I am.
I have so many fucking thoughts about what happened today. I haven’t watched the vod because of class but Jesus Christ.
First off, what the actual fuck. Second off, I genuinely hate how little agency the players have had in what happened. Like, they haven’t been able to win the fights-that’s clear. That’s obvious. But to make the fight so overpowered specifically and deliberately to kill an egg is absolute infuriating as a viewer.
Like, it’s clear to me that the admins knew what was going to happen (there’s no other reason for the eggs to keep returning to the fight) but the players? I don’t think they were made aware of that fact. And to a certain extent that makes sense because they want reactions to be more genuine or whatever. But like… there’s a difference between wanting a reaction and stripping agency from the creators.
I don’t know. Someone will likely have a more in-depth analysis on this but today felt… inescapable in a way that made me uncomfortable-and I haven’t even watched it yet.
(On a separate note, trust the admins and creators to communicate about things. They ultimately know more than we do. Trust the story; trust the process. They’ve done a brilliant job so far.)
