While i agree mostly with your thought about this, i have to point out that you have a quite unusual way of organising them. This makes it a bit of hard to preprocess them and to forecast of what you want to say. And this makes the creation of the loop for creating the context a bit of hard. It can be simply that i'm not used to such a thought expression process, but if you would organise your expression in a simpler way before puting them to "paper" that would be very helpful and then i didn't have to read your post twice to understand them. Naturally it seems that we have both a unusual way of organising our thoughts, because people complain also about the fact that it is difficult to understand my posts, but it proves that this is not necessary the elaborated language that makes it difficult, because 4too uses restricted code and still the same applies to him. Perhaps if i read more of your posts i will get more used to your "way" of expression and with this training i will need only one read through for your posts.I think he's simply trying (too hard and with an eloquence he cannot into) to tell you that they are going for an aesthetic that is more 'figurative' than 'realistic', a representation relying more on the 'thematic' rather than the 'pragmatic'/'gritty'.
Which makes sense. Less of a budget and with an excuse on top ("but we told you"), more of a freedom to go their way
What i find disconcerting is his depiction of naivete as he puts it versus more recent representations. It is the wrong forum to analyse the didactic element of fantasy/fairy tales and how it reinforced conservative notions of false dualities, but i think it's safe to say that what he finds as charming and blissfully naive entails a misconception or two..or a lack of maturity..or both even. Elements i doubt will escape his work. To be seen. Again on the disconcerting is the paradox of his using a very strong example of the above as a case for stepping away from it (even if only aesthetically), only to move on to reinforce the very notion it represents, lol, it being the naivete/charm underlying it...
I know i can't expect tech nerds to be knowledgeable in anything other than their line of work, that would be asking for constant disappointments; But i can expect them not to be retards.
For what is worth, Darkzone, your posts are much more congenial to read than Aenra's but I think he just doesn't have a firm grip on English to top his difficulties in expressing his outside the norm thoughts. And yes, reading more Aenra helps to try and understand what he's reaching at, and I propose that it pays off. For instance, here I agree with him on the criticism of the inability/naivete to express the reasons for implementing the whole figurative versus realistic aesthetic that our dear developer is trying to argue. I'm open to discussing the didatic element of fantasy/fairy tales on a appropriate thread in the Library, I'll take the standpoint of conservative notion of true dualities fpr fun. I may not be very knowledgeable in this stuff which is outside my line of work, but I'm not a retard either.
4too is a poet. We are blessed when he posts.
