Anticipated these non-consent articles from tabloid writers since the reveal.

It's not possession, but forcibly controlling the minds and motor functions of individuals against their will. It's brainwashing with motor function control.

Cap-ture

It's a pun. It's a lot more obvious in Japanese because they use a loanword to describe what would ordinarily be written in actual Japanese. I think it's kind of lost in other languages.

The golden rule, outside of religious ideologies, is completely meaningless.

All secular morality is arbitrary, and what is moral one year will be immoral the next. Without a solid, unchanging basis for ethics such as religion, morality eventually devolves into hedonism.

Ethics are not complicated at the end of the day. You just have to ask yourself what would you want other people to do before you do something yourself. Every religious book in the world was written by men who tried to find fancy ways of convincing people of this, when really it's not the part that requires convincing. The part most people fail at is listening to that voice in your head that says "you really shouldn't do that", because it's easy to ignore.

Well that was obvious.

Anyone who was actually paying any attention whatsoever would have been able to tell that Odyssey actually takes place inside the minds of various characters with Mario adventuring through their dreams.

The things you control in the dreams do not exist, therefore Mario is not possessing them, he's just merging with them to do stuff inside the dreamscapes that he can't normally do.

Semantics. It's the same process/function with the same objective: to control another person. There are other video-games that utilize the "possession/mind-control" mechanic before, which hasn't garnered this much attention in the negative sense.

Mario never came home from work that day.

The kinds of "threat" tend to differ though.
There's the threat of society abandoning you if you stop "being good"
Threat of society itself failing if enough people stop "being good"
There's threat of reprisal from the individual if you stop "being good"
There's threat of being exempt from a good afterlife if you stop "being good"
There's threat of outright punishment from an omnipotent being if you stop "being good"
There's threat of self guild and having to deal with empathy if you stop "being good"

If you want to play it that way, EVERYTHING is threatened into "being good", since "good" is often a way to maintain safety in a group and therefore the lack of safety could be considered a threat.

It's just that they pretend that belief in their chosen subset of supernatural bullshit is not retarded.

If you talk to her parents they don't say her age.

But talking to townspeople you find that Zora can live for hundreds of years (the current King's own story is inscribed on now unreadable stone tablets after all), and most if not all adult Zora in the town were alive pre-calamity, including Finley's parents.

You also find out that Zora's don't appear adult until a growth-spurt implied to be a few decades into their life.

But I don't believe Finley's age is explicitly stated,

But I dobelieve that "Sasam" (Finley's love interest) is supposed to be comparably aged to Finley to demonstrate the relative difference in lifespan to the player.
