry could have made an intresting story about class conflict out of this. However the money is from leaning into the latent incoherrent fash vibes
That… That could have made an even more interesting story. Instead they behave like dark eldar. If you know dark eldar welp…
