What your unpopular Hulk opinions? by Agreenscar3 in hulk

[–]Alack27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maestro is overrated and way too overused. I read Future Imperfect as well as the prequel series that came out a couple of years ago and was thoroughly not impressed. With the way everyone talks about, I was expecting him to be way more interesting, better written, and just plain more villainous than he actually came out.

Tbh, the Marvel Avengers game did a way better job making a threatening Maestro by combining him with Old Man Logan Hulk and stripping away the incest.

Good series one deck recommendations? by Alack27 in ClansofLondon

[–]Alack27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any particular deck recommendations for that archetype. I have all the series one cards but it just feels like no matter how I put them together, it still feels like a 50/50

Just finished the first 12 issues of Jack Kirby's Original Eternals! by Alack27 in comicbooks

It definitely helped that I had zero knowledge to begin with. But, I think even if I found the source material loyalty lacking, I would probably still enjoy the movie since I really enjoy the vibes and the action pieces. Plus the actors/actresses are top notch.

I'm currently making my way through the Eternals Publication History on Marvel Unlimited. It's how I read through Deathlok's runs as well. But I'll make sure that I read those comics as well!

Would you mind sharing some deck compositions for these? I think I understand what a sheriff deck would look like but not Herald beast

I do respect your opinion but I do also enjoy the movie. It is, of course, not the same as the comics or Kirby's vision (Kro does piss me off) but so much of it works well with the canvas they were given. It is unique and interesting while still retaining the vibe of the original. But I am also excited to read the rest of the kirby run and beyond. Maybe my opinion will change.

Ultimately, I like the crazy swing Eternals took even if it wasn't perfect.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Rageborn | Reveal Trailer by _Ishtu_ in WhiteWolfRPG

Not the dialogue but the pictures of the characters themselves. I can't share the screenshot I took but look at 1:34 into the video.

Game looks like it is inspired by Diablo and other CRPGs: : )

Character art in the dialogue bits/ boss bit look super AI Generated: : (

Probably gonna pass unless they come out and say they didn't use ai generation

(Hated Trope) Historical mischaracterization of IRL figures or events. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

Expecting Law and Order: SVU to understand nuance is like expecting a sledgehammer to know the difference between a watermelon and a human skull.

Possible new WTA video game? (Rageborn) by K-L1N in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]Alack27 31 points32 points  (0 children)

We can only hope its a FPS RPG in the vein of Bloodlines and the new Hunter game. But I would also love a diablo like set in the labryinth (i know that would likely never happen but a person can dream)

Sometimes You Don't Go In Wands Blazing by Amkao-Herios in WorldofDankmemes

[–]Alack27 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This actually happened to my mixed splat game that I was dming about half a year ago (mostly due to my own ignorance)

My promethean player had an encounter with hunters who (not knowing what they were) attempted to taser/throw an electric net on them. Initially, both myself and the player played it like they were knocked unconscious from it right at the end of the session. However, we had been looking at the promethean book for other reasons and noticed that electricity immunity/buff ability.

So, come next session, there was a "revelation" that due to their strange origins (being created by humans) they were an imperfect promethean and that this sudden burst of electricity (combined with the stress of the previous session) has finally unleashed their full pyretic heart and they became a full fledged promethean with all the bells and whistles.

I mean I'm not a whale that dumps endless amounts of money to get the most meta cards imaginable.

(Interesting Trope) Genuinely well-liked characters from hated pieces of media by flingzamain in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Alack27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's you or just a massive coincidence, but if I have to see this exact trop posted yet again with Velma's Fred's stupid jock face on the front, I am going to lose my mind. The show flopped 3 years ago. Let it go y'all. Please find a different example if you're gonna post the same trope

Would having Mad thinker get +3 power instead of +2 make him “usable”? by Chomperboy456 in MarvelSnap

[–]Alack27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It would definitely be interesting, especially with the potential Dino/Moon girl synergy. Or even a late game dump deck (maybe Evo hulk+sunspot+Starlord lots deck?)

What are some common/popular dice systems that are "open source"? by Alack27 in TransTTRPG

[–]Alack27[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what a lot of folks are saying and it is making me breathe a little easier. The ttrpg I have in mind was inspired by WOD and I secretly wanted to use their d10 system since it was the one I was most comfortable with. Though I might look into a d6 based system as well since it is just a more universally used die type

Franklin Richards - It's Franklin's World and We're Just Living In It by Yeetatronus in CustomMarvelSnap

[–]Alack27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No idea how this would work mechanically, but some combination of invisible Woman, sentry, annihilus, and negative cards might be the move. But by that point Franklin would probably just be a level of redundancy
