What're you talking about people fucking lap up deeplore.
Connor White
It's mostly people who are still stuck to criticism from the 2010's and are automatically scared of anything gaining a fandom. Lore was a way to sneakily make animated series with plots popular again, cartoons of today that have a longer tale to tell don't hide the plot in references and easter eggs, they just fucking tell it and are the better for it.
Wyatt Fisher
Because most Lore shows suck.
Easton Nelson
It makes things overly complicated and tiresome. Some people just like watching one-off things with no pre-established knowledge to understand things, also with all the "lore shows" that have been pumped out, it's understandable why people don't want anymore, especially since these shows grew in popularity because of their one-off shit.

Examples?
Landon Gray
There's nothing wrong with anything if you do it right.
Kayden Morris
You're only allowed to enjoy funny faces and twerking. Thinking and imagining too much is cring
Nathaniel Watson
Done poorly, they come off as a bait and switch. People are initially drawn in by the fun low stakes gags, and then suddenly the show shifts into melodrama.
Asher Price
what is lore again, exactly? it is just a synonym of continuity?

There is a large chunk of /co that hates anything without

It’s just annoying when shows try to posture at a grand scheme and then make like amber heard and shit the bed. I’m cool with mysteries and Easter eggs and backstories and all that crap, but if you’re going to go there, make sure there’s a destination in mind and make sure you don’t just bail partway through the journey.
