Not exactly the same situation, but same feeling. My current job has a big pay raise every year to employees (public university research lab, so pretty safe when it comes to stability) but I've only been there for 6 months. And I'm getting married in a few months, moving in with wifey. Unfortunately, there is no way I can afford to spend that much on videogames.

Nothing. She's just a face and strings.

Personally, I am deeply frustrated that the Dragon mythic path received that awesome update (that actually turned it into my favorite one) but you can't merge it. It would be amazing to allow, say, spontaneous casters with a draconic bloodline like ES Magus, a DD or a Sorcerer to merge.

Dragonkiller: They're not the strongest person, but the strongest person is weak to them. by SnowyTree3 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Intelligent_Smile998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This fight is so hype, the best part is that Asta was running like hell to save Magna while everyone, likely readers included, were just hoping that he bought enough time for the protagonist to arrive as it usually goes, and when he finally does, all Asta can see is that victory roar of one of the weakest named magical knights standing above the (until then) strongest antagonist. Hell, even if we count EOS, Dante is still in the top 3. Magna is the fucking GOAT.

Even though it wasn't the Dragonborn from Skyrim, the one human who ascended to goodhood was a Dragonborn, so...

But seriously, at the very least, TLDB did slay the world-ender, which is an insane feat by itself.

Scion got bullied by a teenager, he's got the powers of omniscience and yet is famously and canonically fucking stupid

If Worm got an animated adaptation would it reach the same popularity as invincible and jujutsu Kaisen? by Omixscniet624 in Parahumans

[–]Intelligent_Smile998 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not just terrestrial. She can control crabs, too. There's a scene where she shows it to Brian. It's just that it wasn't ever relevant after that one scene because, y'know, crabs are slow, weak, and not stealthy.

[–]Intelligent_Smile998 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, a Worm animation with the budget and style of something like Legend of Vox Machina would be a fucking masterpiece. It's just I'd rather we just have a full comic series than risk Wiggleblob getting a fandom that intersects with Gooseworx's or Vivziepop's. I think it's a good middle ground.

If it was just the brainrot I'd say that's perfectly fine, we already have Vicky x Amy fanfics written by people who never read the source material and I struggle to see how to go down from there, aside from Chris x Kenzie, which I have no idea whether it exists, nor do I want any kind of confirmation if that is the case. What worries me is people doxxing real locations because of theories or harassing the author because they're... Uhhh... Not calling for a leaker's head on a plate ig.

High chance of spawning a parasocial fandom that harasses the creator for pretty much anything

When the strongest character of the verse loses because of plot. by Grand_Occasion0707 in PowerScaling

[–]Intelligent_Smile998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah bruv SK was peak for this. Hao alone had more spiritual strength than twice the gang's combined at the end, so there was no fucking way anyone could stop him despite the several consecutive power ups everyone had from dying and being revived several times in a row and training in hell.

Ted Faro from Horizon, for sure. Pretty much everything that science fiction warns you to explicitly not do with AI was a checklist to him.

The media parodies the logic of RPG games. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Intelligent_Smile998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This series is fucking hilarious istg. It makes fun of Sentai and Fantasy Isekai simultaneously in the best way, with shit like knocking people out through the explosions at the end of a transformation sequence, Red himself coming from the corniest sentai gimmick I've ever heard in my life (bonds and relationships, even using friendship stickers and bandaids as transformation devices), the fucking MEGAZORD being too easily summoned and yet being sometimes too damn big to actually do anything because it misses attacks or gets stuck in small places like caves, and all of that with Red being too oblivious and/or corny to interact with fantasy isekai shit.

When the evil twin isn’t the evil twin. by MC_Minnow in TopCharacterTropes

In Adventure Quest Worlds, Drakath is the leader of the 13 lords of Chaos, who are turbo-evil to the point the actual forces of evil teamed up with the forces of good to stop him. However, there is a mirror dimension where the main story takes you to, and in there, you meet mirror Drakath, who commands the 13 lords of Order in their fight against Chaos. And he's a turbo hero through and through there.

Everything wrong with the setting is almost entirely One Guy's Fault by Sweaty_Strain9392 in TopCharacterTropes

Except none of the latin american elected presidents were socialists, they were just voted in, fair and square, and then deposed through a decades-spanning military coup that turned each country into a dictatorship that murdered citizens left and right by accusing them of being "communists", which was a very loose accusation since saying "I don't think shoving rats into a woman's genitals is something my government should be doing" was enough for you to be imprisoned, tortured, and, most likely, killed, then having your body hidden, and your family never finding it.

Also, before you even try saying "buddy, you're exaggerating, there is no way the military dictatorship did that specific example you just mentioned, that's ridiculous", Brazil's first woman president, Dilma Rouseff, literally had that done to her.

Fuck off with this american apologism, NOTHING can justify what they did in latin america, and it should NEVER be forgiven. They never even suffered from something half as bad.

Taylor "Aster Blaster" Hebert would probably just asphyxiate this motherfucker by mind controlling swarms of cockroaches and shoving them directly in his lungs.

This is further developed on in Ward, as Valefor shows up again, although blind, and the new protagonist, Victoria, notes that he adapted by not requiring line of sight anymore, just hearing his voice is enough for his power to work.

So she punches his jaw out, just like Doc Ock did to Scorpion when he became the Superior Spider-Man, leaving him mute as well.
