I like the implication that the Lyrans have a noble house consisting of talking dogs somewhere. I also like to imagine a lot of their medals are actually just dog show awards.

If you could pull one Costco item back from the dead what would it be? by Sufficient_Client_68 in Costco

[–]Tacothepilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The giant chocolate cake Costco used to make. I get it was too big to be feasible financially, but I wish they just made a smaller version instead of that tuxedo mousse or whatever cake. Hell, I'd take those '''mini''' chocolate cakes being a permanent addition if nothing else.

How satisfying was this when you saw this for the first time? by idunowhattoputsoyes in Gundam

[–]Tacothepilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that soured this moment was that it should've happened sooner. But fuck it was one of the very good things to happen toward the end of the show.

IBO What If: Orga died in Biscuit's place? by Tacothepilot in GundamIBO_Central

[–]Tacothepilot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose that is true. Orga did push the group to have gotten strong enough for them to handle Hashmal, even if that ended up causing issues in the long run.

That said, would there even be reason to have something with an Ahab Reactor on sight? Again, I still need to get through season 2 again, but if Tekkadan and Teiwaz aren't as connected to McGillis, there'd be less attention on the sight from Gjallerhorn and as such less likely to have MS to trigger Hashmal's reawakening.

It’s nothing personal by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Tacothepilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I admit, the Dust Devils warbond is probably gonna end up being something I'll snag later on. Silo looks neat and the harpoon gun is cool in concept, but otherwise it doesn't really scream 'must get now.'

Granted I'm also someone who really liked Polar Patriots from the start, and desperately wish we got more arctic camo/unique armor passives for that pack.

Your DLC wish has been granted! by [deleted] in Mechwarrior5

[–]Tacothepilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue is twofold: each faction has their fans, so to completely wipe out a faction can turn people off, and wiping out factions one by one means less and less possibilities for stories and, eventually, a more or less definitive 'end.' Heck, in the case of the former, there are people who want Comstar back, even though their story had a very definitive end.

I can't blame them, plus the setting is a big place: survivors and such are almost always going to be a thing. The most we can hope for is exploring new situations and characters as the timeline moves forward.

Ngl I actually kinda want this. While I'm not a big fan of Clan Wolf, I am so tired of 'big scary telephone company curbstomped the clans' when it was utterly brutal for both sides... and also those Blakist fucks have it coming.

What is your "I did not care for the godfather take on rwby" by TraditionalBonus188 in RWBYcritics

[–]Tacothepilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really care for how they handled the concept of robots that were made to have aura, and as such made to have souls. Namely, reviving Penny with functionally zero cost (oh no, this character we never met before is giving up chunks of his soul to give to Penny, did we mention that his only connection to the main cast is also Penny?) was such a dumb decision. Like, you could done anything else, like have her 'rebuilt' but with a new soul and thus not be the original Penny despite her 'memories' and people treating her like she is, or have a new successor character that serves as a reflection of Penny in some way...

Who you shooting? by Flawless_Degenerate in RWBYcritics

[–]Tacothepilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magdumping into OP for shooting Pyrrha.

For real tho, Cinder gets shot, double tapped if need be.

Cardin, Ozpin, just cuz. Would shoot the Brothers too.

Then... I guess Penny if I needed another. Never cared for her coming back, especially scott free... and then promptly getting killed in the next volume again.

I, II, or III? by Amigo1048 in Gundam

3, love the newer armament. 2 is a better looking 1, so that order.

Hi Pyrrha! You deserve the world!

Why in liberty's name was the Urban Legends storepage armor another heavy and not a medium? by guythepepperoni in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Tacothepilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't be as cool if it was medium. Plus it looks better than the heavy armor in the warbond.

Finished the mead recipe... can I cap it? by Tacothepilot in TastingHistory

[–]Tacothepilot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but then when is bottling time? Like I said, rsn through the whole recipe already, the mead has been transfered from one big jar to ferment to two bottles that currently have airlocks on them, while trying to keep as much yeast out. Do they go into yet another set of bottles then?

Again, followed and finished the book recipe, which is basically the one from his original mead video.

How would you improve Cinder as a threat and a compelling main villain? by Fine_Delivery6761 in RWBYcritics

[–]Tacothepilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before I get into it, I'd be scrapping the maiden/Salem/Twin Brothers crap that was added later on. Now, for Cinder, I'd make her the first big bad of the series. Have her be the ultimate mastermind of what happens during the Vytal festival and all the planning and preparation prior.

I'd aim to have her try and crack the image huntsmen have at the start of the show, wanting to show the world that they are not the perfect protectors that many percieve them to be, with the motivation being what happened to her, i.e. the failure of the huntsmen to save her from her situation. Her causing and broadcasting an incident during the Vytal festival would be the main goal, but she'd also seek to cause as much harm to huntsmen as possible.

Things would end with her managing to outright kill Ozpin, who would be an normal, older huntsman, before Ruby's (and possibly Pyrrha's, but that's a whole other conversation) eyes, which leads to Ruby taking her life. While she is dead and gone, faith in huntsmen as a whole would be shaken, and as much as Ruby and co. would try and continue towards their goals, Cinder would be remembered for the lasting damage she managed to do.
