The novel is more satirical. Over the years I’ve heard complaints that the people who made the movie, either intentionally or unintentionally, toned down the satirical aspect of the humor too much and dummies might consider it an endorsement of that kind of society.
Edit: after taking another look at his comment I think tigbitties is just saying the world of Starship Troopers is right-wing, not the message.
Yeah, satire can be difficult to calibrate. The difference between fanatical and satirical support can be hard to spot. Or just over the top characters for the sake of entertainment without any intended message. And you might be right that it was about the world rather than the intent.
Well it’s usually high elves that are the rich elite, while wood elves and basically everything other than humans are the minorities, and humans are the “middle class”.
I’ve played enough Bethesda games to know that they’re like the Final Fantasy series, but instead of reoccuring themes or characters like Cid, or moogles, it’s reoccuring weird ass janky-ness and bugs.
For instance, I fully expect NPCs to walk stiffly as if they have a broom stick ALL THE WAY UP THEIR BUT. Random performance issues, and maybe even some crashes to desktop for flavor.
I’ll wait and see how it’s received, just like with Cyberpunk 2077, I don’t see what the hype prior to release is about. Wait and see, that’s the smart play.
