G5 General Technology in Equestria (replacement for magic?)
replied to a topic in MLP Generation 5 (G5)
Nope, I pointed that out in the initial post about the screenshots. Looks like pony phones have a hoof-slot so they don’t drop it. Which is, granted, genius. -

It’s not technology that people are irritated about. It’s smart phones specifically. Also in G4 the general rule is that if it looks sufficiently advanced, assume its powered by magic. But the synopsis says that the magic is gone from the world. So any tech we see is actual, mechanical tech. Not magitek. And that’s 100% a smartphone. It’s shaped like one, she’s tapping on it, and it has a camera spot on the back. It’s possible they won’t CALL it a phone. But a phone is exactly what they’re trying to evoke here. -

That’s actually the main issue right there. If phones just EXIST and are used in a casual, practical way, then it’s not a problem. But if it’s littered with tired smartphone tropes like selfies, social media obsession, ect., ect., then it’s gonna suuuuuuck... You know what might have helped? If they made a not-phone. As in, it functions exactly like a smart phone, but doesn’t look like a human one. Just that little bit of distance from the real world object we all have would make it not stick out so drastically. -
Brilliant. I LOVE it.

It looks like the back of the phone has an attachment that they pop their hooves into to keep them from dropping it.

Unlikely. Sonic was a purely visual change. They’ve probably integrated the freakin’ phones into actual story beats.

Heh, you overestimate how much big companies give a flip about continuity. If they even slightly reference it I would be ASTOUNDED. -

I don’t want it to have Gen 4 style, but I do wish it was still 2D. I just have a real fondness for 2D animation, and I feel it’s really under-appreciated in general.
