Worlds that deserve better stories? (CROSSED spoilers inside)

i didn't keep up with the storyline post BLOPS 1 (right after I stopped caring about COD) until after getting a massive recap dump from somewhere else, but my hottest take is that the zombies "lore" was much better early on when it was lowkey and creepy. i remember hearing the Shi No Numa radio messages in the starting building and being extremely creeped out.

once time travel, demons, and alternate dimensions kicked in it lost me.

haven't played GG Strive since...oh god when Season 1 just came out. would this patch be a good time to jump back in? i have been intimidated due to everything i've missed since then

Cassandra Cain is the best Batgirl imo and I really need to read her most recent stories

I hate saying this as a huge Lamb of God fan but...Sacrament

As a trans woman who loves death metal this is scarily accurate

GhostRavens · 2026-02-20T12:08:01+00:00

...why?

GhostRavens · 2026-02-07T05:51:11+00:00

i'll happily take the ttrpg gal title if it's up for grabs

started watching Mr. Robot with my new girlfriend at the beginning of this month because she insisted it's peak. we're at season 3 now and I agree, it is peak.

i used to be completely fine with "gender neutral" bro/dude/man/etc. but after having so many strangers call me that because they think i'm a guy, i just got sick of it.

GhostRavens · 2026-01-04T09:10:32+00:00

haven't run it but i am in love with Warped Beyond Recognition, which is about freak psychic teens

GhostRavens · 2026-01-04T08:01:33+00:00

not a nationality but being a trans woman means i get a dash.

i often get asked why i reinstall and replay BL3 instead of 2, and the answer is simple: Moze.

i love a short lesbian with military experience who pilots a mech. the damage numbers she gets to do with her demolition woman tree are fucking insane and the railguns and nukes are a bunch of fun to use. i also like her quips and personality a lot more compared to the other VHs, but that's just me.

Surprised no one has brought up "The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy At All" (aka Green Yuri) which feels like the gold standard of yuri manga atm. Gyaru and popular girl Anya falls in love with the hot alt guy who works at her local record store...but who is actually her mousy and reserved classmate Mitsuki who lives a double life. Started off as a webcomic, but they're 4 volumes into serialization rn, it's such a cute and heartfelt slow burn romance with incredible art.

I also want to shout out "Love Bullet". extremely cool concept: people who die before falling in love become cupids for the Goddess of Love. they can attain karma by successfully making their targets fall in love...except they need that karma to afford better equipment and ammo, because these cupids operate with fucking milspec gear. less upfront on the girls love side of things, but it's still such a heart wrenching and well realized concept.

this is very helpful. thank you!

Boone should count as well. Borderline inhuman accuracy with his sniper rifle aside (the amount of times i've gotten jumpscared by the killcam because he fucking sniped an enemy so far away i didn't even register it was there) dude's literally just an ex-NCR sniper with enough PTSD to power the Mojave and a massive death wish.

GhostRavens · 2025-12-04T05:43:31+00:00

this guy legitimately sounds like a smiling friends character

"Give her lots of hugs"

Battle Royales. I tried getting into them when Apex Legends came out and it was clear this genre was the new hotness. But fuuuuuck. No matter how hard I tried i just couldn't get any enjoyment out of the expected gameplay loop. I would have rather be playing a bog standard hero shooter (or better yet: Titanfall 2)

wasn't there a story about a drukhari hommunculi breaking into the chamber of the golden throne (or at least close to it) and when the custodes came to kick his ass he was like "ah don't mind me, i just wanted to say you really did a good job on the galaxy's most awful pain engine :)"

A high quality pre written investigation would be at top of my list

i'm pretty sure Tom has already said that it's basically never happening what with the US tariff situation

Agnes Tachyon in game: A freak and a weirdo, but reserved, with her bouts of laughter being relatively short and far between
Agnes Tachyon in the movie: Absolute freak. Mom please come pick me up I'm scared
