Destroy the world.

Isekai fucking sucks but people complaining about isekai protags not wanting to go back to the real world are fucking stupid. The real world sucks for most people.

It's actually quite easy:
If the real world is a better place, try to go back
If the new world is a better place, why bother?

Is this a question?
I would establish a connection between the old and new world then sit back and watch as they both surprise themselves with their discoveries over the new world.

Best case scenario:
We just had a double Earth.
Worst Case scenario:
War

Either way, it should be fun seeing the upcoming 50 years of cultural clash that would happen as I just return back to my room and shitpost.

re:zero, grimgar, saga of tanya the evil to say a few

>We just had a double Earth.
I just came to realize how much potential this option actually has

NASA is currently up on arms trying to find life in astrobiology. Establishing connection with the isekai world is no different from landing in a different planet.
Provided that the connection don't cause a pandemic first, it would actually trigger massive revolution on all fields of science and art on both worlds

Our scientists and engineers would be more than giddy to share their knowledge to the people of the new world as they explore new biomes and chemicals that can be used for things that they do not expect,
Not to mention, our lawyers and economists are walking revolution should they come and speak about the rather backwards culture of the isekai nation.

Likewise, their magic would bring great boon to our world that is, and always has been, in short of energy sources.

Should a connection be established, it shall be another Age of Exploration but this time, we are culturally prepared. Hopefully.

The only realistic scenario of any "other world" contact is a cold war and arms race at best. At worst one side invades the other.

Realistically the gate would be under the supervision of the UN and holds all the rights to destroy the gate if diplomacy was not met.

Nobody would have the balls to close the gate for good. Maybe they would pretend they did to keep it a secret.

There's no internet there unless you make it yourself using magic computers.

The entire point of the "another world" genre was to act essentially as a coming of age story where the protag has to reconcile themselves with the realities of life rather than lose themselves in the flights of fantasy. Without that aspect, it just becomes indulgent escapism and completely antithetical to the original genre.

If it's an isekai world akin to SCPshit, you bet your ass they would

Though, I picture the new world closing it once they read upon our history and how the only reason we stopped doing wars is because both sides have nukes now.

Back to what? Most of Isekai Protags are young Japanese males. At best they can expect a soul crushing life as a salaryman.

>Learn how to survive

This is obvious. They should do Abe proud by finding a wife and having kids in this new world.

Japan was a backwater of the Earth for a surprisingly long time.

don't get me wrong, i like an adventure as much as the next guy, but you're giving up a lot of good stuff in exchange for superpowers and maybe some pussy.

Yes really.

Back to the real world if a normal person, crash and burn otherwise.

If you are in a shit world like Warhammer go back ASAP, if you are in a world with magical modern amenities stay there.

No, really not. Considering how insulated they were them being backwater is not surprising, but to be expected. The final signs of them being backwater was during their deliberate isolation in the edo period, which again, is not surprising but to be expected.

shut the fuck up cum brain.

So you admit they were backwater.

It's nothing to admit, it's totally normal and nothing to be ashamed of.

>>Japs were backwater
>n-no they weren't
>>Yes they were
>w-well maybe but that's nothing to b-be ashamed off

You missed the point. What I argued against was the surprisingly part, not the backwater part.

UN wouldn't be able to do shit, just like all our other major global decision making just boils down to USA/USSR>Russia/China doing whatever they want.

If a gate opened it would just start another cold war between the major powers over the control of the gate location. If multiple locations opened everyone would be racing over to try and establish control over new territory in the isekai ala the Arab world in the 70s all over.

I think a realistic case is shit seeing as we can't collectively agree to play nicely among ourselves much less with aliens.

>and establish control over new territory in the isekai ala the Arab world in the 70s all over.
I think it'd be Scramble for Africa 2.0

How did this turn into a GATE thread again?

fuck shit up by pionering technologies and ideas that world isnt ready for, then go into "i did nothing wrong.jpg", then he will either die by old age or got mobbed by angry people

UN can’t do shit. NATO is the organization that does shit, even then it’s because US bankrolls it while EU gets to enjoy the benefits. If a gate opened up, it’ll be the US that gets to it first, unless it’s in China, North Korea, or Russia.

It's named isekai (parallel world) for a reason.
Their journey parallel aspects of their original life.

Take the Reprise of the Spear Hero for example.

Spear hero was killed for being a two-timer. Thus he gains the ability to rewind time. See the figurative-to-literal twist? That's what makes it fantasy.

Shield Hero on the other hand lived lonely life with a trust fund, that isolated him and made him wary of women who were only interested in his money. And so, in the parallel world, he's thing of safety, the shield, also isolates him. And of course, in the very beginning get's played for all he's got.
There's also a yet-to-be seen plot thread about his brother. Who he introduced to video games as a form of stress relief. Remedying his bad attitude.

What if the entire earth gets isekai'd?

>It's named isekai (parallel world) for a reason.
Too bad for you that this isn't even the case, isekai is just different world.

Beatstmen and monsters populate Africa.
Beastmen, dwarves and elves go to giant forest areas.
Giant spiders and fire monsters go to Australia.
Americans invite goblins and ogres over to race mix a new species.
Europe and China are a warzone.

Why? Life moves forward. Only a coward who is afraid to live life would go backwards. Are you like that, OP? Are you projecting or something?

Aren't those terrible because the MC wants to go big world shit instead of just becoming a farmer or something?

Actually his little brother could be represented as Fohl.
You know. In the same way The Wizard of Oz farm hands became the Lion, Tin Man, and Scarecrow.

But the Anime only references his little brother once, in the first episode and says nothing about video games. Just that he saved him from becoming a delinquent or something. In the LN his brother dyed his hair different colors. So that could be another connection to Fohl. Not to mention, he's like the only other male character to party with him.

Explain to me how being a slave of animal instinct is a good thing, my fellow enlightened being.

Sure, once you explain to me how people going against their natural instincts to prop up an artificial moral code for the sole purpose of conformity is a good thing.

Is there no isekai where MC despairs over how he will never get to meet his family and friends ever again and hits a brick wall trying to cope with what should effectively count as having everybody you know be killed off and not having any chance to say good bye?

Or are all MC just cold psychopaths?

generally, the person who dies is the one transported to another world. not sure how many of them know that their old bodies are dead and they more likely than not will never return to their homeworld. but in either case, they will know that their family and friends are still alive.

that, or whatever takes you to the new world and gives you the needed superpowers is also kind enough to supress those feelings. after all, if magic is real, it isn't too much of a stretch that memories could be repressed or emotions kept in check via some ritual or other.

They often are loners to begin with. Family/Friends usually aren't mentioned at all. Makes sense for a medium where MC is supposed to be an easy self-insert. Comparable to harems, except for the obviously NBR sister.

colonialism 2; Nuclear boogaloo

Reincarnation isn't Isekai. It's a completely different story format.
And only very young characters experience separation anxiety. The story parallel is usually some kind of loss of a family member. A dead mother. Or a change of school.

Main problem with most of isekais is the lack of objective. It comes as no surprise that we never get to see the end of an isekai story.

i don't get this. i'm a major loner but would probably not react well to a guarantee never to see my family ever again. what kind of cold asshole would go "huh i guess i died so all that time spent, all my memories from childhood, the people i've seen come and go and the place i called home, that's all gone never to come back." and completely shrug it off? the only justification is when the MC is a canon asshole. which makes all the "good guy" MC with social skills and such very unsettling to me.

>Reincarnation isn't Isekai.
Sure it is if they keep their memories from the old world.

>What should the MC actually do in an isekai setting? Try to find a way back or learn how to survive in the new world?

Assuming he isn't not summoned and subsequently burdened with expectations of saving everyone, he should just game the system to get what he desires.

>going against their natural instincts
We can never completely deny our instincts, however, we can apply reason and use them in a productive way so that our natural desires align with what is optimal for the survival and longevity of ourselves and society. There need to be priority and we must first look at the big picture instead of indulging in the whims of the moment. Sometimes that requires to suppress and deny ourselves short term gain in order to achieve long term growth.

>Artificial moral code
Everything around you is artificial, most of your thoughts and ideas are artificial. If we were to revert to our "natural" state, violence, tribalism and barbarism would rule once again and humanity would return to being slightly smarter monkeys.

>sole purpose of conformity
Modern conformity and fashion states that we should in fact indulge in every degeneracy imaginable and that nothing is sacred or off limits. Thus going against this trend is currently the ultimate display of non-conformity and rebellion. An indulgent and degenerate rabble that only seeks pleasure is much easier to control, after all, than reasonable individuals seeking enlightenment.

Well typically when you die you'd drink the waters of the leth and forget. But there are story reasons why one might skip that beat.

Maybe you're a possessive control freak. Those things exist without you. So what you're really laminating is the fact that you're not part of it anymore, which is triggering your OCPD.

Well, some people are born into crappy, abusive families, and if that's the case then it's understandable that the MC wouldn't give a flying fuck about them.

>being an orphan in a wwi(ii)-era world
Does not sound pleasant.

You can try to reestablish the Skoptsy sect, they tried to fight the animal instinct with some success.

I would get a wife and become a farmer

There actually were manga just like that. Well, minus the getting a wife part, but that probably would have come later.

Completely wrong, anyone who remains more fascinated by coming of age stories and slice of life than interesting adventures in unique settings while over the age of 18 never grew up and lives in their mom's basement unemployed. Coming of age stories are shallow by design, and only intended to interest young adults so they give you their money, but also aid them in the transition to adulthood. You're not meant to fester and collect them, never growing up yourself.

Re:zero is only a problem because Subaru keeps himself around Emilia and trouble constantly follows her. It's why the Rem If story, the two had been living peacefully for 10 years.

This. Rephrasing Churchill, current era is the worst except everything that happened before. Of course you may also invent a very comfy isekai, but that's not a given.

>What should the MC actually do in an isekai setting?
Learns magic and lives a comfy life as an adventurer. Leaves "save the world" jobs to someone else.

ADVENTURE.
This is what so many isekais get wrong. Fuck your generic fantasy starting town and your guild autism, you accidentally violate some ancient custom by tripping on your autism and falling into the princesses' bouncy anime chest. Now, young lad, according to the laws of our kingdom we'd execute you! But being a good-natured people at heart, and being in a bit of a bind, we'll instead send you on a quest to find the five macguffins which are also things the audience will enjoy you both searching for and finding!
Here, take these two mid-low-tier magic items with you, along with the obligatory low-life half-elf town thief who you'll also need to reform along the way!

Basically, the villagers are just taking mercy on the MC and want to get rid of their thief, they think they'll just go hide out and start a new life somewhere else and not bother them. They even gave them a few heirloom magic items to pawn off, not wanting them to be stuck in poverty and have her just teach him to steal. Both of which are things the thief wants to do, but the MC being entrusted with the missions takes it seriously and wants to prove he's not a bad guy to the townspeople and be let back in, because he's afraid of this setting and they seem nice. Ironically, this leads him to bizarre locales and huge danger as he actually pursues the quest they meant him to abandon, to restore their former glory.
True best case: Those Who Hunt Elves, which was about the modern world, including some adventurers, phasing into a fantasy realm and probably vice versa but unseen. It also did GREAT on the interesting MacGuffins, the plot being you have to strip any elves you find to look for magic tattoos (with a better justification than you'd thing). Also a tank that ran first on "gasoline fruit", a result of the worlds merging, and then on a cat's soul. Dumb as fuck annoying late-90s anime tropes all through, but rises above them. Plus, turnip fairies was such a cool idea.

Make love to all the cute lolis.

>What should the MC actually do in an isekai setting?
If he is isekaied, he is special by definition. He should check if that specialness comes with some benefits and then use them. But that's just what the most iskeaiers do?

I just a nice and comfy life on the fields with a young wife and my 8 children, in which I would give the daughters to marry other farmers as family alliances, take the elderest son to take care of our business and the rest I would expect to join the army.
Is that too much to ask?

Ah, the "other civilizations would be more peaceful and better than us", not just good for aliens, now for isekai settings too! Based angel complex.

Adventure is it's own genre genius.

Yes, we definitely need more baaaawwwww "psychological" anime, thanks for your input Anno, don't forget to kill off all sense of wonder from all fanciful settings.

He didn't say it's surprising that they were backwater, he said it's surprising that they stayed that way for so long

Adventure and Fantasy are both their own genres and fantasy adventure is a sub-genre of each at the same time. Isekai is also a sub-genre of both, because isekai always involves either a magic or magitech portal or an alternate idea of an afterlife, and is the definition of adventurousness in that everything changes at once for them, other than sometimes their gear. Isekai fantasy adventure is an overlapping sub-genre of two sub-genres which share the same two grandparent genres. The level of synergy here is incredible, and the only reason it isn't explored more is because it's easier to bait people in with the first two episodes of a fascinating concept, then do cheap easy slice of life once people are invested in the characters.

ALSO, isekai is just a character development attachment to the genre of whatever world the protagonist ends up in. Their special abilities and knowledge which make them unique, or not, derive from their MC status as an isekai victim/beneficiary. Isekai to a space station with no magic and you're in a sci-fi, it's just an isekai sci-fi. The act of isekai is adventure/fantasy unless explicitly sci-fi, but isekai itself isn't really a genre, it's an attachment to new or existing genres based on the world(s) the author creates.

Finally, isekai is a storytelling device to allow you, the consumer, to be introduced clearly and completely to backstory and mechanisms of the setting without having a weird awkward sequence where the characters say "of course you already know that [basic information]", or a shitty amnesiac protagonist or side character who asks the same questions about the plot and setting every episode, just in case the viewer forgot. You can learn and grow along with the MC, allowing you to empathize with them to a greater degree and get more engaged in the story.

So in summary, isekai is a device and a hook, not an actual genre, but it's a hook and device people like, so it gets grouped as a genre for sales.

What about a world with no grand, central "save the world" mission? I don't get the autism appeal of the MC being all coldsteel and philosophical about "haha, I'm so non-egotistical that I don't care if everything dies". Sort of a boring outlook for an adventurer. Wouldn't a nuanced adventuring world with no one threat about the blitz the earth be better?

But like already said, those instances were not surprisingly but instead to be expected.

We do need more anime where the MC isn't some numb drone who mercilessly kills whoever and whatever he likes while being heralded as a hero all while having an obsession with asserting how much of an average joe he is

Unironically based

Haha wow muh deconstruction of the hero trope wowie that sure is deep and well done and never overdone, let's have another one where the MC ponders the meaning of "why should I help these people just because they look like me? I don't know the history of this place or what its politics are like" while your typical overwhelming force crushes village after village. Maybe he could just sip some tea and brood deeply on the nature of human suffering while the light of burning huts reflects in his misty eyes?
That sounds amazing, I love getting my worldview from entertainment media and not actual books. Can Subaru screech a little more about the whale and how traumatic it is for him? This is something I want the anime to focus on because I personally have never seen or heard of trauma before and can't understand it unless it's shoved in my face.

It's really depend on the setting but mostly must try to survive
Generi fantasy world? Become an adventurer and defeat the evil beings or sth
World at wars? Fight in the wars
Reincarnated as a member of a monster race? Kill all frickin human
Being reborned as mixed race baby between races opposing each other? Some how make peace between those races
Being isekaied as a neutral supreme being? Rule the fucking world
The world is too degenerated? Destroy the whole world

>this genre that became popular because of human beings' boredom with the present world and their desire to explore new worlds was actually a ploy to convince people to not be bored with the present world

I don't even know what insecurity you're trying to process here but you should stop.

Isekai doesn´t just mean the light novel crap Japan keeps spewing out. Alice in Wonderland and Wizard of Oz are also both Isekai. And the point of those two stories is very explicitly that staying in the fantasy world is a bad thing.

Yes. If only because there is a decent chance your fields would be burned down the moment war breaks out.

"Western books written to be allegorical philosophy are the soul of isekai, the Japanese term, referring to comic books which are produced and sold for profit and entertainment, generally on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly chapter basis."
I agree that you really should stop.

isekai does not only refer to manga

Coming of age stories have some value as nostalgia bait and a means of good storytelling. And it´s still a way more healthy outlook than the Isekai mindset of entitlement and eternal puberty.

>entitlement and eternal puberty
Yeah, nothing more entitled than being forced to part with everything you knew and loved, and nothing more immature than getting things done, adulthood is all about being too concerned with your social status to do things you need to or you enjoy.
If you're looking to derive a "mindset" from comic books you have a problem and should read more actual books. (Preferably not those mentioned in this thread above, or Catcher in the Rye, or even Slaughterhouse-Five, really any mope-core is something someone like you definitely needs to avoid.)

Most Isekai MC, despite how the story tries to paint them, are massive entitled pricks that only exist as self insert bait for the target audience of massive entitled pricks. Some stories try to get around this by making the main character a tragic misunderstood figure screwed over by a uncaring society. But that too tends to have its own list of problems.

Honestly, any Isekai protagonist that doesn´t want to go back is a massive warning sign that the story you are about to read/watch is not very good.

Dr Stone?

>nothing more entitled than being forced to part with everything you knew and loved
If the main character is personally fine with that because "MAGIC WORLD!", then he is a entitled prick.

> and nothing more immature than getting things done
Fleeing from the life you have is not "getting things done".

>adulthood is all about being too concerned with your social status to do things you need to or you enjoy.
Adulthood is about accepting that the world is the way it is and making your own path in it. Not rejecting that world altogether for a immature fantasy.

What iof both aliens in this universe and people in an isekai one are encountered at different times? A few decades after regular contact between the worlds is made and humans have been using knowledge from there to more rapidly expand in the solar system actual aliens decide to show up but they never have any idea about other worlds or magic being possible. Both worlds uniting against the potential for an alien threat?

I think that the character motivation is the thing that diversifies the glut of isekai content.
If there was one right answer to this it would make an already limited crowded subgenre even more limited.
I'd go as far as to say that isekai works best when it's more about the state of mind of the characters then about the mechanics of the world or autism sheets.
After all we know how fantasy works and we know how game systems work, it's not interesting in any way.

same world, user, same world

Isekai is a type of story. It has nothing to do with the format or who makes it.

It depends on the world you get transported to. For example, if you get transported to another world with lots of magical conveniences, you get something that makes you above average, the world has gods that you can communicate with, an actual afterlife, etc...its a huge improvement over our current world.

We dont even know for sure if any gods exist or if there is any afterlife. The thought of oblivion after spending your whole life working and dying at an old age is honestly quite depressing and we only get through life by trying not to think about it.

If you went to a world where there was ample proof that god and a nice afterlife awaited, you wouldnt get the feeling that you spent your whole life working and dying for nothing, at least you would be able to continue after your death in some form.

Also if you get to resolve some physical issues as part of the isekai, thats also a huge attraction. If you are disabled, cant walk or something, and get to isekai with a fully healthy body, its going to be very tempting.

Obviously giving up your friends, family and stuff you love would be hard, but depending on your personal circumstances on earth, it might actually be worth it.

Isekai, by its very nature, does not allow a huge deluge of character motivation. Assuming that you actually want to write a good story, there is pretty much only one. The desire to go home.

>What should the MC actually do in an isekai setting?
Teach the barbarians our modern morals and values like freedom, liberty and democracy before going back.

>It depends on the world you get transported to.
Well, obviously. If you get transported to literal heaven, a case could be made for staying. But there is no such excuse for your typical generic fantasy world.

If you decide to stay in a fantasy world because something in it makes you above average, then you are a entitled prick. Not only that, but you are a immature entitled prick.

As for the religious angle. That's just plain cowardice. It's enjoying the benefits of being able to put your faith into something, without actually having to put in the mental effort to sustain your believes.

>Obviously giving up your friends, family and stuff you love would be hard, but depending on your personal circumstances on earth, it might actually be worth it.
It can be worth it, sure. But that doesn´t make you not a massive prick for choosing it over the life you have and the people that care about you.

As a sort of training so he can bring us these things as well when he comes back?

>But that doesn´t make you not a massive prick for choosing it over the life you have and the people that care about you.
You could say the same thing about wanting to go home though once you have lived in it for a while.

If by "For a while" you mean "longer than you have in the other world" then perhaps you might have a point.

You can't just go and leave your wife and daughter behind just because you were "just" 15 years over there.

Abolish slavery.

Why would wanting to go back home be the only motivation with which a good story is possible.
Fantasy land may be worst then real life in most ways, but when writing a story you can just say the version of the real world the character comes from is a dystopian nightmare.
With very little effort you can plug the hole of "why would he want to stay there".

I mean, you shouldn't have a wife and child in the first place as long as a chance exists you might be able to get out of there.

>Why would wanting to go back home be the only motivation with which a good story is possible.
Because otherwise, the main character is a massive sociopath that cares nothing for the people around him.

And if he is from a dystopian nightmare, which they never are, then that should be reflected accordingly.

Why didn't that faggot off himself?

Again, and you really need to stop trying to avoid this point, if you derive your behavior or morality from entertainment media you are the problem, not the moral message you imagine that media to embody.

So, throw your life away or at least waste several years and do nothing with possible commitments because there might be a chance to get back? If anyone back home loved you they'd tell you to not do that.

I don't derive my morality from entertainment. And even if you want to argue that neither does anybody else, then fine. But that still doesn't make the works themselves any less abhorrent.

>..they never are
Overlord did it
>if he doesn't want to go back he's a massive sociopath
many people move from their home country leaving behind friends and family for a batter life, are they sociopaths?
In most cases they justify it from that angle, most isekai characters did not live good lives before being reborn. Being in a new place with new people is how people irl will often try to turn a new page.

that's still not proper enough Rance

>Overlord did it.
Wasn't the MC just a random Japanese salary men in his past life?

>many people move from their home country leaving behind friends and family for a batter life, are they sociopaths?
There is a difference between moving to a different country. And literally going to a different dimension for the rest of your life.

>In most cases they justify it from that angle, most isekai characters did not live good lives before being reborn.
I'm aware of that. It's just that such a angle is complete garbage as well. Since in most cases, not leading a good live has nothing to do with the world you inhabit.

No, it's exactly that if you never manage it or it just takes too many years. You could have had a family but you didn't because you'd rather spend the rest of your life trying to get back home (where everyone will assume you're dead anyway). Also,
>not building a fake little life in a fantasy world
doesn't even apply in most cases since both the world as well as your life there are real.

>Wasn't the MC just a random Japanese salary men in his past life?
Yes, but not in the modern 21st century, you must be very retarded to think he somehow is. He is a salaryman in future Japan where the nuclear world war has turn most of Earth into unlivable hellholes and the rest of the world becomes a cyberpunk dystopia controlled by a totalitarian regime that disappears citizens whenever they like and enslaves the entire population. No sane person wants to return to such place.

Imagine being so much of an evangelical soccer mom in the 21st century that you think the downfall of conventional morality is tied to a sense of adventure in fantasy manga, not, say, every other mangaka wanting to fuck kids and throwing that into their products that they market to teens.

There are so many others just as good or better, and that one killed people.

Find a way back and then uncover your world secrets with your isekai power

>killed people.
Everyone kills in isekai. I can't even remember a protag who kills no one.

The world of Overlord is explicitly stated to be fucked up in the LNs. It's ecologically fucked and the business culture grinds people into minced meat and there is little upward mobility.

I don't see the big difference between being dropped weird fantasy land and rural Russia. Yea, it sucks at first, but in a year or two you'd rather drink with Ivan whose sister likes you then go back to to the stressful life of an underpaid intern or whatever.

Just live life honestly. Given that most modern isekai protagonists are NEETs and losers the only thing that'd make sense in the context of the narrative would be for them to try to live a comfy life.

How did they have enough time and money to waste in a MMO then if it was that bad?

I'd stay over there if it had magic and cute monster girls. This world is vile as hell.

Depends on the world. So as long as it fit my criteria i'd staty.Fuck this shithole, fuck my friends and family.

What wife and daughter? I'm with the bandits, senpai.

>How did they have enough time and money to waste in a MMO then if it was that bad?
You clearly didn't read enough dystopian fictions. The games is one of the tools the regime used to control and spy on the population. To play it, you literally need to connect your brain to the internet, which allows them to read your entire mind.

Do I get a cute ponkotsu dragon girl that loves chocolate? Because that'd be pretty great.

Fuck off Marche.

Yeah depends on the world. If it's high fantasy I will stay and become spacewizard. They don't know how laws works so with little practice in their magic you can create RKKVs for example. YOu can be big player

Marry a nice girl, find a way to bring her back to Japan with you, then marry her and raise a family with many children.

That works for dystopian in general, but since the only information given in the post was that their economically fucked and grinded by their companies, I'll have to assume it would have to be worse than real life Japan to be called dystopian, which then leads to the question how they have money and especially time to waste in a MMO.

I mean sure, but it's still an absolutely terrible place to live and there's not really much stopping the Witch Cult or one of those legendary beasts killing everyone in their town.
Like shit, that fucking whale literally deletes the memory of you from everyone's minds as well as straight up erasing you.

I'd stay to get away from people like you.

If I get cheat skills >>> try to become immortal supreme being

They said that the members of his guild were whaling that game, I wouldn't expect that to be cheap.

They we're spending all their spare money on it in many cases. But that doesn't really say how much that money is worth outside the game. It doesn't imply they were well off or would have been well off if they didn't spend on the game.

Such defeatist thinking. If you aren't given cheat, just try to take it by any mean necessary.

It depends on how you get there. If you got there via magic circle, portal, strange animal, or device strapped to your real-world self's head, then yeah, it would kind of make sense to try getting back to your world. But that obviously isn't an option if your soul was whisked away to another world upon your death, as so many modern-day isekai protags are. You can't exactly cross time and space and undo the truck or random knife slasher or airplane crash or whatever... until you can, and by the time you become that powerful, you're usually swimming in wealth and pussy in the new world anyway, so why bother?

kumo

>What should the MC actually do in an isekai setting? Try to find a way back or learn how to survive in the new world?
To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women

Why hasn't anybody made an isekai where the main character breaks the world with meta knowledge rather then by having cheats?

>by the time you become that powerful, you're usually swimming in wealth and pussy in the new world anyway, so why bother?
Because after becoming a planetwalker who can tear off the fabric of space-time, ruling over just one world will become very boring and you will find new adventures in other worlds?

Actually study magic, because it is apearently possible to reach into universes without magic of their own.
Endgoal is to become a planeswalker and if that doesn't work simply learn more because magic is fucking dope.

Then you at most you will just become as strong as the strongest noble. But cheats are literally godly powers.

Earth can produce enough food to sustain several times of our population, isekai worlds tend to have less then 1 billion of people.

What happens if you get Isekai'd into a world with no major wars and no race crusades?

No, I meant cheats as in special powers which quickly escalate the characters powerlevel. Example: powers that let you acquire other powers.

>implying we aren't already in an isekai

>no major wars and no race crusades?
so basically an island?

Producing that amount of food takes time, and distribution without the infrastructure isn't going to be as efficient.

I was implying more or less raiding

This is why you form a refugee rape gang with other iskai'd anons, ya dingus.

i'll be honest, if my life there was decidly better than the one I have now, and/or I have the ability to improve lives there on a grand scale (either through macguffin powers or just the fact that i can carry over 21st century knowledge) I feel that I have moral obligation to do so.

That would just be quantum leap user.

The answer does not have to be poorly. Sometimes, when faced with adversity, people can actually do well. The reason why "trapped in another world" works as a premise is because of that conflict. Relying on cheats instead of just having the main character be capable is not just bad writing, it's lazy as well.

Fatalism. If the world seems unchangeable, you simply say it can't be helped.

I would wait till i'm an old man on the brink of death and just kill myself.

I think a homogenous city-state could maintain democratic republic even with overpowered individuals, as long as voting rights are tightly controlled. If republics of old and modern could survive while containing individuals who have half the nations wealth in their direct control, so could if that individual could shoot a few fireballs.

Pretty sure a cheat would give your opinions a lot of weight.

That's why you should try and overthrow the system in this world, not a might makes right isekai one.

Most MC don't have a choice in isekai and are forced by Gods.
Some don't have families.
Some have shit families they hate for objective reasons like picrelated.
Most explicitly say that they didn't have anything in their life but work so it's no biggie to isekai.
Sure they might've been able to socialize with their relatives if they wanted to but it takes two to tango if you wageslave for decades and nobody botheres to call you - you probably won't miss that family anyway.

In Grimgar they pretty much have no choice. They're thrown into the world with wiped memories and instantly shoved into adventuring.

If we're talking any isekai in the last 10 years, then the MC should stop being such a beta fag and fuck the girls who want the D.

What does the "person herself" even mean? Some unique soul? Because otherwise a person is defined by the genes and upbringing.

Why does is matter if other people could have done it? If they didn't and that guy did then he becomes special.
What kind of faggot defeatist mentality is that?

>steel being so low.
But Iron, cold iron, is the master of them all.

Some people don't fulfill the human desire to create because they don't see the purpose in building a gun when they can buy one. They see things too much in terms of the end result of functionality. The purpose of creation is the affirmation of ones' ability and the result of one's unique design. Basically, normal/sane people are not hedonists/nihilists and cuck 'hobbies' like meditation that do nothing require self delusion to seem appealing.
And this is coming from an autist that understands every single one of marx's tenents was 'because I said so' nonsensical faggotry used to justify control.

>What does the "person herself" even mean?
A individual.

It matters because there is nothing special about anybody. Like you said, all that matters is that they did something.

A sacrifice for the minotaur.

Working on one. Focus is on the post-isekai healing after having a rough isekai, but there are some consequences for coming back being OP and all.

Being a individual with traits that make you the best at something does not make you special either.

>Do you not have to put in some effort to keep them from breaking it off on their whim?
Yes. But if that works or does not work also has nothing to do with you as a individual.

Even the poster child of the Greek city states, Athens, had a failed democracy, and after a brief amount of dictatorship made a system which is based on lots since voting was considered flawed by principle. That was unique and somewhat stable, but not really an example of democratic republics.
Roman Republic collapsed under its own weight and turned into a dictatorship as well, though in this case the Republic was stable for a long enough time so it's saying something. However, the Roman Republic was constantly at wars, including civil wars, so I have to deduct some points from stability.

That would improve almost every one of them too. And if it's the manga adaptations, show more than just a page.

A set of traits and genes, shaped by their experiences.

The crossroad, however, is always shaped by circumstances. It's the situation, not the individual, that gives you importance.

I don't need to speak arabic to work in a welding shop or herd goats, and once i have learned arabic through immersion, give it a year and half, I can get up on my own, find a nice hut and convince some old fart to marry his daughter out to me, start my own shop, make a family and live a happy live. fuck, if i can afford to move to a bigger city i might even get into higher education, get a degree in business and retire when i'm 56 with three kids and a nice car

You're right. But it has everything to do with them being absurdly great compared to the native population.

This is the result of circumstances, not who you are.

All humans are ordinary by nature.

People are not great or important.

>or having a quality that most similar things or people do not have:
There is not a single quality that millions of other people do not have. Even if you are "the best" at something, which you can't measure anyway, then that still doesn't change the fact that you could be replaced just as easily by a million other people.

Healing magic probably isn't that advanced until after someone like Lelei starts studying.

Those people don't exist. And even if they did, wouldn't change the fact that they only got success because of their situation.

>Knowledge is certainly one. But more important is a human level IQ.
No, it's economic circumstances created by human and natural developments outside their control.

Nope. If they had died, somebody else would have done the same thing.

Isekai but the main character is jesus

Again though. There is no feat that only one human can pull off. The only thing that does exist are feats that only one person HAD to pull off.

Please stop shitposting. You're playing the "because I said so" definition game, where you define your terms absurdly to high the fact that your argument is shit. It's annoying.

I'm not shitposting. I have yet to hear a single valid argument against my claim.

so its kinda a drifters thing? or more like a eternal savior(EMIYA) kinda business that as soon as he dies and gets resurrected(?) he goes to a new world in need of him?

Isn't that just the real world?

>If they had died, somebody else would have done the same thing.
worth a few cents... This happened because someone else tried to do the same thing.

>No, it's economic circumstances created by human and natural developments outside their control.
So even when they do the work themselves, it is outside of their control... Stop being an apologist.

You define circumstance so boradly that ist means whatever you want it to. That person saved their money becuase of circumstance. They invested it because of circumstance. They studied because of circumstance. They invented something because of circumstance. They were tall because of circumstance. They were their parent's child because of circumstance.
You're literally using circumstance in place of a deterministic fate.

Humans can be important. Fact. Damascus Steel blacksmiths are special. The're important

Have you seen the kind of gods most of these worlds have? When so many worlds are in trouble by their own mismanagement they aren't going to pick the good people. Those more competent people are chosen by the smart gods with more challenging problems, or those worlds just don't need help.

This denies nature. Nurture is situation.

>You define circumstance so boradly that ist means whatever you want it to.
No, it means what it means. Most things in life are outside of your control. And it's those things that allows somebody to become great.

Who is easier to manipulate to do your bidding: the police officer, the fire fighter, the doctor or the worthless shut-in NEET?

>No, it happened because of historical circumstances outside the control of the individuals that attempted to found a nation.
The nation already existed. This is the result of the reigns being turned over by their own volition. Everything was already in place. All the work had already been done. They literally received a fully functional and modern state.

It does not make them great. Nor is it a quality most people do not have, since being able to remember a recipe is not that hard.

>(of a person) having high rank or status.
Somebody having a high rank or status has nothing to do with how they are as a person.

>Damascus Steel blacksmiths are special. The're important
The fact that you can say "Blacksmiths" already disqualified all of them from being special.

The NEET is probably the hardest, they have experience in not doing what other people want them to do.

oh user... more than half the population of the world is literally absurdly retarded. The average Abo/African IQ is 65. The average latin/arab IQ is about 75. Retardation is defined as an IQ below 85...
IQ is is not based on knowledge, it is completely independent. But did you know that better memory is heavily correlated with higher IQ?

Because those people suck at manipulating them.
You don't order the NEET to go do your bidding, you give him a cheat and some waifus and then manipulate events so he COINCIDENTIALLY ends up getting involved in situations where his actions help you.

Nope. Nature is just another circumstance.

The world isn't a meritocracy. The sooner you accept this, the easier things will get.

The truth of the matter is, a lot of your life is decided by how you're born and another lot of it is decided by your upbringing, the first you have no control over, and the second you only don't have any control over at first and after a while you only get a limited amount of control over it.

Personally, I think it's fucking bullshit.

You said no one is special now you're talking about people being great.

Profundity I guess. If escapism allows you to escape real life, the opposite would throw it right in your face. Something like NHK Ni Youkoso except Yamazaki and Misaki don't appear.

Even if that is true, which I doubt, then that still leaves over half of humanity to be as capable as those blacksmiths.

A bit of both is the reason why the country failed completely. Other people might have done better, or they might have (somehow) done even worse. The point is that "other people" is a group in the millions.

I'm reading it again. But i'm still reaching the same conclusion. Just because you happen to know a respite, a recipe that almost everybody could use if they know about it, has nothing to do with who you are as a person.

>And the point of those two stories is very explicitly that staying in the fantasy world is a bad thing.

Understanding that the world is not based upon merit is not fatalistic, it's just sane.

>Who were never taught IRL best effort of best people still fail more often than not but same is true for mediocre people.
Even mediocre people can rise to greatness if the situation needs them to do so. Or if they just happen to be lucky enough.

>Best peopel putting forth best effort still have higher chances of success because of their best base (nature) and best process (nurture).
Real life is not a rpg. There is no such thing as a "higher chance of success".

The whole point of the story is literally "There is no place like home."

IQ is genetic. You can circumstantially have a lower IQ due to malnutrition but if you grew up well-fed then there is no way, at all, to increase your IQ.

Larper just become upset about revolution so he started "nothing is important" shit as answer. And someone mentioned fatalism so he googled

>IQ 80 Somali pirate and IQ 150 MIT graduate would make same quality choices in identical situations?
No. But there are thousands of Somali pirates and MIT graduates that would make the same choice in identical situations.

>Why are you contradicting yourself again?
Doing something important or big is not the same thing as being great or importnat.

>There is no such thing as a "higher chance of success".
Look, I know you heard that god doesn't play dice, but that isn't what it means.

I like how you call him a fatalist and then you start talking about two things that make up most of what you are yet you have little or no control over.

Sounds pretty fatalist to me.

It quite literally is /tg/ with dice rolls and uneven starting stats retard. Everyone can fail sure but higher stats provide higher rolls = superior ability to make best use of circumstances or fight against them.

IQ is not just genetics. In fact, there is quite a bit of debate how much is genetics.

Even if it is just 1/7th of the world. THat are still countless people.

A strongman does not have a higher than average chance to lift up a burning beam. He either lifts up the beam, or he does not.

user... with an IQ of 80, that somali pirate is in the top 10ish percent of all Africans...

How does Yea Forums feel about ngnl? I enjoyed it but i have a feeling anons here have some reason to shit on it.

I don't like how you missed nature and effort makes the different parts.
>No. But there are thousands of Somali pirates and MIT graduates that would make the same choice in identical situations.
That's not what I asked.
Would a pirate make same quality of choice as MIT graduate in identical situation?
>A strongman does not have a higher than average chance to lift up a burning beam.
>He either lifts up the beam, or he does not.
He has ability that he might or might not utilize to lift up the beam.
Weakling lanklet does not have such ability and therefore cannot utilize it.
This is the difference: higher chance of success because of superior ability.

There is no legitimate scientific debate. IQ is genetic; it is a product of the physical properties of the brain. Circumstantial factors can only decrease it.

I liked it even most of their victories were some Code Geass-tier asspull.

>In fact, there is quite a bit of debate how much is genetics.
There is not. One is actually based in reality, the other is screeching and insisting that unflawed studies are flawed in order to push deliberately flawed studies that match the lie you want to tell.

IQ is all meaningful terms is completely genetic. IQ is analogous to height. Just because you have the genes for being tall doesn't mean you will be tall, but so long as nothing weird happens and you aren't malnourished, you almost certainly will be tall.
If you have genes for being short, no matter how perfect your upbringing is and how good your nutrition is, you can't become taller than your genes dictate.
Replace short with low IQ and tall with high IQ.

But you die without porn. Just look at history, everyone born before the proliferation of porn is dead, and those born before the increased proliferation of porn by the internet are dying at an increasing rate!

180cm rounded to feet and inches is about 5'11, that's average or above average in most countries.

Don't tell me that 6 feet and over is a "normal height" since not even a fourth of the Earth's population is that tall, statistically speaking it's unusual.

>Isekai has slaves that provide effort-free companionship and intimacy.
There's still a little effort usually. Money can sometimes be a small barrier.

>Isekai has slaves that provide effort-free companionship and intimacy.
Not to mention the local constable having better things to do than raiding the brothels.

>Money can sometimes be a small barrier.
I have more than hikki can use IRL I'm sure in isekai with cheats I can manage small fortune quite fast.
Brothels aren't quite the same, they don't provide intimacy really but just sexual relief.
With slaves you can pick some deathbed scarred orphan, heal it and raise it well for few years with care and she would suck your dick so hard the sheets would get cramped up your anus.

Isekai is a fantasy after all, becoming the best friend of all the prostitutes and having the top quality friendly sex with them isn't that bad.

Even in european countries it's still a few centimetres above average in most of them, only in a few european countries where the average height is above 180cm, and only in a couple it's significantly above it.

As you can also see there are only two countries, well, more like one country and one mountain region, where the average height of women is 5'7 or above.

And Satou's promises to some like Lulu to wait 5 years weren't even serious.

It was pretty great. The word game bit was my favorite and actually clever even if it was sherlock levels of smart.

Just pointing out that olympics might not necessarily spell the very best, just the very best that trained and participate. Not the core concept.
>Another world isn't generally going to have easy reference material,
Eh skimpy clothes are enough to tell their body shape and any defects might be cured with magic as long as it's not genetic.

Since Olympics are pretty different from old Olympics countries trying to get best people. Especially young. There is tons of ways they searching for them. Best people in their interest. Even if you're poor but best they will find you

Sure but that's still not absolute: screening isn't fool-proof and some just don't want to do sports professionally.

There might be better potential athletes out there sure but as the ones we know of actually train they are the best athletes in the world.

All women would get my seed.

If someone isn't training in their sport professionally they aren't the best. Especially in athletics where skill doesn't come into play.

It is what if future hypothetical scenario. If you don't train you will not become best.
>Yea Forums is full of best painters
>they just hiding powerlevel
Just silly excuse. If you look at stories about people who become best from 0 they had passion. You know discussions about talent etc? Talent is mix of passion and hardwork.

I see plenty of disciplines someone could be best at with just training regularly on his own, without participating in competitions.
