lmao a dnd campaign takes WAAAAAY more time and effort than a highschool basketball team, and you objectively cannot play a game that requires two teams by yourself. you can practice it, but you aren't actually playing. hman is 100% correct here lmao

[@Cassxowary]

Jane was named by her mom who became a vegetable trying to rescue her, remember (:

[@Pernicion]

Bottom right guy is correct... you cannot play basketball by yourself. Just because you have a basketball, doesn't mean you're playing basketball. Hell, I've played soccer with a basketball... I've also played basketball with a soccer ball. The ball is not what determines if you're playing a sport... it's whether you're actually playing the sport. Basketball, requires an opposition. 1v1, 5v5, doesn't matter... but you need someone else to play against. The guys clowning on him, should be embarrassed. They come across really poorly here, laughing and going on... Smugness is really only tolerable from people with correct positions.

btw they started filming this season in febuary of 2020, most the kids now are 17 through 20 so when this was filmed they were like 16-18 which explains why they still looked like kids cuz they were lmao

[@Frieswithnoketchup]

in my personal opinion i preferred the monsters in the other seasons because they were like eldritch lovecraftian beast, intelligent in a monstrous way being driven by pure instinct while this one is more human, i just think the idea of a giant blob of random flesh and teeth being intelligent and powerful in a animalistic beast way is more terrifying than a humanoid-looking intelligent calculated creature

[@JDVN7]

The D&D vs BB debate can be summed up to: Playing a game that demands physical training BUT the basics and rules of the game have already been set up vs Making/creating a game and then playing that game that considers and suits each individual character of the players... repetition vs creation/physical labor vs mental labor. IMO, D&D has a slight edge in terms of time and effort put into it; unless the player in the BB is not physically fit.

[@TheGoldenAlchemist86]

The basketball/DnD discourse is the best part of the video. I have tears in my eyes!!!

37:06 second hand embarrassment this was 💀😭

[@vixevinweria8400]

You're talking about high school basketball like it's the NBA or something. I can't speak for direct experience with high school basketball but when I was in foster care one of the other kids had 1 hour of middle school football practice twice a week and he competed at the same level as all the other kids on his team. Assuming that high school has 1-2 hours every weekday that's still not a lot. Yes it's possible for some people to put together a decent session of D&D in less time than that just like it's possible for some people to be good at basketball with much less effort.

[@keywill1728]

No high basketball practices for 2 hours mon-sat. And all the good players practices on their on Sunday. So yeah to be good at basketball it’s really a 7 days a week sport

[@vixevinweria8400]

@@keywill1728 So I was off by 4 hours of practice. So you got me curious enough to google it. The average for high school athletes is 10-12 hours per week but it said basketball averaged 6 hours per week, and gymnastics is 24 hours per week.

I don't really think you can compare basketball to D&D lol, they're both completely different worlds. My problem comes into: they've always had party mentality. Support each other, be there for each other. This was hella important to Lucas and they just didn't care...a D&D session can be moved...as an avid D&D player and DM...it sucks, but it can be moved. A pre-scheduled Basketball championship game cannot.

[@SortaStupid]

What do you mean? Eddie is our favorite character of the season lol

[@KeithEngel]

I am against what many fans think and main theory is about Will being gay and having a crush on Mike. I think what we see taking place through out this season and the Duffer brothers are leaving certain ambiguity with it to play into the fan theories as well, is that Will is actually in love with Eleven also and is unsure how to deal with all of that, if you pay enough attention to his scenes with Eleven he shows great concern for her all the time. It's similar to what we see is taking place with Jonathan and Nancy through out this season them being apart and Eleven and Mike have been apart while Will has been there with Eleven. His anxiousness and nervousness and sadness has everything to do with not knowing how to deal with being in love with his best friends girl, nothing to do I feel with romantic feelings for Mike. One of the main reasons I'm against the gay theory is also lies in the Duffer brothers setting things about him being teased for it and his own father thinking this that it would be fly in the face of what one of the central themes is of the show, highlighting misunderstood people or strange people from normal society as it were and even though being gay is one of these matters. I think that having Will actually be gay is counter intuitive to see Will over come the stigma that the bullying and father had of him as being queer, being weak, or being a pussy just because he is a sensitive kid or unusual or not masculine in the way that is thought to be normal. I really hope they don't go down the route of making him gay honestly because it's playing into a stereotype then and it what bullies and others were saying about him which I think is not a fair way to explore being different as well.

@@cameradude478 Yeah only 2 days ago, I wrote this as a prior a comment and I hate when shit gets revealed in Articles or Interviews, I generally avoid this shit for spoiler purposes. Also the above comes from how certain scenes were shot with Will and how he was reacting to Eleven. There was an ambiguity there that unfortunately has been ruined now since all of this was revealed via an interview and an article, hence spoiled, instead of allowing the show to reveal whatever the case may have been. Regardless I see the Duffer Brothers went the route I dislike the most that men who are sensitive, not "masculine", are apparently gay. This coming from someone who got teased the same as Will but isn't gay, so I was hoping the Duffer brothers would have gone in the opposite direction of proving the Father Wrong as well as the bullies, instead they are going in the stereo typical direction to fulfill the check marks that most modern Western TV have as a checklist to include in their shows. Thankfully unlike most trash agenda based TV shows, the story, the characters, are better than the agenda driven drivel that encapsulates most modern TV in the West. It's why I prefer Anime anymore as my main form of entertainment.
