A probably unwanted serious response: There's also the times reincarnation doesn't happen, whether it's going over in their original body, given a new (but already born) one or they take the place of someone else that existed before them. There's some wiggle room with that last one, since there's a question of whether suppressed memories counts or not. There's still the situations where they get out into the body of someone that died, or occasionally not.

in most chinese isekai webnovels it's transmigration, not reincarnation. that is, they avoid the unsettling adult mind in a baby thing (good) but instead take over a stranger's body and relationships like a pod person (bad).

I liked one concept, where the body basically was on autopilot and until the person returned or awakened basically wasn't fully aware or active. Leading to the mc waking up wondering why everyone thought he was an idiot that barely could tie his own shoes and the fail son

Comatose girl's spirit "incarnates" into the hand of the guy she has a crush on (actually replacing the hand with her upper body). Comedy ensues as he tries to fix everything and live his life without anyone seeing his person-hand.

Not isekai for obvious reasons but that does put Evil Dead on the table as some demon was sent from hell into Ash's hand. I guess we can also count Idle Hands as a similar example. That is assuming people accept The Divine Comedy as isekai.

IIRC, if you don't have enough cooking skill, then the food turns out bad even if you follow the recipe perfectly, which is what was confusing people.

Correct, you need to have the chef sub-class active as well. But...give they say there are 15000 players and 30ish (I think) classes available you'd think some of the players would of figured it out in the first day or two. I've got no issues setting aside my disbelief for the sake of plot, but it's just funny that everyone's either portrayed as either being a sulky depressed layabout or murderhobo the first couple of episodes. Like, everyone dumped into this mystery world with obvious leftover technology (cars, modern buildings and windmills etc.) Is all "wow, everything sure is a mystery!" And then proceed to do absolutely no investigate work. Anyway, I'm making the critical mistake of applying logic to an isekai show. Currently on episode 11.

If you are suddenly in a world where dying has consequences (known or unknown) against you, you are not going to take Chef as a subclass. You would take a subclass to assist your main class/guild in combat. Game logic is why bother with Chef if you can just summon food ? Other better things to put your subclass in like blacksmith, armorer, or anything to let you keep fighting longer. Switching subclass in the game also dumped all experience and levels for that subclass so it was not as easy as something like FFXIV /WoW /EQ where you could not lose crafting skill. So only weirdos trained Chef and most of them did not even try to cook. I think the cat was one of a handful that discovered if you go through the motions (like a big larp nerd they were), and know how to cook the specific things, and have the ingame subclass at a high enough level, you get good food. Plus you are assuming that everyone is just open to sharing everything. the city the main characters based out of is the rarity where everyone is trying to make it a good place. If the town they visit is an example of what else is out there, then open pvp, exploitation of the weak, and absolute guild take over are just the start you can assume lovely humans would also do elsewhere. I like Log Horizon because the MC is an Enchanter. Played only enchanters in EQ and while it doesn't do damage, healing, or tanking turning your enemies to sludge from dps debuffs and making your party demigods is the amazing feeling I fought for and always got. Enchanter as it was in EQ or Log Horizon will never be implemented again because a group with an Enchanter and without an Enchanter is a vast difference.

To discover cooking you need somebody that a) was willing to take a mostly-RP subclass, b) level it up, c) knows how to cook IRL, d) has the specific disposition to larp out the act of cooking despite being completely unnecessary as far as you can tell and e) hasn't fallen into depression and ennui. This is surprisingly difficult to find, especially among the population segment that's willing to stay awake past midnight to day 1 a new MMORPG patch.

to look at it another way, people who enjoy cooking might well take the useless rp subclass because of their interests. then when stuck in a mmo world where everyone is depressed, they might try cooking manually because that's something they enjoy doing regardless of the outcome. it's not the rare confluence of factors lh presented it as because most people cook to some degree and many enjoy it.

As someone that has played and has been stayed up with other people for day 1 expansion releases since 1998 and having made small talk from asking "what did you eat for dinner" the answers are mainly "McDs" or "instant noodle" or "tv dinner". To put it plainly, the Venn Diagram of people that "wait until midnight to be the first to play MMORPG patches/expansions" and "I made a five course meal with Duck A L'Orange" has an intersection best described as "maybe one person in another timezone and it's like 8pm for them"

Yeah the Cat was a serious cat roleplayer, so of course he picked up cooking because he liked doing it IRL and of course he's the kind of guy who, after several bland meals, would go "gently caress it" and try doing cooking the old fashioned way to see if it made any difference.

I've been sitting here cackling to myself for the past 5 mins because this is 100% true and completely slipped my mind. For context: my one roommate whom I share the house with never uses the kitchen, and I've heard tales of him failing to cook the most simple things to a comical degree. He also averaged 40-50+ hours a week in an mmo at one point (on top of his job) and only chooses classes based on optimal min-max math that he cribs off reddit. Sometimes you're so use to the blindspot you completly forget it exists. He also would 10000% just be a layabout in the town square if he ended up isekai'd into Log Horizon's game. I retract my previous statements your honour.

This all sounds pretty weird out of context. Do the ingredients themselves taste fine and the automation just turns it into gruel?

Jackard posted:This all sounds pretty weird out of context. Do the ingredients themselves taste fine and the automation just turns it into gruel? It's an MMO, so the way it works is that you have ingredients in your inventory, click a button, and then it deletes those ingredients and creates a new "finished product" in your inventory. There's no, like, physical interaction between the objects, it all happens on a menu. And the resultant food item looks perfect but tastes like cardboard, because ultimately it's just an inventory icon. And conversely, if you try to cook normally without the subclass/skill level, the dish just poofs into a designated failure item (burnt charcoal or whatever) no matter what you do.

Jackard posted:This all sounds pretty weird out of context. Do the ingredients themselves taste fine and the automation just turns it into gruel? Almost. Raw ingredients taste like raw ingredients, but combining or manipulating them beyond applying some seasoning counts as cooking and would turn into mystery mush for most adventurers. Conversely, picking a dish outta the cooking menu would deduct your ingredients and give you a very pretty but entirely flavorless finished dish. So people would have to rely on flavorless food with salt or get used to whatever fruits they have on hand. Can't even chop some veggies for a salad. There was also the secondary issue that most people could not really handle the transition from "fighting monsters on a screen" to "I am personally stabbing that thing in the head" so there was a huge population of combat-specced characters who wouldn't bring themselves to do the one thing they could do, which would contribute to their depression. And there was body dysphoria to boot. Kyte fucked around with this message at 03:03 on Aug 8, 2022 |

It's specifically things that count as ingredients in the inventory system. So things like raw vegetables, salt and pepper, raw fruits. Sauce isn't an ingredient under this system, nor is butter or cheese, but milk is.
