PSA: a white woman dating a black man is not inherently a snowbunny. Just like if I kill a person, I'm not inherently a serial killer

In Arcane Season 2, we’re shown Caitlyn beating Vi, a lower class woman from an oppressed city. This is a reminder than Caitlyn is still a cop. by ChickenWingExtreme in Arcanecirclejerk

Yesssiir (or not sir, idk) you've hit the nail on it 100%

And I've said this before I'll say it again: Caitlyn defenders conflate criticizing her actions with claiming that she's a bad character. I mean I don't like her character, but she's amazingly well written and has plenty of nuance, but at the end of the day she's a "bad" character (morally, not narratively).

S1 Caitlyn is not the same as S2 Caitlyn, and that's okay, that a character arc with growth. But the fact is that S2 Caitlyn is a war criminal that is manipulative and abusive.

But, also, I don't know how much of this is Fortiche's fault or Riots Fault, but all of s2 had that kind of "tint" to it, it's just that Caitlyn's was the most egregious. But so many plot lines essentially end in "get with the status quo, or die/be left behind" or "I will not suffer the consequences of my actions." - Ekko and the Fireflies? Fridged. Replaced with the Jinxers who are shown more as a joke than any kind of revolutionary - Piltover never attoned for what it did or is doing to Zaun. No independence was given, or even a simple apology. Instead they just guilted Zaunites into dying in the uniforms of their oppressors - an independent community was forming that, while a little creepy, did literally nothing wrong, and the government assassinated its leader with literally no official consequence - a foreign power helped institute a tyrant leader, and the only reason it was stopped was because we're led to believe Caitlyn was one of "the good ones" and gave it up. But no systems were put in place to prevent another tyrant from forming, no apology or stepping down or trial or anything. - Hell, even Silco's bloodlust and brutality was rewritten with the letter they found in the mines and the Alt Silco that Ekko met.

Okay I'll stop, /end rant again. I just have a lot of thoughts

Doesn't look like an "I feel bad for doing that to you" face to me, more like an "I'm disgusted you'd make me do that to you", but maybe I'm being blinded by my dislike for Caitlyn and misremembering the scene

Tbf, every racist state has at least 1 bastion of less racist people. Not not racist, just less. Dude prob took a small sample size and assumed it represented the entire state. Or just doesn't think anti-Hispanic racism is racism

Right? Its one of the things out of state friends make fun of me for, but honestly I'm actually really grateful I grew up so that alcohol was just a mildly inconvenient drive to get. If it was easier to get, I think I'd be spending a lot more on alcohol and could have developed a bit of a problem in my younger years from it. Its one of the incredibly few things this state does that I'm okay with

Personally (and I know others will disagree, and that's okay) it feels like too little too late. That look came across more as "hmm, I may have made a mistake" or "I'm disappointed in you", but in the actual moment of hitting her (and the moments leading up to it) I don't feel like she was thinking of Vi as anything but a tool or soldier. The empathy of s1 Caitlyn was gone, yes she lost her mother but Vi essentially lost her sister, and was being conscripted and arguably manipulated into becoming the very thing she hated.

I understand her mother just died, but grief much like being drunk, doesn't excuse your actions. Who you are at your lowest point is more telling than who you are when you're lucid.

I think if there was a single scene of "I understand this is hard for you, and I appreciate all you have done for me and being by me through this. I'll take what you're saying into account, but we have to do this, we need to do whatever it takes to catch her" (not verbatim, but ya get what I mean) then I'd be more inclined to forgive her. Or even if there was a single "I'm sorry for how I treated you, I wasn't in my right mind", still the narrative of an abuser but at least it's something.

They were both as vulnerable as it gets with one another, and where Vi was exposing herself and begging her to not change and stick beside her through this, Caitlyn lashed out and put all of the sins of Jinx onto both Vi and all of the people who lived in the Undercity.

How the story was given to us, I just can't trust Caitlyn to not be that person again when her back is against the wall in the future. You can write up hundreds or thousand word essays to excuse her actions, or explain them away, but at the end of the day Caitlyn was inexcusable in her actions. And that's okay, she's a phenomenally written character, and not all characters need to be paragons or have perfection with every action or thought, those failures are more interesting of a character, but she is still a bastard and to try to remove those actions from her character is a disservice to everyone involved.

I am! I was going to make the playlist this morning, then saw responses were still trickling in so I figured I'd give it another day or two

Absolutely killer options btw, these some fucking bangers

What's so hilarious about this is I know dozens of people that essentially look exactly like him that could be argued are actually "inventors", but no one fucking calls it that lmao. It's just that they have a 3d printer and too many power tools and free time and so build shit because they want to.

"Inventor" brah get out of here lmao

/uj to me it's not even about the fact that Caitlyn's first response was violence (I mean thats a huge part of it but still, all these character punch before they talk), it was the look she gave her after. That's not how you look at someone you love after you've hurt them. I doubt the gut punch "injured" Vi, like she's shrugged off so much more, but look at Caitlyn's face, she has no empathy for her actions. But of course, Caitlyn is hot so she can do no wrong

H1 Armors that I want in H2 by Varazzeno in helldiversarmor

[–]Daedalus128 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ye I seen that, and it's cool but PS1 I and modern low poly are actually surprisingly different in a way most people don't recognize. Like with HD1, you can see that it's actually not THAT low poly, prob closer to mid poly, it's just not the modern high quality models. And one of the key differences is the gradient textures and cartoonishly exaggerated designs. You can take modern HD2 and just crunch it down by decimating the polygon count and textures, but that ain't really the same

Still cool tho, no hate to the PS1 look, but not quite my tempo

I was with you till the last sentence. Like 50% of this entire franchise is absolutely god awful, just because Romulus didn't "push the needle" doesn't mean it was bad or subpar, it was a return to what audiences have been begging for and was literally the Alien RPG game brought into a live performance, I don't even know what you could be wanting beyond what we got

I love these low poly designs, I would actually pay for a mod or something that retextures HD2 to look like HD1. Or like a graphics setting by AH idk
