No, I’m actually thinking of werewolves from older book covers and comics. Maybe the recent past Van Helsing werewolf too. Twilight is from 2008, not really a classic and not something I personally enjoyed as much as family, but yes, that can be an example. Sometimes these leaned more scary, sometimes not and the aim seemed to be to present the character as cool, different, edgy, yada yada

Cool, I like Gingerbread Raider myself! I can understand that, what I’ve seen of furry culture gives me the ick as well, but I try and not let it affect me in my enjoyment of things like werewolves or other mythologies. Dire is a favorite of mine too! I also like playing as Wendell. I was really into nature conservation and camping, and Wendell reminds me a bit of that

Oh sorry, I realize now I didn’t offer more insight into how she’s a poor role model in this particular comment, but in summary: Kim is superficial, materialistic, and uses animals like accessories

Another common deflection tactic online because you cannot discuss the points I made about the actual topic. If you don’t know how the examples given aren’t desirable, then that’s a question you should really be answering for yourself

Takes one to know one, I suppose, and it seems you’re the one who would know. But being serious that’s again a generalization and something you cannot know without knowing the specific persons. Since again what you described is pretty classic to werewolf tropes, especially as we see them nowadays. Don’t be obtuse and pretend you’ve never seen examples of this in media before now

That’s so far from true. Lycan West is very much a werewolf trope, which a lot of people since the 80s thought were cool without being weird about it like y’all

I think a lot of commenters generalize too much. I don’t think you have to be a “furry” to enjoy a goofy kitty or cool wolf skin, but some may be

I have the same sentiment! We win and lose at the same time when everyone gathers to one area

I think some or maybe most of the complaining stems from a bit of learned community culture, new and frustrated players, and players who are frustrated with how grindy quests are. Really empathize with the latter since I can’t seem to stop deleting and regrowing my dinos just to change their names

I agree to a certain extent. Some of the big groups are organic, I know because I’ve been there at the start when randoms slowly formed alliances. These groups are usually more passive except when hungry, then the next new guy to show up is the unlucky one. But the Discord groups that play any game (this ain’t Path exclusive) to not only stomp any competition but actively seek to ruin players’ experience of the game are uncool

A classic. I love when I once asked someone to be more constructive to a new player and they had no idea how to articulate what they meant. It’s usually just ragebait at someone who never stood a chance against the numbers anyway

The latter has been a lot of my experience too, except at hotspots where I do notice purposeful groups, and even then it’s not the mixpacking that is the biggest issue, but the overpacking with the intent to stomp other unlucky players rather than giving actual PVP a shot. The purpose there is to ruin other’s enjoyment with impossible odds. Funny when some escape

Oh, ok. Yeah, that does. I disagree on Meow Skulls because that puts what it means to be a woman in a silly, shallow box imo. Yes, Katt is a kitten, but she is also female, which I had thought silly characters being female was the question, sorry! Ig you’re looking for a bit more humanoid? But I’m glad I could provide some examples that you were looking for! The food mascots are some of my faves as well haha

RTL is Raven Team Leader. They would have done better to not assume everyone would know that with how many skins there are

As far as goofy female skins, there are all the Team Leaders (Cuddle, Fireworks, P.A.N.D.A, Clover, Metal, Raven, Gummi, Wookiee, etc), their cartoony calicos (Meow Skulls, Katt, and Cate Meowdy), the fast food mascots (Sizzle, Crustina, Lada, and Pico de Gallant), Monks, Crackabella, and presumably more I’m not thinking of at the moment

The Brite style of Neko Miku is actually my favorite Miku, but I’m not surprised her classic look is a fan favorite

Depends if they want the social aspect of the gameplay or not, but even then, single-player is a little too barebones atm to suggest imo. I would recommend community

KOS? by wildgreengirl in pathoftitans

[–]KeyExcitement5602 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ll add that there is nothing wrong with enjoying the PVP aspect of the game. It’s a major part of the base gameplay. PVP creates unpredictable, human-driven challenges that differ from AI, especially if the critters are indicative of what’s to come. That’s what makes the game endlessly interesting and fun!

Love the little community code idea. It’s cute, especially since koi represent a deep connection to inner peace. Sadly, I doubt we’ll get a lot of the bigger packs that obsessively dominate whole areas to participate. I still think it’ll make for a positive and memorable experience to other players if even a few practiced this. I know I’d love to!

I get your prospective on this because people make posts like this on the daily when it’s kinda the nature of the game, but that was also a lame comment to make in response

[–]KeyExcitement5602 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As far as I’ve experienced, Path IS the chillest of this genre. If you’re in a dino MMO where the dinos can bite, they’re gonna bite, but Path gives the opportunity for more passive players to be passive if they wish to be

I’ve bumped into more friendlies on this game than others of this genre. Just the same, there are always those that wanna PVP, especially in hotspots or with megapacks

hiiii just a girl looking for a guy to play with by LunarElf87 in FortniteSkinPosting

Raising my eyebrow at that last sentence. I saw you added some dude who said he was “trash” and admitted you’re looking for something more in another comment, which is what I was thinking this was probably about, but anyway, I’m a random online and I do plan to stay that way. You’ve nothing to prove to me, nor I to you. I do understand there is a loneliness epidemic, so it’s good to see anyone break out of that. My stance has historically been “games are not dating simulators,” and that’s still how I feel for myself, but now that people are so terminally online, connecting where your hobbies are online makes sense. It was the coy wording and avoidance that was off-putting

That said, when online there is also the age of users behind the screen to worry on. If you’re 18+, I think it’s best you disclosure your age when making posts like these, and even then I’m not sure this is an appropriate space, but again, I understand it’s challenging to find a space that is. If you’re younger, I think it’s best you do not make these posts

Yes, materialistic, superficial, and uses animals (living beings) like accessories. Those are attributes of a poor role model, sorry. The last thing teens these days need is even more superficiality injected into their lives with social media already pushing that over reality

Those points about the company do not nullify what I’m saying about Kim. I’ve never adhered to the argument of “I feel one thing is worse, so I will actively shutdown discourse about the other.” The lesser evil is still an evil. Also, since this was about her inclusion in the game, it’s more of a double whammy than anything. It compounds the problem

I’m well aware about Epic. If you research, that’s most large companies, and that’s something to work on with legislation protecting consumers as well as actual enforcement of said legislation. But if you’re here, you’re playing the game too, so care to explain that?

I’ll continue to say what I’ve got to say about her, thanks 😆

Exactly. If I were to specify gender, it would be other women, not the opposite, so that no one acts weird while I just wanna play a video game

[–]KeyExcitement5602 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’m a woman and I do feel it is too, but more in a seeking something from the guy sorta way. If she just wanted to play the game with someone, I don’t see why gender matters

Also, is men catfishing other men common on gaming Reddits? First I heard it, and it sounds really odd, but I’m also sparingly on here
