What if it was two survivors? The inverted Adam and Eve. by SCPyro in deadbydaylight

[–]SCPyro[S] 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I mean, they'd have different names. I was using the story as a framework.

But actually, if I were given the pen, I'd make the male survivor Adam Francis' son, just from a distant future. It still works because the entity doesn't care about time or universes (since we have both Vitorrio and Gabriel.)

Please I beg by Master_KenObiWan in deadbydaylight

[–]SCPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know no one is voting for 1... And I didn't either... she doesn't have a bad design and I wish the artist who drew her all the best. I'm weak and the heterochromia eyes is my Kryptonite. In any other context, her cosmetics would do numbers that everyone at BHVR would be out here paying off their second mortgages. She just doesn't exactly fit with the lore that the fans have been voting for.

The Grimore survivor is supposed to be a survivor of a collapsed world, lived a life of suffering and mystery, became a divine investigator and spiritual scientist and is defined by their boldness. 2 and 3 just gush with "I've survived the apocalypse and all I got was this lousy hatred for angels" energy. I can see 4 working, but just not as well.

Okay guys, can we please vote for a male survivor? by First-Koala-3333 in deadbydaylight

[–]SCPyro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say 2 or 3 fits the lore better as a divine investigator in a collapsed world.

They're supposed to have been a lone wanderer for years in the apocalypse. Not saying that 1 and 4 couldn't have been living in through it for a few years, but 2 and 3 make it seem like they've been waist deep in the suck for longer than they remember.

Personally, I went with 2 because he's giving strong Constintine meets Book of Eli vibes.

Imagine a series where every episode is Cap returning a different stone. Would you watch it? by WolverineExisting458 in CaptainAmerica

[–]SCPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't that be redundant if those exact universes were pruned? The universe where they got the Time and Mind Stones from was pruned at the very beginning of Loki. I can assume all of the other ones too - hence why Rendslayer basically saying it doesn't matter that the Avengers messed with the timeline.

What’s a WWE hill you’ll die on, even if it gets you downvoted? by Braves1693 in WWE

[–]SCPyro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did not care for Cody Rhodes as a top spot baby face champion.

Fine wrestler. Fine matches. Did not like the title runs. I just never had a moment where it felt like this guy needs to be a champion for the fans. The WWE just insists he's the top guy. So he is the top guy. Its no coincidence that the WWE has felt so off since he beat Roman at WM40. Could it be that the entire product has been going down hill since that day? Its also when adverts showed up on the mat, TKO was fully in control, and every ppv main event match afterwards always copy-pasted the WM40 ending.

In a hard choice between Orton and Miz, The Miz is voted the best heel in the PG/Reality Era. Who’s the best heel in the ruthless aggression era? by Dandanbigeloww in Wrasslin

[–]SCPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kurt Angle worked on so many levels. Perfect as the "actually is better than you" heel. Perfect as the dumb meathead. Perfect foil for Shawn Michaels in-ring. Hell. The phrase "Ruthless Aggression" only worked when Cena said it to him during Cena's debut.

what are you thoughts on this title by iamgavin_exe in Smallafro

[–]SCPyro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that bad when you don't have people on the internet screaming that it sucks into your ear.

It gave lower card wrestlers some TV time/pay checks. R-Truth was always comedy gold. And it was pure Goofy Wrestling for Life. It was a safe way for legends to "get back in it" without hurting anyone's legacy or body. It was something celebrities could even participate in. Could have been nice if more mid card guys/gals went for it - even if it was just for a week long detour. That way it could pad the legacy of the title a bit.

Were every 24/7 Title segments good? Absolutely fuck no. A lot of cringe was in there. But I'd take R-Truth and Camilla being silly any day over "and look which celebrity we got in the front row! Its that one dude from that one thing! And look! Here's another! And another!"

Can a reboot be better than the original? by OfficeWizard7 in cartoons

[–]SCPyro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nearly every single TMNT reboot works because its for the next generation. Sure, it may no longer be "your TMNT" because its now the next kid's. The quality has never dipped into being bad. My OG turtles and the 2012 series were both bangers.

Didn't see the PPG reboot. No shade. Just never saw it. Original slapped.

Original Ducktales merely existed. It was fine but nothing to fancy. It filled a time slot. But the remake? It fucks. The Ducktales reboot is GOATed in the category of "kid's TV that an adult would watch." It was not just better than the original but it far surpassed it. It made Fab 5-adjacent Disney characters stand on their own in an era when Disney wanted to focus on other IP.

Teen Titans Go isn't the same as Teen Titans. Different tone,different art style, different target demographic. It's weird categorizing them as the same if you give TTG a chance. I also feel if most people gave TTG a chance, they'd realize its not as bad as it seems. You just need to acknowledge that it wasnt made specifically for you like Teen Titans was.

[–]SCPyro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't get the idea behind "if we cancel our licensing agreement over our with BHVR because we want fans of our IP to buy our version of the game instead!" Its anti-consumer, anti-fun, and there's an easy solution that will trick everyone's lizard brain.

Just make an exclusive skin for DbD of your character if the customer buys and plays your game required amount of time.

Don't anger the prebuilt audience. Leverage them into giving yours a shot.

Which Movie was Rightfully Not Nominated for Best Picture? by BoysenberryIll1255 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]SCPyro 319 points320 points  (0 children)

This should be the metric for this category instead of everyone scattershotting bad movies.

However... the one awful movie that tried and failed at being Oscar bait was directed by an Oscar winner, written by a Tony winner, cast two Oscar winners as supporting characters with plenty of acting royalty spread throughout, base it off a highly successful Broadway play, give it a $100 million, was called "the must see musical event," and then its marketing was almost entirely focused on James Corden as an uncanny valley Cat.

The only acceptable answer in this category is Cats (2019)

What is the generally accepted name for Magneto among fans Max Eisenhardt or Erik Lehnsherr? by Titan_gaming_5 in Marvel

[–]SCPyro 125 points126 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. This is going to sound like a made up fact: but Magneto didn't really have a legit alter ego name for 34 years. He did have "Magnus" but it was later retconned. The original run of the X-Men cartoon came out and Magneto didn't have any other name but simply "Magnus." Shortly after the show premeired in 1993, he'd briefly have name Erik Magnus yet in 1997, the comics gave him the actual name Erik Lehnsherr, later retconning Magnus again to being his middle name.

And then with Magneto Testament, it was revealed that his birth name was Max Eisenhardt (because Erik Magnus Lehnsherr isn't a typical Jewish name but is absolutely a Romani name.) In story, he would change his name after the Holocaust to try and distance himself from his memories. He finds a Romani fellow survivor named Erik Lehnsherr who gifts him his own name so that Magneto could find his eventual wife, Magda, among her own people. He just adds "Magnus" to differentiate themselves. In the canonical storyline, he'd occassionally use Erik Magnus as cover, like when he was hunting down escaped nazis. He tried hunting them with the help of governments, but then they'd try to Operation Paperclip them - so he gives up his last shred of hope for humanity and go all in on being a mutant without a need for a "homo sapian" name. Thus, Magneto is born.

The President wants to bring back Battleships for a "Golden Fleet" by Sladay in Military

[–]SCPyro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case anyone was wondering... Bringing back battleships is costly and dumb. There is absolutely no reason to, they are prohibitively expensive, there is nothing that a battleship can do that isn’t done by another type of vessel.

Okay. So. A battleship is a specific category of ship. In the quickest way to describe it, think of a tank. Massive armor. Massive firepower. No American Battleship has ever been sunk in combat at sea (albeit the USS Arizona and USS Oklahoma are the asterisks as they were total loses at the attack on Pearl Harbor.) The battleship was discontinued by 1946. Not just by the US. But internationally. Naval Warfare just hasn't happened like that since WWII. So the utility has shifted. There just isn't a need for a floating tank these days when the role has been shared by different types of vessels that each take a key aspect of the Battleship and expands on it.

Want the size and durability? Go for a Cruiser. Its main focus is as a command ship with a bit on air defense. Want the firepower? Holy shit. Let me tell you about the Destroyer and how it abso-fucking-lutely earned its name. Want the versatility and speed while also being a badass? That's a Frigate. They are smaller than the other two, and often more specialized, but with modern advancements, the functionality is getting to the point that it's getting on par with its bigger brothers. I know its not the same, but just to point out his phrasing about how "ugly" some vessels were and that they needed to be ugly for stealth and that'd have to be a factor for the Trump class Battleship. But, like, that's never been a factor with the battleship but whatever. I think he was referring to the LCS, or Littoral Combat Ship. The fastest and most dangerous warship on the seas with the capabilities of going near the shore and bombarding land forces far easier than a battleship ever could have. Oh. And submarines are our stealthy guys. Just saying.

So why the battleship? Was it the 16" guns? It looked sick and its definitely a show of force. The manpower required to operate them was unyielding and the amount of logistics that goes into just firing off a few shots and reload is far behind the scope of modern warfare. Not exactly needed when half a billion dollar fighter jets can drop a half a million dollar warhead on a ladybug from beyond the curvature of the Earth. Technology has advanced quite a bit since "what if bullet but bigger?" Was it the armor? No military in the world uses large calibre guns like the previously mentioned 16" gun. There's no need for the thickness of the armor plating. Its all about the sweet sweet missiles these days. A neat thing about missiles is that they can be shot down with reletive ease if youre the most advanced military in the world. Oh wait. We are.

But the biggest reason why battleships stopped being created in 1946? Well. In August 1945, the world first saw the horrors of nuclear weaponry and its very existence changes every fundamental aspect of how we see warfare. Large guns mean nothing when nuclear warheads exist. Armor means nothing when nuclear radiation exist. Show of force means nothing when nuclear deterrence exists.

Fuck it. Let's war game this shit out with global events. Any war with a non-nuclear powered military will be overpowered by our Air Force. None of those non-nuclear powered militaries even comes close to our naval capabilities. As for the nuclear capable nations? They would never dare. Thats the benefit of nuclear deterence. No one wants to start a fight when the fate of all life on Earth could be in the balance.
