I don't want a million supplements, I've said this already. Why are people assuming that I have a craving for Consuming Six Billion Supplements when all I really want is the conclusion of a campaign that's taken way too long to make?

Like I came back to look at the kickstarter page and they've only gotten one of the stretch goals that people paid for out.

Shackling is basically inverse Royalty. Depending on whose fan-canon you stumble over it's either barely disguised slavery or "the thing that lets your technically-not-a-robot buddy remain recognizably a person." Or both.

e: also even more hilariously it's sort of vaguely implied to be the sci-fi version of putting a mask on the Black Flame in K6BD

Debates on NHP personhood and the ethics thereof are a smokescreen to avoid confronting just how alien and terrifying NHPs really are.

Consider that if Ra really had a problem with shackling NHPs in caskets, it’d make us stop, or explicitly forbid it like it did research into transhumanism.

Edit: Which, thinking about it, could also just mean that Ra is a self-serving jackass willing to subject its own people to slavery anfsdfb44438325h222324234&&�

Nothing, but RA didn't want us doing poo poo that might lead to humans getting on its level.

(RA is when a collection of human AIs accidentally dreamed a god into existence. It stole a moon and hosed off for a while, and then came back and we negotiated a treaty whereby we'd stop doing poo poo that might eventually make more gods and in exchange we can continue to exist. It bans the posthuman elements of transhumanism. On the upside, studying what we could see about it vanishing is how we figured out FTL and things like that)

In this case God is really loving weird and their throne might not even be a place accessible by people that exist in three dimensions. But that shouldn't stop you from trying if you have your heart set on it.

RA and NHPs are a pretty neat concept while also being a handy contrivance to explain many of the fantasy elements in an otherwise sci fi setting ("our AIs accidentally tunneled a hole through the walls of the universe, and by studying the resulting weirdness we can now engage in FTL travel and poo poo. Pataphysics!")

On the whole, it is probably a good thing that RA wants humans not to make more MONIST entities or pursue immortality. Harrison II didn't need to live forever and nobody else needed him to either, and the only other known MONIST is in charge of a culture of ultra reactionary human crusaders.

I'm all for dunking on entitled nerds, but... it was promised as part of the Kickstarter campaign, it is something they paid for and are literally entitled to.

Kickstarter campaigns are a toxic minefield for smaller creators and it's easy to overpromise even when there is not a major global pandemic, so I wouldn't take it out on Operant personally, but I don't blame people for being miffed about it either.
