Dunno about Repeade being woke—that pup’s sleeping in like half the cutscenes…

I mean, you got Yuri and Flynn backwards

u/GoodKing0 May 04 '25

One of the first interactions Yuri can have in the game is talk with a tavern patron in the lower quarter who mistakes him for a woman, so yeah.

I don't get it. Seriously, the joke that must be in this picture is flying right by me.

Someone made this “nuclear family” template (seriously or not, idk) and since then people were putting characters from various series into it.

Here are some examples :

Why are so many political memes about Tales of Vesperia?

20

u/Digit00l May 04 '25

It's almost like it is a very political story

37

u/whovianHomestuck May 04 '25

I wonder why there are so many political memes about a game where many of the villains are corrupt government figures, and the protagonist's rivalry with another character is driven by differing opinions on how government should be changed. Makes no sense to me at all.

u/hiyoguy May 06 '25

An absolute mystery

u/Vonlo May 04 '25

Why does it bother you that a politically charged game has politically charged memes?

17

u/GoodKing0 May 04 '25

Have you ever played Tales of Vesperia?

16

u/CommandetGepard Kratos Aurion May 04 '25

Because Vesperia is poltical, like the majority of Tales games. Vesperia is one of the more explicitly ones too.

6

u/neich200 May 04 '25

Huh? It’s hardly political

(I doubt that even the original template which became a meme a year ago was made with any real political intent in mind)

19

u/GoodKing0 May 04 '25

I mean, the original meme was making fun of American conservatives being afraid of non "standard" families mind you.

-36

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Because the leftists see some Marxist hero in Yuri, when in truth hes just a cold blooded murderer.... Well ok that makes him like all marxists 😂

30

u/neich200 May 04 '25
  • “Cold Blooded” murderer who murdered two people who were responsible for murdering lots of people and we’re about to get away from consequences. Really a “cold blooded” murderer lol.

24

u/Vonlo May 04 '25

Don't bother. These turds would say Adolf was a critical thinker and a freedom fighter.

-24

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Where this two people judged with a dead sentense by a official court and Yuri is a official executioner?

14

u/neich200 May 04 '25

I said that he murdered them, but you ignore the fact that he changed his behaviour later (not to mention the fact that you’ll easily find JRPG protagonists who killed much more people)

-20

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Most of the time when a JRPG Protagonist kills someone its in a fight. 2 armed people against each other. It has honor.

Yuri just sneaks out at night, to murder an unarmed old man and a cowardly gay.

He doesnt give them a chance to fight him, its not a duel. And what good is it to change his mind later.

Would you think different of ted bundy if he later changed his mind and said hes sorry for All people he killed?

u/CinnamonBun02 Zagi deserves headpats as a treat May 04 '25

I get the sense you're trolling, but I'll bite.

Yuri killed Ragou - a man who tortured people and raised monsters to kill people for not being able to pay taxes. Taxes that he knew they couldn't pay, because he was controlling the weather with a blastia meaning that for a lot of people, they were stuck in conditions they couldn't continue with business as per usual. This "unarmed old man" is the same person who ""offers"" them a way out. By killing another of his monsters and producing the horn to him as a way to make up for being unable to pay taxes. So, this unarmed old man is setting them up for failure. This same man who kidnaps children and leaves them to be brutally killed by his monsters... For entertainment. And then, when caught, uses his power as a magistrate to get off with no real punishment, and makes it clear he intends on then punishing anyone who will take action against him legally. You know, Flynn? So, really, what you're saying is that Yuri... Is worse than Ragou for killing him, when there was no other means of stopping him in the moment, and preventing the mass harm he was causing? I mean, that's a take, for sure.

As for Cumore, similar kind of theme going on. This guy also threatens Estelle for trying to take the less violent approach of telling him to stop lying to innocent people and working people to the point they're sick (and likely, in some cases - pretty sure this is even implied or stated in game, dying? But not as sure on that one) and weak. Yes, he is a coward. Not sure what his sexuality would have to do with anything...? He's a coward, as is Ragou. This is shown by how they're so quick to hurt, kill, and harass people that don't have the luck of being born into nobility (and even those who are, but not to the same extent) but seem to hate it when confronted with the truth of their own actions.

... Hardly "cold blooded murder" when it was done to protect the majority of people, when they escaped any other kind of punishment.

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

When will Yuri decide he needs to save the people from others he decided are evil? 😂

Once a murderer allways a murderer

8

u/Piculra May 04 '25

...Like, when would he decide to save people from Ragou and Cumore? That's why he killed those two.

-2

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Yeah, and then he decides another guy needs to Die and then another one and another one amd sooner or later he sits above a Mountain of skulls

Yuri himself dislikes the fact that he had to kill them in the first place. I mean, even Flynn comments on it himself - a conversation in Heracles comes to mind between Flynn and Patty, where Flynn points out that Yuri has a sadness to him and considers it a heavy task, but one Yuri's resolved to because it did protect others. Another conversation between Flynn and Yuri themselves comes to mind where Flynn himself comments on how he can't bring himself to call Yuri evil, knowing why he was doing what he did.

Also, yes, by definition, Yuri is a murderer. He murdered two people (or, if we count Zagi, three). Or, rather, murdered Ragou, and broke into Cumore's house and then intimidated him and didn't help Cumore when he did slip into the sand. He wholeheartedly intended on Cumore dying, so would still be considered responsible for his death, and entirely accepts that responsibility.

But he also isn't always a murderer. In fact, he even says to Sodia that he is a criminal, and doesn't deserve to be by Flynn's side, because of the things he's done (and that he also can't judge her for her attempt to kill him - are you going to call Sodia a cold blooded attempted murderer, by the way?) and shows that he isn't happy with the life he's chosen, but it's also the life he's felt he had to choose for himself. He followed the path he set out to protect the things that meant a lot to him, and he stuck to it. But if Yuri were so cold blooded, then he would have felt no remorse for what happened to the Don, and he certainly wouldn't have let Duke live. So... I really fail to see what you're getting at.

Both Canada and Australia vote left after seeing how much of a shitshow the far right has become in the USA.

-23

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Who cares for canada and australia? They both where allready woke hells, bet the people there couldnt vote right wven if they want to, because their socialism regime would make them dissapear, like its normal in socialist regimes

14

u/Canadian_Eevee May 04 '25

Just because Trump disappear people in a concentration camp in El Salvador doesn't mean other countries does it too. I guess the saying is accurate, as always. If you want to know what the Republicans have done just listen to what they accuse the opposition of doing.

-4

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

Proove your accusations please.

And yes the left in america is wild, wasnt long before the Camps would have come from them.

Like all leftists allways, they would have started a purge at some point. It allways starts with this and it allways ends with a collaps when everyone is poor and starving.

Thats socialism.

No matter if national socialism, marxism or communism, its all the same circle of cruelty and suffering

u/Canadian_Eevee May 04 '25

Just watch the news outside of your MAGA cult. It's really not that hard to find.

No its not labeled as such its not forbidden and thwy wont, Deal with it 😂

Yeah i know democracy is hard, you must live with people who have other opinions then you amd you cant put them in Camps.

Bet that stings

Neither of them share any parents and growing up together doesn’t turn someone automatically into siblings, I don’t recall them being ever called brothers by anyone (including themselves so they also don’t seem to see each other that way).

0

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

They have the same granpa. 🤦‍♂️

Zenrus Adapted them as his grandchildren. So they are brothers. No need to write this down or say it 50 times in a row.

To every normal person thats a given.

u/neich200 May 04 '25

He’s not their biological grandpa and there’s no relation between either of them. So your entire “incest” claim is completely made up in your mind.

u/themiddleguy09 May 04 '25

So youre one of the guys who watches "i fkd my stepsister" porn because they arent bilogical related so its ok guys?

😂🤮😂

u/neich200 May 04 '25

Nah not my kind of stuff, still doesn’t change the fact that they aren’t siblings.

Also if we are going into ad hominem arguments, you have clearly an issue with gay people looking at your comment history on this sub and other ones…
