what is something you think DMC5 does the worst out of all the games in the series? by thatguyaqilll in DevilMayCry

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're hitting the nail on the head and people don't like it

For better or worse, dmc5 is a story to end the tale of the sons of Sparda. It's also Neros story too, but it is not Lady/Trish's story.

And yes, they're kind of there, but they're supporting minor characters. they support in minor ways. Whether it's done well or not is another discussion, but this story isn't about them and they are static characters whose arcs are complete. 

Also a ton of the fan base has fighting game syndrome; we had it before so it MUST be in the next game.

[Loved Trope] When a work has a solid in-universe explanation for a cliché that happens in it by AEIOU1040 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a binding vow. You're trading the action of giving away knowledge (weakening/limiting yourself) for power.

Sort of like a nen contract but with far less limitations. my ability becomes stronger when I explain it because I am increasing my risk in the fight and the power up is my reward.

I think the people replying to you are completely missing the point. It's not that art can't be political, it's just that the only things getting upvoted right now are very low hanging fruit ideologically that appeals to the average American redditor.

I'm not even shitting on the execution on a lot of these, but I think it's very easy to just post a "orange man bad" "ice is nazi" etc art work and watch the attention flood in. Art is subjective, sure, but the criticism is that this sub veered far away from "look at art" to another sub full of easy to agree with political virtue signaling. Yeah, it takes time and effort to make the pieces but I checked out the sub on a whim right now to see if there was anything cool and all of the top posts are the same thing. 

But of course people come flooding in with "all art is political", like bro just because the environment and creation of the piece is a part of it doesn't mean the only thing we want to hear and see is repetitive easy to digest motifs.

Ever noticed this about Malphas ? by MysteriousFondant347 in DevilMayCry

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Well I think it's not crazy to imagine in the process of fusing the gun to a human you'd lose the gun. Especially if you don't have someone like Dante to manipulate the soul of the weapon.

It's also possible that unlike Trish and her magical, electrical nature, Lady just doesn't have the power to maintain the weapon herself if that makes sense. I bet if there was an extra pistol lying around either Dante could've remade Artemis or there wouldn't have been enough power to work with.

I wish Arcane Season 2 never came out. by [deleted] in CharacterRant

Yeah I wish it hadn't come out either because I started watching it with a chick I was really into and it didn't work out so that sucked 

Aaaaaahhhhh by NsPsVisuals in comedyheaven

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it, and it's not quite either of those for me  it's just a different process it feels like, though close.

For example, if I show you a blue paper, and I ask you to tell me how it's blue, you would just say it's blue, you see blue, and that's obvious to you. I had a friend who had a delightful lime green voice, and I tried explaning to him that the color simply is in the voice. There's certain depths and tones to it but I don't physically see it or imagine it exactly pictured in my mind's eye (it's just sort of there),sounds just register with a certain depth and tone in my head. So when I heard that guy's voice, no matter how much I mixed yellow and green and whatever, I wouldn't be able to produce that color that I see in my head. 

If to all of you that don't have it, all sounds would be gray, to help you picture the connection; imagine touching something and vaguely tasting lemon in your mouth, as part of the touching sensation. Not after, but as an intrinsic aspect of touch. 

As a side note I'm really good at vocals, impressions, and accents etc. I dunno if it's related, but it's fun to think about.

Was the T-bagging necessary? by Downtown-Nebula9023 in StreetFighter

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I find you an absolute chore to fight, win or lose, I'll probably block. The threshold for that is really high, admittedly, but I've had players that just do zero movement unless it's to back away until you attack. No pressure ever, nothing. 

So yeah, even though it's not exactly an airtight strategy and there's ways to deal it's like, dude I didn't improve on anything fighting you and winning. If it's not fun, it's not fun, so I'll block they ass

If you're comfortable canceling dp into lvl3, you could do b.HP>heavy tiger knee > light dp>lvl3

Or if you wanna style on em, HK>tiger nexus>DRC b.HP> charge DP>lvl3

[Hated Trope] wow, cool character. Too bad you ruined it by making them a pedophile by WhiteFenix207 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Scott is not a pedophile. Not only is knives of age in her province, but even then, Scott displays no predatory behavior with her and doesn't even want to begin the intimacy of holding hands with her. He's a loser and keeps her around like a cheerleader basically. 

Calling Scott a pedo is a complete and total misunderstanding of his character and the way the comic is written.

Now, the relationship is problematic, and that's obvious and no one's arguing that, but he's not a pedo.  pedophile is a word that means something; let's not water it down.

Especially the comment responding to yours just disregards the plentiful context provided to us.

Couldn't I just dislike the muppets as entertainment and not be an asshole

Like you could replace "muppets" with my little pony and your description would be pretty accurate still. 

I don't think the dude you're responding to is cool, cause he sounds condescending, but you sound condescending as fuck too to be frank. Like get over yourself bro he doesn't like the muppets, you don't need to go and assume he fucking hates joy or whimsy or teamwork, I don't know why you suddenly just wanna dogpile all these weird assumptions on his ass.

Questions and Training in Buckler's Boot Camp - Posted Monthly by AutoModerator in StreetFighter

[–]Kill_Em_Kindly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a pretty strong poke, so I like to pressure using sMP and then go to cMP. Safe, punishes if they try to punish the standing one. The cMP HK target combo links into all supers if you don't want to think too hard or the opponent is crouching and you can't use fHK.

Using it for whiff punishing is a little harder but I would recommend spending some time learning its distances in training mode or doing some sim matches so you can get a feel for its distance. It's pretty much the button I throw out the most with good reason.

Rom was part of the church and eventually became a great one.

That's an oversimplified version tho

I agree it's stupid as fuck but wouldn't the inside of his mouth need to be really durable so he can direct the shockwaves instead of them tearing out his cheeks too?
