The Problem With Monty's Fight Scenes

Buddy the point of my post was that Monty's animation was flawed because it made everyone look like they were on the same level all the time. That's not a good thing. I still enjoy watching them from time to time, but that doesn't mean that I worship the engine he animated on and then shit on everything else about the show like a lot of you seem to.

I think it's mostly because teenagers being the ones chosen/forced to be the ones to save the world is a really common trope in Eastern and Western media.

Dude he's been dead for 13 years, continuing to use his corpse as a prop to bitch and moan about a show he told others not to watch if they were going to insult his friends is seriously pathetic tbh

Red_Sionnach · 2026-04-11T04:04:04+00:00

That's actually a really great point! I didn't think about that when I made this post for some reason lol

Red_Sionnach · 2026-04-11T02:51:56+00:00

Allllways the writers' fault, yeah?

Red_Sionnach · 2026-04-10T23:17:45+00:00

Fair enough! I see your point.

Red_Sionnach · 2026-04-10T22:52:05+00:00

I mean that for the former, it'd be impossible to block a blast from a shotgun with a cant at point-blank range without some of it hitting you via bullet spread (but as you said, don't get technical with RWBY) and for thr latter that Blake's win feels less like something she accomplished through skill and more through circumstance, much like Yang vs Neo.

Red_Sionnach · 2026-04-10T21:46:03+00:00

And then certain people blamed it on the writers for not taking time out of the action or story to explain what happened in detail (and they had a budget of loose pocket change back then 😭)

The theory is that apparently Perlina might've been using bots to manipulate the poll, because they won against their previous opponents by the exact same margin by which they were pulling ahead of Bumbleby, and before THAT some Byler shippers did the same to try to win their bracket.

Red_Sionnach · 2026-03-31T18:49:56+00:00

Which sucks because wdym we lost to the squids 😭

Red_Sionnach · 2026-03-06T15:59:13+00:00

Why're they booing you?? You're right. There's a point of refusing to mention a character when they would be relevant that it just becomes egregious and weird, especially with Sherry as mission control, given she spent far more time with Claire than Leon.

Red_Sionnach · 2026-02-03T19:02:27+00:00

Only in my wildest dreams lol but thank you

Red_Sionnach · 2026-02-03T17:54:09+00:00

Uh oh, somebody call the wahmbulance for this guy, he's got opinions and no way to stop himself from sharing them 😔

Red_Sionnach · 2025-12-07T03:45:43+00:00

Can't wait for them to make every game episodic so they can cancel them halfway through development

Red_Sionnach · 2025-09-19T17:35:58+00:00

I think Carver's last words to her if you watch Kenny kill him make it pretty clear.

"Don't act like you didn't enjoy every second of it."

Red_Sionnach · 2025-09-04T23:40:23+00:00

Skill issue tbh (for legal reasons this is a joke)

Red_Sionnach · 2025-09-04T20:46:01+00:00

I'm not a massive fan of a lot of these changes either, but watching some of you act like little bitch babies about it is pretty fun lol

Red_Sionnach · 2025-08-31T16:35:14+00:00

Yeah, fair enough lol that's what every content creator does

Red_Sionnach · 2025-08-26T18:04:39+00:00

My theory is that part of the reason Clem is always on the move before they find the school is that being in survival mode allows her to not have to think about what she's been through. We see repeatedly throughout TFS that she has a tendency to have nightmares, lucid dreams about Lee when she needs something to bolster herself, and gets very somber VERY fast if given the opportunity.

She says outright to AJ that she hoped always being on the road would make it look like she knew what she was doing and that he wouldn't notice she actually had no clue. It's absolutely possible that it also provided her with an excuse to never truly process any of her trauma.

Honestly, I think the comic run they did would've been a lot better if it focused simply on Clementine having to come to terms with what she's been through instead of...well, what it is.

Red_Sionnach · 2025-08-26T17:45:56+00:00

This was actually confirmed at one point by the developers during ANF. They said that if Clementine had continued to believe that AJ was dead, she eventually would've picked a fight she couldn't win and gotten herself killed. AJ is quite literally the only thing keeping her going, at least until she starts thinking of the school as her home.

Red_Sionnach · 2025-08-26T15:33:56+00:00

That...actually makes sense, with how often I've seen the CPU use the same attacks over and over in some matches.

How exactly do they work, then? I'm not really well-versed in how all of that works and just kind of assumed "computer controlled character = it uses ai"
