The Mentally Advanced Series was great but this looks even more promising; Dawn Somewhere could legitimately write and animate his own tv-worthy show. He's also completely self-taught, and you can see how his animation continually improves.

There's a whole lot of talent on Youtube. You hire a few of them (which would be a lot cheaper than hiring Disney-level animators 'specially if you do it outside California), give them enough free time to train themselves, and you have a good-quality team.
That's sort of my dream if I ever become a millionaire. A corporation is like fascism: it takes people with similar interests and gets them to work towards a common goal. (((Disney))) has strayed so far from Walt's original vision that would be wonderful for a new competitor to arise.

His gameplays of Mechwarrior and New Vegas were really good too.

How is it that even though he's literally got Glimmer murdering ponies on-screen without any timeline stuff to make things PG-13, his Glimmer isn't frustrating to watch like the real one is? Maybe it's because the writer realizes what he's doing and is doing it on purpose to parody the real thing and its bad writers.

Twilight's also an alcoholic (in MAS), Rarity has slept with most of the inhabitants of Ponyville, and Mr. Cakes actually gets cuckolded.
Dawn Somewhere is parodying every part of FiM and it's glorious.

I have no idea what is being referenced here or what this thread is about. Can someone give me a quick rundown?

It's because there's a big difference between making an intentionally flawed and unrelatable character who the audience loves to hate, and unintentionally making a bad character who the audience is supposed to like.

I think Hansom Jack from Borderlands 2 fits this.
A lot of people hate him. A lot of people like him for being such a good villain.
He's well written.
Meanwhile you have similar big-bads in other games that are much more "evil" but they're extremely shallow, have no character, and even though you hate them, you don't respect their writing.

An example of this is Ganondorf/Demise.
People liked Ganondorf because he was just a regular sandnigger who had a lust for power and got lucky enough to find said power.
Ganondorf is actually likable because it's easy to believe his character.
In the later games they even expanded upon this and made ganondorf just misunderstood/walk the wrong path.

Demise on the otherhand, is "King of the demons" and has that same lust for power.
He never develops beyond this, though.

You can also just compare the original Ganon (Zelda NES) who had no character, to the Ganon in "A Link To The Past", who was a thief who found the triforce and became an evil king who sought more power.
Instead of just always being evil, we have an explanation on where the evil or power came from. We're told why he's powerful and/or why he's evil.
If you're told to like a character, without giving a reason why the character should be liked, that's bad writing.

Holy shit, you're right!

I downloaded those games once. I played 2 for a bit as Gaige, gave up at the first car-driving mission. Then tried again after a few months but it burned out my hard drive. Years later, tried The Pre-Sequel as Claptrap, but the game was fucking bad. Recently bought The Handsome Collection for the PS4 because I got the PS4 from a friend that got himself the pro and I saw THC on sale for a few quid. It was pre-owned and I can see why, Jack's custom skill makes 2 NPCs play the game for you, but the balance and level curve assumes you'll have somewhat-good guns at every point and something at least half as good as your action skill on constantly.

It's kind of beautiful that even though (at the time) MAS was his biggest moneymaker, he just couldn't bring himself to go on parodying S2 when S6/7 was so bad.

>Playing the game alone
Found your problem. Game sucks without someone to play with. Don't bother.

What, Claptrap's RNG button and Jack's "win this fight for me" button both get more fun when you're competing with friends to see who can kill the most redshirts?
…That does sound kinda fun. I wish I didn't get the PS4 version, which will only let me online if I pay a fucking subscription fee.

Both of those are designed for multiplayer, though.
Claptrap is the troll "STOP HELPING ME" character, while Jack's character is more like… all your teammates are your meat shields.

I was going with the "Your clones are now better than they should be" build. Since they're already stupidly broken, and giving them a nova shield just breaks the game more.
…I'ma put shields into my Fallout Equestria fic. That'd tip the "Who'd win in a fight?" shit in my favor.
