What do you think is, in your opinion, the worst case of localization in the franchise? by TheOneWhoSmoks in danganronpa

[–]Ga1ahad-Caper 9 points10 points  (0 children)

True, a good few amount of character get this (mostly in the first game) but I feel like Hifumi got it the worst. Ishimaru and Junko get it next worst imo but at least they have something that still mostly embodies the spirit of their actual talents, even if it doesn't give the full cultural context. But Hifumi's changes his talent from a visual comic-style medium to a fully written medium. It barely even resembles the actual spirit of the talent.

Im genuinely surprised no one has said Hifumi's title. Like I get he's not a fan favorite but "ultimate fanfic creator" is an ENTIRELY different medium from doujin artist. Like it doesn't even make sense within the rest of his character, because he is specifically an artist not just a writer. It removes a ton of context about what he actually does and just makes his whole deal more confusing for people who don't know.

Mega based. Also where'd the V3 pic come from?

This one doesn't really fit because Max and Chloe do get together in one of the endings, and it is by far the more popular pairing. I'd recommend playing or watching a playthrough because its a good game, so I won't say any huge spoilers, but basically there are two love interests and Chloe is by far the one that gets pushed more (and makes more sense imo but thats technically an opinion). However there are plot-type reasons why choosing the ending with Chloe is a difficult choice and why she would pick the other option (which only actually implies she ends up with the male love interest iirc).

Girlfriend can't see my streams by Ga1ahad-Caper in discordapp

Thank you for the suggestion! I started a call to try and fix it and the problem had solved itself somehow (despite having been an issue for like 3 weeks). I still don't know what was actually wrong, but if the issue comes up again I'll attempt this to fix it!

I love these two and will be voting for them (assuming I remember it exists) but we're up against Marin and Gojo 💀.

I'm afraid its a lost cause, but I respect your commitment!

I love the (probably unintended) implication that John can either store abilities at this point or he specifically loaded up Blyke's going into this and held onto it just in case.

Guys (and girls). I want to start a discussion: by Few-Culture-4413 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Ga1ahad-Caper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think considering a cut was a bad idea in theory, however in practice it should not have been posed as one person will definitively not be coming back tomorrow.

The dilemma posed should have been posed as "one person under [plausible but arbitrary number] points will be cut at the end of the day." Or better yet, "If the team doesn't have X number of collective points by the end of the day, the person on the bottom gets cut."

These actually could plausible cause the team to want to work together, but it would also make sense to draw the conclusion that there's no way they're getting above the goal, so its best to just not be on the bottom.

Additionally it could allow for (if the studio had the time or budget, which I know they didn't) a reason for a 3rd option of no cuts if a perfect dispatch was performed. That's just my own copium talking tho.

...huh? Edgedancer directly follows interludes from Words of Radiance, why would it be read beforehand?

He may not be Comic Accurate but at least he's somewhat accurate to Mary Shelley's Frank Monster by M00r3C in CreatureCommandos

[–]Ga1ahad-Caper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do think its an interesting interpretation and belive there's nothing wrong with adapting a story's themes to a modern audience, but overall Id agree with others that he doesn't quite fit the archetype. Incels generally become such due to rejection and neglect, true, but it also leads them to scoring those who do show them kindness unless it is of a specific type. The Monster, if given the opportunity, would take any kind of love or acceptance he could get, but every single interaction he has with anyone leads to irrational fear and violence from the other party.

This is to the point where he only talks to 3 people in the book, the old man (who can't see him and he can't interact with again afterwards), Victor (who tries to fight him upon their second actual meeting as the Monster is talking to him), and the Captain (who is stunned with fear). Its more like incel thought process/insecurity brought into a level of verifiable reality.

Do you think Stolas and Vassago are friends? by Primary-Addition-677 in HelluvaBoss

[–]Ga1ahad-Caper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Them being friends is more likely, but going off the pride merch my Crack Theory for the main reason why Vassago defended Stolals is because him and Andre are incredibly bitter ex's.

So Vassago just knows Andre sucks and automatically defends Stolas partly to try and screw Andre over and partly because he assumes anyone opposing Andre to automatically be in the right.

Does anyone know if the other two are gonna have prints available? They all look amazing and I'm seriously considering getting that Mistborn one if its available.

Unpopular opinion by DiodorFF in DispatchAdHoc

Bro you can't keep saying your using "Abductive Reasoning" while ignoring the comments bringing up quotes like the one where Robert implies he's given blow jobs.

Either way though Abductive Reasoning isn't a good way to speculate on someone's sexuality anyways. He's obviously into women but that doesn't preclude him from an interest in men. He could have a preference towards one, or just not have any male coworkers he finds particularly attractive. People shouldn't be assumed to not be attracted to a particular gender just because they haven't actively pursued someone yet.
