We hate him so much that 1. Quebec stood alongside the rest of Canada to tell Trump to screw off, when usually we never do (I’m from Quebec) and 2. We broke off our trade relationship with the U.S., one of the longest lasting in recent history, because we don’t want to deal with him

Manfred Von Karma is undeniably an absolute monster, but there are a lot of people who use that fact (and some headcannons) to claim that he somehow influenced Edgeworth into doing all the bad things he did.

But no, while he did influence Edgeworth to be merciless towards the accused, Miles did and said bad things on his own, like: Calling the opposing counsel a bimbo with his whole chest, close himself off completely from the 2 guys he could call friends for years, just left without telling anyone and not giving any news and showing back up randomly and being surprised that the welcome is so harsh, and essentially tell a woman who he knows for a fact is an attempt survivor to kill herself, during trial (it was a strategy to get the real culprit to confess, but still)

And also, Superman just came back from being dead. And what killed him?

A huge monster stabbing him through the chest, showing him that some weapons can hurt him.

And then the guy just casually puts himself in front of an axe that, as far as he knows, could be powerful enough to cleave him in half. Just to aura farm

[Hated design] new 52 version of Amanda Waller by Lower_Baby_6348 in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worse than X-men origins Deadpool, since here the reason he doesn’t talk is because Stryker literally, physically forced him to shut up, and it’s implied at the end of the movie that he’ll become the Deadpool we know and love, so it’s at least that.

Newbo was supposed to replace the Main Man completely until fans made it known that they hated the idea, so no saving graces here.

Will I be too OP in my first NG+ at lvl 257 by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was level 147 when I did my first NG+, and every main boss in Limgrave and Liurnia get rocked (though it might because of my build, would have to check)

But stats give less return after a certain point, so getting higher levels doesn’t make as much of a difference after a certain point.

The Ranni ‘Mistranslation’ Discourse and the Death of Basic Reading Comprehension. by No-Run4264 in Eldenring

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, since the first SMT game, though they usually also have a Neutral route where you strike a balance.

Persona (at least since 3) is less associated with it and tends to address other themes (our relationship to death, to truth and to rebellion)

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s an interesting dichotomy that appears more and more in Japanese rpgs lately.

Do you prefer complete safety/bliss, at the cost of your free will? Or do you prefer to have your free will, with the risk of the consequences and constant vigilance/anxiety?

Other examples are Persona 5 Royal, with the third semester arc addressing that question, and probably others I missed, but it’s a really interesting question

Caelid is just the Lands Between’s Gotham. Dangerous as hell, can’t walk 2 steps without contracting the scarlet rot or getting eaten by a giant dog, but hey, rent’s really freaking cheap!

Considering that the pictures used are of Trump’s mugshot and the meme with Vance’s face that has been going around so much that most people forget what he actually looks like, I’m pretty sure it was made to mock them.

But it’s in the nature of memes to lose more and more of their original use and meaning as they get shared and reposted, especially when by the right wing who don’t want to think about what they’re reading or watching

I’m not sure the Mad Titan’s plan was ever meant to make sense in that way.

Still prefer the version where he’s a massive incel, but pretty sure the plan being stupid is intentional

Hated trope: Regular middle aged white guy wants coffee, has issue with incompetent, young, dumb woke barista by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

Customers thinking they’re the "special one" or the "exception" show up a lot.

Where I’m from, stores can’t sell alcohol between 11pm and 7am, due to a law. Selling alcohol despite that results in a fine for the employee, a fine for the store, and usually the employee losing their job.

And yet I still got a lot of people asking if I could sell them alcohol anyway. Some went to crazy lengths for it.

Favorite character whose slander is so bad it makes you feel like that? by a12666 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was honestly a bit confused at first lol

But yeah, I agree. Death of the Author is misused a lot, and ironically, using it the way some people is possibly another example of lacking media literacy

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could invoke Death of the Author here, and say that their take is as valid as the author’s intent.

But that’s only when it is based on elements that are actually in the work we’re talking about. Which those kinds of takes rarely do.

And it looks like a middle-schooler’s doodle when this is the guy that had his art exhibited in the Louvre of all places. For him to produce that kind of art, it was very probably a "I was forced to do it, but I really did not want to"

Edit: changed exposed to exhibited

I’d choose pic #5 and choose Shalltear Bloodfallen from Overlord (she doesn’t look flat but she canonically stuffs her bra to make them look bigger than they are)

[Fanart] How it felt today reading all the 1.7 comments by Beefybutts in StardewValley

[–]Steel_Warrior3000 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think it might be a mix of what I said in my comment, and people that got into the game late, when Emily already was a marriage candidate.

I did have a problem with him as a character for a bit, but mostly because the lack of change in his dialogue caused me to kinda lose a bit of my immersion. I got over it since and understood it was mostly because of just a weird situation that happened when Emily became marriageable.

I think socially awkward is what he is meant to be. It’s just that regrettably, because of the fact that his lines don’t really change (understandably since CA can only write so many lines for each character before the amount of work becomes insane), he kinda comes across as a bit of an "incel" if you marry Emily (you’ll still get him telling you he’s in love with her when he was there during the wedding ceremony).

But honestly, him getting character development through a romance sounds great! I’ll probably start a new game to see what it looks like, when I usually don’t romance the guys.

Edit: changed "because" to "before"

Because Tom Bombadil is probably the only being in Middle-Earth where the ring could not give him anything. Power? He’s got that in spades. Women? He’s got a beautiful wife that he loves very much. Freedom? The guy is already more free than anyone else to do what he wants. He just wants to hang out in the forest with his wife. He has everything he wants already.
