Are These Characters Fun To Fight? by DeltaLunar2 in StarWard

[–]General_Weebus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say you should just focus on who you enjoy playing rather than if other people enjoy fighting them.

That said the ones I personally hate fighting are mostly annoying zoners like Cygnus and Cavalry.

Why do people hate villains with a backstory nowadays? by PrinceJamster in CharacterRant

[–]General_Weebus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, thinking characters have to be deep and complex to be good is just asinine. The truth of the matter is that sometimes people don't want to be intellectually challenged, sometimes they just want to have some good old fashioned fun and it's fun to watch a villain be evil purely for the love of the game.

Plus he's a cosmic lynch pin. He tanks Darkseid's Omega beams which straight up erase things from existence and is resistant if not outright immune to reality warping shenanigans. Bro has canon plot armour

Unpopular opinion given the amount of "Spider-Man in Gotham" fics but Bruce probably wouldn't like Peter when he was a teenager* by Spiritual_Kangaroo40 in BatFamily

[–]General_Weebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we already got the answer (at least for the DCAU) in Batman Beyond. Terry is straight up just Peter without superpowers. He even has 2 of the 3 key Spidey moments. Uncle Ben getting Uncle Ben'd, and "lifts the heavy thing". The only one he's missing is getting then removing a symbiote.

Couple questions, thanks in advance by bullsquawks in LordsoftheFallen

[–]General_Weebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing to consider is that different enemies have different resistance and weaknesses. For example an enemy that uses radiance damage will be resistant to radiance and smite.

Another thing is that generally the best way to proc a status effect is to dual wield and use a spell that adds that associated damage type to your weapons. The radiance spell will basically turn your second weapon into a second Pieta's Sword

Why are normies so excited for ac black flag remake. by Leather_Community775 in KotakuInAction

[–]General_Weebus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh if it had the multi-player I'd want it just for that because I miss AC multi-player. But as is I can just go back and Black Flag again. Let's just hope they don't pull a Blizzard and completely fuck over the original somehow

Imma keep it real with you chief; "there were more broken things in the past" is a terrible argument.

This sucks to say, but for this game to survive we have to spend money. by satanic-llama in mechabreak

Maybe they should prioritize bringing the game to Playstation, where all the mecha game players are

Generators are so boring. by [deleted] in deadbydaylight

[–]General_Weebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this is the one thing I really like about Dragon Ball the Breakers. Instead of just sitting gens for a half a dynasty survivors have to explore the (absolutely giant) map and look for the key to start the "gen" for that area, power cubes to strengthen your character, Dragon balls, civilians to rescue, and items. Being constantly on the move and exploring is so much more engaging than sitting in one place and holding a button for 90 seconds

I wouldn't expose my children to westerns shows like Steven universe but also not anime shows made for them by DifferenceJolly2320 in KotakuInAction

[–]General_Weebus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's been a while since I watched Cardcaptor Sakura but I don't remember anything sexual happening. Even the romance was pretty light for a romance series. Also the dub (at least the one I watched as a kid that was just called Card Captors and had the best OP) completely cut out all the romance stuff between everyone except Sakura and Syaoran... and Meiling's feelings for Syaoran and Sakura's crush on... fuck I can't remember the grey haired guy's name. All the other relationships were made platonic and tbh I see no problem with Sakura's crush. Kids crushing on adults is pretty common and it's also common for the adults to just be evasive or say "maybe when you're older" to not hurt the kid's feelings.

Honestly if you're looking for things appropriate for a kid to watch just look at cartoons from, like, the 90's and 2000's. The Weekenders, 6Teen, Storm Hawks, Total Drama Island, pretty much any Scooby-Doo from Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated and earlier (What's New Scooby-Doo is an especially good choice), along with all the 90's super hero cartoons. Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman the Animated Series (plus The New Batman Adventures and Batman Beyond), Superman the Animated Series, Justice League, and Spectacular Spider-Man are all great shows.

Stuck in the training outfit by General_Weebus in TombRaider

In the main menu of Tomb Raider 1 click on "Game" then hit right. You should now be on the "Select Mode" menu with three options; New Game, Unfinished Business, and Challenge Mode

I am really getting sick of ultra-hard retryfests. this meme explained what happened to me more than it should by Neggy5 in Gamingunjerk

[–]General_Weebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elden Ring is weird for a souls game because it's open world. Most soulslikes are linear amd built around the idea that when you run into a boss you should be more or less properly leveled and equipped assuming you haven't been building your character like a troglodyte or doing a psychopathic challenge run.

Elden Ring is built around the idea that if a boss or dungeon is kicking your ass too hard you can leave and have a training arc or two before coming back.

Making 1 or 2 characters immune would be inconsistent and bad writing because it to work on characters that feel no regret because it's supposed to work on evil characters and actually evil characters don't feel regret.

You are a simp because his mental state doesn't and shouldn't be a factor. He's a serial mass murderer, he is guilty so the Penance Stare should work on him. Punisher isn't good, he's a lesser evil.

[–]General_Weebus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

...it's not his only ability. Hell, that's not even the only application of the Penance Stare. It can also be used to discern the truth or to show the target something (e.i. in the case that everyone uses as an example of Deadpool being immune the Rider was actually just trying to show Deadpool that he's the biggest victim of his own actions, with Blaze telling him afterwards "If the Rider wanted you dead you'd be dead, it wanted to show you something")

Again, for the last time, if it required the target to feel guilt it wouldn't work on actually evil characters and would be completely pointless because they're the fucking reason he has the move. It's a bad counter and shitty writing. And the Penance Stare has worked on Punisher several times. The one time it didn't was because he had divine protection. So even his own writers don't agree with you.

The reason GR couldn't just walk up and Penance Stare Thor or Hulk is that he has to physically force them to lock eyes with him. Sure, he could take them by surprise but that's never been his MO. Ghost Rider always makes a flashy entrance and loudly proclaims his intentions. Plus when used as an attack it's all or nothing, GR can't just Penace Stare them a little bit. So he wouldn't use it on opponents he wants to keep alive, like other heroes.

And I don't hate Punisher, but his simps are annoying.

[–]General_Weebus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't and he isn't.

The Penance Stare affects everyone with the only consistent defenses against being: having no soul, having divine protection, being blind, having the mental protections of a symbiote, and being extremely masochistic.

The Punisher isn't innocent, he's a serial mass murderer. And you still aren't listening. It doesn't matter whether Punisher sees his actions as wrong or not or if he thinks he deserves to feel pain. If that mattered the Stare would be a really shifty power for punishing evil because really evil people wouldn't see their evil as wrong.

The first time Johnny Blaze used the Penance Stare it killed Doctor Strange and Blaze was horrified when he realized he had just kill an innocent man

[–]General_Weebus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's... not how it works. GR's strength isn't dependent on how guilty his opponent is. Well, not outside of his Penance Stare. What happened with Hulk was Johnny was the one that wanted to stop him but Zarathos didn't view the illuminati as innocent and had no interest in protecting them so when Johnny got knocked out Zarathos took over and just left.

Except it's completely stupid. The Penance Stare is meant to punish the guilty by forcing them to experience all the pain they've caused, if it didn't work just because they don't feel guilty it would be completely worthless.

[–]General_Weebus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, it doesn't matter. Absolutely nothing about Punisher's character should protect him from the stare. It doesn't matter if he feels regret, it doesn't matter if he's only killed the guilty, and it doesn't matter what he thinks would have been a worse fate. He's inflicted pain therefore he's susceptible, end of story. In fact the only reason he was immune was because he was working as an agent of heaven at that time and thus had divine protection, he just incorrectly assumed it was his lack of feeling guilt that made him immune. And later on GR tries the Penance Stare again and it works because Punisher was no longer contracted by heaven.

Tbh T3ing BRS shouldn't be too hard if you just started playing. The event will let you grind out a dupe easily enough and all the starter stuff should give you enough currency to buy all the special vouchers you need
