And that's what separates Mupa from Monty and Ein Lee - the lack of subtle, yet intricate detail. I could barely make out shit based off of the way she makes her drawings or approves the designs. Everything here seems too simple.
Speaking of Bay, I’ll take Linkin Park over Jeff and Casey Williams every day of the week.
I agree, sorry about that, it's just the retardation of TF fandom just rubbed off me as a kid (It's a retarded fandom, but then again, there's rarely one that isn't).
Virgin Cucktic VS Chad Michael Baysed.
Doesn't help that the Bay films were the most hated things on the Internet for a number of years.
True, plus TF fandom was retarded even before that (e.g. Trukk not Munky). But goddamn, it's a divisive series, with a retarded western fandom. Anti-Bay faggotry was just part of it.
I won't blame you either - the guy is so long winded, his videos are a boring slog to get through. And guess what - just like RT's canon Volume 5, it all started with this volume of FRWBY as well!
As someone who knows what they are doing, Celtic's works are legitimately painful to read. The stupidity hurts, and I just want it to stop.
Since monty used to voice this character, is that potentially a throwback reference to the time when Gavin drunkenly stated "Monty, Im not attracted to dudes but if I had a boner for you, it's really trying right now."
….no. I don’t think so.
Highly doubt it. FRWBY, time and again, had proven to us that they're a team of talentless hacks lead by fart huffing lolcows. What little competent people they had left were either driven away or are stuck to do the menial tasks after joining. Not to mention, they're contstantly malding over anything Rooster Teeth and Miles Luna that they put any geewunner's seething over Michael Bay and flames on a truck to shame. Deep and meta levels of referencing and writing like what you're saying is not their forte.
I just figured that RT was all about inside jokes. I mean, they took the Flint Coal "joke" from old AH LPs and made it into a RWBY character. One they got called racists for for some reason.
No offense dude but this makes you sound like Raymond and also the head writer for Remnants.
What gets me is how they constantly shit on RWBY's writing, especially Luna's, and yet use it as a foundation for FRWBY. Not in the sense that it's a RWBY fanfic, but in the sense that they made the same mistakes by keeping the same story beats and the same writing flaws. They can deny it all they want, cover it with purple prose, and say they improved it, but much like RWBY itself the good is only found in isolated scenes. Yang's talks with Raven are good until you see how they framed Raven as a whole and realize how contradictory she is. Then they try to cover it with excuses about how it's so much deeper than that, you see, because this shows that Raven is unstable and immature. But then you run into issues like "then why do people follow her" and "that doesn't mean she's a sociopath, why does she lose her temper sometimes but then not react to her daughter's death." It's why this scene is ridiculous:
So is the FRWBY team. A lot of the "comedy" is borne of inside jokes.
Don't really care, lol.
... So in other words, in their attempt to justify Raven crying like a bitch ... they just repeat the scene but with Shay/Shiloh instead?
From what I remember, he talked about how wanting the Maiden twist to mean something, and for Vernal to be a tragic character since she died before she could have a full character arc and get flaw was her loyalty to Raven. It’s why she got so many scenes with Weiss and Yang.
This is why he did it, but instead of making Vernal a literally who that serves as nothing more than a red herring like in RWBY he has instead made her into a waste of an actual character, so as far as I see it he's actually failed harder.
Highly doubtful. It may have contributed but I honestly think that the biggest issue with V9 is a combination of RT's internal doldrums and V8 itself. Volume 8 did not go over well with basically anyone and even some of the most die hard RWBY stans found a way to hate V8, combine that with the fact that RT is struggling to remain solvent as a company and I wouldn't be surprised if they just hit the "oh shit!" button and pumped the brakes, I also wouldn't be surprised if they end up doing a bit of "restructuring" on CRWBY as a result. I've poked fun at @Random Internet Person before over how they bring up RWBY at every given opportunity over at the Rooster Teeth thread but despite the ribbing RIP has a point; RWBY is undeniably Rooster Teeth's biggest current IP and one of the exceedingly few pieces of relevancy, and more importantly good relationship with their own fanbase, that they have left. Red vs Blue is dead, Camp Camp is dead, Nomad of Nowhere is dead, Achievement Hunter is quickly dying, Funhause is quickly dying, Death Battle is still somewhat relevant but it's nowhere near as big as RWBY. For this reason V8 was an unmitigated disaster since it demolished any good will the remaining community had left towards the property and frankly I think that delaying release is high risk and potentially high reward. Delay the release and let the tempers cool for a bit, V9 doesn't even have to be good, every other volume has already proven that, it just has to be better then V8, which is fully doable if they take their time and also change out their writers.
