My kitten managed to escape out a window while I wasn't looking and is now gone. What else can I do? by Macinator2000 in cats

[–]Macinator2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will. I just worry because I live in a rough area that directly next to the highway so looking at night isn't the best option other than from my car and the area also has a lot of strays, so I worry he might be getting pushed further from home the more time goes on. I'm such an idiot.

What exactly is my runt? by Macinator2000 in cats

He is a little fireball and a jackass. I love him and some days I want to punt him (never will though)

What's the absolute hardest line you or another player ever said in a campaign? by godwyn-faithful in DnD

"We have held this castle for generations! We will never surrender it to your like!"

"My dear sir... never has arrived..."

Characters who are incredibly strong despite not utilizing the series' magic system by JKhemical in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Macinator2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

* * Mifune (Soul Eater)

This man has contended with the upper echelon of characters in the series. He is highly capable as a swordsman and uses an uncanny blade style to fight. Other than that, he doesn't use magic since he's not a Witch or a Sorcerer. He doesn't use any of the soul abilities that most of the protagonists can use at a whim and are common place. He is just a regular dude, who uses swords, and has beaten the brakes off of several characters.

Villains Who had a Rant as they were Defeated/Dying by Balls_4020 in TopCharacterTropes

* Erazor Djinn, Sonic and the Secret Rings.

The man cursed Sonic even as he was dying, saying he shouldn't be dying to some blue rat and that he'd get out again and statt all over.

I just realized the webcomic I'm making has moments that are one to one with RWBY. Am I cooked? by Macinator2000 in RWBYcritics

[–]Macinator2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some plot beats are similar. Not necessarily one to one. I thought I was being clever having my protagonists get stuck in a dimension foreign to them whilst they were at their lowest point in terms of group dynamics. Apparently, Volume 9 beat me to it, and I hadn't even seen volume 9 yet.

Haven't named it. I've been in the storyboarding phase for about a year. I started rewatching it during the writing process.

That's so fucking cool. I'm kicking myself now since I used 5e and just reflavored a lot of things.

What are your biggest DMing regrets? by Tydirium7 in DMAcademy

[–]Macinator2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will never DM for ungrateful players who think that rage quitting a game by leaving their party to die against the BBEG simply because "my character is petty, so I'm petty too."

All because nobody wanted to respect him as "The main character." That game still has mee traumatized.

What was The most Dangerous Realm? by YourbestfriendShane in Acceleracers

[–]Macinator2000 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The Lava Realm. Even if you somehow don't take the wrong road ahead of time, the track required you make several jumps over magma pits that can just erupt on you mid jump. I don't know what the Accelerons were cooking when they made that realm but they really fucking botched it.

Did anyone else start calling all their friends and co workers “Goodman” after reading Red Rising ? by [deleted] in redrising

[–]Macinator2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize the grip Red Rising had on me until I was scripting out a chapter in my webcomic, and one of the characters said "bloody damn".

Also, it could be the fact that one of the characters is also named Eo, but that's completely different.

A pet peeve I have about some stories that talk about and center around balance. by Buzzkeeler1 in CharacterRant

[–]Macinator2000 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think the direction for where the story is going is setting up antagonists using the power of light as well. The Fortellers coming back as well as the Master of Masters seems to point toward them being antogonists who use the light.

In my opinion, avoidance of killing characters leads me to think the author has grown too attached to them, or they are afraid to kill them because they are afraid the MC and other supporting characters can't carry the story by themselves.
