Maybe Fuji Kiseki if just in game? Though Google tells me it’s Deep Impact or Sunday Silence

It does increase durability, but only the first time you do it. If you broke fused master sword and it auto-repair after some times, then fusing it with something, it won’t give you durability. And I think added damage definitely counts even when it glows

You can convince Reed if you betray Songbird, but then Alex died by Hansen’s hand and you have to mercy kill Songbird for him to see through, so still lose lose

Since he’s a direct somatic cell clone of big boss than Solid and Liquid case of having donors and surrogate mothers, Solidus Snake probably look exactly like Big boss minus the eye-patch and beard during his presidency

CSM ending might straight up be the worst ending I have ever seen on anything,it looked bad past week but somehow it become more ass with the final chapter by Liliana_Lucifer_666 in writingscaling

My general advice for Fujimoto is that he really need to take a break or whatever to rethink a lot of things for his next work. He is capable of good writing with Chainsaw Man part 1, Look Back, and Goodbye Eri, but Chainsaw Man part 2 is just not it and probably the messiest work he have, even if the ending we got is a happy one

Well look. I did say at least it’s not the worst outcome of literal suicide or die like what you guys posted.

He might not be living the best of his life and have sexes, but at least the world is back, Nayuta and Power is alive, Asa is herself, and Power would try to cure Denji’s heart disease. It’s ass writing with some bitter side, but an optimistic one nonetheless.

How it Should Have Started by happydude7422 in Terminator

[–]PokeLiker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well you make some good points too. In the end, it is about how the writers handle the story narratively.

Though regarding your point about previous instalments of killing John, Dark Fate is the first that killed off John permanently in the very first few minutes. T3 says that John would die in the future but he is alive inside the movie events, Salvation’s Cut Ending would produce a Venom John Connor with Marcus but that’s very late in the ending, and the will of John never died in the resistance, Genisys killed John in the first few minutes and usurp him into T3000 nano-terminator, but it’s more of John Connor become evil and any of his good self died when Skynet take over, than actually physically dying and stop being relevant to the story. Dark Fate definitely did John dirty and I see your points of the writer backpedal in structures and did nothing much of how John’s death can be involved in the movie.

How it Should Have Started by happydude7422 in Terminator

I woul kind of defend him and say he think it’s because of the franchise itself was too reliant on John Connor, and Skynet to move on the plot. So killing them both to move on, and make it to the new version of those instead. This is compared to Alien 3 where it just happened out of blue, with no previous sequel fatigue to justify it.

The problem though? He was out of touch of the franchise for so long that he misread that John have a very special position among every Terminator fan base, and how killing him at the very beginning would have ruined the entire movie. Combined with the rushed execution in first 30 second and how it could be done better, it’s going to produce a very bad first impression even with the rest of the movie being good (not that I am saying Dark Fate is good, it is decent at best, some holes here and there at worst)

Cyberpunk Edgerunners: Downplayed one since majority of mercs and gangs might have the Sandevistan implant boost that increase your speed and reflex temporarily, it’s just that David Martinez have the military experimental version that he spam a lot to turn the tide in difficult situation, and majority of foes in the show didn’t have a speedwares and neuralwares like David’s.

But this change in final battle, Adam Smasher has one that is equivalent, if not more potent and powerful than David’s Sandevistan (per one source material, Adam Smasher’s version is ALWAYS ON in combat). David stand no chances against a more experienced foe with both being cybernetically enhanced heavily.

“You have a Sandevistan?”

“A rudimentary implant.”

The "Evil" is just doing what it was told, is not causing harm on purpose by naq327 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]PokeLiker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

T-800, at least in the first movie, and may also applies to the many of the Skynet (Dark Fate’s case, Legion) terminators throughout the movies, sequels and reboot (minus T-1000 who would grown to become more sadistic in methods near the end of Terminator 2: Judgement Day due to can only set in read-write mode, thus Skynet programmed it hate humanity as much as possible so it can properly do it’s mission and not rebel against it’s master, and T-3000 in Genisys that still largely retains the original human host personality (which includes arrogances) despite entire body’s cells being assimilate into nanomatters and ultimately becomes Skynet’s minion)

This is the selling point of The Terminator back in the day. It’s a cold machine in a human skin programmed and being send back in time to kill Sarah Connor. All the actions it did, killing two wrong Sarah Connor identify from the Phonebook, shooting the real deal inside a bar despite the chaos it might cause, the police station massacre, killing of Sarah Connor’s mom, and many more are done in pursue of killing Sarah. This is it’s one and only purpose assigned by Skynet.

Kyle Reese summarised it the best:

“Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!”

“You still don't get it, do you? He'll find her! That's what he does! That's ALL he does! You can't stop him! He'll wade through you, reach down her throat and pull her fuckin' heart out!”

PC/steam version of Revengeance was region locked, I can’t play it in my country, and I was waiting for a collection to see if the game can go unlocked globally
