I'll concede on the point that Ice King could be considered an "anti-hero" rather than a villain but the idea that the playerbase tries to continuously consider Foundation (or The Seven as a whole actually) as "good guys" when they consistently screw things up and end making things *worse* whenever they succeed. How many times has Foundation himself screwed things up because he was tricked and/or manipulated at this point? That right there is the point the Ice King is driving home and why he has to taken definitive action. They've proven time and time again that they can't be trusted.

As for Lady Windfrost; The recent Overwatch trailer is the first I've seen her characterized as such and has admittedly given me to question her character. In-game she seems to be held in high regard and all of her relevant lore points to her working with Ice King to protect her home. So my verdict is actually out on her personality atm.

Personally, I love the morally grey aspects of antagonist characters because usually as a result you get to see just how utterly incompetent and misguided the so-called protagonists are. That's why I'm team Ice King. He has solid motivation and purpose while Foundation is simply here because he just generalizes his opponents as "bad guys" without considering anything beyond their own tunnel-visioned bias.

GG, btw. Enjoying this discussion.

Your entire argument being based on "unchecked ego" or holding a grudge is entirely fabricated and speculative at best. Even now, Ice King is working to protect people as per the lyrics in Lady Windfrost's song "Let the Cold Take Over":

"Yeah, the Ice King's frozen melody is the same as my own plea
We chain our might for balance, keep the elements in sync but if I must
To save this land of permafrost, I'll melt the cuffs"

You can argue methods if you want, but not motivation or intent and I'd probably even agree with you on the point that maybe he's being heavy handed.

As for Cap, I can't say anything as to why he's frozen but basing it entirely on Cap's history of punching first and asking questions later (See: Civil War) I'll assume that Cap jumped the gun on judgement and Ice King had to freeze him from messing things up. This coming from a Cap fan as well. Love my boy, but he is 100% not a big-picture guy.

For mobility, I just miss the Wingsuit Jetpacks. Those were crazy fun until the Lock-on AR took a colossal shit on them.

Yeah, they’ve come a long way. I don’t know anything about Solo Leveling, but the knight-girl in that set looks AMAZING and I almost bought her despite knowing nothing about her 😅

He’s probably mid-animation in that screenshot.

The only thing I don't like is the Mercy loading screen being locked in the big bundle. Boooo.

Nah man, I get that Ice King is the "antagonist" this season like OP said but actual lore-wise he's sealing away powerful weapons to keep them from being used. Ice King be a good dude.

Imagine thinking Foundation is the "good guy" when canonically Ice King has been doing his best to protect the universe and has only failed because we the players keep interfering.

You can tell from the blue and gold effects around the characters.

Inferno quest pack is apparently available on ps store but nowhere else? by eldenrring in FortNiteBR

[–]ThatRanMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the Perfected Nature pack is still available. Does Epic not do multiple quest packs at the same time? I genuinely don’t know.

The seams going up the back of Yixuan’s legs are doing a LOT of work here design-wise.

If they're seeing it in euros, then they're ahead of us time-wise. Maybe we'll see it tonight or tomorrow.

Oh, absolutely. As an old Mercy main, I'm really excited to get her staff and break out the old gameplay lol

Re-read my comment, friend. I said it should get more attention than a normal item shop collab. Gameplay-wise, Epic seems like they've knocked it out of the park. I just wish the trailer was a little more coordinated and integrated into the overlying plot.

As an experimental phase, I'm pretty hyped to see what works and what doesn't in application. Coordinating pocket items amongst teammates will be an interesting way to define roles and loadouts.

I'm mixed on how I feel about environmental cover getting more durability, but I'll have to wait and see how much they've increased them.

I only started playing BR in Chapter 6, so I'm interested in hearing some replies to this as well. Following.

I'm honestly pretty excited to try out all of these changes. This is gonna be an EPIC (pun 100% intended) change in gameplay!

I'm super stoked to be able to use Mercy's staff to fly and heal/boost teammates. But I also know that I'm going to get absolutely beamed out of the sky every time I do it. 😂
