Other Random question of the day

[Onmyoji]

Content creators are just a limited set of people, while fans worldwide are much more numerous than creators. So it's not surprising some of them may come up with better ideas then the creators. Also, fans usually don't have time constraints having to release something within a fixed time frame and have more freedom.

 

[Idea]

Absolutely agreed with what Onmyoji said. I would add as well, ok that freedom point, that often professionals are constrained by several other constraints, such as the need to make a profit, certain laws that might apply to more large scale productions, and the needs of trying to appeal to a much broader market, among other things.

In addition to this:
> Companies are often producing or adapting the content first, meaning fan productions get the benefit of seeing what worked and what didn’t before making their own thing.
> Fan-made content is held to a lower standard to begin with, though they also have less resources to begin with, but improving things get progressively harder as you go along.


With that being said, it should also be noted that companies often have different goals than quality in production - in fact I’d say quality is too unquantifiable to be anything more than a secondary or even tertiary objective. Profit is the obvious biggest motive, but there are other things that can be noticed, such as for instance the capture of a pre-built audience. Many movies are actively made worse by trying to build sequels into themselves, and others are basenjis because someone has a good idea or passion, but only because a property happens to be popular enough for them to cash in on.

now, the kicker is when fan-made content is free AND better than the original work. *coughs* skyrim *coughs*

Skill/talent isn't directly related to funding/popularity. It was always this way.

I fucking LOVED the Ren and Stimpy Show. I still have a pin I wear on my battle vest of them. O also had the video game on the Sega Genesis. Looking back on it, is like looking back on most things from my childhood. Its the nostalgia that makes it great. But if K were to dissect it from an unbiased perspective, it wouldn't have the same charm at all.

 

[Onmyoji]

I've never heard of that show.

I... don't know who you're talking about. I think I might have notion of Ed Sheerin, but I can't readily think of who he is. the name just sound familiar. But the other guy I haven't ever heard of for sure.

Is it true that a lifetime of abuse can lead to people becoming psychopaths?

i mean, I'm sure it's happened. but not a guarantee.

 

[Rin okumura]

I mean it can considering abuse can cause truama but not everyone develops it abuse is also linked to antisocial personality disorder and sociopathy not just psychopathy so abuse actually causes three different behavioural disorders but it's not always a major gurantee that a person will develop these things.
