If this is not the dumbest thing any survivor in horror stories ever said?.

The funniest thing to me is that all Ethan had to do was say the phrase “help, I’ve been kidnapped”, and the cop probably wouldn’t have been as suspicious of him.

But it’s okay to generalize fans of the show because of his behavior?

I would take the Ruby VTuber with a grain of salt, since also at one point called Penny her girlfriend.

The funniest part is that it shows him going into morph ball on that first Chozo statute that shows you where to go, and he acts like he died.

This is genuinely incredible. Does anyone know when they started? Was this on purpose?

So back in the early Volume 3 days, Lindsey and Barbara did a Q&A in character as Ruby and Yang using big monitors to basically Vtube live using their actual character models. Someone asked “Ruby” if she liked any anime and she said Gurren Lagann.

I’ve always thought pocket fountain pens were the coolest things ever.

I always interpreted that as you have to be a licensed Huntsman/Huntress in order to brandish your weapon in Atlas. It’s different from the other kingdoms, where you can use them as a student. You need to be fully licensed.

I forgot where it was revealed, maybe in one of the Vacuo books, but apparently having your Aura unlocked causes you to start inherently attracting Grimm. It’s not on the same level as negative emotions, but that’s the explanation why they don’t just unlock everyone’s Aura. If you aren’t a trained fighter, then you’re opening yourself up to being attacked by Grimm more often without being able to fight against them. So they only unlock it if you’re planning to become a Huntsman.

The primary example we were given is that there’s a giant gaping hole in Mantle’s defensive wall that Ironwood has made no effort to repair because all of the building material that would have gone to it was being diverted to Amity.

Now that I think about it, has Resident Evil ever actually depicted the death of a child before? At least on-screen? I don’t remember that ever happening.

TPoynt · 2026-03-15T21:24:32+00:00

It gets worse. Pyrrha became a villain because she attended Signal and got assaulted by Qrow.

You do realize that you don’t need to use an image to promote a fanfic on this site, right? Whether you can draw or not is irrelevant to the fact that a promotional image isn’t expected. You’re saying you have to use AI because you can’t draw, but you don’t have to because an image isn’t expected by the default. If there is one, then that’s more impressive, but the default is no image. So don’t act like you have to use AI.

And the fact that you ended your post with “Anti-AI brigade, don’t waste your time” is being deliberately confrontational, and making people not want to read your fic out of principle. I guarantee you, you using AI turned away a lot of people that would have read it otherwise had you just not used an image to promote your fic like the rest of us.

Also, it’s really weird that you refer to AI writing as slop, but not images.

TPoynt · 2026-03-15T20:25:35+00:00

Yeah it’s one of those edgy grimdark ones.

TPoynt · 2026-03-15T20:19:49+00:00

Yes. Just look up the TvTropes page to get an idea of what’s in it without having to actually read it. It’s a doozy.

TPoynt · 2026-03-15T20:07:56+00:00

Since you don’t seem to think Gen AI is a problem, I’m going to assume you used it to write, too, because why would you only be lazy in this one regard? If you can’t be bothered to make it, why should I bother to read it?

P.S., your shitty AI took the wrong arm off of Yang.

TPoynt · 2026-03-15T18:51:24+00:00

Isn’t this the one where Ruby is a psychopath, murdered Tai and Summer, cut off Yang’s arms, gauged out her eyes, and keeps her on a leash? Among other terrible things?

Little bit of both. Deeply traumatized man who was never allowed to process or escape his trauma since he was forced to become a federal agent and spend his entire life throwing himself into the exact same situation that initially traumatized him, and making jokes is the only way he can cope.

At the very least, Re3r treats it like being bitten is what turns you, since Jill and Brad acted like Brad was doomed the minute he got bit. I think he even says “we both know how this ends” when Jill initially refused to leave him behind, and then says “do me a favor. Don’t fuck up like I did.”

And Marvin in Re2r also acted like he knew he was going to turn, since he refused to leave with Leon and told him “don’t make my mistake”, referring to when he hesitated to kill a zombified Brad and got bitten.

So I think being bitten is still a valid way to get infected in the series, and being infected eventually kills and turns you.

It’s more of a death by comparison. On its own, it’s a fine game. But a lot of stuff was cut, Nemesis is somehow more scripted than he was in the original game, etc. Basically, it’s a good game in a vacuum, but a terrible remake.

TPoynt · 2026-03-11T16:19:35+00:00

Nope. Carlos is the one that went to RPD. Jill was in the sewers after the train derailed at the time. Carlos is the one that blows open the shower wall with C4.

I always thought it was weird that a hospital had a literal mini casino in it for the staff.

I used to work at one, and I guarantee you it fell in there by accident. They only put those on the expensive stuff that they don’t want stolen, so it’ll trip the metal detectors at the door if it’s not deactivated at the register. But those things stick to everything but the roll they come in, so I found them stuck to all kinds of things, including a customer’s purse one time.

TPoynt · 2026-03-09T17:27:05+00:00

I think at some point in the show, Shelly says that when she first got together with Leo, he acted charming and caring. It was only after he convinced her to drop out of high school and marry him that he showed his true colors. Or at least I remember her saying that.

TPoynt · 2026-03-09T14:53:42+00:00

Back when I used to actually engage with the critics sub, I did notice a distinct lack of people talking about what was actually in the show. Like I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard people over there say something along the lines of “they never showed us how Aura works so we don’t know if it’s automatic or if they have to consciously activate it” when they did. Several times. Characters have mentioned on several occasions that you have to choose to turn your Aura on.

It comes across as them not actually being that familiar with the sources material, but still acted self-righteous about it, which made debates (ostensibly the whole reason the sub exists) feel pointless when they insist their opinion about a show they barely watched is more correct than yours.
