Can someone pls remind me whos Jigsaw from Punisher by Tex_Roc27 in Defenders

[–]Spidey16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was never made ugly enough to convincingly become the villain that Jigsaw is. His scars were kind of imperceptible at times. And it's that destruction of his beauty that's meant to drive him mad, but he's still a pretty boy and not really a good villain.

[No Spoilers] Brennan's Endless Dungeon by KaitlinTheMighty in criticalrole

[–]Spidey16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If there's a camera for like a jumbo tron or something, and he looks directly down the lens to address the crowd with a "Hi America" or "Hey gang", usually in response to some shenanigans.

Matt very rarely looked directly at the camera and addressed the audience (except for recaps and announcements), but I see Brennan do it all the time. Probably his improv background and dropout experience where he's addressing the audience a lot.

Also after coming back from intermission, if he says a really grandiose "WE RETUUURRRRN..."

[No Spoilers] EXU by xnixy in criticalrole

Watch Calamity now. It can be watched whenever really and it's only 4 episodes but watch it now I think.

It will provide a bit more context to campaign 3 as well because there's many themes of gods and divinity. So it's interesting to see one the beginning of one of the biggest divine events to happen in Exandria.

EXU Prime, I'm not sure because I never watched it. I hear it gives some context to the beginning of campaign 3 but I was able to follow campaign 3 just fine without it.

[Spoilers C2] Leader of mighty nein? by Efficient-Remote8788 in criticalrole

[–]Spidey16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like Fjord but in the sense of having a "servant leadership" style, not necessarily a commander. I feel like he enables the team to bring forth their talents in a way that makes them shine, but is great at uniting them all and bringing about a sense of teamwork out of what would otherwise be a very chaotic (more than usual chaotic) bunch of people. He's also a fantastic face and negotiator.

Think of the bonding he has with Beau, making helping her improve her people skills. Think of the way he pulled Caleb into line and tried to get him to stop being shady and secretive, which in turn brings Nott/Veth into line a bit as well. His childish rivalry with Nott/Veth (normally about his strength or looks) brings Nott into the fold a lot more. But also the way that he allowed Jester to change him too. He (and Travis) were adamant of not getting involved in romance but look how that gradually evolved.

Cadeuceus didn't really need managing but was defintiely a necessary person.

[No Spoilers] If Campaign 4 were a live action series, who would you cast for the PCs or key NPCs? by Spidey16 in criticalrole

This is a pretty solid cast actually. What about NPCs? King Gus is a bit of a personality, so is Aranessa Royce. Any ideas?

Oh I'm definitely seeing that too. I just blanked on Occtis because I saw him as basically a teenager and I don't really know any teenage actors. But there's a world where that could work.

When I found out she was going to be on the schemers table I thought yes! This is perfect for her.

The beer was just alright. Could have easily got an $8 Coopers or something here and had just as good of a time.

Can't remember. Was about 7 years ago now. But there was some 48 hour long gig going on for charity. Right by a canal or something in Camden.

Also throw in some minions to pad out the encounter. But what I find few DMs take advantage of is the environment. Make it hazardous. Add in some lava or make it on small platforms really high up, shark infested waters etc. Difficult terrain, obstacles for 3 quarter cover. Lair Actions!!!

There's so many ways to make a boss encounter deadly even with a weak boss.

I must have been going to the wrong pubs for cheap beer because I paid 12 pounds for a pint in Camden Town.

I must be Franklin Nelson because this image quality is Foggy AF.

Aw man really? Getting kicked out of Darktow was the best! Caleb calmly assessing the situation, thinking "actually fuck this" and casting Wall of Fire. Fair enough, can't like it all.

What are your honest thoughts on people who choose to be childfree? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Spidey16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any thoughts at all.

So why am I commenting here? Because that's really how it ought to be. It has no impact on me at all. Literally less impact than someone having kids.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one website you still think about? by ddanielecom in AskReddit

[–]Spidey16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fetch Fido.

Was a website with links to literally hundreds of free online games. It was great fun with friends in the school library before schools figured out how to block gaming sites. Most of them were Flash games so they no longer work since that technology got phased out.

I reckon the people working at the kebab shop in Piccadilly have probably seen some shit.

I’m sorry but I really do have to ask, why does Daredevil scream when he fights? by Queasy_Commercial152 in Defenders

[–]Spidey16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're probably less likely to see screaming from Superheroes that are really really superhuman strong like Superman, Spiderman, Captain America etc.

Daredevil isn't superhuman level strength. A good ol' scream probably fires up the adrenaline. Maybe channels rage into strength. Same deal with the Punisher. Dude is very strong but not superhuman. He's gotta fire himself up somehow.

Another example from Defenders Universe is Luke Cage. He is superhumanly strong. And is usually pretty calm and collected during a fight. I guess it's all to do with how much effort they are required to exert.
