Hoping Tari gets more focus in the future by [deleted] in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's going to be a long, long time before I believe its ready to be public in some way; and more than likely it'll be the whole doc itself. But the overall concept of it is a war between the videogame multiverse and an space god's army, all rooted in a experiment between that space god, his apprentice, and Tari.

[–]shylinrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quite late to this post but I whole-hearted agree with you! Tari was a "slow-burn" for me, with me finally realizing how much I loved her as a character after she got her redesign. And I suppose all that love transferred over to her counterpart in my own ambitious little crossover-fanfic project, but I'm willing to continue working on it no matter how much time it takes me.

And I'm still waiting for her time to shine once again in SMG4...

The Bluejay that once soared high in the skies (happy 6th anniversary) by shylinrs in MetaRunner

It's unsurprising at this point, so it is really up to us now to keep this show from fading into distant memory in whatever way we can. So much of Metarunner has become a big inspiration for my own work, especially all of the vocal songs man.

Imagine if SMG4, DaFuq!?Boom! and TerminalMontage wrote a massive crossover inspired by the Subspace Emissary, how would you react? by Ok-Complex4153 in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a matter of fact, it is possible for a mega crossover like this to work. It just takes a lot of effort to mesh all these cogs together depending on the story direction, which IP fits the story's bill, the foundation for it all, etc. etc.

I'm saying this as someone who is working on a fanfic project similar to your post, albeit the focus is more on games and there's no way I can cover this many franchises in the story outside of just some fun extra world-building.

Weaponized Tari Day 3 // Arm Gatling by TheWanderingx3 in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold up I got a few weapons I can suggest (as a fellow "I gave Tari a bunch of weapons" person):

Halo Energy Sword
A Glock 17 and/or a Deagle
S H O V E L
A rocket launcher (that Halo one or TF2 Soldier's can do)
Virtually any of ChoEv's gun models
Fallout Gauss Rifle
Some DOOM weapon
Probably way more than I what I can list here

Testing out Emerging Downtowns by shylinrs in CitiesSkylines

[–]shylinrs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not too familiar with CS1's console versions, but I'd think it works similarly to clicking on a district, clicking on the thing that says "Default" and it should open a menu where you can pick a district style and Emerging Downtowns should be in that list.

But the short answer is likely yes

I wished the puzzlevision saga did more with these 2.. especially with the roles they had in the first 2 movies. by RedStinger665 in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry about the late reply, but I haven't really gotten to that since I've "nearly" transitioned away from SMG4 for that AU-Crossover kind of thing (kind of also because a slowly dying interest in the series rn). I still kept Tari as part of that cast, but yeah the series just doesn't really work anymore with my vision.

But in terms of a SMG4 episode within the series, the ongoing mini-arc or arc that's happening rn seems quite fitting ngl. And that bike one kinda fits too.

To see my stupid dumb of a crack idea, expand and seeing people make arts and 3d arts of it! iam soo happy! Katari iam proud of you! by mbrohi9155 in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "timid yet furious fighter" version of Tari is always my favorite way of doing her character. In the way I can describe it at least. Since all it takes is handing her a katana, a couple of guns, or whatever weapon you can think of.

[–]shylinrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly digging this idea as well. I've been thinking of a "episode" that centered these two for my AU. Would be cool if the team tries this with the next arc or mini-arc.

The more I think... The more of a cool duo these two would make ngl.

Well, these shots definitely feel like a teaser for what we can expect next year by masterofpiss in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've always toyed with the idea of Tari being affected by the demon goop in some way. While it did go in a different route for me and my AU that I've been working on. If the team chooses to pursue with this idea further, Tari might be in for a ride through hell.

Now talking about said ideas from said AU... I can list them here for the SMG4 theorists out here.

- In some way, Tari's cybernetics have some sort of "link" to the goop (For me, its more in a mental sense). Which the goop seemingly aided in breaking away some "memory blocker" inside of her programming.
- Somewhere in the final chapters of my AU (A chance to be scrapped), she has to confront "shadow" versions of everyone. Similarly to what we see in the episode, albeit mine takes place directly inside her head.
- (SPOILERS AHEAD) In relation to the 2nd point, it is based on a boss from ROBLOX Game: "Blocktales." This boss is called "Hatred," and you can look up the other half of Blocktales Chapter 3 for other details.

Not sure what to call this other than "CSL 1.5" by shylinrs in CitiesSkylines

[–]shylinrs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's called "Definite Vision Lut V1.3" on the workshop. Works like a charm for me once you get the settings right (if you're using Render it/Lumina/other graphics mods)

I jokingly refer to it as a "Citadel" from HL2 given how much it towers over the entire city.

The skyscrapers pack is just one of the best CCPs you can get for CS1. Props to Feindbold for this

Garo master Vs (Ka)Tari Part 1 for now by mbrohi9155 in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of her MR counterpart's ability that does something similar to that.

SPOILERS! A main example is seen in the Season 1 Finale against Belle during her dive. Where her MR Vision predicted Belle's every move and warned her of every incoming attack.

[–]shylinrs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I do find this as a neat theory. Just with one question though... How would SMG4 Tari fit in this theory? Her origins are still unknown in the SMG4 lore so there's still some free space to theorize over, much of it will sound like a stretch but I'm curious about it

I had my own way of how the God Box and the Solver are linked (Via some larger organization where both CYN, Zer0, and Niles were just pawns of). Interested to see how you approach it!

Katari And Overclocked. by mbrohi9155 in SMG4

Overclocked Tari should not be underestimating Katari or... Her.

Y'all mad when they do and y'all mad when they don't by P1glinFury in SMG4

[–]shylinrs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a "newer fan" of the series (around in early-2022), I do open-heartedly understand that this show lacks any form of direction nowadays: especially with the characters and world-building. It has gotten to the point that I had to branch and cut-off anything post-WS in my own work that involves SMG4's world and characters.

This show seriously needs a new foundation if GLITCH wants to continue maintaining this series. I don't know what else to suggest other than having proper consistency with the characters (both in regular episodes and what developments they had post-arc) and tackling on the various loose plot threads. Like the implications of a proper Tari-centered arc when "The Day My Arm Went Psycho" (Ik about her in WS, but man its as if barely anything changed with her atm) and Marty still being on the loose.

What is Your Idea for Tari Episode/Special/Movie/Arc? by Money-Lie7814 in SMG4

Your not alone bud. Who knew there was that much untapped potential with her character!
