In Dark Souls 4 you definitely want to go for a cyberkenetic build

Many will argue that a pure Nanotech build is OP but once you get to the Laser Energy Dragon you're going to be hurting.

Are you saying that if an adaptation of Sherlock Holmes made Irene Adler an idiot and the one who outsmarted Holmes was actually a man that wouldn't matter at all?

Ahh I see. So you're saying "The comics should be followed to a complete T with zero divergence." There should be no digression or leeway for the film makers to use as much or as little comic influence as they want. And especially no question for the audience of what's going to happen, zero suspense whatsoever. We should know EXACTLY what's going to happen in the movie based on the comics. And Thanos should have fucked the god of death too. On camera. Full penetration.

And who did she assault after that?

lol you're slow on the come up aren't you?

She kneed Peter Quill in the balls because she doesn't know this dude and it's a very quick scene to the audience that her death isn't "undone" completely. The character buildup between the two is lost. That's what that scene does. It doesn't undo her shift in allegiance...good lord man

Okay, but so what? Go in and kill it, maybe die once or twice in the process, and get it over with.

Idk how mild inconvenience boss fight somehow evolved to omg this the WORST

Lmfao my dude youre so lost. I literally complimented Marvel for their take on several female leads. That doesnt change the fact that they did not treat female characters well for the majority of the time theyve been around. Black Widow did not receive any decent treatment until TWS, and then Joss Whedon went on to shit on her characterization as he always does, and reduce what was just turned into a complex character, into a glowing example of #menwritingwomen.


What are you even taking about at this point

Joss puts BW on the map in Avengers. Joss is also the guy whos known for writing strong, complex female characters. I already detailed some of this already but you conveniently ignored that. Your reduction of these facts is just sad dude.

Youre also the same dude who just moments ago praised the DCIU. Thats the DC imploding Universe, not extended like marvel but rapidly destroying itself from the inside due to not having a modicum of talent or respect being utilized and failing so miserably in almost every way.

Why the hell do you think Tessa Thompson is preaching diversity as Marvels future? Why do you think Feige said the future is female? Why do you think were getting Lady Thor? Its because there wasnt enough of it in the past and theyre trying to make up for it.

Theres no argument that men havent had their time to shine and more absolutely should be done for female leads. This topic is literally about that.

But Im not going to sit here and let you spout bullshit like Marvel hasnt done some awesome things with their girls along the way.

By comparison, look at the DCEU. Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, and Mera have been shown to be incredible badasses from the beginning and not treated as that other member of the team in any of their appearances, so when they have WW face off against Steppenwolf, or Mera take on a bunch of Atlantean Assassins, it feels natural. Then theres Black Canary and the Huntress who were introduced well in BoP (although some people bitch about that being an SJW movie just because all the leads are female) and were also well written, strong women.



You did NOT just pat DC on the back for being a bubbling mess of bad characters in mostly terrible movies

This shows me that youre completely out to lunch here.

Black Widow has been set up to be a badass from day 1, which was 10 years ago in Iron Man 2. Where she was revealed to be a femme fatale super spy that could take on a compound of guards by herself with ease while Tony Starks head of security could barely manage to take out one jobber.

Then in Avengers shes shown to be quite comfortable to be tied to a chair but still gets all the information she needs from __Eastern European General__. These skills are also highlighted when its tasked on her to recruit to hulk and then also when she tricks the God of Mischief himself into revealing part of his plan.

Her strength and what she brings to the table is obvious to anyone whos been paying attention. Its not usually as visual as a character like Thor but that doesnt mean she hasnt been shown to kick serious ass in her own way. The writers and directors know how to use all their pieces though and show off their individual strengths in a way that makes sense for the character. Shes not going to be taking on Thanos in a 1v1 but she can take on a couple 7 foot aliens with their own weapons (and a little help from friends).

Black Widow is the most developed female character in the MCU thus far but others have their own value and moments too. Give credit where its deserved, Marvel knows how to use their characters. Theyre not neglected

The Wasp, Pepper, Gamora, Nebula, Shuri and Okoye for example are all very strong characters and have done a lot with what theyre given.

The females have been there and doing awesome things from the jump, and yeah it does feel well deserved at the end to go damn look at all the ladies we have accumulated on the field, lets shine some attention on them

They just have to share to screen with a lot of dudes and have been slow to get their own films.

And still anyone that hates that scene can take their Iron Man and Captain America action figures and play on their own.

How are people denying this?

If I wanted to I literally just have to click on a game's icon on the desktop and it will start running

Consoles have proprietary UX meaning literally every game on them will work exactly the same, not need to be configured to the system in any meaningful way and playing with or even just talking to your friends is seamless and instant. Consoles also have a Suspended game feature now that means you can shut off the system and the game you were last playing will boot up exactly where you left it.

PCs, are either built by the consumer or prebuilt and not nearly as convenient as consoles. Games can be purchased on many different storefronts, meaning there is no total cohesion Between all your games. To supple my this PC gamers almost always run a program like Discord to keep track of where their friends are and talk with them. The benefits of PCs are the choice it gives the consumer and The open ended nature of it.

This is basic common sense.

This is exactly what Im taking about lol

Yes there was an awesome female power scene in Infinity War too.

Guess what guys, its all one side of the same coin.

Saying the one in Endgame is forced is completely missing the point and making you look extremely petty.

The Russos absolutely went out of their way make a point with that scene and all the better for it. Male audiences seeing a screen full of male superheroes teaming up isnt forced because its been the norm for decades now. Cap/Iron Man/Thor have checked every fan service box on the fucking list and then some by themselves.

God forbid female audiences get a scene showing all the heroes they can identify on scene at once.

A couple scenes and characters here and there is just a drop in the bucket to what is a predominately male roaster and male focus across all the films. The fact that a screen full of female characters is so quickly seen as unnatural and forced proves my point completely. Get used to it duders. Its not gonna hurt you to let females steal the show.

Do you mean the Endgame scene? They did kind of do a shit job building any good female heroines over a decade though. I actually like Captain Marvel and Carol as a character, but that's about it in terms of major powerful women.

I would be all for a big Girl Power scene if it actually had enough people worth a damn.

Black Widow
Gamora
Nebula
Wasp
Scarlett Witch
Pepper
Okoye
Shuri
Valkyrie

Is that everyone? Theyre all awesome in their own way and some are better than the rest. Nebula and BW the shit IMHO

For those don't know what I'm talking about it's that trend these days on Youtube videos to take 30 seconds from much later in the video and put it at the start of the video as a "preview of what's to come" kind of opening.

WHO is this for and does anyone actually like this? Just show me the fucking video! if your video is interesting I'll see that part of it eventually when we naturally come upon it and it'll make sense within context.

Its very hit and miss. The technical aspects of the app are really impressive imho. The effects and how smooth it runs, all the different things you can do.

But the actual UI is dumb as hell I gotta agree. Theres ZERO information for peoples videos on anyones profile unless you click on them so basically youre just trying to go by the thumbnail. So many times Ill see a part 1 video go to that persons profile and give up trying to find part 2 because itd a rats nest.

No, it really doesn't. I love both movies, but Infinity War is a herculean achievement in that it had no right being as tightly focused as it was, considering the high probability of clusterfuckery. Even the Russos couldn't keep Endgame from finally starting to feel bloated and sloppy in the second and third acts.

Endgame is IMHO has some of the biggest achievements because of how phenomenally it circles back over 10 years of film to put a perfect cap on this arc of movies. While still being an extremely entertaining movie and having some of the best moments in the series history.

If you dont think the Avengers vs Thanos wasnt one of the most well deserved, amazing things ever put on the big screen the. I just feel sorry for you

But regardless. People cant appreciate either movie or have a discussion these days without putting one down. The internet doesnt know how to talk about shit without making it a competition.
