11755531 It was how the protagonist was constantly acting as if his way and his knowledge was the only way, when he's clearly in a different dimension entirely. He's lucky the basic laws of reality let him keep living after pulling off a dimensional hop, and in every interaction regarding how the ponies work the world around them, he's been nothing but rude and confrontational, trying to force his dimensions laws on this one. Having it happen a couple times while he learns how this new world works is understandable culture shock, but for every interaction about that topic? It was getting a bit much. Then there's his views that there's no way the dragons are the aggressors against the ponies, when he himself just experienced their aggression first hand. I'm glad Torch threw that in his face like he did, maybe the guy will finally learn he's not home anymore and the old laws he knows don't apply anymore.
The ultimate goal was to have torch open his mind to the fact that this world is different from his, so he got this eye opening realization. On top of that the constant pushback on pony culture was also planned, although I may not have intended to be has heavy handed as it was. Sorry for that.
11765241 Yea, it was extremely heavy handed. I'm glad it's gonna get better now, but one thing I'd love to see is him either learning, or realizing, that the ponies have to do what they do, break the laws the elementals have given his people, just to keep the planet alive and functioning. Part of that might be going to an area of wild weather, where ponies don't control it, and see just how either static the weather is. Or, conversely, how lethal the wild weather is. Give him an indisputable proof that what the ponies do is needed, and not just for their own benefit.
Link for short what?
