I have a theory that the more lore a franchise has, the more of an autistic fanbase it has. I made a graphic about it.
Dont take it too seriously. This is just for fun.

And just like that, I have found Lemmy to be along the path of the beam. Go now, friend, and may we meet again, at the clearing at the end of the path.
Pity we went with a bird as the unofficial kbin mascot instead of a fish, then, since we already have our rat
Maybe. Maybe not. Factorio really tends to scratch the constant-stimulation dopamine button that makes autistic people quite happy and get into hyperfocus, so it's one of those really really close venn diagrams...
First you build your miners. Then your factories. Oh no, a bottleneck. Gotta optimize. Good, let's scale production up. More building, but then another bottleneck! Optimize.
Occasionally shoot biters because ain't nobody got time for alien bastards ruining my optimization experience.
Are you really trying to say kingdom hearts has a less autistic fanbase than harry potter?
From an outsider's view, I'd think they're close. What I wanna know is how Kirby has more lore than My Little Pony. He's a blob with a one-word vocabulary.

He's got a surprising amount of lore attached. He's also canonically way more powerful than you'd expect
Yeah, just don't read that lore from here: https://kirby.fandom.com/wiki/Kirby
My head hurts from bad writing.
He's the literal reincarnation of capital-G God. Also there are other reincarnations of God running around the universe. Kirby lore is... unusual
POYO!

Kingdom Hearts as a franchise is autistic, but the adult fans know it's fucking stupid. Meanwhile, HP adult fans don't realise how weird it is to put your Hogwarts house in your profile bio, because HP is mainstream, and they're autistic.
This really graph really does not show any statistical connection between the two parameters XD

I know it's a meme, but still.
Thank you. I found it to show a data cloud scatter and no linear regression. Just because there’s a few near the origin, doesn’t mean you can connect a line to them and call it a day.
Avatar The Last Airbender has the same amount of lore as Star Trek? How are we measuring this?
I don't think OP knows what "lore" means lol. GTA ≈ ATLA ≈ Star Trek? DESTINY > DR WHO?!?!
To put TF2 so low when it has Abraham Lincoln as the first pyro is a sin
To put Minecraft above it is a joke of it's own
I have no idea where TF2 should fall, but I will say that for a simple-seeming blocky building game, Minecraft has a shocking amount of lore.
The "Amount of Lore" measures across the board are entirely bullshit. Warcraft, LOTR, Star Wars, and Warhammer are all in an entirely different league from the rest of the things here, yet somehow Warcraft is like in the middle? Lol.
Because the fanbase is autistic or because it has no lore? I've only played the first one and it basically did not have a story.
You wouldn't say that if you had a conversation with somebody about lightsaber forms. EU contains MASSIVE autism. Filoni stuff is pretty autistic too and that's the new core of the franchise.
The problem is measuring the absolute amount of autism and not the amount of autism relative to the fan base.
I don't know how anyone can say that Star Wars has more lore than Star Trek. They both have about the same number of movies and books, but Star Trek has hundreds more episodes of TV to expand the lore even further.
Team Fortress 2 has the most autistic lore imaginable that it is literally a crime for it to be where it is on this scale.
Well yeah. The more unnecessary nonsense there is to know that won't ever benefit me in real life AND to be an escape from reality, the better.
