Hiiiii.... So I'm genuinely asking this in good faith, but what keeps you (or motivates you IG) to be invested in enstars if the writing decisions either annoy/hurt you? To be clear, I think there's nothing wrong with your opinions and personally agree with a lot of them. I think critique is healthy & important, but at some point I wonder where one should cut their losses y'know? Maybe I just don't understand enstars fans commitment to the series as a relatively new-ish fan 😅? I see a lot of outrage all the time, and it makes me wonder WHY people still like enstars, if that makes sense. I kind of get it when I read old material, but the newer content just makes me feel more apathetic than not ??? So I'm like. Why do people like this series if it upsets them so much?? Is it a case of sunk cost fallacy?? IDK. Sorry if this is rude, I'm genuinely not trying to be 🙇♀️.
there are a lot of things that keep me invested in enstars, most poignantly the characters themselves. every franchise has its share of bad or questionable writing decisions (or what we, as fans, judge as bad as the ones consuming the media), but I believe the good points of it still stand out against the negative ones. it's still an enjoyable game with good art, nice gameplay, fair rotation, and the character building is really good, even if it gets lost sometimes in the story. we also have a lot of other media forms to enjoy the franchise, such as the stages, the shows, the music, the youtube content; despite it all, enstars has created a vast universe story-wise that still gets people invested in it.
most of all, I still wanna see more of the characters I like, some who actually made a big impact in my life in ways that others never did (such as ritsu), so I guess that's my biggest driven force to keep playing, and translating and helping overall? idk if that's enough of a reason for you, but it's what I feel kghfsfhhj
