Talk:Stranger Than Fan Fiction/@comment-29397463-20160801102007

pretty much making an account just to say that this was the best episode in a while if not one of the best. i remember seeing people worried that it would portray MLP fans poorly/offensively or that the end of the episode would have the critic forced to enjoy something or whatever. good thing neither happened.

i've seen people complain that final fantasy is awful after VI and the fanbase is divided into fans thinking 1-6 are actual ff games and that newer ones, or ones after 7, are not. they never come to any agreement and it's been going on for quite a while. this episode portrays that kind of situation pretty well and ends it on a lesson i've seen nobody display on any forum.

and i'll echo what someone else said and say that the convention was a pretty good way to start, both for setting up the above situation and for making it difficult, although briefly, for the characters to identify the real ponies from the cosplayers.
