I have a theory that the more lore a franchise has, the more of an autistic fanbase it has. I made a graphic about it. (lemmy.ml)

In Elder Scrolls, those books are already built into the games.

[-] Shurimal@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Ooh, the lore in Elder Scrolls goes way deep. I mean, there are more exotic concepts most know which are not really discussed in games like Lunar Lattice, Godhead and CHIM, but if you dig deeper, you're in for a real ride. Most of it goes way over my head, but concepts like time travel and AI from the future, Amaranth, and lastly, the Elder Scroll themselves about which Septimus Signus made simplified, but not inaccurate, in-game comments, are much discussed topics among the deep lore fandom. Plus all the more mundane stuff behind the scenes--dreughs, ayleids, Akavir and it's many inhabitants, sloads, Hist and their origin (discussed in Infernal City/Lord of Souls, but more questions raised than answers given. Hint: the Sleeping Tree is related to Hist and the rumor Ysolda dismisses as "nonsense" is literally true.) etc.

You could write a heavy tome about the history and deeds of the Dunmer people alone, let alone all the other events that happen(ed) in that universe.

This is X-Philes erasure, and I won't stand for it.

My Little Pony FTW 🙌

Just did an 8 hour shift playing Factorio instead of working. Should get my self checked out.

[-] HeavenAndHell@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Sonic should be way, way higher.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I feel like AT should be higher up. I've seen some crazy serious discussions about characters who say "what the bjork" 4 times an episode.

[-] Dohnakun@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

So why has Factorio less lore and more autists?

Star Trek has a large autistic fanbase? I mean I know we're a bunch of nerds but...

D&D is not because of the Lore its because of crunching numbers!!! (my autistic friend who lives P&P in General and also love to optimize his Charakters)

As an IDW comics enjoyer, I love Sonic the Hedgehog being on this graph.

That is all.

[-] donslaught@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Anyone else feel like this is just a map of holes to fall into? I'm looking forward to that Kirby one...

[-] worfamerryman@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

I was certain this was going to be about hockey. Kind of disappointed actually...

[-] Ignacio@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I'm in this picture, and I don't like it.

[-] gonzo0815@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Cracktorio. I'll never touch that again.

You put call of duty on the wrong side
