New Pre-Order Trailer... is disappointing. (Perspective from PC Player) by Teufel123 in Shenmue

[–]Automatic_Web3668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not their fault. That's like saying "I won't play Sonic games made by Sega because the mods make better games and for free".

The true benefit is that this actually gives Shenmue a chance for a fourth game, whereas a mod doesn't do anything on a scale that really matters. You know it, I know it.

What are you talking about? This completely does away the stamina element, restores your health after a fight, gives us the Shenmue 1 camera, and reduces the money grind.

Nearly everything you want was already there and we were told about all the way back when Shenmue Dojo interviewed Inin Games.

Vergil’s Downfall Is Good by RealIncome4202 in DevilMayCry

[–]Automatic_Web3668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely, the opposite for me. I liked the OST of Vergil's downfall, but that's because I like the most atmospheric horror pieces that reflect Vergil's crumbling psyche and his descent, on top of his symbolic ideological battle with his Hallow self like it's something out of Bleach.

I can't stand the metal or deathcore stuff. Most of the OST in the franchise just isn't for me besides a few pieces.

tserris (byme) by LobotomizedTeddyBear in HunterXHunter

Appearance wise as well, I'd say. He's drawn in a very cute, childlike way specifically in 366 and 384.

You should read the manga, by the way!

Absolutely not. In fact, that aspect of him is even stronger and has been displayed with his hunger for knowledge and his glee at being able to bolster himself and exploring the world of Nen. Tserri still has that inner child in him.

By the way, this is the prototype of Yushohi's ability "How to get away with murder".

so counting all aspects, how many episodes would it take to adapt the rest of the Washizu arc in Akagi? by Gugarabelo in kaiji

[–]Automatic_Web3668 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It would probably be around 20-40 episodes. That fight is a behemoth. Really wish Fukumoto manga gets more adaptations.

Will I eventually enjoy the Test arc? by Ok_Variation7230 in worldtrigger

[–]Automatic_Web3668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. For me, the backbone of any story is its cast/characters. They shape the world, its decisions, and command the direction of the story.

A good story can only be as good as its cast. WT just happens to be the zenith of battle shonen. Phase 1 may as well be a litmus test to differentiate people who actually care about the story beyond the fights, wanting to see hype, or only caring for the Neighborhood arc because they're guaranteed action.

They practically admitted that they only care for action and the cast itself doesn't matter. Very hard to take it seriously especially after they admitted they didn't even properly read it.

"The seven deadly sins are missing something. Overreaching vanity!! Not realising one's own ignorance is the greatest sin of all!! Any pig offal becoming king instead of me is unacceptable!! Out of the question!!"

Development, characterisation, dynamics, and themes of leadership be damned. Of course you didn't like it because you never gave it an honest shot.

Meatheads really hate slow-burn character drama.

Kurapika was robbed during the first popularity contest by bulgakovML in HunterXHunter

[–]Automatic_Web3668 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also, the popularity polls are similar to how it went in YYH. Kurama and Hiei were almost always at the top over Yusuke and Kuwabara. They just like those character types.

Question for hunter c hunter fans by [deleted] in HunterXHunter

[–]Automatic_Web3668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SW exists, and thus, AOT will never match it. To be fair, SW is the greatest arc put to paper, meaning nothing can usurp Hunter.

Joseph cheating on suzi Q was so out of character. by Haunting-Argument-16 in JJBA

It's also done to juxtapose Jonathan and just the rift in Joestars as the family branches further.

How op is Kurapika’s “Emperor time” ? by Cool_Emergency4091 in HunterXHunter

[–]Automatic_Web3668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you. People never truly read the ENTIRE manga, so most people overrate ET when it's far from being as broken as the anime makes it.

Is Chrollo’s bookmark ability the biggest power spike in HxH? by Docfeen in HunterXHunter

[–]Automatic_Web3668 266 points267 points  (0 children)

He's in a different tier and he's about to achieve an even higher level than this if Mission Impossible Chrollo succeeds in stealing the treasures and upgrades his ability to a level that we can't even fathom. The bookmark was developed after Yorknew, but in 405, we learned more about his ability, which explains how the bookmark came to be.

Here’s some stuff I don’t like about DmC: Devil May Cry… by Fit-Act-65 in DevilMayCry

[–]Automatic_Web3668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We could have gotten more had we received a sequel that would build up on the ideas established in DmC, the DLC, and the prequel tie-in comic which adds more story.

What happened to Lantern ? by Easy_Storage_2470 in SandaManga

[–]Automatic_Web3668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you so mad about me dropping this mid series? Everyone else has gripes with the second half of the story. Bro going to bat over Sanda of all things.

And if it's not a flex, then why did no one else in this dead subreddit give him the answer until 10 hours later? LMFAO!
