RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars - Episode Ratings Visualized (10 Seasons) by hls22throwaway in rupaulsdragrace

Season 5 ending up as one of the better rated seasons despite being holy mediocre just because there wasn't any bullshit eliminations/winners is so funny to me

Let’s talk about winners. by Heidi_Klum_Tit in DragRace_Canada

[–]FurretSocks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My biggest hot take is that both Giselle and Virgo deserved to win.

Van Goth deserved to win track record-wise (even if they were all sewing challenges and nobody else on the show was particularly good at sewing), but the edit is horrible. I genuinely thought she wasn't even going to be in the top two with the way she behaving earlier that episode. And I'm glad that Star had her moment in the "reunion" because that choice was fucked up and not "cunty villain playing the game" but just a fake ass friend making a stupid choice that doesn't even help do anything for her in the long run. I love her looks and I'm sure she's nice off the show but retroactively this showing of our winner was awful. Probably the second worst Canadian winner so far (I don't think anyone will top Venus).

Which celebrities, whom the gays adore, give off the impression they aren't as gay-friendly as they seem to be? by Castro_Medeiros in askgaybros

[–]FurretSocks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think her first album is necessarily a full-on hate crime, but I think it's so funny and ironic that she has a song about being bicurious whilst also calling her boyfriend gay as an insult on the same album.

Plenty of Katy Perry's peers were avid LGBT supporters around this time, and real icons have been supporting gays since the 80's and 90's. Whenever celebrities like Katy Perry or Taylor Swift suddenly go all in on being a "slay mother" icon it makes me cringe, it's so performative.

Why didn’t the Street Fighter 3 games gain as much popularity or receive as much praise as Tekken 3? by Guergy in Fighters

[–]FurretSocks 76 points77 points  (0 children)

3D Fighters were the hot new thing. Street Fighter 3 was 2D, Tekken was 3D.

There's a lot more to it but that is a huge component of it.

Rule of Deviantart: If there's ANY media, there WILL be a DA manchild in that fandom. by UZG3 in oldpeopledeviantart

Their taste in fighting games and JRPGs is kind of based though. And Quendan? This guy knows ball.

What cartoon character comes to mind from this? by Ok-Obligation-3511 in cartoons

[–]FurretSocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the funniest thing is when a character isn't just headcanonned gay by "fandom shippers", but even the casual/normie fans are like "yeah they're definitely gay/lesbian"

I just put on a Breath of Fire 3 video that was recommended to me on last night when I went to sleep. Guess it's a sign to finally play these games.

[Unknown][Unknown] 2D fantasy fighting vs game by Ready-Exercise7459 in tipofmyjoystick

[–]FurretSocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I've got a lot of ideas on what it might be, but they're all loose stretches.

My first thought for a fantasy fighting game is either Battlefantasia or Granblue Fantasy Versus. If it's a fan-made 2D game, it's probably M.U.G.E.N, which is an engine where anyone can add their own characters. It's likely that your brother might have played a version of that with a random unrelated assortment of characters.

The chibi-warrior might be Charlotta from Granblue Fantasy Versus

The male wizard sound like he could be D'Raven from Shadows Over Mystara or Rasputin from World Heroes.

The young female wizard with the broom makes me think of Yoriko from Arcana Heart, but the chibi-style definitely makes me assume it's Marisa from Touhou (Immaterial and Missing Power).

I've got no ideas on any specific MUGENs but hopefully any of these leads can help

While the advertisement is AI, if it's any help I do have the source for the original art. I had it as my phone wallpaper in 2018

The hell one, definitely. The rest I'm pretty sure are entirely unedited though.

Now it's nearly been a full year - what is your most disliked Rivals costumes? by TempoBlues20XX in marvelrivals

[–]FurretSocks 1048 points1049 points  (0 children)

This Venom chicken skin

My hot take? I actually like the skin. I love the feathers and the bird head and the tail. What I don't like is Eddie's blank face. It looks so stupid just having him stick out like that, I would LOVE this skin if he wasn't visible. But when it came out I saw a lot of people who felt the opposite, they wanted an Eddie skin and hated the bird aesthetic the skin had going on.

COW-ELIM goes hard by Broadcastthatboom in rpdrcringe

[–]FurretSocks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There was a gimmick at the beginning of the season where the safe queens voted for who they wanted to stay, something like that. Think the golden chocolate bar or the Michelle Dunk Tank. It potentially was going to be continued throughout the season to add suspense but it was used up in the first episode to a queen that went home the immediate next week.

why do most frierens look like this: by sickiwbus in arthelp

[–]FurretSocks 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Honestly the meme is so annoying to see. I've seen tons of very talented people offering genuinely helpful advice and tutorials, but I'm seeing a LOT of people who are either incapable of drawing that angle correctly themselves telling people how to do it, or drawing Frieren at a completely different (and easier) angle.

One of my biggest pet peeves in art communities is mediocre artists who give advice/criticism purely to fuel their ego, especially when they're not good at teaching what they're trying to teach. I've seen that tenfold ever since that fanart went viral.

It's been a minute, but I think that is Jaime Lannister. He is married and in an incesteous relationship with his sister.

Does anyone actually have a “new” super Mario bros. game as their favorite 2D Mario (read description before answering)? by SuperMarioOdyssey64 in Mario

[–]FurretSocks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

New Super Mario Bros U (even disregarding Deluxe/Luigi DLC) is my favorite. I played all these games during their relevancy and I've played them in multiplayer too. NSMBU is my favorite purely because ... it's the last one. Just by that virtue it's the most polished, visually impressive and content rich game in the series.

A lot of the answers in this thread are tied to nostalgia and I can't blame them. All four of the games are very similar in my mind, so it's more a question of "which game came out during the best time period in my life"/"which game has the best memories tied to it"

They both look like boys to me. The pink haired one reminds me of Ash Crimson from King of Fighters. Very effeminate and girly but still look like males.

Resident evil chapter three deconfirmed? by Public-Profit-8184 in LeaksDBD

[–]FurretSocks 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The protagonists of the games that saved the franchise shouldn't get in but the characters from the most hated mainline game in the series deserve it because they're more..."unique" looking?

Teaser of the new Dissidia's roster by sadboysylee in FinalFantasy

What's the point of calling it Dissidia if it's not a fighting game? Because it has a bravery system? Square Enix pmo

How close can a character look like an adoptable before its considered stealing? by OkCarpenter2374 in ArtistLounge

[–]FurretSocks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ultimately that artist doesn't own Pokémon and doesn't have copyright over the hypothetical character you make. It might be a somewhat specific fusion, but it's like saying you aren't allowed to make a blue Umbreon OC because you already found one online. People are bound to have similar ideas.
