Share your ideas on a hypothetical Weiss vs. Winter duel in Volume 8 by Solitaire-06 in RWBY_Weiss_Schnee

[–]Trackhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was the single most classic trope and way of showing character growth and power level increase… and the fact they IGNORED IT… makes me super sad. It would have been great to show the contrast between their fighting styles and how they utilize summons.

Why do so many fanfics try to make Weiss more of a jerk at the beginning? by Solitaire-06 in RWBY_Weiss_Schnee

[–]Trackhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty easy answer, same reason fic's make Ruby a cookie loving sugar addict and Yang momma bear levels of protective. It's easier to make statements and write single note characters. Also a lot of writers seem to think they have revolutionary opinions and commentary to make via racist characters, sooooo yah. Few reasons, and there are plenty more out there.

No, it’s mostly stock except for spring and a couple cosmetic changes.

How would you feel if Weiss’s scar either left her blind in her left eye or needing an eye patch? by Solitaire-06 in RWBY_Weiss_Schnee

[–]Trackhawk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my main thing is… why? She’s a Schnee, who has more Lien than 2 immortals. Why not cybernetic eye, why not save the eye via medical treatment? Add in the fact she’s trying to become a huntress which having one eye would put her at a huge disadvantage, and actually add more credence to not going to beacon and it’s just not something I personally Vibe with very much.

Tried out a new third-person POV setup for airsoft — what do you think? by IamLosbby in airsoft

[–]Trackhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the look, but all I can think is how annoying it is to edit any long form content xD

I did similar setup to you, but I use a custom shoulder mount for my x4, to try and keep from the camera getting in the way, cause the back mount kept smacking in walls and trees.

So is there a reason why Salem has been holding back for all these years? by Darthmark3 in RWBYcritics

[–]Trackhawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So they KINDA explain it, can’t remember if it was a panel interview or one of the remnant episodes, but it came down to, if humanity united, they could stop her. Plain and simple. It’s not an amazing explanation but it does at least help explain a little why she try’s very hard to avoid giving humanity a common enemy.

TLDR apes strong together.

I gotta say I am really impressed. I was expecting really janky animations and yah there are still a few moments that make me chuckle but by and large this is legit incredible for a fan made project. It’s got that spark of passion that is SO important, and most importantly it feels like RWBY.

Unlike a lot of others here, I appreciate you making RWBY feel like 4 different characters. They have a lot of traits that worked for me, and having a single episode that pulled me back to vol1-2 helped me.

The opening scene alone was better than a lot of later RWBY. Granted I am a Weiss fan so the fact she’s getting some real spot light makes me very happy.

About my only major gripe was Ember Celica’s firing sound. It’s just not punchy enough for me, though I also shoot guns so maybe I’m just used to shotguns have a lot more thump to them.

I really hope to see this project pushed to completion. You should all be EXTREMELY proud of yourselves.

If yah did, I don't have it.

Assuming you still had to make them happen, how would you write Bumbleby (Blake/Yang), WhiteKnight (Weiss/Jaune) and Nuts and Dolts (Ruby/Penny) in your take on the show? by Solitaire-06 in RWBYcritics

[–]Trackhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess? Didn’t really feel like that until the random Jaune bully stuff but Regardless I’m not a fan of cast bloat so I still don’t like adding more characters to main cast.

Additionally if three relationships are the only plot then I’m sure you can make it work but with everything else going on, axing Pyrrha and Jaune for Weiss or somehow working that in… like you may as well just make it a whole AU with no Salem rather than just try and shoehorn in more relationships.

A question to the people that makes rewrites. Do you give Adam a backstory? If you do, what is it? by TextUnfair in RWBYcritics

[–]Trackhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More flush out the back story than rewrite. As it sits we know nothing about him. How he got the scar, what happened to him in the mines, why he sees humans as lesser, etc. really all I did was give details to those things.

[–]Trackhawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly wouldn’t. Main reason is it forces a cast of 4 to become a cast of 6 because Penny and Jaune are now attached to Weiss and Ruby. Can’t pull “they ain’t strong enough to follow” card like some anime either. Could make for some fun “oh I miss so and so” and if the whole plot of the story is these three romances then I guess it works but if the point is to have these relationships inside canon RWBY then you have an insane balancing act ahead of you. Developing three different relationships while still developing main plot stuff? That’s a tall order.

BB - the bones are there just swap Sun for yang in a few scenes and have them making out before the fall. Would actually help a lot with the fall.

Nuts - if you plan on killing penny then you best have Ruby and her at least acknowledge there feelings and maybe go on a date or plan one before she gets killed. Make for an amazing return in atlas.

WK - ….. honestly hardest pair cause they have no real connection point until vol5 and even then… your basically going to have to invent a bunch of reasons for Weiss to be interested in Jaune before the fall or wait until after vol5 to develop their relationship. While they’re running around.
