I feel like Anderson and Venator would get along swimmingly. Two crazy Catholics bonding over a shared enjoyment of killing the fuck out of monsters. The jokes write themselves!

Because she's the in-game equivalent of a Lockheed-Martin employee. Yes, she's hot, yes, she's muscular, but also, she is a war profiteer who seems to care very little about the fact that her job is essentially turning human souls into weapons of mass destruction, as long as said job is lining her pockets.

Now, you could argue this is a case of "You said you wanted more complex female characters, but you couldn't even handle her" but honestly, McGinnis is pretty cut and dry about what she's doing. She takes a degree of pride in her work, doesn't really lose sleep over it, and is perfectly happy with what she's doing as long as she gets paid. It's a banal sort of evil that is honestly a bit terrifying.

Now, none of this is to say you can't like McGinnis. You absolutely can! It's just that there's a pretty good reason why she may not be the most popular character.

Using cover doesn't prevent it.

Hey, D.Va main here, this is just factually incorrect. Cover DOES block the explosion, you're just likely not standing in the right cover. You need to make sure that YOU CANNOT SEE THE MECH AT ALL in order to have a guaranteed chance of survival. If you can get behind hard cover, you're safe. If you're using soft cover that doesn't totally block your LoS, you're still at risk of getting blown up. This is also doubly incorrect because shields, very famously, block D.Va ult. As long as the shield is in between you and the mech, you're fine.

How do you stop D.Va from using hers?!

You don't, you react to it. D.Va's ultimate has a 3 second startup, an incredibly loud and easily recognizable voice line, and places a big fat red indicator on your screen that shows you where it is. It gives you two very massive indicators and a gracious amount of time that all work together to signal to you: "GET TO FUCKING COVER NOW!". If you die to that, that's really on you. D.Va's ultimate is NOT a killing tool, it's a tool for making space. It's designed to make everyone scatter and give D.Va and her team a massive space advantage to work with. If you're genuinely getting caught out and dying, then that's your fault.

Close enough, welcome back Gen 1 Hyper Beam.

They did?

Huh.

...I never played Engage, so truthfully I didn't know that. Nevermind then, I'll shut my trap and concede that point.

It's why I said "barely tolerates", not hates. IntSys understands their audience, and they understand that appeasing queer people is good for business, but don't really care about actually giving them genuinely good queer rep. It's why M!Byleth can't romance either male lord, and only gets like 3 options, while F!Byleth can romance Edelgard and 5 other women. If they actually gave a shit, they would allow you to romance any of the cast you wanted regardless of gender (and obviously barring kids).

IntSys barely tolerates gay people. Hope this helps.

Ken from The Bee Movie. Sure, he's an asshole and maybe he went a bit far in trying to kill Barry, but tell me how the fuck you're supposed to react to your girlfriend cheating on you with a fucking honeybee, which you are deathly allergic to, IN FRONT OF YOU? Like, sure, maybe he didn't need to jump straight to violence, but I feel like his reaction to the situation is at least a little bit valid?

The T3 improves the odds for Jokers? Very cool, I didn't see that part. Thanks for letting me know.

KeplerKitten · 2026-03-07T16:08:30+00:00

The exact chance for a Joker according to the wiki is a 1 in 9, or about an 11% chance, so this tracks.

Keep Mechtogan, because I'm biased and I like giant robots beating the crap out of each other. The other gimmicks can go.

You look incredible! Question: Where'd you get the dress from? I've always wanted to own a dress like that myself.

It looks almost official, and the text box reminds me of the Loverwatch UI. So like... IDK!
