    Like quite a lot of things referred to as "dark and gritty" are somewhat dark, but very slick, rather than gritty

    A lot of people do seem to conflate anything even remotely dark with the worst edgelordery.
  • Well, first of all, "dark" could refer to content or aesthetics, and "grittiness" usually refers specifically to a certain variety of cynicism with a bit of a fatalistic attitude toward things, as well as an aesthetic that empasizes the broken-down and ruined.
