Alright so I’m looking at the chronology of Detroit: Become Human and Hank’s week is FUCKING WILD. It’s not even a week! It goes from Friday to Wednesday! And in this short period of time, Hank loses his case, can lose his job and might even lose his life?
This post will contain hefty spoilers for all routes all the way to late game.
Look, we all knew it was only a matter of time until I wrote meta for this fandom.
There’s a quote I think of, every time someone complains about North being violent. I read it on tumblr, so of course I have long since lost the original post, but the gist of it was this; ‘Men who hate women want to hurt or kill them. Women who hate men want men to leave them alone.’That’s the core of North’s ‘violence’ right there; she wants to be safe, and she thinks the only way that can happen is if she makes it too costly to hurt her. And – because she cares about her people – she wants to enact violence on a large scale to keep all of them safe.
(Continued under the cut, because even though this doesn’t cover the whole game it’s Long)
even though doomfist is clearly a master tactician who can think quickly and find openings and weaknesses in his enemies in seconds and is said in his bio to be charismatic and intelligent, how long do you think it’ll be until the fandom reduces him to a hot-headed, angry mess who just likes punching things
I give it three days, though probably less.
I’ll never see Doomfist as a punch happy villain because of what I saw in his trailer. To me, Doomfist is a smart villain. I love the way he takes out Tracer.
Tracer is able to dodge the car Doomfist throws at her.
In this brief moment he sees that Tracer has the superior speed and agility, but the drawback is that her attacks are nothing to him. In the last frame of this gif you can tell Doomfist has figured out how Tracer moves and how she does it.
He swipes at her. We’ve seen how Doomfist attacks. His punches are direct, straightforward, and precise. To make a swipe is not something he would do without purpose. That swipe was his way of forcing Tracer to evade by using her blink ability. When she teleports, Doomfist doesn’t look to where she was in confusion. That’s something mindless goons do. Instead, he immediately reaches for where he KNOWS Tracer will reappear and without hesitation destroys her chronal accelerator. He knew this is the source of her power.
The detail of him just standing there as she flickers out of time is amazing. Doomfist doesn’t care about the fallout of his actions. He saw an opponent he needed to beat, he figured out her weakness, and he took advantage of it. Tracer has fallen, and like Doomfist says at the end of his trailer, she will now be forgotten.
this person breaks it down really well and like if you’re having a hard time figuring out how you should write doomfist it wouldn’t hurt to read breakdowns like this and thinking about how his actions in this video reflect on his characterization and personality
