What is the role of enlightenment in in the fate of humanity?
We are experiencing Destruction of enlightenment ???
I am considering exclusively the plot and ideology of the faction, not the ideology of individual individuals who are against "next Pokemon".
Enlightenment has always been for the shapers. We fought and fought for the shapers to enter our world and the world to become a better place. No, we didn't want Pokémon creatures around every corner. We wanted something truly new, great, and on a permanent basis. Something that could travel within the portal network, affecting the portals. Something that could be a permanent replacement for shards. Many enlightenment moss dreamed of the day when shapers would appear on the scanner.
We dreamed about this even before the advent of the Pokémon game.
But what do we have now? Our leader Roland Jarvis has betrayed us, exogenous beings cannot enter our world, and in essence we have no more reason to fight! All this chatter about being in favor of limitless use of XM and resistance for limited use of XM is complete nonsense that does not distinguish us from agents of resistance ...
The agents of enlightenment had a reason to fight, To let prosperous beings into this world. And the resistance agents had a different goal - the shapers should never get into this world.
With the last plot twist, the reason for the fight was completely destroyed, The very essence of the plot ideology. That's it, there is no more enlightenment or resistance. There are only two indistinct, but absolutely identical in functionality, groups of people drawing triangles for some reason. Why draw triangles? As a member of radical enlightenment, I ask why draw triangles, create portals if enlightenment from our exogenous friends does not come through them? What is the role of enlightenment in the modern world? Why are we fighting resistance agents?
My enlightened brothers, answer my questions.
I would also very much like the agents of resistance to describe their point of view exclusively on the role of resistance in the fate of humanity.

you sound like you need to go get breakfast, get some coffee, then go make some fields.
Explain to me why do we need to draw fields, what in the current situation will it give for humanity?
Methinks we have all the more reason to fight. True enlightened agents never give up, never surrender.
Oh, and forget about those pocket monsters, they're not real...
stability. The more things are in chaos, the more some things need to go on staying the same.
My sugar gliders would argue with you about that.
I never really cared for the Shapers. I just wanted to destroy them and take their stuff like a true murderhobo rampaging through an intergalactic dungeon.
Ask yourself this; Why do you want to worship Cthulhu, when you could be greater than Cthulhu?
Then realize that the fatal flaw of Jarvis's cult was they never dreamed beyond placing themselves into the position of being the servants of group of unknowable godlike beings that mostlikely just viewed them as something to eat. Hell the Shapers even told Jarvis that they wanted to consume humanity and he tried convincing us that the Shapers just were voyours. Jarvis never thought about where his enlightened self interest should lie given the possibility that the Shapers just wanted a human flavored burrito. In one universe, that lack of vision lead humanity to becoming reduced to cattle and mindless drones.
Jarvis was a cult leader. We need a true leader like Hank Johnson 1218 or someone with true vision like Oliver Linton-Wolfe.
OLW for the win. The dude who created the Scanner and the XM entities like resonators, bursters and so on, is the dude the Enlightened needs. Not some unknown Acolyte. Nor the guy who speaks too much but does nothing (Jarvis).
Тo be honest, let Jarvis be the leader of the cult. But such a cult as, for example, Buddhism. Buddhism preaches non-violence, and yet each of its Shaolin monks is a fighting unit. We must be the opposite of the calculating intellect of ADA, we must be on the side of nature and spiritualism. Here are our concepts as opposed to the robotic materialism of resistance. But alas, at the moment we have an unfinished weakling leader, an unfinished ideology according to which he led us. and of course a lot of plot inconsistencies. For example, I can't even imagine where enlightenment would lead Henk or Oliver. The leader of a particular movement must have a specific goal. And what is our goal at the moment?
I don't think that the exogenous are pokémon like, unless of course if every pokémon were Arceus.
Yes we are, since you can't build the story around the exos existence, then "open the box", discover who they are supposed to be and then **** the illusion. You point is right, the battle for XM dominance is a nonsense. Where are we going to head? To research on new exos is a dead end, since they've been proven to be "bad" for the mankind, on top of that, they didn't make contact with us in the first place, meaning they weren't interested on us. The RES has won the "lore" story and the ENL needs to find their own niche since Niantic killed their motive several times to make sure we lose our essence.
This right here, sort of. The Enlightened have been and always will be about embracing XM as part of the natural evolution of humanity. The Resistance have been and always will be about withholding from embracing XM to study it and understand its properties before taking any steps forward.
Enlightened are about progress, innovation, and advancement. They think the Resistance is holding humanity back.
Resistance are about stability, understanding, and analysis. They think the Enlightened are jumping head-first into water without looking first.
The Shapers were a big piece of the puzzle for a long time and I'm sad they're gone, but they aren't the main focus and never were. Jarvis ended up being proven wrong about the Shapers, but the Enlightened's idea of XM may end up being right.
Thank you, you're the third person in the forum who realizes that Shapers were the big deal for us since we tried to bring them to our node. I don't understand why many ENL players reject about the Shapers, our motive were 2, to bring a better access of XM to the mankind and to bring the Shapers technology to our node. Without, the Shapers, one of our motivations is simply gone, and the XM war is not that appealing to me
