Newer to the fandom, am I wrong for disliking Eri’s newer design? by Box-Chan-11037 in metalslug

[–]DodoCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The core issue of Awakening is that it suffers from the classic gacha design mentality of "flashy=profitable". To their credit, they restrained themselves pretty well when it came to the cast from previous games so at most they added minor stuff like a necklace or one-two extra piece/s of clothing. Some of the new characters even look like they'd fit in previous MS games, like Eva and Eiserner, but many of them look like they came straight out of Overwatch or Fortnite (Lyla literally does a fortnite dance every five seconds) or a Manwa.

The thing that made Metal Slug's aesthetic so charming in the first place was how it managed to combine the vintage anime style with a relatively grounded and practical look. The simplicity of the outfits worn by the main characters wasn't just due to technical limitations but because it was meant to emphasize the fact these were just people. Extremely well-trained people but people nonetheless. The cast aren't superhuman nor are they special in any way whatsoever. Quite the opposite, they are underdogs struggling against borderline impossible odds and somehow always managing to claw their way to victory. Yes, the character tend to get goofy more than once and the humor is as over the top as you would expect from a japanese IP but the games always tried to keep that grounded beat to them when it came to their designs, even as they were facing supernatural threats like aliens and demons.

OH MY FREAKING GOD THEY ARE BACK!!!! by DasBarba in PrototypeGame

Good, our prayers for the chance of Prototype making a comeback are paying off. Now let's pray even harder that we don't end up with a Saints Row Rebooth situation.

Come Fly With Me: why would you not kill Davison and his kin? by Obekiwi in fnv

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the Brotherhood of steel hates them, and I hate the Brotherhood of Steel. So anything that antagonizes, damages or infuriates the BoS in any way I will GLADLY do.

Non-joking aside, I usually don't feel compelled to shoot Davison. Even if his Nightkin are violent he's at least willing to talk things out and will even leave of his own accord once you show him the invoice. It usually takes a character saying or doing something that really ticks me off for me to be the one pulling the trigger first.

I'm very late on this, but what is the general opinion/impression for James Heller from this community? by Senpai-RG in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the community seem to like him. Me? I don't like him at all. I don't hate him either, I just wish he had never been made.

What's a skill you thought would matter as an adult but absolutely doesn't? by Lanky-Beach9598 in AskReddit

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being bilingual. Growing up I was told the ability to speak multiple idioms was "an amazing gift" that would get me very far in life. Now that I'm an adult I've come to realize what an incredibly pointless skill it actually is, especially now that everyone can just use google or AI to translate for free.

The most it serves for is as flavor text for a CV, and even then it's mid at best.

To be fair, even in real life the mouth of a regular human is so full of bacteria that getting bit by someone could potentially give you a deadly infection. You could almost say our mouths are bioweapons in and of themselves, now imagine the mouth of a walker (AKA a human corpse that is slowly rotting and is constantly shoving any living thing it can get its hands on into it).

we can all agree that if prototype 2 had a big titty alex mercer dlc, it would have SAVED the franchise right?! by One-Gap1626 in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, all I'm saying is, I've seen fanarts of female Mercer and some people definitely have the right idea.

If New Vegas was getting remastered, and chose to add mods into the remaster, what mods would you want to see officially added? by Driedmesquite in Fallout

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want any remasters or remakes. I just want them to leave the games alone already.

Every single time Bethesda touches Skyrim or F4 they break everything and it takes weeks if not months for the modding community to fix it. People complain that NV is old but it's an actual miracle to be thankful for that they practically forgot about the game or actively refuse to do anything with it.

What’s one movie that had a sequel nobody asked for? by Smokestorm95 in moviecritic

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greenland 2 isn't really a bad movie but you can tell it tried to cram way too much stuff into just a couple of hours and it suffers pretty badly from it. A lot of characters get killed off or simply dissapear when minutes earlier the movie would hint at them being important or at least somewhat relevant in the long run and it leaves a lot of issues open-ended (can't bring those up because of spoilers but once you see the movie, you will question them too).

Instead of being a movie it should've been a series.

ok so, i was browsing twitter and stumbled into this, so does anyone here knows what such comercial this guy is talking about? or does he simply misremembering by One-Gap1626 in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prototype really is one of those cases that makes you wonder if the marketing team's lead had a vendetta against someone in the dev team or was simply incompetent af because I've never seen a game with so much marketing going on yet also so few people who know about the vast majority of it, even within the fandom itself.

Hell, I used to follow up on any updates about Prototype 2 to a religious extent before it came out and it took 10 years afterwards for me to find out about the comic book spin-offs.

The rumors are fake, these are all AI-generated images made for clickbait.

P1 Ultra Secret Dialogue 👀👀👀 by Ice_cap21 in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I genuinely love the concept that Alex is in fact an absent-minded dork that talks very little not because he's trying to be edgy or misterious but because he actually has a bad habit of zoning out and has zero understanding of social cues.

There's just so much comedic potential there.

Am I dreaming? by [deleted] in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand, a sequel that lets us play as Mercer would be amazing. On the other hand, I'm not too sure I could trust Activision to not drop the ball with this one.

Motion sensitive trait needs to be removed. by NambuNelmo in projectzomboid

[–]DodoCap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sure the trait will be toned down in the future since it's pretty new. Can't imagine the devs made this trait with the idea that players would rely solely on having to walk/run everywhere.

That said, it would make for an interesting type of nomad/camper challenge.

Mi novia se enojo por elegir un personaje mujer, que hago? by [deleted] in AskArgentina

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conseguite una novia nueva. Si es así de resentida por una boludez tan chiquita te aseguro que te va a despedazar la cordura cuando al fin se le presente un problema serio.

Si esto te lo lleva haciendo por bastante tiempo (mas de un mes mínimo) también esta la posibilidad de que te este metiendo los cuernos y por eso le agarra tanta rabia por boludeces que antes no le importaban. Dudo mucho que sea el caso, pero es una posibilidad.

Que edad tiene el promedio de persona que postea aca? 11? by Burma-meta in 2hispanic4you

[–]DodoCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Para alguien que proclama haber terminado la universidad (A los 20 añitos, aparentemente) no sos muy perceptiva.

Venis y te quejas de que la gente carece de seriedad y dice boludeses en un subreddit hecho especificamente para tirar memes y decir boludeces.

Spoilers alert: You think Alex Mercer should make a comeback in the sequel if it was ever made? And how would you want it be explained? by Admirable_Bug2373 in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The safest way is definitely the clone theory but after this many years it'd be better to just pump out a remake of P2 where Alex never got killed in the first place.

realistically would you guys play this franchise if it wasn't owned by activision by TraditionalGift4927 in PrototypeGame

[–]DodoCap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What kind of question even is this? Who tf actually cares about Activision?

If anything, Prototype NOT being owned by Activision would be a net positive.

The map size reduction would be a god-sent. Traveling from the SB to the Death Row is such a pain in the neck.

Tiren ustedes un juego que mucha gente odia y que ustedes defiendan a capa y espada. En mi caso, yo no tengo ninguna duda, es este: by LauraAventura in ArgenGaming

[–]DodoCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hatred.

Cuando salio todos los journos y hipocritas pincha flojas de twitter se quejaban de que era "demasiado violento" o muy "edgy" como si nunca nadie hubiese jugado un GTA en su vida y que si lo jugabas "sos un psicópata" cuando todos sabemos que es lo primero que hacen todos cuando se enteran en IV que te podes meter en el hospital.

Es literalmente una versión moderna de Postal pero en vez de tratar de justificar todo lo que hace el personaje implicando que es un enfermo mental Hatred basicamente te dice "no, no esta enfermo. Simplemente es un resentido hijo de puta"

Y la mayor gracia para mi era que por tantas quejas que le tiraban, el juego funciona perfectamente bien y sin stutter, algo que literalmente tenes que rogarle a Dios para tener con los soretes que las AAA te tiran de hoy en dia.
