i am glad that some ppl can find the final disc confrontation as a solid ending to the dsmp, at least for tommy and tubbo, but i can't.

to me it isn't a satisfying ending, sending dream away to prison with so many loose threads and empty promises.

i think there's genuinely good stuff that would come from events thereafter for their characters as well, and i don't think revivebur/cwilbur is as bad as some people think he is. i think the problem is genuinely the timeframe everything happened in and how because of that it made things happen that wouldn't have or things that should've didn't happen.

i think, especially direct post revival, revivebur was a great character and i think the potential between him and ranboo could've been great, and the foundations they laid for their characters to learn something from each other was very very well done and good, it just never came to fruition, and wilbur had to write a book to catch us up on things no one else would do.

i think that some of the closure tommy had begun to get, such as slowly opening up to people like quackity or wilbur or his friends, or doing things he loved again was a very good thing for him.

i think that even some of the tragedies post disc finale were immensely interesting, like our glimpse into limbo and everything that would happen between sam and tommy's relationship, etc.

genuinely i think there were good things, good plans, and it all worked out when they worked together to do them. even the lore over the last few days, i think, although not ideal and clearly rushed, still has very good elements to them and because they were communicated through and talked out, it shows.

i just wished this all happened like, 6 months ago. i wish the finale for wilbur and tommy would've happened back in spring or summer or even earlier, if these 3+ month gaps in between streams didn't happen, because i think that's what really killed it. the missteps in writing and flaws wouldn't be as obvious if things had continued to happen consecutively. i think there are lots of problems with the lore and things that have happened over the last few months but i genuinely think it's not the writing that is the problem but the timing. it's like if you had a tv show season that was supposed to run for 20 episodes but they only aired maybe 5 a year. you forget what happened last time, the details, you've lost the hype and excitement, or you've analyzed the last bit of content so much that your expectations will simply never be met.

i, unfortunately, don't find the final disc confrontation as an easy fall back. i can't just pretend that that was the ending, because to me, it doesn't conclude it well narratively. in the grand scheme of things it wasn't as huge a win for tommy and tubbo, not after all they went through. dream didn't die he went to prison. there were still people around that hated them. he lived under the pretense that wilbur would've been revived, and if it would've just ended there would've been so much that they never got to talk through that they eventually did.

im glad some people can do that, but i cant. and i dont know how the finale for tommy and tubbo's characters will go tomorrow, i've only been watching clips and reading recaps and once they're available, i've been skipping through vods.

i don't know how much hope i have for tomorrow. tommy once said he wanted us to have a good ending. by the way it looks it looks more like they're setting up a promo for dsmp s2 and i hope to god it's not that. i hope something happens. i hope that something, anything lets tommy not die tomorrow.

regardless of how it does end, i'm glad it's over, and i hope that they can do new, brighter things in the future. i hope they make new smps or bring back other ones. i hope people stop hounding their chats about the dream smp and lore and let them play minecraft without mentioning it. i hope they can play other games, bring back old series, play with more people they havent much, god fuck anything please.

i hope that what they do next they can view as having fun, and not something they do out of obligation or for job reasons.

i hope they can have fun after the dream smp and that we get content that they want to show us, and that they enjoy creating with as much passion they did 2 years ago.

opinions from someone six months behind on dsmp lore

im so fuckin salty mate i just rewatched like 3 of tommy's vods and as 0 of you know i am a tommy apologist.

first: all this is lighthearted except about c!sam i fuckin hate that guy like genuinely loathe him (sorry not sorry, as i said im a tommy apologist). from here on out unless i specify otherwise these are all talking about the characters. im not here for discourse or anything just here to have a good time lmao

second: FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM FUCK SAM see i haven't been Keeping Up With The SMP so i just thought sam was a little bit of a dick trappin techno in prison because techno was the only POV i'd watched at that point bc i am a cc!TECHNOBLADE ORIGINAL (i am also a technoblade apologist but i never took any side on the betrayal because i didn't know anything about it. no my stance is not changing yes i can be an apologist for both characters) but that's besides the point, i knew sam and quackity were working together and mmmm i hated quackity almost as much as i hate dream but holy shit. holy shit. rewatching tommy's vods has given me a whole new perspective.

new perspective number 1: FUCK SAM FUCK SAM

NP #2: MAYBE QUACKITY WAS RIGHT, YOU KNOW. WHICH IS KINDA CONFLICTING BECAUSE FUCK SAM RIGHT??? BUT ALSO MAYBE QUACKITY WAS RIGHT. SIMPLY FUCK DREAM TO HELL AND BACK FUCK HIM TO HELL AND BACK I WILL FUCKING E N D H I M.

np #3: i already knew this but it's only been cemented that tommy can do no wrong.

np #4: i am a dsmp OG as well. i fell off around november/december/whenever ghostbur arrived. i had ghostbur for five minutes and i liked him but i wasn't really sure of him because i didn't know what purpose he would serve for the narrative. however, rewatching tommy's vods, i am so mad. i am so mad. I have never hated a character more than i have hated Dream because he got rid of my SWEET FUCKER GHOSTBUR. NO. IT'S NOT TOMMY'S FAULT. IT'S FUCKING SAM'S FAULT. HE LITERALLY SAID "I LET YOU DIE IN THERE." THE ENTIRE REASON GHOSTBUR IS GONE IS BECAUSE SAM LET TOMMY DIE SO DREAM KNEW IT WORKED. source: trust me bro im 1000iq

np #5: i had ghostbur for a day and a half and something happened to him. something fucking happened to him. SOMETHING FUCKING HAPPENED TO GHOSTBUR IM GONNA RIOT IN THE FUCKING STREETS--

np #6: ok this is actual criticism but revivebur doesn't feel in character. i don't know much past that first long stream with him and tommy going around everywhere but he feels arbitrarily changed and his knowledge and motivations and the things he says don't coincide. it really doesn't make sense. i do not understand his character. it's very clear that he's buttering everyone up to do some major thing (what in the fuck is the project) but also ?????why.

please talk to me in the replies i am lonely it is 2am.

#c!sam critical #c!dream critical #revivebur critical #is that a tag? i should specify that i mean im critical of his narrative purpose on an analysis level #c!wilbur can't do anything wrong ofc he's just a hurt soft boy in need of some hugs /lh #tommy apologist #im a technoblade apologist because minor terrorism is an excusable offense #especially when you're only terrorisming like three people and a bag of chips KJDHGLKJSHDLKGJHGD #however cc!sam lives up to his name of awesamdude.#his acting bro..... yum #all this does not make sense #that's the point tho #however i have many opinions and all of them are right
