#but it does kinda undermine the responsibility of the egg parents and the consequences of egg death as a whole

ok with juanaflippa fucking dying again and tilín dying i am,, less interested in qsmp, possibly by a significant amount.
i understand that the eggs were intended to be temporary but i just cant be invested anymore because i can't make myself hope for a happy ending anymore and the constant repeated tragedy is boring and unsatisfying because it replaces so many potential interesting diffrent arcs with the same oh everyone is sad now because their egg died and any hope is crushes
like the arcs dont even have to have a happy ending (tho i personally prefer them a bit) as long as they fucking exist! like slime's fucking eggxile means less cuz theres no longer the tension between will he get better and save his daughters best friend so they can be a happy family or will he keep making everything worse accidentally. because there's no happy family hope anymore so the loss of that hope doesnt hurt as much
this point is honestly mostly just a preference thing but i was so looking forward to some lighthearted (with angsty undertones) couples therapy arc with slime+mariana and a custody battle arc over tilín to contrast the heavy angst but now there's mo way in hell the therapy arc is happening (and luzu's shit trying to bring back tilín actually seems really cool so i am being a bit mean lumping them together) and it all seems to be heavy heavy sadness. variety is important!
i really want to be invested in all of this but if its not gonna be silly goofy happy and it's not going to bee satisfying what's the point?
angst is cool angst is fun! but it cant be all that, and having it all angst makes the angst less angsty
juannaflippa coming back wrong from hell and the trauma she seems to have experienced down there is never going to be explored, it's never gonna be more than an oh that sucks too footnote, cuz she just immediately fucking died
im probably overreacting to this and they don't have the luxury to plan everything out in advance perfectly cuz of the nature of the challenges and stuff and cuz rolling with and expanding on unexpected stuff is a huge part of the charm, but im just afraid things will just keep going worse and worse and there'll never be a break or fun cuz the intense angsty drama is what gets the most attention and it is their livelihoods so they do have a very strong incentive to go after it even if it (in my opinion ) reduces the overall quality of the experience
#qsmp#vent#minor vent#if someone actually does see this plz reassure me or something#i want to like this#i want to hope i really do#but i cannot think of a single way juanaflippa's arc ends nicely#if she comes back via trial that's repetitive and boring#if she comes back through eggxile or luzu's shenanigans with tilín that would be great#but it does kinda undermine the responsibility of the egg parents and the consequences of egg death as a whole#i mean its still my preferred outcome but i struggle to see how it wouldnt make it seem like the egg life system is pointless#something drastic and an extreme consequence would have to happen#i cant think of a satisfying one but it is possible#if she doesnt come back then theres no point to any of the trial or developing relationship between slime/mariana#and no point to slime trying to be a better parent#we already did the slime and mariana start to get along while trying to be better parents then death#why are we doing it again#the arc had a happy ending and its time to move onto a different one#i thot it was gonna be couples therapy but eggxile works fine too#mariana stepping up to be a (practically) single parent#slime trying as hard as he can to fix what was his mistake this time and make it up to everyone#thats new thats fancy that's different!!#but now we're back to before#makes it feel like there was no point to it ending in the first place#shit this turned into ankther rant#oh well#imma go eat some fruit :]#qsmp spoilers#spoilers#forgot to tag spoilers at first i am so sorry
