are people that dense (or just desperate for “just like my japanese animes!”) that they actually want this to be a “to the death!” type of fight?

people were disappointed that it turned out to be a glorified ’rock ’em sock ‘em’ robots rather than a robot apocalypse type of battle.
 
it made people reevaluate their stance about this though

I don’t see the problem.

people are asking people to get hurt (or at least waste tons of money) for their entertainment. people want REAL guns mounted on them.
 
there was no prize, just “bragging” rights (since the fight was a letdown for a lot of people, it’s not exactly worth noting on their resume).
 
then again these are the same people who keep complaining about CGI robot films aren’t worth their time (compared to hand-drawn animation).

you can argue that footballers and boxers get paid. that and their audience are paying for tickets.
 
the robot battle has nothing (it’s not on ppv, you don’t have to pay a ticket to see it and the fighters get nothing) going for it except nerd cred.
 
basically they want this (and actual working guns) but with people inside

I get the feeling you just don’t like this stuff in general. How would you feel, if in the probably distant future, giant robot battles became a fairly popular sport?

i actually like giant robots (i just know that fully functional combat ones in real life are impractical and a general bad idea).
 
i’m venting about people who hyped the event as something out of a cartoon and got disappointed that it wasn’t (the opinion about how the american robot should be disqualified because it’s just “a glorified tractor” is very prevalent).
 
hell, people are complaining that this event practically seals the future of giant robot battles as a sport as DOA.

Don’t lie, you know that’d be really cool.

Why even look at what these people are saying then?

I thought both robots have some level of neat aesthetic value to them but I’m going to expect bias against the American one to be more common for easy to determine hipster reasons.
