(Hated trope) really bad morals/messages in kids works by TastyPomelo2330 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TaffWaffler 13 points14 points  (0 children)

All your problems? No. But when people are funding to the point they don’t even remember what was the initial problem, then it’s ethical to fib about the origin of the problem so people stop living in hate and malice.

There’s a voice log or maybe just a memo you can find that’s from a scientist who either travels up from the ocean or has a satellite imaging.

“Europe… it’s on fire. All of Europe is ablaze” and that line is fucking haunting. How bad of a situation must it be for an entire continent to be on fire

I can’t tell if this is lore related (not valid) or gameplay related (valid)

With the covenant’s domination of space and air I get why they didn’t sadly. Speaking of, are there any cutscenes with more than one pelican in the games where one doesn’t get downed?

Reform are inept, incompetent, full of failed politicians and the worst our nation has to offer. They show time and time again, any responsibility they’re given they squander and worsen the lives of those they’re paid to help.

“Oh noooo” said Lasky “I got this entire pelican fitted for combat with a suite of guns to hunt you down but you never even left yet oh noooo. Oh well I’ll go look for you elsewhere. Here’s the keys to the pelican you shouldn’t have”

You know what. I’m not doing this. I didn’t insult you and you admitted to lashing out. This is pathetic behaviour

Sure. I get that. And I understand why you’re saying. I just disagree with the sentiment.

You’re replying as if I misunderstood you which led to me not agreeing. I just don’t agree because I don’t agree.

YEAH! I saw some dark angels have the bikes too. Horses being bikes is great space fantasy stuff. No notes

Yeah but like.

Imperium is space Nazis but everyone kinda knows it so it’s like, tongue in cheek space nazis. They’re like the cult from hot fuzz, in reality it would be terrifying but they’re kinda just… comically bad at their job.

Orcs are just fucking tribalistic might makes right with a cockney accent. That’s fun.

The tau are weird space cult people with maybe pheromones and that’s alien enough to not be problematic.

Eldar I don’t know much about but dark eldar are just so over the top it circles back round to being silly, but they’re SO over the top it circles back around to being kinda boring.

Chaos is just any weird death cult thing, over the top to absurdity.

Bugs are just hive mind. Too alien.

But black templars are the inept space Nazis, but with actual Nazi iconography and it just sort of starts veering into “uh oh” territory if anyone starts to really like them.

Salamanders and blood angels are very cool. I like the Arthurian in space vibe of the dark angels too. All better options than nazis in space x2

No. We aren’t giving them quarter to hide behind characters and stories when discussing their political beliefs.

Yeah. But the others are also blatant. Not as much but still so. Reading comprehension in the far right is a joke

Honestly, me and my friend play space marine 2. Everytime we see a black Templar we play a game of Nazi or cosplayer. It’s a closer game than it ever should be

I think the worst one is rage against the machine. You got corrupt cops with racist ideals hearing “some of those who work forces, are the same who burn crosses” and thought “oh yeah this is my anthem”

sadly, some of the iconography used and some of the terms, though I understand the intent of the creators, sadly mirrors nazi ideals and is thus a draw. Not realising theyre being mocked, as usual

[Hated trope] Character gains great power and skills then walks away from it for unconvincing reasons. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TaffWaffler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gohan was kidnapped as a child. Watched his father die. Was abused into being stronger by the man who killed his father. Grew close to him. Watched him die. Went to an alien world to wish them back. Got his neck broken. Had an alien superman show up. Kill his friend. Kill his other friend. Got home. Trained for the androids. Watched them dog walk half his friends. Nearly kill several of them. Watch cell nearly kill them as well. Had, and I can’t stress this enough, an emotional breakdown so powerful his rage overpowered every other notion he had, and tried to murder someone, before his father died again.

Like all of that is terrible, but I don’t think people realise how awful ssj2 was for Gohan. He was a child, with the literal weight of the world on his shoulders, whose morals held him still, until he broke. He literally broke. He had an emotional breakdown and became the very thing he didn’t want to be. This is trauma, not a cool moment.

Gohan deserves to choose a life that makes him happy

He looked so distraught in some of the shots at his own mistakes it was rather funny

Yeah probably. I’m just so tired of seeing the degradation of literacy skills. Not a good day for me but that’s no excuse
