>>78506554>Do you really want to know everything about World of Warcraft lore?Yes because it's an RPG and I'm not playing a MMO to be a minmaxing autist.
>Is the world building in Everquest quest dialog for fetch quests really comparable to The Silmarillion?You don't know what you're even trying to say with this analogy. EQ's lore is scattershot and piecemeal, half of the fun is taking the fragments and putting them together. It's an adventure on top of the game. The Sneedmarillion is one book, sure it itself is complex and multi-layered but so is a fucking D&D rulebook. The medium is the message and we absorb information from lore dumps in an audiovisual medium differently from a textual one.
>This lore is also junk, it doesn't serve much of a purpose, and it probably undermines and pigeonholes them more than helps them create fun and interesting content.Outside of the very first HoloMYTH collab I disagree. Even Council's inaugural meeting was a fun way to break the ice while being tangentially in-character. The problem is people are too attached to aesthetics and the idol journey, so even if a character arc did occur within the context of a gen it wouldn't matter because people only care about superficial shit.
>Nobody is watching Advent and Justice to find out if they catch themThis line of thinking is so dumb, what if they play a cops and robbers game or anything PvP? Boom, your'e proven wrong, it's in-line with lore, end of discussion. We don't need some gay shonen anime fight or a play done entirely in vrchat, but heaven fucking forbid there's more than skits and songs to tell us more about these girls.
Hell, I'd take a LN for Hololive at this point, even if it's just webnovel trash. It's still cool and calling it 'junk' doesn't change that this whole medium is 'junk' and you're probably an ironic weeb anyways.
