I don't mean to hate or whatever, but magical, animated, meant-for-VERY-young-audience-preferably-girls-but-of-course-not-limited-to, miniature horses known as "ponies" shouldn't have any relation to an epic, adult-oriented, deep, immersive, well-developed, violent, serious, third-person, RPG such as Mass Effect. I mean I guess the only REAL relation would be the Space Magic at the end of ME3 but well, let's not count that. This comment will probably get deleted but this thread peaked my interest because I'm trying to write an essay and I can't concentrate and I never understood what the whole "brony" thing was about. But this thread has taught me nothing... ALAS! My confusion continues.
Can you elaborate on that? I'm honestly curious.
As for bronies.... it's used to label males who enjoy the show, that's all there is to it. AFAIR it was born out of "Bro" (to say male) and "Pony", thus brony.
Ok so don't hate me for this, but my little pony to me, seems just so... well, childish. I mean I've talked to bronies before and they say they are legitimately interested in the plot, but I just don't see how its possible. I mean I guess its just cause I don't understand, but I feel like the show doesn't, and shouldn't have anything that relates to adults. Sure I watch cartoons and such, but I think of it differently. Take Adventure Time for example, the show is wierd as ****, and has this subtle, adult-humor. Kids who watch it aren't old enough to understand, but teenagers and adults can chuckle at that show and say "HAHA! They did not just say "I want you inside me" (That seriously happens in an episode). And as for other kids shows I watch from time to time, are purely because they were what I grew up with, and I enjoy the sense of nostalgia. Anyway, point being, isn't mlp reletively new? If so, then adults wouldn't get any sense of nostalgia and I'm not entirely sure if there is subtle humor in that show or not, but I just can't see how it relates to adults, let alone adult-oriented games like Mass Effect, Skyrim, Halo, Borderlands, Assassin's Creed, etc. (All of which are my favorite games, and all of which I've seen a myriad of mlp fan art for.) (Did any of that make sense? Probably just to me huh?)
