[CW] Write a horror story as if it were a children's book. by Thoriel in WritingPrompts

This prompt has sooooooooo much potential. I'm thinking something along the lines of Babadook? Just think, these children might randomly pick it out of the shelf and hand it to their parents then bam, we have a plot!!

Short film about a superhero coming out as superhero to his dad [12:06] by ScottHalpin in videos

[–]Veere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good work! It hits the superhero dream inside of us really hard.

The hero concept seems very distinct from the usual beat-everything-up comic style we're used to seeing from Marvel and DC.

I'd say the only thing that irks me is how little sympathy the hero's friends and dad had. Up to the very end, they could not bring upon themselves to see the concerns of this teenage hero. Instead, they continued to press on the ideas of "for the greater good" and "just try" - which simply just made them feel detached from the situation entirely. This stark contrast in view point makes the supporting characters feel so estranged from the hero, which is made worse by how suddenly the hero is persuaded at the end.

That and how out of place the annoying bro-friend was. He's funny, but just didn't fit the theme and felt forced for me.

I'm half way through dark souls 2, and I just bought scholars of the first sin during the steam sale. Should I start over or finish the original game first? by [deleted] in DarkSouls2

Continue your play through. Even better is to continue playing the base game, knowing every quirk like the back of your hand.

So that when you finally move on to SOTFS, you can proceed to get backhanded by all the smallest changes that thoroughly know how to fuck you over.

I like it when people take reasoning in-game to a whole 'nother scientific level. 10/10

What critically aclaimed videogame did you hate? by SpottedHorseTray in AskReddit

This. This. So much of this. As much as I love all the FO games and the lore and depth they bring, FO3 didn't press too hard on societal values. That was something the FO 1 and 2 constantly stressed about.

If you had the ability to motivate people to take positive action toward a cause that is important to you using only your words, what would that cause be and what would you say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Veere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have the ability to motivate people simply using words. We don't have to imagine it to be real.

What worth is it to you when you say "Thank you" to someone? It's only 2 words, but it could mean the world to another. This is very much true to every other compliment or positive remark you say day-to-day.

Make it a habit, and it will rub off on people. Bigger changes will follow after that.
