A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

I still don't understand why not focusing on the games is such a big deal.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayWhat's so special about the games anyway though? We saw enough. Too many events would just get repeititve, and they don't hve important characters in them.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's PlayI don't know if we really need a sports arc though :V
Twi needs something more complex than a 3x3x3 Rubic's Cube

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!I agree that I would have liked to see them push the Games angle harder, but I wasn't expecting them to, so I don't really hold it against them for not doing so.
As a means to tell a variety of stories with different characters, you could do a lot worse.

It's obvious that we would never get an episode that was just the Games.

What do you mean just the games? Any episode we would have gotten would not have just dealt with the games.
And no, it was built up as something of a big deal. The fact that it was obvious that it was not going to be really that big in the end doesn't really negate all the time spent on it before.

Well the preparations went on in the background for three or four episodes.

I kind of hoped that maybe the Equestria Games could spill over a bit into the finale. I guess you could blame them for having two seasonal stories, but the Games were going to be a footnote regardless. If the finale works it probably doesn't matter too much.
Oh well, bring on Crystal Castles and a villain that may or may not be from G1. For rapture or ruin, we plunge in.
