yeah Just assume because we're talking about something that everyone knows about the world right now we're despicable or something

#

They got his ass

#

his own dad turned him in for 100k

#

"The bolt-action rifle Robinson used and left in a wooded area near the campus had various phrases engraved on the bullet casings, Cox said, including “Oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao ciao,” which appeared to reference an Italian anti-fascist song."

#

I really don't understand, people are fine with condoning easy laws that lead to school shooting, but talking bad about some other guy is suddenly oppressive...

opaque coyote

Mf is not left that's for sure

#

Also, people have the naive idea of "if we do it like them, we are no different"... Peace is not inaction.

languid meadow
#

the thing is he's not registered with any party and hasn't voted in the past two general elections

#

so like he just did it for the love of the game

queen laurel
#

i don't condone shooting a man in the head because you don't like him but like I also won't feel sorry for a guy that condones gun violence to preserve a law because apparently it's a foundation of the people

outer wave
#

The right hate empathy until something bad happens to their side I swear

queen laurel

queen laurel
#

Sometimes words are just not enough and you have to convince them with a firm brick

dapper gyro
#

It is their fucking idea of "An armed society is a polite society"...

languid meadow
#

the only time that was worked is Switzerland but that's because their guns are from the government

#

and they're all trained in it

dapper gyro
#

And they are extremely tight about their laws.

dapper gyro
#

If the US people live there, they would scream about "No freedom".

languid meadow
#

yeah you need to go to a shooting club to get ammo usually

#

iirc

queen laurel
#

I am guessing the president currently doesn't abide by these beliefs

dapper gyro
#

I don't like violence, but like, come on.

celest dome
#

The thing with American values is that they've been treated as commodities to cause workers to infight

dapper gyro
#

Also, when that health insurance dude got killed, people are more sympathy to the killer since many of them got screwed by that insurance. Now, not enough people screwed by mass shooters and assassins I think.

#

Double standard everywhere...

#

Especially the dude said death is the price to keep the [USA's] 2nd amendment.

queen laurel
celest dome
#

Some far right parties tried to make a minute of silence in the European court

#

Like 💀

queen laurel
#

of course

dapper gyro
#

The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic.

#

All of those kids died by guns men never get those minute of silence from anywhere not immediate from where they died.

#

But that guy, he is a hero for saying that their deaths serve his purpose.

queen laurel
#

really makes my stomach spin

#

people want to have a minute of silence on someone like that

#

sigh

raven stone
#

You know

#

sadly

#

this is one of those moments where 40k parody skirts dangeoursly close to real life

#

the dispossessed will always find a self-annointed champion to rally behind to overthrow a system they don't think works.

raven stone

There is no force more to be feared than a stubborn zealot

#

Ah great were talking about this again

outer wave
#

Sorry I was typing this up earlier then my class started

storm jungle
queen laurel
near wasp
#

Ah yeah because I don't like discussing a man who was fucking murdered on nation television

queen laurel
near wasp
#

And how I don't like seeing people celebrating such an action. Like holy fuck I must be monster

queen laurel
dapper gyro
#

I'm not celebrating. I'm talking about the nuance around it.

queen laurel
#

Is that so hard

near wasp
valid needle
#

Empathy means feeling what someone else is feeling

near wasp
#

Do not fucking compare me to eternal

dapper gyro
#

I love guns, I use firearms more than many people, but having such opinion like rather have people die than gun control is just dumb.

queen laurel
# near wasp You saw chat when it happened dude.

Yeah and it's just people talking about something quite big happening that's normal for humans but there are people who came in here saying we are apparently monsters and therefore we shouldn't talk about it because talking about it is celebrating about it

outer wave
# valid needle Do you mean sympathy?

There was a while where some guy on Twitter was talking about how empathy was a sin

Also Charlie Kirk even straight up said that empathy was a current day issue as well

dapper gyro
#

I don't attack the guy, but his idea and the irony of the situation.

queen laurel
#

forest orbit
#

lol

near wasp
#

Bro I don't even trust people who throw around the word nazi anymore

forest orbit
#

Sure buddy.

near wasp
#

I'm a slightly right leaning libertarian and I've been called a nazi frequently because I near Portland and I don't agree with the general population

storm jungle
#

He was a total piece of shit. Im not really gonna say much beyond the fact that he pretty much prospered the situation that lead to his demise lol.

Anyway yeah everyone chill out please and take a breath KEKW_ogryn

near wasp
#

Sorry I got heated

#

Comparing me to eternal made me lose my cool

queen laurel
# near wasp Sorry I got heated

I get it you don't like it it's not a good situation and not a fun one to think about but getting mad at people talking about something natural because it's a big thing is not gonna make you look good on anyone

storm jungle
#

Its fine, like I said everyone just relax, the topic is gonna come up because again literally international news due to how much the media is milking it compared to other events (down to just flag half-mast nonsense)

celest dome
#

It's current news and it's not as touchy as other current news

#

Like Nepal's

queen laurel
#

Yeah it's a big news and people talk about it That's normal, I get not liking it but getting mad at other people for talking about it

#

That's just weird man

outer wave
dapper gyro
#

I'm not even anti gun. You can ask me most stuff about firearms and I can answer you. But I will never say anything like Kirk said or did.

near wasp
valid needle
#

Innocent girl is butchered on a bus and no one bats an eye but you assassinate one guy and everyone loses their minds

raven stone
#

And the media kind of came very late to reporting that

near wasp
#

"it was some sort of celebratory shot kind of thing" -CNN reporting on the assassination

raven stone
dapper gyro
#

There are other people got assassinated, yet I heard a lot "they asked for it."... But not much in this case.

queen laurel
# near wasp My issue with it all is that even though charlie had opinions that many did not ...

i get it you're afraid what happens to him is just gonna become a trend of people taking justice to their own hands in a way that is irrational and fueled by hatred, but being sarcastic with a group of people just talking about the issue in a very common civil manner is not like a good look I get it it's bad it's not nice but getting mad at people talking about it it's just not good

#

it's natural for people to talk about something to get a bearing on something

#

understand it try to get how it why you know reason like that

#

When something is just too big for people to escape they may as well face it their own way

storm jungle
near wasp
#

Yeah and I'm discussing it in a calm manner now

#

But straight out comparing me to that price of shit eternal from the get go, not a good start to the convo

queen laurel
dapper gyro
#

I mean, sometimes, we unknowingly become the thing we don't like.

#

It happens.

summer mural
#

i hope they get nicolas cage to play the emperor of mankind someday tbh

dapper gyro
#

It is also why we should look at ourselves in the mirror from time to time.

near wasp
#

The emperor needs like multiple actors to play him

raven stone
summer mural
#

so?

#

its nic cage , im pretty sure he can handle that by this point

raven stone
#

true

celest dome
#

Cage should be Tzeentch tbh

dapper gyro
#

Nic Cage carrying the D-C tier movies for starting directors for the last 10 years.

summer mural
#

although I really feel like he should have been in a videogame by now , with all the increasingly bigname actors getting in roles in em now

dapper gyro
#

His debts are gone 10 years ago.

summer mural
#

also not to diss anything keanu does, but I think he was a poor choice to cast as silverhand

near wasp
#

He was fine as silverhand

dapper gyro
#

Silverhand can be played by anyone really.

summer mural
#

like nic cage KEKW_ogryn

queen laurel
near wasp
#

He's too old

dapper gyro
summer mural
#

oh yeah

near wasp
#

Cegoragh would be better

queen laurel
summer mural
#

jim carrey as cegorach would be excellent

#

just the face

near wasp
#

You guys know that one YouTuber who straight up can become a cartoon he need to be a harlequin

dapper gyro
#

shia labeouf can be Harleyquin, the dude is crazy.

summer mural
#

well

#

hes a bit too buff

dapper gyro
#

Nah, he can type act.

summer mural
#

he pretty much looks like a bulldog, he could definitely do it though, he can act

dapper gyro
#

Like how he lived as a homeless to be like a WW2 veteran for Fury, to be felt like time accurate...

#

In real life!

summer mural
#

method act yeah

#

i mean he can do it, hes done great acting in a lot of movies

#

revenge of the fallen doesnt count

#

unless you count that eye twitching classroom freak fest thing

dapper gyro
#

Like, Bale did crazy things, but he has class. Shia is full blow stupid.

summer mural
#

what does that have to do with his ability to play roles KEKW_ogryn

near wasp
#

That one guy on YouTube has ability to just move so cartoony he'd be perfect

dapper gyro
#

So he can play questionable characters.

summer mural
#

even bale can do that, you dont have to be stupid for it

daring creek
#

I'm curious. Since Orks multiply from the spores they leave behind after dying. Aren't explosive weapons like the Bolter a horrible weapon against them?

summer mural
#

well

near wasp
#

They're gonna spread either way

summer mural
#

i think they leave spores even if you kill them with laser precision one hits

near wasp
#

Using a flamer would be the only weapon that'd be good

celest dome
dapper gyro
#

However, explosive takes the of the immediate danger, then a cleaning crew with flamer finish it after the battle is done.

summer mural
#

although I dunno if blowing them up means they leave more spores

celest dome
#

Either copious amount of fire or doing rounds and exterminating the mushroom as they pop

summer mural
#

i wonder if they leave spores in space

summer mural
#

like do orks spores grow in like a spacehulk

near wasp
#

Yes

queen laurel
#

the best is literally just using a flame thrower on them

queen laurel
#

it can grow in just about everywhere

dapper gyro
#

Flamer does stop them spread, but it is not actually effective vs orks.

near wasp
#

Space hulks are usually infested

dapper gyro
#

Especially that many are armoured.

near wasp
#

If a flamer can kill an space Marine it'll kill an armored ork

summer mural
#

yeah ive seen that

#

i assumed they needed uh some kind of soil, even artifical one

queen laurel
#

trust me they are a hardy bunch

summer mural
#

mhm

dapper gyro
#

Well, Orks do have guns, too... so I hope that your framer has the reach.

summer mural
#

they got big dakka too

#

like those orks I forgot, the heavy weapons one, who walk around carrying looted plasma guns and heavy bolters

dapper gyro
#

They have artillery and counter battery, too...

queen laurel
dapper gyro
#

So yeah, explosive is still the better immediate solution.

summer mural
#

yeah flash gitz im pretty sure, those boys have BIG guns

dapper gyro
#

Unless you start to use DAOT weapons or Necrons.

summer mural
#

dakkadakkadakkadakkadakkadakkadakkadakka

dapper gyro
#

If you are not a SM, then flamer vs Ork is asking for immediate demise.

queen laurel
dapper gyro
#

So it is a glorified blow torch?

summer mural
#

yes

near wasp
#

Orks are scary

queen laurel
summer mural
#

ork tech is scary af

#

not the burna..necessarily

plucky moth
#

Orks are visionaries and innovators

summer mural
#

like, the RAF spitfires and mustang airforce is crazy

queen laurel
dapper gyro
queen laurel
#

they are visionaries and innovators when it comes to bludgeoning your head in

summer mural
#

melee orks I find..okay, but like the orks with shootas and flash gitz with their 1 million warmachines and mekboys is wack

queen laurel
#

that is literally just the bad moons

near wasp
#

Dakka is dakka

queen laurel
#

They could pack enough firepower to humble tau gun line

near wasp
#

Mooms PU_FeelsKekMan

queen laurel
near wasp
#

You know what fair

summer mural
#

tau gun like is crazy too, though its not as cool as orks, because orks got all that ballistic gunpowder going off nonstop

plucky moth
#

tau tech is very cool in that it's very different to the usual 40k vibe

dapper gyro
#

Tau weapons is what humanity could have been.

summer mural
#

tau certainly have disgustingly strong tech

summer mural
#

like imagine going into trench warfare against an army filled with dudes who have a massive amount of precision railgun delete buttons and flying battlesuits

plucky moth
queen laurel
summer mural
#

i like the big one

#

the uber one

#

i forgot what its called KEKW_ogryn

#

the biggest one

#

with the cannons on the back

queen laurel
summer mural
#

yah that one

queen laurel
#

Also known as the compensating for something and doing it well suit

misty vector
#

do tau control the suits by plugging their nerves in like humans?

summer mural
#

imagine being like yo " I got my 5000 year old imperial knight bucket of bolts with motorized chainsword yeah!!" and then that thing just shows up on the battlefield and pops you open like a can of tuna

#

the drukhari dont use big stuff do they

summer mural
#

except for pain engines I guess

#

also I guess it doesnt really fit into their style of being raiders and kidnappers

queen laurel
#

Just the brain

summer mural
#

and sun kidnappers

near wasp
#

They use monstrositys

misty vector
summer mural
#

are their monstrosities that big

#

well

#

children of bone make em huge apparently

#

what do they do if like a bunch of wraithlords attack em, do they just start blowing them up with dark matter bs

near wasp
#

Don't they continue to grow rapidly until they just die or am I thinking of something else

summer mural
#

dunno

near wasp
#

My dark elder lore is very surface level

#

All eldar lore just don't really get me

summer mural
#

well, gw doesnt care about them, dark eldar that is, look at how they treat poor vect

near wasp
#

Isn't he dead

summer mural
#

ive seen catachans with better models chadgryn

vagrant fox
#

Vect is alive and chilling

storm jungle
#

then he had them killed and had himself resurrected from their anguish

#

LITERALLY just to be a troll btw

near wasp
#

Chad

vagrant fox
#

Standard procedure for Vect

storm jungle
#

Also he had the kabal archons he killed resurrected

#

just as a flex

#

and also a "i own you losers" thing

summer mural
#

also someone showed me this fanart of raven guard fighting mandrakes in an abandoned temple, and that fight as a concept is so cool, its like a super bloodthirsty, savage stealth battle

near wasp
storm jungle
#

Hes essentially a diva yeah lol

#

this is the same guy

#

who sent a coffin of gifts to a "pal" of his

#

||(it had a blackhole inside it)||

near wasp
#

Nahhhh

storm jungle
#

Yeah KEKL

#

also last example

#

one of his rival archons tried to breakaway from Commorragh in his own subrealm.

#

Vect dealt with it by opening a webway portal above his giant palace and dropping a ruined imperial cruiser ontop of it, blowing everything up.

#

hes such a cunt, i cant even explain it

summer mural
#

vect sounds like the dark elf malekith aspired to be.

storm jungle
#

Basically yeah lmao

summer mural
#

except malekith just ended up whining most of the time

near wasp
#

Didn't he ascend to power by baiting the imperium into killing all his rivals

storm jungle
#

this man is so untouchable he literally had himself assassinated to make a point

storm jungle
vagrant fox
#

Very megamind, being a supervillain is all about the presentation

storm jungle
#

he let 2-3 Chapter companies into the higher echelons of commorragh to let all the noble houses be killed then let them escape to take over in the power vacuum.

near wasp
#

Bruh

#

Work smarter not garder

summer mural
#

well

storm jungle
#

Yeah this was in like M35

summer mural
#

that sounds like a w tbh

#

for the marines too

storm jungle
#

Vect was born a lowly slave in Commorragh. Carving a bloody path through the city using a combination of deception and his own wits, Vect climbed the ladder of Commorragh and founded the Kabal of the Black Heart. By the time the arrogant nobility of Commorragh acknowledged that the low-born Vect could pose a legitimate threat,[2a] it was too late and by 984.M35 with a pact signed to the Masque of the Veiled Path[9], Vect had forcibly united the disparate sub-realms of the Dark City into his fold.[2a]

Vect then captured the Salamanders Space Marine Strike Cruiser Forgehammer, which provoked an Imperial invasion of Commorragh itself. In the ensuing battle, the Lords of Commorragh were killed by the vengeful Space Marine forces and Vect emerged as the undisputed ruler of the Dark City

#

The damage the marines did basically didnt matter, dark eldar can just spawn more of themselves through vatborn.

#

it was a very smart play

summer mural
#

does the imperium even know who runs commorragh

storm jungle
#

Nope.

#

Its a nightmare realm

summer mural
#

fair enough

storm jungle
#

also essentially endless

near wasp
#

The imperium didn't even know the silent king was real until he showed up on there doorstep

summer mural
#

well

storm jungle
#

Yeah and uh

#

fun fact

summer mural
#

that one is kinda understandable

storm jungle
#

silent king has been around since the 5th edition necron codex

#

so he WAS actually in the galaxy for like over 20+ IRL years

#

just never mentioned in any big capacity

summer mural
#

well yeah, he never went to sleep in lore right

storm jungle
#

Yeah he has been awake for over 60 million years

summer mural
#

like hes literally been awake since before he even got turned into a necron

#

yeah

storm jungle
#

its his own self-imposed penance for dooming his race

near wasp
#

Well yeah gw can't just let the setting progress

storm jungle
queen laurel
storm jungle
#

people assumed he came back with 9th edition

summer mural
#

hes just been floating around on his dias with ctan shard warming his chair

#

and his mute af advisors

#

although its pretty cool there are triarch praetorians who havent slept ever either and have been roaming around the galaxy

#

~~ and they totally founded ancient egypt on prospero back in the day~~

ur gold?

Gold is pure

queen laurel
# summer mural ur gold?

Probably not gonna happen because that thing is literally filled with the violent essence of a war God the fire slayers worship

i might have been referring to the ogre metal bull guy

was there a chorf metal bull guy

I will give two imaginary dollars if you guess correctly

However, they're only considered tenure in Lala land

Congratulations

You get two imaginary dollars

To spend in Lala land!

#

The fact that this is a real fucking quote from a leader of a country

Certainly a proof that we are definitely in a wild ass timeline

queen laurel

They might bring this dude back

Listen. At least in Cyberpunk

queen laurel

that's the reason why you probably forgot

Call them a subgroup of hellsmiths now

queen laurel
#

So decided to just **** it

summer mural
#

infernal guard are cool, the concept of them having slayer like penance and wearing those molten helms was dope

queen laurel
#

Use the power of the realms to make centaur dwarves

celest dome
#

And be released from it KEKW_ogryn

summer mural
#

true

arctic talon
#

Chaos is more forgiving

celest dome
#

Though being released from it mean they pry the mask off

summer mural
#

also just wearing molten helm , packing guns and heavy armor as penance is so much more sensible than being a redheaded naked berserker

I hate ghur

the last edition in 3rd was set in that place

So it’s both

is hashut still their goto bestie

We’ll get more like

Oh yeah also on a completely unrelated note.

I remembered that the reinforced combat armor actually exists in Fallout New Vegas only.

I forgot how ugly it fucking looks

I wish theyd make it like drazhoath displace hashut as their new bull bro or something lmao

So how likely is it that the Chaos Dwarf will have some bullshit train system that work as their planar transport

summer mural
#

itl probably be a flying train by this point

opaque coyote
#

I don't even follow AoS that much.

But I know that

#

Trains are the most efficient

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

also having hashut as the bull guy feels kinda weird because all the lumineth elves are running with bull paraphernalia which while different just looks odd

opaque coyote
#

Trains are the fucking best form of transport

Efficient

Clean

#

yeah ik

#

but like

Able to go through any terrain as long as we build a railway

theres too much Bull shit

Trains are great

If a city of sigmar has a tram system

They're not really the same types of bulls I think

arctic talon
#

The chorfs can have an inter realm train system

As a treat

arctic talon
opaque coyote
arctic talon
#

But it is a shared thing

opaque coyote
#

They have to beat up the engine to prevent the train from derailing because the Daemon wants out

summer mural
#

they arent, its just weird since they are still like..two bulls ?? idk

near wasp
#

Chaos dwafts can't have trains because they are things of order

opaque coyote
#

Have you seen Japanese Tram system maps

celest dome
opaque coyote
celest dome
#

While the Elven ones kind of make me think of Highlands cows

opaque coyote
#

How the fuck does anybody know where to go

summer mural
#

also they should flesh out the chorf faction so much that they can handle all the duardin factions, give them like flaming zeppelins with hellcannons or something

arctic talon
#

lol

#

Unfortunately GW has a big Order bias in AoS

#

For better or for worse

opaque coyote
#

Dude, it looks like a bunch of colored lines

arctic talon
#

Hopefully they can balance it out

opaque coyote
#

I can grab a pack of crayons

Scribble on a piece of paper

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

Add some Japanese words

arctic talon
#

It becomes more comprehensible

opaque coyote
#

"look a Japanese Tram system map"

summer mural
#

you dont need to look at the actual map

celest dome
summer mural
#

you can just choose a destination at the ticket counter, including the automated one, and itl tell you the color

#

then just look at the color

#

you dont have to see every line

opaque coyote
#

You don't need to

#

It compels you to try and decipher it

#

The only way is to ignore it

#

Don't let it's chaotic whispers tempt you

this sounds more like a khorne problem

And just rip the skull out

#

Easy

near wasp

#

They barely even notice

summer mural
#

the practical problem with chainsword is the same as the one with an actual chainsaw, it needs fucking fuel KEKW_ogryn

arctic talon
#

Chainsword wouldn’t be hard to build in theory lol

#

Assuming you like have a chainsaw

opaque coyote
celest dome
#

The problem is it being just worse than a Chainsaw, and worse than a sword

near wasp
#

I mean the fuel only needs to last like a few seconds tbg

young pecan
#

Aren't chainswords like "Made Special" or something

summer mural
young pecan
#

Carbide edges or some such

opaque coyote
#

Primarily because it'll get stuck

#

And maybe even unravel and hit you instead

#

I just assume the Imperium has more durable chains

#

And a miniscule battery that lasts longer

near wasp
#

They use promethium

summer mural
#

power weapon on the other hand would be dope

opaque coyote
#

Just like

summer mural

as a catachan?

opaque coyote
#

Put on a military costume with "body armor"

near wasp

Lol

opaque coyote
#

But idk how I would make the lasgun

near wasp
#

Just don't do cadian

arctic talon
#

When they get caught

near wasp
#

Or do and have a jar of dirt

arctic talon
#

They start sawing back and forth

summer mural
#

i think you should go as ferrus, you just wear a giant suit of inflatable body armor with no head

opaque coyote
vagrant fox
arctic talon
#

Rather then just going in one direction

opaque coyote
#

The problem is like

#

Having a prop lasgun

#

I thought of making like

near wasp
arctic talon
#

lol

opaque coyote
#

A cardboard prop

#

With a flashlight inside the barrel

arctic talon
#

Chinese I can read without any real issue

near wasp
#

Make a foam plasma gun

opaque coyote
#

Or a laser pointer

arctic talon
#

Japanese my brain needs to think a bit sometimes

opaque coyote
#

Flashlight would be funny due to the nickname

#

But laser pointer would be more accurate

arctic talon
#

I can read stuff like a menu/newspaper

summer mural
#

you can actually use a nerf gun and paint it green tbh, and stick a flashlight, nerf guns look like lasguns in design

near wasp
#

Use plastic tubing with florescent dye as coils

summer mural
#

mostly

opaque coyote
#

But I haven't really made my own cosplay before

arctic talon
#

I just read it slower lol

opaque coyote
vagrant fox

And then turning it on if I want to

arctic talon
#

I would say I am fully literate in mandarin Chinese

opaque coyote
#

"shoot"

arctic talon
#

I am not for Japanese lol

#

I can speak it fine, reading is

opaque coyote
#

Have considered Cadian but I don't want to use contacts to mimic the eye color

arctic talon
#

Less smooth

summer mural
#

nah go as a catachan

Because I hate putting stuff on my eyes

arctic talon

You’re gona need some roids

lol

near wasp
opaque coyote
#

You think of Cadia. There are two things.

summer mural
#

just go as a homeless person in kevlar, there, cadian.

opaque coyote
#

The dust field where the planet was

#

And the purple eyes

arctic talon
summer mural
#

and make sure to bring up cadia every chance you get, thats the defining cadian quality

opaque coyote

As they show a fucking planet being blown up

Technically child safe

#

I was actually surprised when watching Transformers One

summer mural
opaque coyote
#

Like I know that "robot is fine to die in brutal manners"

#

But it still genuinely surprised me seeing Sentinel Prime get fucking torn in half

near wasp
#

It was awesome

opaque coyote
#

Hell, the pipes and circuits acted like guts and viscera

summer mural
#

well that movie was wack because optimus was so utterly ruthless

#

sentinel was all defeated and was like " forgive mee forgive mee im your old friend " and optimus shot him in the face

opaque coyote
#

I was talking about transformers one

#

But that works too

#

"NO OPTIMUS"

summer mural
#

sentinel prime is in-ohhhhh

near wasp
#

Bros thinking of a different movie

summer mural
#

that one

opaque coyote
#

Gets his brains blown out

#

I love how each sentinel prime death gets more and more violent

#

Transformers One was easily more brutal than even the Michael Bay series for Prime's death specifically

#

Like you see Sentinel fucking howling in agony

#

As Megatron tears him in half while screaming

near wasp
#

Glory kill

opaque coyote
#

His circuits fucking snapping in half

opaque coyote
#

Although tbf Transformers One was actually partially directed by Michael Bay

#

So

#

Maybe he saw an opportunity to one up his own Sentinel Prime death

summer mural
#

i liked sentinels weapon

#

using a dual bladed staff is cool

opaque coyote
#

I dislike the character (I love to hate him), but Sentinel Prime's design is genuinely pretty good

#

Even has the whole faux religious look down

#

Emperor looking ahh

near wasp
#

I like sentinel because he's such an asshole but he's so charismatic

summer mural
#

so

near wasp
#

But he's also the scum of the earth

summer mural
#

which transformers lore is the canon one, lets exclude the bay movies

opaque coyote
#

But the twist was how evil he actually is

summer mural
#

like which is the main main transformers lore before the bay movies existed

opaque coyote
#

...

near wasp
#

The twist was he ripped out there cogs and was kneeling to the quintessons

summer mural
#

figured

opaque coyote
#

Primarily because even at the advent of G1

summer mural
#

thats why its all fuckin over the place

opaque coyote
#

There was the Japanese TV show

#

The American TV show

#

The Marvel Comics

#

And another set of comics

#

It was fucking wack even at the very beginning

summer mural
#

theres like 120 different versions of what happened on cybertron before they came to earth

opaque coyote
#

Basically think of it as mythology

#

Same characters but their personalities and back stories are fluid

summer mural
#

what I do remember from one of the adaptations is that hotshot was like a big deal main character type of guy

opaque coyote
#

Hell G1 didn't even have Megatron and Optimus's "Ex-friend" relationship.

#

Megatron in G1 was literally just

#

An asshole

#

That part was made for later adaptations

#

But in the OG cartoon, Megatron was literally just an asshole

#

The reason why Optimus became Optimus in G1 was purely because Megatron shot him and left him to die

summer mural
#

and there was one where some teenagers were running around on scooters and wheelies and those were some minicon dudes who could fuse with the transformers to make them chad

dapper gyro
#

OG carton Megatron is just cartoonish.

dapper gyro
#

It is a kid show after all.

#

Nothing deep really

opaque coyote
opaque coyote
#

"WE WILL SUCK THIS EARTH PLANET. DRY!!'

near wasp
#

Might go rewatch tbh

opaque coyote
#

God I love G1 Starscream

summer mural
#

actually, whats consistent in all of them is that starscream and megatron have a toxic relationship

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

and starscream always runs away to "survive"

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

also because he can fly at ultrasonic speed

opaque coyote
#

Armada has Starscream be a valiant and brave warrior

#

And puts focus on the abusive relationship

#

More of an abusive student and teacher relationship

#

Rather than "MEGATRON HAS FALLEN. I, STARSCREAM, SHALL BE YOUR NEW LEADER! DECEPTICONS FOLLOW ME!"

summer mural
#

so whats like the actual backstory of what happens on cybertron

#

like..megatron is fighting?

#

autobots are rebels?

#

they lose?

#

idk

dapper gyro
opaque coyote
#

With Megatron at the helm

summer mural
#

yeah generally

opaque coyote
#

With Optimus and Megatron being friends

#

Before not being friends due to differing views on how the system should be made

#

Either reformed or destroyed

celest dome
#

So basically the Decepticons were getting revenge on the Autobot for having enslaved them ?

summer mural
#

no

#

i think there was no such distinction originally

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

autobots were a later faction iirc, that were rebelling?

opaque coyote
#

With no real "good" side ironically enough

#

But like I said

#

It depends

queen laurel
opaque coyote
#

There are a lot of differences

#

For example, in G1, the decepticons were actually war robots

#

Due to them having no war to fight

#

They turned on the very citizens

#

With Megatron in particular being tailor made to be blood thirsty

opaque coyote
#

Also G1 Hot Rod is genuinely my favorite

#

He is basically a soldier that stepped up to be a leader after Optimus's death

summer mural
#

yeah ik hotrod is supposed to be one of the main characters

#

and one of the better good guys

opaque coyote
#

Optimus fucking dies

summer mural
#

based

opaque coyote
#

Basically this was due to a multitude of factors

#

But basically, execs didn't understand that killing off characters might actually traumatize children

summer mural
opaque coyote
#

After the very first Transformer movie, there was a case of like

#

A kid being so traumatized by Optimus's death

#

That he locked himself in a room for three straight days

summer mural
#

yeah uh

#

that was me

opaque coyote
#

Tbf all the deaths in the OG movie were brutal. Despite it being made for children

#

Like

#

It's awfully similar to like actual deaths

#

They get shot

#

They immediately die

#

No fanfare

#

Characters who were prominent in the cartoon

#

Who had full arcs

#

Literally just die in one shot

#

Like fodder

summer mural
#

also was there actually a goddamn interspace travelling transformer bounty hunter named lockdown

opaque coyote
#

That includes Optimus btw

#

Died by a sneak attack from Megatron because Hot Rod fucked up and accidentally became a hostage after trying to wrestle the gun from Megatron

#

@summer mural it's also wild since the G1 cartoon was pretty obviously like

#

For kids

#

Like the lasers might as well be Lasguns from the tabletop

#

They did nothing

#

And then suddenly in the movie, they just fucking die in a single shot

#

Huge tonal difference

summer mural
#

well

#

i dunno, i dont really care about individual transformers

opaque coyote
# summer mural well

Like imagine being some 5 year old kid in the 1980s.

Excited to see your favorite toys in the big screen.

And then you see this scene:

summer mural
#

personally id disagree with them and tell the transformers they dont have feelings

#

and they should get on with it

opaque coyote
#

I'm sorry but seeing Starscream scanning the area with Megatron transformed as his gun is fucking awesome

summer mural
#

oh yeah I remember laserbeak was a big deal

#

the bird thing

#

vulture

#

parrot?

opaque coyote
#

Btw the autobots that die are literally lkke

#

Popular major characters

#

Ironhide is usually characterized as a grizzled veteran

#

Alive for millions of years through the war, usually older than Optimus

#

And he just gets executed in a single shot with zero fanfare

#

Fucking awesome

opaque coyote
#

It isn't... like... good

#

But it is fucking entertaining as shit

#

Basically due to it being like the beginning of transformers in general.

They threw a lot of shit at the wall.

summer mural
#

i cant lol, i tried watching a bunch of old cartoons recently and I realized im one of those people who can only handle dated animation to a point KEKW_ogryn

opaque coyote
#

So you have a lot of crazy shit that will literally never be seen again

Next to things that are defining for the franchise

opaque coyote
#

It is

#

Utterly stupid

#

Do not take it seriously

#

It is however

#

Very entertaining

#

One of the first episodes is having the decepticons become fucking wasted from energon

#

And being too drunk to effectively fight

summer mural
#

the only cartoon im considering rewatching is beyblade

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

because I never finished it

opaque coyote
#

Not even because of like

#

The quality

#

It's because there is so many moving parts in each transformer that it genuinely becomes hard to identify and follow

summer mural
#

the michael bay movies are filled with a lot of garbage yes

opaque coyote
#

Like at some point my eyes and brain are like

#

"WOW MOVING SHAPES"

summer mural
#

yeah ik what you mean

#

like my friend went to watch it and he was like " dude after the first 20 minutes i had no idea what was happening, it was just a bunch of noise and machines slapping into each other"

opaque coyote
#

Because at least I can fucking look at it

#

At least I can understand what is going on

summer mural
#

transformers 1 I liked

#

that was it

opaque coyote
#

Also watch Transformers Prime

#

Pretty good

summer mural
#

transformers 1 had a beginning middle and end

#

the others just kept going on and on about random shit

opaque coyote
#

Like the choreography is genuinely pretty good in spite of the several moving parts

summer mural
#

transformers 3 had the best action

#

yes

#

also it was darker

opaque coyote
#

Also seeing humans actually like

#

Fight back against transformers

#

Using tactics

#

I get that it's part of the contract to glaze the military

summer mural
#

its a michael bay thing

opaque coyote
#

But it is genuinely pretty cool to see people actually fight back

summer mural
#

he loves the military

opaque coyote
dapper gyro
#

He loves the military, but he doesn't give a fuck about accuracy.

opaque coyote
#

He signed a contract with the military

summer mural
#

he just loves to hype it

opaque coyote
#

That's how he can make so much explosions

#

He is supplied by the USA military

dapper gyro
#

Spielberg movies, when the military appears, it is always so much more accurate.

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

the marine corp and navy cant land battalions of tanks and troops next to the pyramids by sea carrier in a few hours because a guy called lol

dapper gyro
#

In the 1st Bay movie, the fucking helicopter was in middle of a military base and take no damage for anything.

#

In the later movie, LMG can blind and damage the bots easily...

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

also john torturro being a random nobody and calling a naval destroyer from a gunship via sat phone and browbeating their commander to fire their EXPERIMENTAL RAILGUN at the pyramids isnt happening either

near wasp
#

Gonna watch transformer one for the resty time at work

dapper gyro
#

Oh, even the ancient bots that are supposed to be stronger?

#

Even starcream was bodied by human infantry...

opaque coyote
#

Tbf

#

Starscream

opaque coyote
# dapper gyro Even starcream was bodied by human infantry...

The fact that Megahurt doesn't even address the insult either, he just retreats 😂

But Megatron certainly isn't ugly. Almost every iteration of him is hot. (I'm looking at you, MTMTE Megs)

On the other hand, Beast Machines Megatron is definitely ugly. He's nightmare fuel levels of ugly. Dude has that Ju-On stare lmaoooo

Clip is from Dinob...

dapper gyro
#

Starcream is supposed to be much stronger than the other bots, including he heli one, as well.

opaque coyote
#

Wrong clip

summer mural
#

starscream just has a craven personality

#

he is quite strong

#

just doesnt really get into fighting to my last breath kinda thing

#

well

near wasp
#

That's what we call being smart

summer mural
#

"breath"

near wasp
#

Warhammer has just conditioned us into death fights

opaque coyote
summer mural
#

plus starscream has always had the advantage of being able to fly off at supersonic speeds

#

so he does

opaque coyote
#

Always poking holes in Megatron's plan

#

They usually forget that though

#

Like G1 Starscream specifically was a scientist

#

He is intelligent

#

The problem is that intelligence is NOT what the deceptions value

summer mural
#

i remember shockwave was like one of the big heavy hitters, like hed fight fight

opaque coyote
#

He is also like Magos level of insane bre

#

He casually does war crimes and is lobotomized to have zero empathy

summer mural
#

did he even transform

#

i dont think shockwave had a vehicle did he

dapper gyro
#

Like I said earlier, aside from Bay movies, Starcream is the GUY.

summer mural
#

idr

arctic talon
#

in the bay movies no

summer mural
#

no generally

in the bay movies he was just garbling techno shit and ordering his giant robo worm around
