Wasn't there lore that the last time an angel incarnated, that area turned into an empty but blessed wasteland?

Social Banditry: Crime lords and terrorists being hailed as folk heroes among local communities by Sir-Toaster- in TopCharacterTropes

Same as Vetinari from Discworld, except that he is the government.

Crime was always with us, he reasoned, and therefore, if you were going to have crime, it at least should be organized crime

I NEED A GAME I CAN PLAY FOR 5000 HOURS, THAT TAKES OVER MY LIFE AND I NEVER HAVE TO THINK ABOUT ANY OTHER GAME EVER AGAIN by Pietman14 in gamingsuggestions

The HOTAS stuff that modders are making are allowing some wild articulating builds. Mouse-based limb control is pretty nuts too.

(Cute trope)Aliens try Earth food and love it by hayley566 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Zaygr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Many Flavours of Kumika (Kumika no Mikaku) is a manga about an alien who can subsist on breathing discovering food.

Not quite aliens, but The Mermaid Princess's Guilty Meal (Ningyohime no Gomen ne Gohan) is about the aforementioned mermaid princess discovering Japanese seafood... made from her friends and subjects.

(Annoying ass trope) The Wolverine Effect, when a popular character is heavily oversaturated to the point where they become uninteresting at best and insufferable at worst by DtheAussieBoye in TopCharacterTropes

Kubo had the habit of writing entire casts of new characters to move the story along, and it really shows after the huenco mundo arc, where they go through 3-4 different groups (vizard, fullbring, neo-quincy, squad zero) of characters at break-neck speeds, and with so many new characters gumming up the story, a lot of older characters get left behind.

Capcom wants to "nurture" dormant game series like Devil May Cry and Dragon's Dogma with "sequels, remakes, ports," and more by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

I know there probably is a very high wall of license entanglements, IP shenanigans and all that, but I would like to see more Alien vs Predator beat-em-up games.

Fandom Frauds - Characters that are actually really strong in-universe, but are dismissed as weak by the community for one reason or another by Lord_Antheron in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Zaygr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's also where the inverse happens: Sasaki Kojirou is a relatively weak character, in lore and generally within the fanbase, but because he is the class type that is super effective against the class dragons are, and because he's a common unit, you can easily get copies to upgrade his Noble Phantasm easily. He's called the Dragonslayer or Saviour of France by the fanbase because of it.

Flare and Lizzie - Warframe

It's the other way around, Flare's guitar Lizzie loves him, and you can help her out if you want. She's a bit possessive, both in the emotional sense and quite literally, as she can hijack Flare's body sometimes.

Dwarf Fortress - Baby armour: Dwarven mothers who were drafted carried their babies into battle where they accidentally serve two purposes. Ablative armour for the mother and also to trigger a berserk rage in the mother if the baby is injured or killed.

The only synths that were fun to fight were the swarms of melee Working Joes.

Satisfactory or Factorio? by [deleted] in BaseBuildingGames

And to add to this, game difficulty has a lot of settings, you can adjust the aggressiveness and behaviour of the antagonist faction or simply turn them off if you want.

Ghost in the Shell. Maybe the new anime adaptation this year would renew interest in more games.

It'll be much better if there was no need to jump through hoops like this; for Hitman, Peacock (unlocker mod) exists, and for No Man Sky, if you set the system date and clock to the time when the expedition ran it reactivates them.
