That's the juxtaposition that's being explored in that show, the story of being the only person who knows the true nature of a threat while everyone else is blissfully unaware
And I’m not talking about the nude scenes
Though arguably it's not being explored very well
Ya but that’s unrealistic
Is it
Yes
No
We have cults and knowledge spends
Especially when it comes to common mobs
You say that with confidence that's completely unwarranted
I’d be on that shit like vermintide baby
Everyone is aware of wealth inequality and the growing income disparity, but nobody is taking action. I know how serious a threat that is but everyone is sitting idly by
So at some point I just quit talking about it publically
You can stick your head in the sand all you like
But I know that and you can put your faith in people's general knowledge where the sun don't shine
No people do talk about you just haven’t met them yet
So don't come at me about how it's unrealistic that people are unaware of a threat
It's literally happening every day
Literally
Every day
In the end there's no difference in the outcome
People ignore real facts all the time
So perhaps that's also the case in Goblin Slayer
And perhaps that's a story that's true to life
And perhaps you're disregarding some aspects of the narrative out of a completely unwarranted arrogance
How about that
When people make up what’s true with no evidence things get called into question when they send hunters into those mines to fight goblins the lady giving them the bounty looked like she new what was going to happen
Because obviously people being aware of something means they are taking action, right
It’s not arrogance I just want know why people in the show weren’t doing anything till the end
But the full extent of the threat is never discussed, or hardly ever, or only by a select crowd
She didn’t
So that's my take on that
And I think you're overly callous by disregarding the potential for human inaction and human ignorance as a reality
People aren’t that stupid if that’s a job and they go out to fight those mobs
They would have research
It has nothing to do with being stupid
It's a critical flaw in human behavior
Ok fine then ignorant
But still curiosity in the unknown exists and if someone did research on the goblins they would know the true perils
Anyways wanna talk about anything else?
