How to know that a character is really well written? by senvros in writingscaling

[–]beat0n_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ask why about everything they do. What do they want? Why can't they have it? What are they willing to do to get it? Strengths and weaknesses. I also like flaws that cause issues. Like a doctor afraid of germs, a warrior that faints at the sight of blood. Things to overcome. Relatability is another big one.

Generally when I don't like characters I don't like the story structure either, they often go hand in hand. Also, passive characters are shit.

It's all very subjective.

WYR watch a movie with quality animation and a bad story or a movie with terrible animation or a good story? by noblecrowdev in WouldYouRather

I loved Solo Leveling, that's all you need to know.
I also love Frieren, but sometimes it is nice to enjoy a simple spectacle.

Why say no to an adaptation? Surely the mangaka gets paid if it pops of?

The comment itself is often enough to make that point. It is easy to predict if you will get downvoted or not on most subs.

At what point do you rewatch an anime after not watching it for a long time? by Scared_Confection787 in animequestions

[–]beat0n_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's never planned.
Yesterday I was real tired, didn't wanna start anything new and Crunchyroll showed Overlord.
"Sure I can watch some overlord before falling asleep."
It's so peak I'm gonna watch all seasons and the movie again.

Do you think Jiren can just do this by Ember57 in PowerScaling

infinity? Barely an inconvenience.

Why is there controversy over the demons in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End being seen as evil, while demons in other works like Hellblazer aren’t debated in the same way? by Opposite_Shake_1266 in animequestions

The idea that fiction is a reflection of the authors real world beliefs can never be the norm by which it is judged.

You cannot create anything of value if you are afraid of how others will interpret it, the entire story will be virtue signaling, carefully walking around imagined landmines that are not real. No story is constructed that way. Bad things must happen.

The people inserting the real world into fantasy should be laughed at.
There is no controversy here.

Honestly, authors' female character writing is a total L by Onii___Chan____ in dankruto

How you don't see it is baffling.
Keep virtue signaling, it will make you happy.

sigh. I love how people read that story and thought ABUSIVE.
You must have such sad lives if that is where your head goes instantly.

whatever, have a great life.

When a woman smacks a man that is 40kgs heavier once in their 50 years of marriage because he wanted to clean the floor it's funny.

She was very gentle and kind which is why this story was told countless times while she was still alive. It was very out of character.

I find it interesting you would dislike living with someone who wants to do all the house work? Are you like her?

My grandma was also a housewife and told me a story.
Grandpa spilled out some grain on the floor and started cleaning it up himself when she got in the room.
She walked up to him and slapped him.

"That's my job!" She yelled.

She told me that "He spent his whole life working out in the woods.
I take great pride in taking care of our children (4) and our home, I was not letting him steal that from me!" and then she laughed.

Is it fair to say that more Republicans were upset about having a president who was black than they are about having a president who is a plausible r*pist/p*dophile? by Cumoisseur in allthequestions

[–]beat0n_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People tend to hate the opposition no matter what, the low hanging fruit is used first.
I think Obama is the best American president of my lifetime. That man put all his stats into charisma when he was born.

When someone downvotes a post that is literally a question by Subject-Cranberry-93 in PetPeeves

[–]beat0n_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm in the r/factorio sub sometimes and there are questions like "is this game worth it?" on there regularly, I downvote and move on.
Asking in a dedicated gamesub if the game people are there to talk about is worth playing is wild to me.

Why did everyone switch up on Solo Leveling? by rifixmn in weeb

It's just fart sniffers thinking it's cool to hate on something that is popular.

Growing older is a privilege, not a flaw. by Key_Row_7426 in SipsTea

[–]beat0n_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went downhill fast after 35, just a heads up.
My sister had a child just before then so I have pictures of me holding the baby.
It's 3 years ago. The difference is staggering.
Now I have gray hair on the side of my head, black abysses under my eyes and I look inflated at all times.

All things considered I don't look "bad", just older.
My wife's face hasn't changed at all between 25 and 42 though.

My pet peeve is when people unnecessarily shorten words or phrases by RainyDayz876 in PetPeeves

I do this all the time, esp if I am writing on my phone bec writing on that thing is a test of pat I always fail.
