I'm fine with it being edgy (in fact, I applaud it), but in the first four episodes alone, we have Charlie dropping the n-word, the use of gay slurs, and an entire episode making trans jokes

The whole point of Charlie doing that is that he wasn't actually being racist, just quoting a black dude because he's an idiot.

The main articles are still written by people, but there's a quick answers section which is just bullshit.

The Hollow Knight moved their wiki because of answers like this. The only answer that's not outright wrong is the third one and it doesn't actually answer the question.

what? all I said was how I didn't like how it was portrayed as an overnight thing.

if they just had text on the bottom that said something like, "weeks later", it would have been more digestible, for me.

Oh, my bad, I hit the last unseen post and didn't realize there was a second page. I was responding to post 50.

One could argue he was waiting for the oppertune moment. We know he killed Ronan for the Power Stone, he took the Space Stone from Loki. Went to Knowhere to get the Reality Stone. Then took Gamora to Vormir for the Soul Stone. Fought Tony, Strange, the Guardians and Spiderman over Time Stone. And finally killed Vision for the Mind Stone.

In Endgame he sat on his ass waiting for either of his daughters to bring him the gauntlet.

You said he was waiting for the opportune moment and then just described the plot of Infinity War.

One could argue that waiting until the Avengers had done all the heavy lifting and then attacking with the full force of his army to get them all at once is also the opportune moment.

I want to know why they were able to invent and continue building things like robots, flying warships, power armor, Synths, and laser guns, but couldn't figure out how to get any of the pre-existing cars to run or build a house out of anything but loose sheet metal and plywood

That's just Bethesda. Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 have people building houses and restoring society. And in Fallout 2, you actually help fix a car and drive it around, though it's noted to be exceptionally rare to have a working one there. The fuel cell regulator you need to fix it is said to burn out pretty frequently by accelerating too fast, so it's likely not a lot of them are still around.

PoopPotato posted...

My head Canon is that the cars use fusion cores and the major factions would rather use the scrapped cores for electricity /power armor/weapons.

That's not headcanon, it's just actual canon lol. The Highwayman you drive in FO2 is fueled with small energy cells or microfusion cells. The energy cells are batteries and the microfusion cells are "self-contained fusion plants." Both are also ammo for energy weapons.

RetuenOfDevsman posted...

Please tell me that's not canon.

Please tell me they don't expect me to believe these robots are running on vacuum tubes lol.

pegusus123456 posted...

They do have transistors (one of the devs point out way back that robots in the first two games would probably not take such high damage from EMP grenades if they ran on vacuum tubes), they're just not ubiquitous.

Roxas is Soras Nobody. But at some point he developed his own heart and is now in a replica body. So technically hes his own person now. And same with Xion.

Ventus heart was fractured by Master Xehanort into Light and Dark(Vanitus). This broke Ventus and Sora as a newborn shared his heart with Ventus to keep him alive.

later when beaten at the end of BBS, Ventus retreated into Soras heart. But he was always his own person.

also since Ventus heart was inside Sora at the time of becoming a Nobody, Roxas is also part Ventus which is why he resembles him

God, I forget just how incredibly stupid this series is.

After Ellie, probably.

Before Ellie, Kratos would not like Joel.

LonelyStoner posted...

Holy shitthe horrible aiming aside, was that supposed to be Wesker? They really never shouldve taken the CGI realism route with those movies. They all look cheap and awful.

It wasn't Wesker.

Like others have said, the first movie is fine. Not really a RE game but whatever. They get dumber and dumber though. I stopped watching after the third one, I just couldn't get past how astronomically stupid it was that Umbrella kept giving additional superpowers to a woman who hates them.

I will say that the best thing from the movie series is the company slogan they use for Umbrella: "Our company is life itself." It's just perfectly fitting.

devilminion posted...

If that's the case, then there must've been a line in DDD that I misconstrued as meaning something else entirely.

That's fine, no line in DDD makes any sense.

devilminion posted...

I seem to recall time travel being used to bring some of them into the future though. That and vessels to place their souls in?
Like, if it was so easy to re-nobody members who "died", couldn't he have just continued to do it over and over again? They made a big deal out of trying to recruit Riku, when he seemed to have the ability to bring back previous members.

No, there was time travel, but it wasn't for the original Organization members. He just used it to bring his past selves back.

ninjaman44 posted...

They also took way too long to reveal that he didn't actually hurt Dane

I hated this. He was way more interesting with the possibility that he did do it. He was actually my favorite character to start with because he did seem like a psychopath that just so happened to be on the "good" side. But it turns out he's just an idiot.

ninjaman44 posted...

Then there's the Enclave scientist getting away with something apparently super valuable (damn that turret sucked) and not having any one of them go after him. The Enclave are supposed to be a pretty big deal. Showing them to be super incompetent before they even play a larger part in the story was odd.

The turrets are apparently pretty accurate to the game tbf.

And the Enclave did put out a massive bounty on him.

Trumble posted...

Wow, can't believe this is actually still going lol. I expected it to maybe reach 100.

devilminion posted...

Sure. Can you clear up the part about Organization 13 needing 13 members, but being okay when the members start to drop like flies, only for Xehanort to do some time-traveling shenanigans to infuse his hair into members that died, thereby bringing them back to life?

Xehanort didn't bring them back to life, Sora did that. By killing both the Nobody and the Heartless, the body and heart find each other again and that person just comes back. Xehanort just convinced/forced most of the Organization to become Nobodies again.

Don't forget Data Sora and Vanitus

The forehead guy from The Office lmao

Huh, the wiki says that this is referring to Rainn Wilson, but I don't think he has much of a forehead.

If anyone's curious, Sterolizer's true self also comes out on GameFAQs because he acts the exact same way in the Discord.

The Rock

He just looks weird and he plays the same character every time.

I'd like to know how they were able to make advanced electronics and robots without transistors.

They do have transistors (one of the devs point out way back that robots in the first two games would probably not take such high damage from EMP grenades if they ran on vacuum tubes), they're just not ubiquitous.

loafy013 posted...

That is nothing when it comes to being advanced. They can heal broken bones with a shot.

Sure but I don't know if that has anything to do with their nuclear development.

I also enjoyed the trilogy.

But boy, I do not remember the bread slicer.

LonelyStoner posted...

Theyre both great. The Undead Nightmare dlc of the first one is also great. I genuinely dont get the people who say the gameplay is a slog due to realism. The whole point of games is to immerse the player and make them feel like theyre connected to the game.

Taking five seconds to loot a body when there are ten bodies and your NPC friends are yelling at you to hurry up and move to the next question objective does not immerse me, it just annoys the fuck out of me.

Compsognathus posted...

But had considerably more advanced nuclear development.

To give an idea of how advanced, their cars run on nuclear batteries.

It's funny, there's a "gas" station in one of the series' episodes, but if you look closely at the sign, they're selling coolant.

MC_BatCommander posted...

I don't think they have a canonical reason, it was just a neat aesthetic they wanted to use

I'm pretty sure it's this, but my best guess is that the presence of the Enclave meant that they made sure America stayed the way they wanted it.

Nazanir posted...

I hated Thanos in Endgame.

In Infinity War he was constantly pushing the plot forward, and was the reason why the Avengers had to do things, like Thor traveling to Nidavallir to obtain Stormbreaker.

In the first 5 minutes of the movie, Thanos is portrayed as an absolute threat, beating down the Hulk without even using the stones. Now I am not gonna go wether he COULD beat Hulk, but for the purposes of his character reveal it works, he is immediatly established as a force to be reckoned with.

Yet in Endgame he just sits back and doesn't do fuck all, literally waiting for the stones to fall into his lap, rather than pursue them. Isn't this basically his life long obsession?

What? The Endgame Thanos is just doing the same thing the original one did. The entire franchise up to that point was Thanos sitting back, waiting for other people to bring him the Stones.

It was really good. It's debatable if it deserves to win, but it's not a bad choice.

I don't know what you mean?

Okay? If anything, that makes it more likely he'd know who she was.

Why? Moldaver worked for companies that were bought by Vault-Tec, it's not like she was working independently and sold her research. And it's not like Hank was in charge of buying companies.

MrKapowski posted...

Furthermore, how the fuck was she still alive? I don't think it was mentioned. Was she frozen in 31? Did she have her own cryo pods?

No, that's not explained.

Baron_Ox posted...

Tony figuring out time travel in a day was the dumbest thing ever

I've never quite understood this complaint tbh. Scott had already done the hard part by accident, Tony just figured out how to control it.

- Spider-Man, a hero with literal super strength, being unable to take off Thanos's gauntlet just to produce narrative tension

myztikrice posted...

- Trying to shoehorn Captain Marvel in by destroying a warship and then struggling, just everything about it was bad

Don't get these either, Thanos went toe-to-toe with Hulk, he should be able to threaten Spider-Man and Captain Marvel. And he had to use the Power Stone to punch her in the face to actually beat Marvel.

Monopoman posted...

Shit with a head shot and crit from any good weapon in New Vegas most enemies have their head explode off their body.

And fuck Bethesda's "official" SPECIAL stats, Maximus obviously has 10 Luck, so he'd be the one to get the crit.

He was not a Vault-Tech big wig, he was an executive assistant.

Hank should have recognized Moldaver

Why?

Yasha Nydoorin from Critical Role's second campaign. She's a zealot barbarian which means she literally cannot die while she's in a rage.

Jewel was also huge in the 90s. I'm surprised there are people who remember one but not the other.

Like I said, I only remember her from the Cinderella movie. And even that was due to the novelty of Victor Garber and Whoopi Goldberg having a Filipino son.

And huh, fun fact. I looked it up just now and Brandi's Cinderella and that guy's Prince Charming are actually reprising their roles in an upcoming Disney Channel movie. One of the Descendants movies about the kids of Disney characters.

Shes too slow for me. I prefer fast like the ninja. I do really like Aerith as a character and I love her scenes, I just dont like her in battle. How far are you into the game?

I've just done a bit of Gongaga. Beat Scarlet and seen the Tifa stuff.

It's literally a remix of the Rugrats theme song, just turned into faux-retro video game music.

One of us is deaf as hell because it sounds absolutely nothing like the Rugrats theme.

SomeLikeItHoth posted...

Didn't use Aerith as much because it takes forever to get her ATB up and by the time you get a bar it's time to use a potion

Funny, I'm finding it very hard to go without her. She takes some setup, but I gave her the ATB boost. Get enough ATB to use the ward that enhances her basic attack and she picks up ATB fairly quickly that way. She is fragile as fuck though, I'll give you that.

Of course, I might have trouble letting her go just because I gave her the best spell materia and I'd be fine if I just gave it someone else lol.

I don't know Jewel myself, but Brandy was fairly big in the 90s. I personally remember her for being in a truly race-blind Cinderella adaptation.
