META META by Busti9002 August 22, 2018

meta

1. Meta means about the thing itself. It's seeing the thing from a higher perspective instead of from within the thing, like being self-aware.

2. A term used in mmo meaning the Most Effective Tactic Available. It's basically what works in a game regardless of what you wish would work.

1. There's a lot of bad examples here, so I'll fix those.

Making a movie about the film industry isn't meta. Making a movie about making movies is.

Using a footnote to explain another footnote isn't meta. Using a footnote to explain what footnotes are is meta.

Metaphysics, probably the most common use of meta, means that instead of talking about the physics of the real world, you're talking about the physics itself (for example, why should there even be gravity).

2. Ninja in FFXI wasn't meant to be a tank, but it ended up being one in the meta because it's evasion was so high.

meta-meme

Meta-meme is a meme which transcends all other memes. It's ironic in content as well as form. At first it usually doesn't make much sense, but that's only because it's memeing itself. Once you understand its memetics, you understand the whole meme culture.
Usually very distorted, misspellt and shiny, a meta-meme combines elements of different mostly ironic or pre-ironic memes.

"Why is the minion saying 'Hey Beter'?"
"It's a meta-meme, you dip."

Meta

"Meta" describes a reference made in fiction, where the work reaches outside the narrative and addresses the audience directly or demonstrates awareness of itself as a work of fiction. This is best explained as when a character "breaks the fourth wall", for instance by looking directly at the camera and commenting about the movie or show they are in.

In the TV show Community the character Abed often makes meta references by referring to himself and the other characters as being in a TV show. In response to this, one of them once commented "Abed, it makes the group uncomfortable when you talk about us like we're characters on a show you're watching."

Meta Slave

Someone who only picks or uses top-tier or "in the meta" characters in a game. This can include hero picks in mobas, deck lists in card games, or a specific setup for a character class in an RPG.

Dude, that guy is such a fuckin' meta slave. He played Zoolock all the way to legend 3 season in a row.

meta knight

A top tier character appearing in Brawl. Due to his all-around flurry attack and his major recovery,
he was a top tier character that basically was generally used by many in Brawl tournaments. His victory theme was burned into most of us.
