Get Ready for some Mindfvck

I cant believe how much yapping this season 2 has, when I can barely stand the preach on season 1. Omg that lengthy talk about leadership, sticking out with friends whatever is so repetitive that I finally used the FF button. ML was so obsessed about getting the answer whether they could leave the game if they finished all the games, when he’s been asking the wrong people with wrong questions. Why ask the citizen player whether they could return to the real world when the citizen’s real world is the borderland? Duh, I fastforwarded so much at season 2 cuz they keep yapping useless things like lamenting their past lives or their regrets or meaning of life. It’s amazing how they would yap yap yap when the time on the game was usually only 15-10-5 minutes left. Those preaching is also much cringe-worthy that i failed to see them as profound at all.

Episode 8 felt like the writer is trying to dumb me down with multiple “jokes” told by Queen of Hearts. The ending made everything seem even more senseless. Is this just another cheap trick to bait people for S3 cuz they never really explain why the heck was everyone having the same borderland experience? This season’s ending seem like yet another of the fantasies that the players are experiencing, it’s a hard sell. I feel like I am being tricked, but since the only reason why I struggled to finish both seasons was to find out who the real mastermind is, I guess I’ll have to endure a little bit more of s3.

There’s a lot of more blood getting spilled in this season, I guess with the weak script they had to do something to keep the audience on edge. More blood, more gory deaths, more gunshots. But no worries, as long as your favourite characters are within the top 5, no matter how many gunshots or slashes or burns they suffer, they would simply survive. The amount of resurrection they did on Aguni and Niragi are so many that I lost track of the numbers. The writer really dumbed the audience down with this one.

I am quite frustrated that I havent found my answer even after enduring 2 seasons. Now i had to watch s3. Duh.
