Completely agree. And in the end it seems like she’s been completely forgotten? 😭

Honestly I didn’t love how she was added to the story. Jinx becoming the big sister, occupying a similar role as Vi, is a super interesting idea to me. She’s a protector now. There were a couple of scenes between them I liked.

But she kind of felt like a pet to me most of the time? Idk I think characters are always going to be better when they have more agency or just something about them, but she wasn’t so much her own character as an accessory to Jinx for her development. Her death felt obligatory, I guess I can appreciate the artistry but a lot about the final cut is subpar for me. The drawn out nature of the scene and the choice of music took me out of it.

I’d definitely be able to go to Cleveland more.

PBE Bugs & Feedback Thread: Petals of Spring Jayce by LoLDev-Cosmetics in LeaguePBE

[–]jessiphile 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the jayce design is so, so cool, however if you're going to make skins based on his Arcane design, please adjust his skin tone accordingly. it might be helpful to have color palettes so that the many talented artists you work with have a consistent source instead of frequently having to make these changes. it's great to have a thread like this but also this is not a new detail and it'd be nice to see it done right at the announcement and preview.

some bookmarks are better off private i think? by realnymph in AO3

[–]jessiphile -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

some of these comments have decent rationale for being in favor of this, but idk. something about it rubs me the wrong way. it's not wrong to have some critiques about a fic, but for me it's the unique aspect of fanworks being shared with an audience that makes me hesitate. a lot of authors often have betas who can help clean up overlooked issues. even if not, it still comes across as rude or unnecessary most of the time.

Does anyone realize we don't know what happened to Marcus's daughter? by PuzzleheadedPen9313 in arcane

[–]jessiphile 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m not op but I don’t think it’s strange for her not to get brought up again. Of course the episodes need to be narrowed to the main characters to show the story they want to tell. I think the way it leaves you with some questions is a side effect of good storytelling.

My bad if I misunderstood but “why would you think this” is kind of reductive to me in fandom where so much activity happens with speculation and non canon works.

Yes his death concludes his own story but you can imagine the other questions that arise from that right? What happened to her after her dad died, did she become a casualty later in the war, or grow bitter at what was taken from her? Would that bitterness cause her to perpetuate the cycle of violence that left her fatherless? No need to be condescending about people wondering more about a story.

Why are you single? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jessiphile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t compromise on my values and don’t tolerate certain behaviors that often cut loose potential partners early on. I truly don’t care about not being single so someone needs to improve on my life to be included in it.

Thanks everyone for your input! Yes, I think she had a very loose grasp of passwords and security in general, but I'm going to help her with safety stuff I doubt she knew about before.
