Quote from: Leave a Whisper on August 09, 2018, 05:23:22 PMI wouldn't call this gen the highest quality MLP has ever been. The toys are the crappiest I've ever seen, the animation is cookie cutter, sterile and deformed and the cartoon is average fare. I think the toy quality varies, but the oversaturation of mane 6 doesn't help.

I think the toy quality varies, but the oversaturation of mane 6 doesn't help.The first G4 ponies I got had super soft hair, the latest applejacks have so greasy and unkempt hair even after I wash them, even how much I try the hair flair up after they are dry and no one have touched them ;^;. I know I can babypowder the hair but then it wont be shiny anymore.
But I don't think people should be hating on it over and over. Saying stuff on how they wish the mane six would disappear forever is really disheartening.
I've seen things, man. It was horrible. They were so ugly. And the names. Not the names. And Unicornia. How? How could such a place exist?G1: Does anybody even like this generation?I've never ignored the existence of adult fans of previous gen horses, but they've always been under the radar, while we provoked a culture boom, and we are WAY more open for our love of these horses with pastelis coloritisHonestly they just looked creepy to me.Gen 2 or 1.5: Divisive. Hate it with a burning passionGen 3 and 3.5: Horrible Abominations. The pony designs are freaky, nightmarish and unsettling.G1's are bulky and ugly and the cartoon had hidden bondage fetishes in itThey look like fat horses

Well none of the below are quotes from the arena, they're all about previous generation ponies.QuoteI've seen things, man. It was horrible. They were so ugly. And the names. Not the names.

I didn't say the previous generations didn't get hate, but G4 seems to get an unproportional amount of hate compared to them.

You seemed to suggest that on the arena g4 gets a lot of hate...but im not sure what youre comparing it to. I posted quotes from other forum where g4 fans slam previous gen of mlp. So i dont see how the arena has more hate...just because its fim/g4?if we say of all thr pony boards and forums out there then maybe you should consider places like the arena are the one place you can have a much better discussion on all the ponies, not just one gen.And maybe thats why because some of us dont consider g4 to be better or above other gen.And besides Ive been on pony boards long enough to remeber when g2 came out a lot of folks didnt like them and voiced their opinions on the forums. So why g4 should get a pass is beyond me.
@Waterdraw: I don’t think G4 gets that much hate here. I think the main criticism, in this thread, is around the fandom and the community it brings with it. I think it would be an excellent idea for the Mane 6 to find their happy ending. Not because I don’t like the characters. Certainly not because I hate them. But I am a tired of seeing them. They have been released so many times since the start. People are sick and tired of G3 Pinkie Pie for the exact same reason. It is not hate in my opinion, that is just wishing for more creativity and originality from Hasbro.Like Taffeta says, I will not look at it as G5 if they are to use the same characters as they have now in the same universe. That is not a start of a new generation. That is a reboot of the old one. What has differentiated each gen in MLP is not only the difference in poses and the toys itself. But the whole world of MLP. G2 ponies never interacted with G1, G3 ponies did not interact with G2 or G4. The concept of MLP were re-launched each time. If they’re not doing that- it is certainly not G5 to me. I really hope they do conclude the show and the characters. Good things come to an end and that is certainly true for TV shows. ANY TV show. Perhaps now, Hasbro will allow the future stories of the Mane 6 to continue in little girls imagination. Like they should have, in my opinion, a long time ago
