Factorio autistic hyperfocus gang represent

[–] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 31 points 1 year ago

Can't.

Too busy.

Not enough iron.

The factory must grow.

[–] rms1990@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Holy shit am I am autistic? I fucking love factorio.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Maybe. Maybe not. Factorio really tends to scratch the constant-stimulation dopamine button that makes autistic people quite happy and get into hyperfocus, so it's one of those really really close venn diagrams...

[–] BearJCC@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

Hey, some of us are ADD too!

[–] SternburgExport@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Simple as

This plot does not show a correlation, it's just a cluster.

Avatar The Last Airbender has the same amount of lore as Star Trek? How are we measuring this?

[–] ag_roberston_author 15 points 1 year ago

By randomly positioning logos on a chart.

[–] jabib 5 points 1 year ago

Standard lore units, duh

[–] thesylveranti@feddit.nl 26 points 1 year ago

This really graph really does not show any statistical connection between the two parameters XD

Obligatory xkcd: https://m.xkcd.com/1725/

I know it's a meme, but still.

[–] hglman@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Warhammer has more lore than the rest of the chart together.

[–] Haus@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

The last season of GoT was so bad that it's not even on this graph.

[–] kemsat@lemmy.tf 6 points 1 year ago

The chart seems to show that autistic people prefer things the less real they are

[–] at_an_angle@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I both love and hate Factorio is on here. Lol

[–] Captain_Ender@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's definitely the outlier. Zero lore. Maximum obsession.

[–] rare_polyhedron@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Star Wars has too much broad appeal to be that high on the autism list

[–] blaine@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know how anyone can say that Star Wars has more lore than Star Trek. They both have about the same number of movies and books, but Star Trek has hundreds more episodes of TV to expand the lore even further.

[–] canis_majoris@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You wouldn't say that if you had a conversation with somebody about lightsaber forms. EU contains MASSIVE autism. Filoni stuff is pretty autistic too and that's the new core of the franchise.

[–] Aesthesiaphilia@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The problem is measuring the absolute amount of autism and not the amount of autism relative to the fan base.

[–] Tak@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I know I'm not supposed to take it seriously but how the hell does Elder Scrolls have more lore than Warcraft? Warcraft has so much lore there's books to compile the lore that are also not definitive or accurate because there's more lore.

[–] Shurimal@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Ooh, the lore in Elder Scrolls goes way deep. I mean, there are more exotic concepts most know which are not really discussed in games like Lunar Lattice, Godhead and CHIM, but if you dig deeper, you're in for a real ride. Most of it goes way over my head, but concepts like time travel and AI from the future, Amaranth, and lastly, the Elder Scroll themselves about which Septimus Signus made simplified, but not inaccurate, in-game comments, are much discussed topics among the deep lore fandom. Plus all the more mundane stuff behind the scenes--dreughs, ayleids, Akavir and it's many inhabitants, sloads, Hist and their origin (discussed in Infernal City/Lord of Souls, but more questions raised than answers given. Hint: the Sleeping Tree is related to Hist and the rumor Ysolda dismisses as "nonsense" is literally true.) etc.

You could write a heavy tome about the history and deeds of the Dunmer people alone, let alone all the other events that happen(ed) in that universe.

[–] MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In Elder Scrolls, those books are already built into the games.

[–] Tak@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not sure if you're joking here

[–] Ubermiguel@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks like someone’s never read the lusty argonian maid.

[–] Tak@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Too much loaf

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

Well yeah. The more unnecessary nonsense there is to know that won't ever benefit me in real life AND to be an escape from reality, the better.

[–] Kichae@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

This is X-Philes erasure, and I won't stand for it.

[–] Roundcat@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I feel Marvel needs to be further to the right, and Spiderman needs its own separate category.

[–] johnthedoe@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I think given how massively popular globally marvel is. The ratio of autistic fans would be quite small even if the numbers are large. Maybe pre MCU I'd put it more to the right.

[–] FuyuhikoDate@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

D&D is not because of the Lore its because of crunching numbers!!! (my autistic friend who lives P&P in General and also love to optimize his Charakters)

[–] Sabata11792@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Just did an 8 hour shift playing Factorio instead of working. Should get my self checked out.

[–] MulhollandDr@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

missing the bioncle lore or maybes its so high up its off screen lmfao

[–] androidul@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

My Little Pony FTW 🙌

[–] Ignacio@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I'm in this picture, and I don't like it.

[–] Stabbywithsocks1@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

For the Emperor!!!

[–] Backspacecentury@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

As an IDW comics enjoyer, I love Sonic the Hedgehog being on this graph.

That is all.

[–] worfamerryman 2 points 1 year ago
[–] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok but CoD Zombies actually has quite a lot of lore

[–] variants@possumpat.io 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I still remember all the hate threads on modern warfare because of how warzone messed with the canon of the series. Haven't seen such an autistic fan base not sure why it's so low

[–] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Probably the fact that, despite any lore or canon, 90% of gameplay across the typical modes (campagn, multiplayer, survival) is mindless gunfighting

[–] Dohnakun@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

So why has Factorio less lore and more autists?

[–] Captain_Ender@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not pictured: FFXVI. Shits got so much lore packed in it, the game literally has a special pause button to read its own Wikipedia of what's on screen so you're not completely lost. Even the devs of the game admitted they didn't fully understand all the lore.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 year ago

Team Fortress 2 has the most autistic lore imaginable that it is literally a crime for it to be where it is on this scale.
