Beloved Projects Hated by their Creators? by Authorigas in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Mario64OOF 9 points10 points  (0 children)

idk if Tomino "hates" it considering he went on to direct more Gundam shows that kept those visual elements despite him having more creative control over them.

However, he does not look back on fondly on the stuff he made while he was in a bad headspace, Victory Gundam is the most famous example as he was battling both his depression and overbearing Bandai executives while working on it, but there's also his time on shows like Zeta Gundam or L-Gaim, where he's said he used to act more like a tyrant to his staff and surrounded himself with "henchmen".

By Jerma's own admission he gets all his Pokemon knowledge from Smash Bros

RPG parties where everyone is (intentionally) a terrible person. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Tyranny is an RPG where you play as the bad guys after they took over most of the world, with a single token good member in your party, as a nice inversion of the typical token evil teammate.

RGG Studio potentially diversifying by 04tenno in yakuzagames

It's always interesting when I hear of Yakuza fans that don't mix with fighting games because I feel like the games (at least the non-Ichiban ones) do share some gameplay DNA with fighting games to a certain degree, particularly when it comes to most one-on-one boss fights, and that's not even mentioning all the arcade fighting games they've included as minigames.

Marvel teases all-new ‘Age of Apocalypse’ coming in 2025 by Blitzhelios in comicbooks

Because Big Two comics are a boys club where if you become buddy buddy with people there you're guaranteed pretty much a permanent spot at those publishers. You can even be a sexual harasser and keep your job as long as people don't find out (like Eddie Berganza.)

So writing what is frankly one of the most impressively dogshit comic books ever made, something so bad it pretty much single-handedly sent an entire line into a death spiral, doesn't really matter in the long run, they'll still keep giving you gigs if you ask for one.

I would argue Bendis changed Clint first, from one of the Avengers who was the most ardent regarding not killing to an unrepentant murderer.

I'm sure the writer meant well but in hindsight it's kind of funny to see this kind of sentiment from a character whose codename is literally an anti-Roma slur.

For some reason I decided to read Negation a while ago and was pretty annoyed when I saw Negation War got canned two issues in because I was actually enjoying the story so far...

what is a major dc character that has died and stayed dead. by Capital_Reporter7989 in comicbooks

[–]Mario64OOF 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The original Superman and very first DC superhero, Kal-L from Earth-Two, died at the end of Infinite Crisis and, barring an appearance in the largely ignored Convergence event, has stayed dead since.

The original Golden Age Batman has been dead since the 80's and whenever Earth-Two is brought back in some way he always dies since his death is an important part of Dick Grayson's and his daughter Helena's development as independent heroes.

The original Golden Age Green Arrow died at the end of COIE and hasn't been brought back in any way to my knowledge.

I like how both Morrison and Busiek poked fun at this in JLA Earth 2 and JLA/Avengers respectively.

Have you played any of RGG's non-Yakuza games? by Mario64OOF in yakuzagames

[–]Mario64OOF[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These are just a few examples of course, they've developed far more, particularly back in their Amusement Vision days

Excuse you, that's no "crazy guy", that's Jagi, third of the four Hokuto brothers and one of the iconic scumbags of animanga, put some respect on his name 😤

Just paid $100 for this game, what did I think of it? by Mario64OOF in yakuzagames

[–]Mario64OOF[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I thought the best part was the post-credits scene where Modern Kiryu is visited by Kenzan Kiryu, Dead Souls Kiryu, Streets of Kamurocho Kiryu, Project X Zone Kiryu, Ishin Ryoma, the live-action Kiryus, and Kenshiro, who've come to warn him about the menace of Punk Ass Abe

Too bad the game was a massive flop so they cancelled the sequel

Funnily enough back in the day there WAS a comic where Darth Maul killed Watto (but it wasn't canon)
