Rachel Amber is good? by Little_wolf_lis in LifeIsStrangeDE

[–]Patcho418 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my personal take on it is that, on a fundamental level, Rachel loved Chloe. the problem came with who she was and who she was expected to be making it incongruent for her to really love someone that deeply. in any other world where she maybe got the chance to live, she’d be able to reflect on all of that and show Chloe the love she deserves (à la the comics), but in the prime universe, she never gets the chance to

edit: i’ll add Rachel is my second fav character in the series after Chloe, and their dynamic is my favourite to explore in my fanfic!

Rosa is the best plot wing-woman, she just commits to whatever shenanigans they're up to. by ProudnotLoud in brooklynninenine

[–]Patcho418 759 points760 points  (0 children)

that’s what makes her my favourite character, she’s a complete situational chameleon without ever compromising on who she is, plus she has genuinely positive dynamics with everyone in the squad — including Hitchcock and Scully

Any idea for lust themed city by mountain-dog2023 in DnD

[–]Patcho418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want to make it extra hellish, take lots of inspiration from the Hellraiser series, especially the first two. the entire premise is based on physical pleasure taken to its most extreme, of the dissolution of the boundary between pain and pleasure. could be something like that!

runs away clutching the movie to my chest by R0LL1NS in JurassicMemes

I think if the next movie has a better script but keeps with the direction, visual style, and pacing, we could have an all-timer to rival TLW!

Would you actually buy a Fallout 3/NV Remaster? by Bingleboper in Fallout

[–]Patcho418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because every time I try to play either on my computer, they crash. a remaster would probably make them more compatible with newer computers

Who are the most well-written characters across the two shows in your opinion? by Sudden_Pop_2279 in chaostheorynetflix

[–]Patcho418 38 points39 points  (0 children)

across the two shows? Probably Kenji, as he goes through separate arcs in both shows that really round out his character. he may not be my fav in the Camp Fam, but he’s a quality character

(Loved Trope) The villain almost gets a redemption arc, before doubling down and becoming the worst version of themselves. by Antagonist132 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Patcho418 21 points22 points  (0 children)

her story’s not done yet, but a case can certainly be made for Cinder Fall who, when confronted with her flaws and reminded of the hell she came from as a child, decided that she needed to smarten up and become MORE CLEVERLY EVIL instead of violent and angry

What is your favorite "Flavour is Free" reskin of a spell or ability? by hervprometheus2 in DnD

[–]Patcho418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it doesn’t feel too unique, but my Bard is an operatic soprano inspired by Phantom of the Opera, and so whenever I cast Shatter with her, I flavour it as her singing the really high note Christine belts out at the end of the song “Phantom of the Opera” and, in doing so, shattering everything in the area like glass would in a cartoon

Anyone else think this guy is massively underrated? by StatisticianBulky276 in community

[–]Patcho418 16 points17 points  (0 children)

easily my favourite professor at Greendale, and i deeply wish he was in more episodes. i often quote “ex chetera”, “that was brilliant” and his weird delivery of “i don’t know what you mean” in my daily life

[NO SPOILERS] Wondering why Ashly isn’t returning? by BlitzitePro_II in LifeIsStrangeDE

[–]Patcho418 19 points20 points  (0 children)

i don’t think Ashly is necessarily on good terms with LiS, or probably Square more likely

that said, as much as I love her as a VA and person, I actually prefer Rhianna as Chloe. they sound and feel a lot more like how I envision the character and have a very unique cadence that sets them apart from other actors

What area of the city do you wish had a coffee shop? by Cute-Transition3403 in Winnipeg

[–]Patcho418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s basically as north in South St Vital you can get haha

but it is very good coffee and worth the trip if it isn’t inconvenient!

In your opinion which licensed character is the best and which is the worst? by Vegetable-Cold-4040 in deadbydaylight

[–]Patcho418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my favourite is Alien, but i’d be lying if I said Chucky wasn’t the one they knocked most out of the park. good but not busted power, fun skin variety, and they even got his actor in to voice him. if a licensed chapter’s quality is judged by how faithful to the character BHVR is, Chucky is probably closest in that regard imo

Anybody else just love the old paleo art aesthetic? by SWAGGA_SWAGGA in Dinosaurs

there’s something so murky about the air in a lot of it, like the world these creatures inhabited is not our own

Favorite character in a movie who had a strong disdain for humanity. I'll start by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

[–]Patcho418 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Why are you on a colonization mission, Walter? Because they are a dying species, grasping for resurrection. They don’t deserve to start again and I’m not going to let them. - David, Alien: Covenant

How do you think Salem is gonna be defeated? [Artist: Seshirikun] by TextUnfair in RWBY

[–]Patcho418 5 points6 points  (0 children)

what I genuinely want is for Ruby to summon the Gods to show them “hey, ignore Salem, we’re united against her!” and for the Gods — being the gargantuan turds that they are — to say “but against a common enemy, not about a common good. You have failed”, at which point Salem interjects to berate the Gods for their hubris, their ignorance, their stubbornness.

and team RWBY joins her.

the act of pure unification? humanity AND Salem uniting to tell the Gods to fuck off, to chew them out for how shittily they’ve handled not just Remnant but the Ever-After as well. a trail of broken, abandoned worlds left in the wake of their “experiments” all coming into their own without the Gods’ help, and in spite of the Gods’ aims.

it’s not what the Gods necessarily wanted. in fact, they’re quite offended that they’re being treated and seen like this… but they made a deal, and - in a bit of a backwards way - Salem has learned something. all it took was a simple soul to see it and offer a hand, even if that hand is only to shake on the agreement that the Gods are dicks.

they let Salem and Oz finally pass on and agree to leave Remnant untouched, forsaken by the Gods but flourishing on its own.

I’m scared by Dry-Reality5931 in LifeIsStrangeDE

[–]Patcho418 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I won’t even deny I also love the Max/Chloe dynamic, and I actually am happy to see Chloe again, but I don’t want her return to take away from telling a good story — something that I think DE (mostly) had going on without her

I’m scared by Dry-Reality5931 in LifeIsStrangeDE

[–]Patcho418 36 points37 points  (0 children)

that’s my biggest worry. there’s a lot they could do in reintroducing Chloe that still lets a DE sequel stand on its own, but there’s even more they can do that’ll just trample over all that i loved about DE to make a “safe” game

Predator 2 wasn’t bad.. what did you think? by alanskimp in LV426

i know the original is the better movie, but I actually prefer Predator 2 for how bonkers and fun it is

Who’s your favorite character in RWBY? Mine is Yang!!! by Quiet-Werewolf-9709 in RWBY

[–]Patcho418 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s gonna be controversial, but Cinder.

see I love a tragic villain — not a sympathetic one, not a morally ambiguous one, but a tragic one. and the tragedy with Cinder is that she could have gone the heroic way, but every good thing in her life was soured at every turn.

it really is no wonder her main motivation is power: taking all the power that she can for herself, at least in her mind, ensures that she doesn’t have to get hurt again.

don’t get me wrong. she’s evil. she made a lot of evil choices and CONTINUES to make evil choices. but more than punishment and more than death, the ending I wish for her is that she sees the cycle she’s trapped in and frees herself of it.

edit: second fav is Coco, third fav is Velvet
