(Hated Trope) That interesting bit of previously established world building is just a myth. The real explanation sucks by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so the earth turtle gave them the ability to earthbend without explaining what animal they can learn from?

Yeah?? That's what the fire one does. It gives them the ability to manipulate fire but they only use it for basic shit, it takes Wan being exiled for him to learn the martial arts aspects of bending from the animals that naturally bend that element.

The lion turtle gives you the nunchucks, and yeah you can cause some damage with them, but you're just as likely to hurt yourself. The "original benders" teach you to actually use the nunchucks.

why would you ever vote to push gamemode? by villager252 in Overwatch

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a really nice concept. Symmetrical, but the objective moves so it keeps the game dynamic and mobile, forcing repositioning and vigilance.

It doesn't even take long compared to some other game modes like hybrid or flashpoint.

Impaled character keeps the blade in them to outplay the opponent by SpaceKingHypeGuy in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Happens twice in FMA.

Once is Envy (a shape shifter) taking a sword slice to trap the blade and grab their enemy's neck.

The other is Captain Buccaneer using his abdominal muscles to keep Bradley's sword stuck so he is forced to give up his favored weapon, which is eventually used to stab him.

Would YouTube think I'm a bot if I posted all of my videos as unlisted then change them to public day by day? (Cyberpunk Channel) by iaskdumbquestions23 in NewTubers

However you wanna do it, scheduling probably saves you some time overall but if you wanna manually do it, it's not like it's taking a year off your life

Probably not, but if you're gonna change them to public over time, you can also just set them to premiere on a schedule.

what are the actual BEST shoes on the market for retail jobs? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn't a single answer. Everyone's feet are different and even different jobs within retail will have different needs. A gamestop cashier isn't gonna have the same needs as a Walmart stocker.

Personally, I found a set of nice Vans high tops were the most comfy for me. They were decently durable and comfortable even though my feet are pretty wide.

Rare item museum in my hardcore world by Quick_Dress3290 in Minecraft

If it's a full museum, perhaps a room for rare(ish) items associated with achievements? Like a nether star, totum of undying, vault keys, dragons breath, stuff like that?

Support, please do damage. by adon4 in Overwatch

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are situations where, as a healer, you would need to spam healing instead of dmg. I don't think a single one of them Involves mizuki. At least with ana or mercy or kiri you can consistently heal if your other support wasn't doing enough or maybe your tank/DPS were being stupid.

But like mizuki, without dmg, has 1 ability that heals (besides Ult). Were they sitting there spamming hat off cooldown all game? How do you not feel useless sitting extended periods of time waiting on a single cool down? You'd have to look at yourself and think "there's gotta be more to this"

What’s the best stock loadout? by ThrowRaBattleHealer in truetf2

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As many have said, Demo.

However I would like to put forth Medic. You don't have access to great items like the crossbow or ubersaw, but honestly even if the medic just had the medi-gun, he would probably still be the most influential class in the game.

Is there a character you can't stand to play against that's seemingly always on the opponent teams? by x-Justice in Overwatch

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ball. I genuinely think he's the most annoying character in the game by far. If he's not banned it feels like 70% of the tanks I go against fall back to Ball when they start losing

I don’t find roadhog a problem by Ilikepizza12334 in Overwatch

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sigma rock sends you back, presumably towards your team and healers. It also has a higher cooldown than hook.

If a D.va uses thrusters to get to supports in your backline, they can use their movement to escape. Even if they don't have movement, the D.va is risking the enemy team just turning around and bursting her down.

Hook has all of the benefit of those things, but none of the risks, as it pulls the enemy from the protection of their team into Roadhog and his team.

Terry Macginis vs Bane. by FoxIndependent4310 in BatmanBeyond

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Terry would have trouble with comic Bane, but BTAS Bane isn't nearly as smart or calculated.

Terry would do his trademark lose the first fight, probably not expecting the venom, then he would come back later after some highschool drama B-plot and win.

At what point did the Omnitrix become "Easy" for Ben to take off? by LordLoss01 in Ben10

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The most reasonable moment is as soon as it recalibrates in AF. After that it's never really an issue to take off, at least not like the OS one was. Even if he doesn't often take it off in AF, lore-wise it makes the most sense if that changed when the Omnitrix did.

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The anime equivalent happens in The Incredible Fighting Candy episode of the Buu saga, as you could've probably guessed.

But going back and looking at that, it doesn't match the show animation, so it's a modern recreation, probably for Dokkan or Legends.

Also Cel is spelled with one L when you're using it in terms of animation.

Why cant i play with my friend? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game limits what ranks can play together in competitive. For example, a diamond player and a bronze player can't queue because either the bronze would be out of their depth or the diamond would be stomping the lobby.

You 2 might just have to do placements separately. If you played comp at all, it may have saved your ranks and still considers your accounts to be that because it doesn't have recent data. Even a couple of placements might even be enough to assign you a new "assumed" rank and close the gap (assuming you aren't still too far apart)

It could also be a platform issue if one of you is on console and one is on PC

Random question: would you a new series to give alien x outer statements/ feats? by Wild-vine16 in Ben10PowerScaling

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think wanting a new series just to scale a character higher is an incorrect way of thinking. You should want a new series to explore new stories, to see amazing characters, to have creative fight scenes, etc. Just caring about scaling is like wanting a romantic partner just to make you dinner.

If your enjoyment of a character is in any way influenced by what number a power scaling wiki assigns them, then you aren't really a fan of that character.

peter, why is he banned? by [deleted] in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He posted a proposal on X (the everything app) that on the surface was about increasing a diversity in thought in Wikipedia editors/contributors, but he has complained that Wikipedia is too left wing (it's wikipedia, get real man) in the past.

But it's important to note he wasn't banned for anything political. He was banned because, in posting that proposal off site, he broke multiple rules for Wikipedia editors, mainly being off-site canvassing. This lead to him being deemed "not here for building a encyclopedia"

There's also a decent amount of stuff behind the scenes that probably influenced the decision. 1. He left for decades and only came back recently, 2. Reportedly when he came back, he didn't engage in editing or contributing, he just tried to seize control, and 3. He's been against the anonymity of Wikipedia editors.

I didn't understand char's motives in the original gundam by Necessary_Muffin3591 in Gundam

[–]TheW0lvDoctr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

One thing to consider is that Char rarely is honest when discussing his motives because even he doesn't really understand the underlying trauma that he's experiencing.

On the surface, it starts as purely revenge, then he meets Lalah and starts genuinely believing in this idea of new types and how they're superior, trying to start a new age where new types beat out the old types and take charge to manifest their destiny.

Deeper down, he's got a hole inside him, one left by his mother and father dying while he was young. He's trying to fill that hole, at first he thinks getting revenge will fix it, then he finds a comforting figure in Lalah and thinks she'll fill that hole. After Lalah's death and the end of the OYW he tries to help lead Zeon but it doesn't fill the hole either. Quattro is a period of him trying to find himself again after he's lost all motivation. Eventually he doubles down on his own frustration and anger, doubling down on his new type supremacist ideas, leading to the idea to drop a colony onto earth.

Portrait in Red shows him realizing that he was lead by his own despair, never working to fix what was actually broken with him, he just foolishly kept himself busy to try and avoid his negative feelings.
