okay i meant to make this post forever ago but my personal opinion on why so many people were so dissatisfied with lightfalll (disclaimer: i am not one of these people, i love lightfall SO much), is that lightfall was kind of subjected to a really aggressive marketing campaign.
like, stick with me here, i feel like almost all the lightfall release content (the trailers especially) were so focused on battling the witness, how this battle has been centuries in the making and this is the Second Collapse Finally Finding Us, only for there to be,,, no real resolution. the end was left on such a severe cliffhanger, but not only that, there was NO battle with the witness. the witness didn't even seem to be having a hard time at all with what we WERE throwing at it.
and for narrative reasons *i* am obsessed with this ending; in terms of storytelling i adore practically every creative decision that was made in lightfall, but i think the reason that so many people were so upset about it is because lightfall had such intense marketing and was rooted in the implication that this was the End of Days, only for us to get almost no closure, and instead so many more questions.
(there's also something to be said, i think, about the fact that the people who ARE most upset about this are like, the youtube gamer dudebros who's content is very very often rooted in the aggressive, violence-and-warfare, pvp-centric, no-interest-in-lore approach to destiny, and that the people i've seen primarily ENJOYING the narrative decisions (or at least being understanding about it) are the artists and writers and loremasters of the fandom, but i'm not quite sure,,, how to expand on that point.)

Let me explain why Jojo Rabbit means a lot to me.
They made the film at a time when everyone wanted to be a Nazi again. That's what Taika said. It was a good reminder for us all.
I wrote a book in 2018 with the same intention in mind. It's about a weird Hungarian neopagan guy who's completely misunderstood and is taken for a neo-Nazi.
I think that says it all.

Important Request!
Hello reichblr, Beatrice here. I have a huge request to make: I am currently searching for a person whom is willing to become the official artist for my upcoming WWII themed book called Burgundia. I can share more details in DMs about the plot and what the full story is about.
I would love to have someone whom would think of doing the illustrations for the characters and the book cover(s)! Of course, I would pay them for it, but this is something we can discuss more together.
For more details please contact me here or on Discord: bea.a
Thank you for your time. Please, share this! 🤍
