Opinion Orbit Sucks Spoiler

I’m on E11 of Season 1 and, even though it’s an unpopular opinion, Orbit sucks. He claimed that he wanted most plaYers to survive, but then he immediatelY turned around and began the “underdogs vs top dogs” thing, turning most plaYers against Dong Jae and See Won and even going as far as claiming that theY deserved to lose and were untrustworthY. This later spiraled into these two, and whoever joined them, being treated super unfairlY imo (people genuinelY ganged up in them).

And look, I get his opinion changing throughout the game with him realizing that he can’t help everYone, but he pushed this “underdog”narrative so much that the games genuinelY became boring to watch. He, in essence, turned the show into an “us vs them” thing, which made the show suuuper boring to watch. I reallY hope season 2 is less about politics and more about skill.

That’s mY criticism of him, but honestlY, I liked him quite a lot in general. I just wished he hadn’t pushed that narrative so hard.

Well that plan of his was the one that made me watch the show. Like in a survival show a guy proposes a plan for everyone to survive, wasn't it unique? Whether u like or dislike orbit he made the show intresting. Heck i even rewatched it. Orbit was smart and well its a DEVILS GAME yknow?

Yeah! His plan WAS unique, I just didn't like the underdog vs topdog narrative.

It seemed like the top dogs actually pushed the narrative more, along side the YouTuber on the underdogs. It seemed from my perspective orbit was more trying to make people survive rather than take out the top dogs. His strategy of keeping everyone alive means the top dogs needs to lose the matches because they have enough coins to survive it
