I’m in this comic and I don’t like it.

The new outfit’s cute, though.

I’m a very early Gen Z and I feel like a boomer lol

I do nerd things alone at home or maybe with a friend or two. DnD live shows, people traveling to play/watch e-sports… It’s all so foreign to me. I don’t feel resentment, but shock and disconnection are always present when I read headlines such as these. Like, I wouldn’t dream in a million years to pay money to watch someone else play DnD, but then again, video game streamers exist. I can’t wrap my head around this!

And just to be clear, I’m not bashing the people enjoying this form of content. I’m just expressing my disbelief at the fact that it exists at all. If I didn’t know better, and saw something like this in a movie, I would call it fake and detached from reality. When in fact, I’m the one detached from my generation. Then again, I don’t have any social media and I’m writing my thoughts on Lemmy, so I’m clearly not an example of what my generation looks like.

I was thinking the same thing when looking for those pages yesterday. Even the main sagas are very difficult to follow at this point, if you didn’t read them as they released.

LHoB is somewhat consistent with naming but still has a few annoying outliers, such as Fear, Cliche or the One-shot.

But the Ayzee saga is all over the place and at this point I’m thinking that Mark’s doing it on purpose, with the naming changing constantly (from Grom Factor to Enna to Mama Eda to Fight Coven, and I’m forgetting more) and even super duper important pages such as Having her work cut out for her and A change of pace having their own name, separate from all the others! And that’s not even accounting for all other pages that enrich the lore or explain some things that happen in that story, such as Ori, Cool uncle Gus (+ Insert battle music), So, yeah. And again, these are the names that I remember. I wasn’t able to find the page where it’s revealed that Jay is a Grimwalker, for example, and I’m sure I’m forgetting more.

Oh, and by the way, while I was grabbing those links, I remembered that Ayzee has met the Collector, so here it is. Apparently the Hexsquad has somehow managed to rescue him from the evil!collectors, and he still has François with him.

All this to say: yeah, at this point a spreadsheet with a tag system is mandatory to keep track of everything and look back at specific pages in a reasonable time. Think it would be possible to set one up online as a community effort? I’m busy these days but I’d be more than willing to dedicate some time every day to add a few pages and tag the characters in each. I’m not well versed in this specific topic though, so I don’t know what would be the best option to have a document online easily modifiable by all contributors (and ideally closed to anyone else to avoid trolling).
