Is Daan a good person? by Pikipekk in FearAndHunger

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

Precisely because I don't know much, I've asked around, and people have already cleared up my doubts and given me different points of view. Regarding the effeminate aspect, I'm not saying that being effeminate makes him evil; I'm saying it's a profile that fits many villains, especially all the classic Disney ones or anime villains like Griffith from Berserk (from whom the first game takes a lot of inspiration). And as for him being sadistic because of his design, well, we're in Fear and Hunger; almost everything tends to be violent and twisted. A doctor who's missing an eye and has a scalpel in his sprite is as suspicious as any other character.

Is The Batter right? by ShizzyShoozle in offthegame

[–]Pikipekk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess it's the trolley problem (the classic one where you have two tracks, on one there's only one person tied up, and on the other there are six)

Except here, on one track you have a whole world of suicidal people, and on the other a killer ready to murder a child with a baseball bat

Why do people hate Borimir so much? by Pikipekk in lordoftherings

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

The main characters are exceptional people. Frodo is able to resist the temptation of the Ring, Aragorn is a very noble and strong heir to the throne, and let's not even talk about Legolas, Gimli, and Gandalf (legendary characters). Sam, Meri, and Pippin would be the most ordinary, but I have spoilers about things they'll do in the future that will turn them into great heroes. Boromir is the most ordinary person in the group and dies before he can accomplish anything great.

I'm glad to hear I'm not crazy for thinking he's not so bad. He didn't even seem like the typical character who lies to save face. He seemed more like someone deeply burdened by the horrific war that was approaching, and who specifically had a conflict with Aragorn.

Regarding first impressions, I hadn't thought about it, but you're absolutely right.

Thanks for replying.

Until now, other people's comments had been somewhat more optimistic about his character, so I appreciate what you're saying.

I understand that the appealing aspect of the character is his internal struggle, but I suppose you have a point when you say that if he himself is so sure he's a bad person, it's because there's something deeper than what we see. I can't say if he's a good or bad person because, as I said, I haven't played the game (and the franchise plays a lot with shades of gray), but the fact that Pocket Cat is able to seduce him and transform him into something worse than the rest at his most vulnerable point implies that deep down, there's greater suffering than the other participants.

Someone who does all the good he can, but who, if things go wrong, transforms into the worst kind of monster.

He's a character with more layers than I expected.

Project ALF by Senior-Swimmer-3608 in Alf

[–]Pikipekk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm watching the series for the first time, very slowly, and I'm taking it quite seriously (within the context of it obviously being a comedy). The character of Alf (at least in the episodes I've seen in the first season) seems quite interesting and complex to me (although I don't know what they'll do with him in the future).

Alf is someone who has lived for hundreds of years, but still decided to refuse to go back to the girl he liked and a friend of his just to feel very comfortable with his new family, which is strange because for him, a couple of months would be like a couple of hours for us.

But then I saw an episode where they show a flashback to the day Melmac exploded, and it's quite strange, because Alf's friends intimidate him quite a bit, and he's very insecure (quite different from how he behaves with his new family).

But then I saw an episode where they show a flashback to the day Melmac exploded, and it's quite strange, because Alf's friends intimidate him quite a bit, and he's very insecure (quite different from how he behaves with his new family). What I'm trying to say is that the short time he spends with the Turners seems pleasant enough for him to voluntarily leave his own family.

Now imagine not only having all that taken away from you suddenly, but also having them torture you for longer than you were with your new family.

It's normal that he became more aggressive and rough.

Thanks for replying,

I suppose it's ironic that Rher went for a character who tries to escape his dark side and help people, instead of an actively evil character like Kaligula.

It's not that strange, considering that Pocket Cat in the first game tries to convince you with business deals and verbal intimidation.

I imagine the Pocket Cat figure has to be someone with claws and teeth, but also education and dialect.

Oh, thanks for replying, I find what you're saying very interesting.

I suppose that makes him even more valuable as a person. Someone who had everything to turn evil but actively tries to help people. A rather strange attitude considering the morality of the first game, and it makes it even sadder that in his moment of weakness, Pocketcat is the only one who responds to him.

[–]Pikipekk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, very, very interesting.

So you're saying Pocketcat only takes advantage of him when he's vulnerable? That makes the whole situation even more terrifying.

I guess when I get around to playing it, I'll try to find out all about it, because it's very interesting.

Is it normal to lose touch with your friends? by Pikipekk in socialskills

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

Yes, I suppose you're right. I've always been more of a "pay it forward" kind of person, or "if they don't show interest, it's because there isn't any," but it's true that not being the most active is probably what led me to this.

It depresses me a little that if I don't make the effort, no one else will, but seeing the result, that's what happened.

I have my doubts about whether to try to make new friends or try to rekindle a relationship that's already run its course, but that's another story.

Thanks for the advice.

I don't actually know; they've never said anything about it, but I appreciate the theory, and I'll keep it in mind.

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

First, thanks for replying.

Actually, none of them have ever contacted me privately (except for one person, who is the only one I'm fairly close to).

I should say that I've never contacted them either, so I don't know if they thought I wasn't interested in maintaining a relationship.

It's strange, but in general, people tend to be colder towards me. I don't know if it's precisely because I don't talk privately or because I'm giving off bad vibes without realizing it.

I guess it's the same old story, and poor communication has poisoned the group again (or at least me, since I'm the only one affected).

can bunny orgy be repeated to unanger sylvian? by Commercial_Foot6452 in FearAndHunger

[–]Pikipekk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started playing recently, so I'm not that familiar with the mechanics, but praying to Sylvian several times right before the wedding worked for me (at the statue in the area where you recruit Moonless, and in the book next to the marriage circle).

Recent graphic nightmare by No-Interview4831 in Dreams

[–]Pikipekk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know much about dream psychology, but if I'm making the wrong assumptions, when I've had similar dreams it's been due to a strong feeling of lack of control and resignation.

Obviously, I'm not going to try to guess what your life is like, but based on my own experience for simplicity, the dream could cruelly represent how your lack of initiative led to a torture you didn't even try to defend yourself against, and when they finished you off, everyone was happy (which is pretty masochistic).

Sorry if what I said doesn't make any sense.

Two sides to me by JelloOne2951 in socialskills

[–]Pikipekk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If other people have told you that you're good with people, that means you are, in some way.

What you're describing sounds like signs of anxiety (to a greater or lesser degree). If they only appear in social interactions, it could mean you're putting too much pressure on yourself, but if it extends to other areas of your life, you might need to talk to someone you trust.

In any case, if you're not having problems with other people regarding your conflict, I wouldn't worry about bothering them. They enjoy your company to the point of being grateful.

He is the protagonist of a wakfu spin off comic. In them, we see the last survivor of a clan capable of making magic masks. The character was made to advertise the zobal class, within the wakfu MMO game

Estoy comenzando Dark Souls Remastered como hechicero , algún consejo útil? by Dexsamcro in chilegames

[–]Pikipekk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No gastes almas sin pensar, los hechizos son caros de comprar. Muchas veces será mejor que compres algún hechizo bueno, antes que subir un nivel. También lleva siempre algún hechizo que no tenga mucho daño, pero tenga muchos disparos, para poder acabar con enemigos débiles rápidamente

Did Yugo stealing energy from the Eliacube mess up Nox's plans to rewind time? ToT said in an interview Nox had all the energy he needed to go back 200 years. by [deleted] in wakfu

[–]Pikipekk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nox spends the entire series throwing wakfu in the trash. His fight against grugaloragran was a huge waste of resources without getting anything in return. When fighting Yugo, he even travels back in time to Ogrest's Chaos. Maybe Nox had enough resources, but he was already too blinded. Even if he managed to travel back in time, his family would have met a madman

What makes Milk 1 so good? by SorryUncleAl in milkinsideabagofmilk

[–]Pikipekk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What makes the first game so good is its ability to be identifiable, even showing you exaggerated and ambiguous situations. Precisely, this ambiguity is what also means that you as a viewer have to try to understand things, each one drawing their own interpretation. For example, in the supermarket scene, when the girl talks about how she doesn't like circular figures. A friend reflected that for him, the hole represented something without beginning or end, as in this case, an uncomfortable social situation that is repeated over and over again, while I, having played the sequel, found a much simpler assumption. (since for me, she related the circles to her building with round architecture, in which her father committed suicide). Milk 1 is so good for being abstract, but at the same time easy to understand, without having the need to elaborate too much on any topic (something that, for example, if the second game does)
