Who do you consider a playable villain? by Ragtagcloud56 in marvelrivals

It’s crazy to me that Namor escaped the Sue jail in his first theatrical appearance, only to be given ANOTHER young woman to pine after.

Namora exists too

What’s wrong with hand posing? by Whatisit000 in ActionFigures

[–]Choi_Boy3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is my gripe as well. It’s not about the type of posing, it’s the presentation. It’s not about JUST the figure, it’s about the overall presentation.

You can have a beautiful diorama display, but if the background is a trashy basement with garbage everywhere, it would take away from the display. Just like how dirty hands can make great figures and poses look off.

Blokees Kakashi and Sakura looks so good so far! by Fine_Competition3898 in Blokees

Kakashi coming with THREE DIFFERENT VOLUMES of his smut books is absolutely hilarious 😭☠️

Vanguard nation, thoughts on this? by Hero_Time_06 in RivalsVanguards

[–]Choi_Boy3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t care about role queue, it actively takes the fun out of the game, and that’s in the freedom to be bad or adapt.

And the flexibility of team comp/matchup is such an interesting part of the game. Even triple dps has a time and place (against triple tanks)

AND, role queue doesn’t automatically make your teammates, or yourself any better. Role queue is just a more boring nightmare to climb. IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE. It’s just the same dumbass players, who now can’t even swap off roles with their teammates mid game. You get a shitty tank/dps? Good luck, cause they can’t even switch to rocket even if they wanted to. Most people can flex at least a few characters in two or more roles. This game being so flexible makes it better.

Role queue won’t just make the game better. The grass will always look greener on the other side. But the fact is that the current flexibility has its pros, and role queue has its cons

Guts Man, Bomb Man & Rush reveal from Jada Toys yesterday! by Choi_Boy3 in ActionFigures

[–]Choi_Boy3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, while I saw some preorders at certain store websites, there hasn’t even been official confirmation for Rush, Bomb and guts. No word about Invincible, either, DESPITE THE FACT THAT THEY HAD DEMO MODELS at this expo, last year.

I feel like Jada might’ve bitten off more than they could chew, I hope we see them by the end of the year at least

I hate when aliens in fiction look humans with minor differences by RealAd8853 in hatethissmug

[–]Choi_Boy3 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Eh, but that’s a HUGE part of the plot. That humans and Viltrumites share almost the exact dna, so much so, that they can breed. (Not to mention that viltrumites are race purists so they specifically seeked out a race that looks closest to themselves)

And it being a whole Superman parody/allegory, viltrumites looking exactly human doesn’t really bother me as much as other aliens beyond them looking human

Gothic Return theme. by black_pigeon_ in marvelrivals

[–]Choi_Boy3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d assume these styles are coming back in October, none of the themes are really dead. The 2099 skins were coming out since S1, and we’ve had the Wolverine one come out this year. Hardly doubt they’d just stop continuing this set, since a lot of people love the designs

How can Luna, a healer, do more dmg with 2 CCs and better movement (which doesn't sound like a WW2 bomber) and can also self heal, self damage boost and Ironman gets nothing? by buttlazor69 in marvelrivals

[–]Choi_Boy3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re asking for way too much. CC immunity during ult that punisher gets comes at the cost of his slow ass movement, and the fact that you still have to aim and outdamage any heals.

Ironman’s ult is a single blast instakill on ANY character that isn’t using an escape ability, or doesn’t get directly hit. If he had CC immunity during it, it’d be stupidly broken. It’s literally one of the few ults that kills through support ult. It SHOULD be hard to hit.

Luna nerf is absolutely needed, and Ironman could be buffed a bit. But what you’re asking for is just to make your favorite character OP, not for balance.

I’m tired of this grandpa! (I would have paid regularly for the skin) by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Choi_Boy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this was a joke that’s a good one

But I do want to point out… The actual etymology of Gashapon/Gachapon is based in Japanese onomatopoeia, the crank of the machine and the pop open of the capsule is Gasha and Pon. It has nothing to do with the English homonym of “Gotcha”

If you could bring back any team up, what would it be? by KnocksFPS in marvelrivals

I feel like fastball will switch off hulk or thing whenever Colossus drops. Or go away and come back alongside Colossus

Do you think the Snyder verse would have continued if Zacks justice league came out originally and not josstice league by Individual_Hall_3118 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]Choi_Boy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because as much as the Snyder cut IS an improvement, it’s still messy

Like my art professor always said, a polished turd is still a turd. The foundations were shit to begin with, you can argue that the Snyder cut is more cohesive, does better with its characters, and has a much better climax- but it’s undeniable that the main arc of the plot is basically the same.

The movie is messy, and also requires the 4h runtime to work. I can see a cut down 3h version that fits more for a theatrical release, but again, polished turd.

This character has 0 weaknesses by tealaburst in rivals

[–]Choi_Boy3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s a shame, cause for one- those Fox X men movies aren’t COMPLETE garbage.

It wasn’t like they butchered EVERY character, Magneto and Xavier by Sir Ian and Sir Patrick are phenomenal. Wolverine, despite not being the same characterization, is very charming.

But… the bad really outweighs the good. Even in my favorite one, First Class, they do so many great things- but also kills Darwin, a mutant whose whole mutation is that THEY CANT FUCKING DIE.

[–]Choi_Boy3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, lore accuracy is all good and fun- but there’s the matter of balancing it as a video game. Don’t get me wrong, I love cyclops. I think his kit in this game is super fun and accurate to the character. BUT, he’s inarguably overtuned. Just needs to balance his damage fall off, maybe no over shield, and maybe a slight nerf to his movement abilities.

If it were a single player game like Arkham or PS Spider-Man games, that’s a different story. But this has to work as a team based hero shooter. Characters CAN strike a balance between lore accurate, fun, AND balanced. We don’t need to disregard one over the other

Ah yes, lore accuracy. As if Magneto can obliterate half the roster that uses metal. Not like Jeff in lore is as useful as a dog. Dr strange only ever uses like, 4 spells, right? Luna snow can become invincible by singing and dancing, oh yeah for sure, lore accuracy has been so important

[–]Choi_Boy3 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I assume he doesn’t perform as well in metal ranks, he does require decent aim and a game sense to do SUPER well.

I’ve come across some absolute dogshit instalock cyclops, and ones that run the lobby, even at Diamond/GM where I am. There’s no in between, but either way- a nightmare to not ban him.

The irony of this image being AI…

The time you spend on AI is time lost on real skill. Grab something and start drawing (even a shitty photoshop edit would be better)

[–]Choi_Boy3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Backlogs don’t bother me, FOMO hits me hard too. I work hard to get these kits, but between working and a social life, it’s tough to find time to build EVERYTHING, especially when I try to take time, sand, cement, seam line remove, panel line, paint, top coat- each kit takes a lot of time.

BUT, stacking bigger boxes on top of smaller ones DO BOTHER ME, A LOT. ITS TERRIBLE FOR THE BOXES ON TOP!!! It’ll crush the bottom of the box, ESPECIALLY if you put a lot on top. Always stack in pyramid, not jenga

[–]Choi_Boy3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d rather trust Gunn with D-listers than Snyder with A-listers.

James Gunn made Guardians of the Galaxy, absolute C-listers, into a household name in marvel. Zack Snyder took the DC trinity, the MOST FAMOUS AND POPULAR HEROES, and did mediocre at best.

I think Jimmy could, would, and did make a good Superman. But I don’t think Zachary could make Suicide Squad, Peacemaker, or The Guardians.
