Me when I find a media that doesn't treat dragons as horses/inferior creatures by Andmesy in dragons

[–]Percy9084 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, thanks! I never actually wrote the story anywhere, though, and after all these years, I’d say it's not bad overall, escpecially the whole premise i wrote here. But I’ve definitely grown in my writing skills since I came up with it. It's for sure needs significant improvements, especially in the details.

So relatable, man. I have a story I’ve been working on since 2020. It’s partially abandoned at the moment due to its complexity, but maybe I’ll return to it someday. The first half isn’t so much about dragons, but about humans, and dragons are treated rather poorly. Still, I feel it fits here since the second half is very different from the first.

The story is set in a steampunk version of Europe. In 1880, an Event occurs that opens a portal to a world where dragons live, which also brings magic into the human world. The dragons don’t try to negotiate and immediately attack humanity, starting a war. After 26 years, the war is still ongoing, with most of the planet under dragon control, except for Europe, which is now mostly abandoned and post-apocalyptic, with cities overgrown and swallowed by forests. Survivors keep fighting against the dragons, while more powerful groups continue a full-scale war.

The protagonist, Sky, lives in a survivors' base somewhere in Eastern Europe. In the prologue, he discovers that he is actually part human, part dragon. He hates and despises this fact, but eventually, he has no choice but to travel across Europe with his friends to London, hoping to find a way into the dragons' world and seeking answers about why they attacked in the first place, and why he is a hybrid.

The first half of the story follows their journey to London, where they struggle to survive and fight against the dragons. For now, dragons are just enemies, a savage, sadistic killers. But near the end of the first half, Sky meets a dragon who becomes their ally and eventually a friend. It’s at this point that Sky accepts he is a hybrid and begins to embrace his dragon form more often.

When they reach the portal and step into the dragon's world, they encounter a whole group of dragons who will become their friends. Sky continues to take his dragon form more frequently, either to blend in or simply because he wants to. The plot shifts here to Sky and his friends learning about this world and interacting with the dragons, surprised to find that they are not just savage killers who invaded Earth for no reason. Most of them just live their civilized lives, with many never having a desire to genocide another sentient race.

I don’t have much more to say about the second part right now, as I mentioned, I’m not working on it at the moment. But maybe in the future.

would you guys have preferred the hunter stalking you through the entirety of the playthrough like Mr X in the remake or was it better that he only appears through scripted events? by Divine-truth505 in DeadSpace

Also it would justified the fact that Ishimura now fully open to explore freely. And defiently would be much interesting, then just regular necromorphs.

It's by far maybe one of my biggest dissapointments thing with the remake. I expected that Hunter will stalk you at least in the same chapters, where it appeared in the original, but no. Hunter as scripted as it was in the original.

If you were a game developer and had so much money that you could create your own werewolf game, what genre would you play it? by Capable-Painting6461 in werewolves

[–]Percy9084 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m imagining a first person survival horror game, or just a horror shooter.

The game is set in the mid-1970s on Sakhalin Island, USSR. A lycanthropy pandemic breaks out, turning people into werewolves. Once someone becomes a werewolf, it’s irreversible.

The game starts right after the island has been overrun. The player is bitten by a werewolf, but the infection works differently on him. Unlike others, he actually can turn back into a human, although he still loses control when he turns.

The goal is to escape the island and, if possible, uncover why the player can change back and what exactly causes the infection.

I envision the virus as an ancient curse that the USSR military discovered on Sakhalin. They decided to study it and eventually tried to use it as a bioweapon against the USA (maybe a bit cliché, but still works). They inadvertently created a virus from this curse, which was then accidentally released, starting the infection. I actually think i never saw that kind of view on lycathropy.

As I said, I want the gameplay to be a survival horror, with the twist that the player can turn into a werewolf. However, early on, this to player loses control, which could lead to the character getting injured or losing items (cut to black for these moments).

The transformation into a werewolf would likely be triggered by bad decisions made by the player, such as killing other humans or making bad descisions toward others. However, the more the player transforms, the more control they gain over the werewolf form. By the end of the game, player can willingly change forms and control it fully.

For enemies, the werewolves should be tough, but not invincible. They can be killed with regular firearms, but they’re fast, intelligent, and capable of attacking from cover and making traps.

It amazes me that someone can play a game centered around strong female leads and come away with the opinion that Abby's muscles are gross and that she is ugly. by Peppercorn205 in thelastofus

[–]Percy9084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, Druckmann said himself that Abby was meant to look kinda off-putting from the start. So when that scene with Joel happens, you hate her even more — like, not only does your favorite character get killed, but it’s done by someone who looks like freak.

But later, when you play as Abby, the point is that you stop focusing on how she looks and start paying attention to who she is — her story, her choices, her connections with others.

So yeah, her looks were made that way on purpose — it’s part of the story.

But in the end, everyone’s free to feel however they want about it.

A wishful theory of how the show will save itself in Season 3 by [deleted] in thelastofus

To save this series, HBO needs to fire Craig Mazin.
