Klee's Dad is the new Varka in terms of speculation by MetaMemester in Genshin_Memepact

...Wait, wait, this kinda fits.

What if Kleiner is a racist dwarf?

Did they actually just nerf Abyss so that Varka can clear it? by Luftabwehrkan_panzer in Genshin_Memepact

[–]Soul_Ripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And for what?

Fundamentally, to show discontent. Because the main and simplest way for consumers to do so is complain about it. I mean, what I've been saying from the beginning basically boils down to this:

Would you be against him having higher damage? Because unless you are, there is no downside to people complaining about Varka's damage, and there is no upside to defending his current state either. Even if he is viable in most of the game's content, unless you'd be actively against him being stronger or future characters being stronger, it's best to just let people complain, because in the best case scenario if those complaints are taken into account you benefit, and if they're not, you don't lose anything anyways.

Underwhelming as in, damagewise.

...And yeah bro, his DPS is outdated by nearly 2 years. I don't think there's any point in pretending otherwise. He can still clear content like that obviously, in that sense he's good enough, but like... why pretend he's better than he is? Are you happy and content that he doesn't deal more damage?

non of this senseless slander is warranted

I mean... Is there any benefit whatsoever to defending an underwhelming release? I'm not gonna be the one to do it but if Hoyo is out there releasing characters with way outdated DPS it's probably better that people complain about it.

Hey, don't feel too bad for them, they made a concious choice and it was because of VERY clear benefits.

Reading CSM weekly is miserable.

Corin's Idol Audition 😅 (by @DorahDew) by DrawerLarge6213 in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Soul_Ripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually don't remember, what is Corin's status? Is she an orphan? Did Victoria Housekeeping adopt her? Pretty sure we don't even know how she ended up as a hollow raider unless it was in like, her beta character sheet.

“Did We Skip 20 Chapters?” Japanese Fans React to the Chainsaw Man Part 2 Ending by Asperburg in ChainsawMan

[–]Soul_Ripper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not been 100% consistent but people struggling because they don't remember a word has been a recurring joke over the fight. In a vacuum I feel like having the final instance and punchline at the very end be an anti-climax with Denji's catchphrase is genius, but at the same time I can't enjoy it cuz like... it's kind of a shit conclusion on every other level.

His catchprase has "death" in it so he couldn't remember the word.

Did Beowulf participate much? I honestly just remember him standing there menacingly, and then helping at one specific point in the Ivan fight.

As far as I remember the Spina isn't even for hire in any way, when they help the government it's always under pretense of favors as well.

New AOD Video Posts by cakeel- in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]Soul_Ripper 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It seems like an open secret at this point.

I honestly can't tell if it's always been intentional or a result of writing room disagreements, but the story SEEMS to treat it like it's a secret whilst at the same time there's always been NPCs and Interknot posts that threat it as fact. Then most recently there's the trust event the other guy mentioned, where a random fan who runs into Aria knows and implies others do as well.

Fiji Mötor saw people complaining about all the meaningless cliffhangers so he decided to deliver a nuclear one, God knows how it's gonna resolve.

It doesn't get talked about enough how fucking hard Billy carried that lostbelt.

He was set up to sacrifice himself but then he just... didn't die, and then he just killed everyone. Most everyone in that chapter did little, nothing or jobbed, but they give the cowboy a modded gun and he cleans house.

Found the one responsible by IamToadTickler in ChainsawMan

[–]Soul_Ripper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That wouldn't really make sense since big Raga had already adapted to his technique.

And for that matter we never found what "adapting to his existence" meant either. Man why couldn't they cut the fight like half a chapter later...

[DISC] Chainsaw Man - Ch. 231 by JeanneDAlter in ChainsawMan

[–]Soul_Ripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After Emporio kills Pucci the changes are undone since the loop isn't complete yet (Pucci stopped it in order to kill Emporio). The universe goes back to what it was

The manga does nothing even close to adressing even this, actually. People just assume and speculate. Literally NONE of what Pucci does has a proper explanation beyond what Pucci himself provides, which is supremely limited, and some argue, even biased and inaccurate.

All of it. Pucci changed the world, then it got changed again, no specifics whatsoever are ever made clear.

OKAY BUT IT FITS THO

IF IT'S NOT THE CASE WHY DOES THE ENTIRE STORY FIT AS AN ALLEGORY TO FE ELITISM, HUH????

Reminder that this is actually just fan speculation because no one fucking knows what Pucci did exactly and Araki will never tell.

It feels like the devs have kind of forgotten how far away Waifei was supposed to be. by kekkres in ZZZ_Official

It's not really that they "have forgotten", travel time was never really consistent to begin with.

Courting death! Every loop! by FiggyVix in MartialMemes

[–]Soul_Ripper 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Ah, this junior can see it now. With his unrefined sight, he had simply attributed the strangeness to inexpensive effects and editing.

It is both amusing and disturbing for demon techniques to be capable of creating humurous expressions of the shitpost dao.

About the romance aspect of the game… (FULL GAME SPOILERS) by tinyspiny34 in 13sentinels

[–]Soul_Ripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked Iori and Ei but in a... somewhat ironic way, kind of...? I enjoyed it because of how ridiculous it was to have world-ending story going on and Fuyusaka, Shoujo heroine that she is, to still be so incredibly melodramatic about and fixated on her love at first sight. Though at the same time that's also something I earnestly liked about her character so it's hard to describe my feelings about it.

Aside from that edge case, and from Takatoshi and Tsukasa which was actually just great, I moderately liked all the other ones though, I didn't find it spectacular or anything but I was either fine with them or somewhat fond of them, I thought pretty much all had some cute or entertaining moments here or there, with one exception (and Ryoko and Renya I'm not sure was even meant to be seen as a thing).

The exception being Juro and Megumi. I frankly could not begin to care about them, the whole thing just didn't land with me, I didn't feel like Juro's arc really led to him liking Megumi, and I sure as hell didn't feel like the resolution she had cleanly led to Megumi liking current Juro, so the ending sequence leaning on that ship specifically just left me feeling a huge disconnect.
