!touhou is a theoretically a game, but it's actually a media universe, and this universe is what most fans are there for. In a sense, Touhou has killed off its author, and the fandom could continue regardless of his existence at this point. Regardless, this is a gaming thread, so please discuss the Touhou games, including the fangames. See the pinned comment below for voting on the official bullet heck games.

Dark Souls 1. This is the first playthrough where I've met Kaathe, destroyed the Guinevere illusion, etc. My pyromancer isn't satisfied with the easy answers from Frampt and co, so she's delving deeper into the hidden lore of her world. :marseydetective:

This optional layer of the story adds a lot to the game, but I think that people who take Kaathe's statements at face value should be humanely euthanized. The game shows us exactly what "Dark" looks like. The Abyss grows to destroy everything, with the remaining once-human creatures killing each other over dwindling scraps of soul. And the Abyss is Kaathe's home base. If this is the "age of humanity," Gwyn was right to fear it, and was selfless in sacrificing himself.

People figure out the human/dark connection and conclude that it must mean darkness is good, when the much more obvious, interesting, and thematically appropriate conclusion is that humanity is fundamentally destructive. :marseyunabomber:

In real life, the "Age of Dark"/"Age of Man" is unchecked ecological destruction, catastrophic climate change, nuclear holocaust, gray goo AI apocalypse, or even just the slow death of meaning. It's a mixture of things that are happening now, and things that could happen if humanity continues with unchecked dominance over nature, unconstrained by our ancient faiths. Sure we may be destroying our world, but at least we cast off all those phony gods' blessings, right? :marseyfedoratip:

This kind of reminds me of how many people regard Satan as a hero in Paradise Lost, simply because he adopts rhetoric about liberty that we humans naturally find relatable. Satan flatters the reader's sensibilities, but when you look past the rhetoric and see what he actually wants, he simply is trying to destroy humanity to spite God. He is our enemy. :marseydevil:

Do not listen to some straggy snake's grand narrative without figuring out who he is and what he's trying to do. He will be happy when the "Age of Dark" begins. You won't. :marseysnek:

!g*mers


Yes the later games show the fading of fire recurs forever, and that natural rebirth from Dark is possible, but that requires meta knowledge and I am interpreting DS1

I like how these r-slurred cute twinks think this while the world has become wealthier, more environmentally safe (in first world countries), and less violent over the past few centuries. How clueless can a neighbor get, !neolibs?

I used to think the economy was bad because nobody can afford to buy a home, but then one of you guys pointed out that the GDP number went up. :marseywholesome:

But whether or not you agree with the take in real life, I think my interpretation reflects what the game is saying

There are plenty of extremely affordable homes in Detroit, actually! You might have to kill the junkie(s) living in it, though.

Some people are able to display their intelligence by going on at length on a subject and never actually saying anything. This ability is most common in trades such as politics, public relations, and law. You have impressed me by being able to best them all, while still coming off as an absolute idiot.

Yeah except Gwyn/Frampt is actually the real Satan allegory in Dark Souls trying to trick you into doing their bidding. Don't fall for their lies.
