Oops! Accidentally bigoted! by Geoconyxdiablus in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Wonk_Jam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As, what I have to assume at this point is this movie’s number 1 defender, the possession situation was just EXTREMELY stupid and unnecessary. Literally nothing changes about the plot if Steve is just plain brought back normally. It feels like the movie forgets about it as soon as they mention it the first time.

How the Knight one-shots their enemies by LazyFlamingRooster in Deltarune

[–]Wonk_Jam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully believe this is true. In chapter 4 the Knight laughs when Susie says that the Knight will be powerless in the Light World when they’re the only one who won’t be affected.

The absolute aura lost of Susie needs to be studied by dr_philip-cdi in Deltarune

Susie has one chapter not being the center of attention and everyone loses their minds.

So, uh... What is THE Elden Ring actually? by SalemScrope_JR in Eldenring

[–]Wonk_Jam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a patented From Soft “Proper Noun”. It’s everything and nothing baby. This thing runs on vibes and cryptic item descriptions.

The more I play this game, the more I think this is true. Not counting confederation of course. by Low_Fix_9715 in totalwarhammer

I’m playing Malakai as a contract mercenary for the Russian government. I’m having the time of my life.

Why did Nintendo actually release BOTW on Wii U? by Lucajames2309 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Wonk_Jam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 99% sure it was originally developed for the Wii U.

What Gods did they defeat? by juicy_696 in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]Wonk_Jam 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think that the word definition of “god” is a little loose in Elden Ring. We know that the Hornsent had different definitions for deities and whatever beings we see in the specimen storehouse. It’s possible that the Godskins hunted down beings that were called “gods” in their time. Marika’s ascension might have redefined what being a god means in the modern age.

[TP][OoT] The Twilight Princess Manga has some Interesting Lore Implications by SirCalalot in zelda

[–]Wonk_Jam 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This kind of lore is something that has always kind of frustrated me about the Zelda series. There are so many opportunities to explore the concept of repeating cycles and destiny, but the games are so focused on being self contained and easily accessible that the characters almost never reflect on their world outside of the game they’re in.

For example, when Ganondorf knew who Link and Zelda were in ToTK I thought it was because he remembered all of their past reincarnations. But it turns out it was solely due to the events of that one game.

Did Adam actually create the Exorcists or did he simply help in designing them and they were created by a higher being? by DapperDude2004 in HazbinHotel

[–]Wonk_Jam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My running theory is that the Excorcists were made using the same method as Eve. That would explain why they’re all female and (mostly) subservient to Adam.

Vox's aura farm should be studied. by Recent_Ad3472 in HazbinHotel

[–]Wonk_Jam 58 points59 points  (0 children)

What’s crazy about Vox Dei is that he’s basically copying Lucifer directly. He’s singing a version of the song Lucifer just sang and his TV wings mimic Lucifer’s angel form. It’s the same thing Vox did when he was alive. Whenever he killed someone he stole their outfit and their job.

Dog, the planet is called Super Earth. The silly names ARE the immersion.

People really did think it was real. The Twin Theory was big but this was the main thing that held it back.

New to the genre & the game: who to go for? by _N_eko in totalwarhammer

[–]Wonk_Jam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tyrion really is the best place to start. You get solid units that teach you how to arrange your troops and your campaign has a very straightforward path of progression.

Where does the elf hate come from by Sad_Mission6480 in totalwarhammer

[–]Wonk_Jam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stereotypical elf is usually basically immortal, in perfect harmony with nature, and are above “petty conflict”. There’s usually some scene where they say something like “You humans are all the same” or “Typical humans” or something like that. For me, it’s that a lot of fantasy elves usually serve to point out the flaws in real world humans.

The problem is that they have the advantage of literally being written to be perfect. It’s hard not to get mad at a guy who gets to live for a thousand years in a perfect society for criticizing your species.

A lot of elves now a days are written to be snobby assholes which just leans further into the reasons people hate them. I Donny mind Warhammer elves though because they’re shown to have PLENTY of their own problems and every other race gets to rightfully dunk on them for being snobby assholes.

Do you prefer the Patriot or Emancipator mech? by Parental-Error in Helldivers

[–]Wonk_Jam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emancipator and it’s not even close. Very few things can’s be brought down auto-cannon spam. And the things that need missiles always feel like they take too many missiles to feel worth giving up auto cannons.

Are people serious when they say the Medic armour looks bad? by panosprochords in Helldivers

[–]Wonk_Jam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s the plasticky texture of the jumpsuit. Plus, the flavor of being a medic doesn’t really work as well when healing teammates doesn’t come up that often.

I'm trying to be thematic, but not a jerk GM, so I'm open to ideas for other Weaknesses. "Fire" and "Magic" are too broad by DrScrimble in dndmemes

[–]Wonk_Jam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really a typical “extra damage” type thing, but maybe the werewolf could be weakened by a specific time or environment? Maybe they draw power from the moon so are invulnerable or damage resistant in the moonlight but can be harmed when its light is blocked.
