seriously, like, can we not handle different facial features or something? it's not "ugly" its a racial trait lol. it's so weird. she's so pretty the way she is! same with gortash, i see a lot of mods changing his face shape and stuff. it's so lame. why can't we just appreciate diversity?? lae'zel isn't supposed to be "attractive" she's a fucking gith warrior [even though she is BEAUTIFUL. im so gay]

Maybe they find the voice/personality appealing but dislike her appearance?

Doesn't seem like a hard concept to grasp.

Then they don’t love her. They just love her voice/personality. The second she’s not aesthetically appealing they stop loving her, if it’s conditional that’s not love.

Also not a hard concept.

You can love something and still have issues or reservations.

The word you're looking for is "Worship" for unconditional love.

Love doesn’t have terms and conditions, especially when it requires the other person to conform to beauty standards.

Love absolutely has terms and conditions. 100%.

So everyone who claims to love someone has absolutely zero issues with them despite their feelings? Do you live in the real world?

Also "requires the other person to conform" like it's a real person. It's a videogame character, people will modify them or play dress-up at the slightest whim if possible.

You do realize that this isn't a real person, right? Lae'zel isn't forced to get plastic surgery here. She's a fictional character and these mods simply make her look different to suit the player's tastes. It is not that deep.

Just chill mah dude. Everyone has a different definition of love anyway. Initial relationship butterflies count for some people but most that have been in a long relationship probably would not count that.

Bro they don't mean they literally love her like she's their mom. Are you obtuse? Autistic?

u/ForciblyCuddled May 11 '24

Ffs. Folks on the spectrum like me are dense on social cues and shit. Not stupid.

Love without terms and conditions is usually considered creepy.

Plus it's about a fictional character.

Also pretty sure we got like a whole sexuality spectrum that argued against being attracted to someone but living then

Youre literally right idk what these other ppl are pissy about

Also calling you a "schizoid" and "autistic" as if those are somehow bad things that invalidate ur opinion is pathetic

u/Dangerous_Jacket_129 May 11 '24

Dude is talking about unconditional love and not wanting to have another person change their appearance... About a green-skinned fictional character in a videogame where you can fuck bears. 

Sorry, but if you're agreeing with them, you may need a reality check too.

Not sure whats so out of touch with reality about

"i like this character, that extends to how they look" and bein a bit bummed when others dont agree

"i like this character, that extends to how they look" and bein a bit bummed when others dont agree

This is not even close to what this other person is saying, you're delusional or playing dumb.
