*Kryptonite

And no, he can't. Martian Manhunter alone has more powers than Superman has, and he has constantly shown to be beaten by other heroes like Wonder Woman and the Flash. Hell, the Reverse Flash defeated him with a single punch when Wondy took more punishment and ended up beating the Reverse Flash. Superman is also way too hung up in protecting others that he sometimes ignores their need to help thinking that he can take the brunt of the attack, this had led him being humiliated by Darkseid, Brainiac, and Lobo both in his own series and in the JLA.

Recently in Rebirth he couldn't even beat a single octopus monster alone, he needed his son's help. AND then he couldn't beat the Eradicator alone, he had help from his son, from Lois in the Hellbat armor, and Krypto. AND now he barely survived fighting against Zod, Cyborg Supes, and Eradicator. If he was sooo powerful as you say, he would've already cleaned house, but he didn't. He left the fight blinded and beaten.
Okay, cool

Now apply it to mainstream where the convoluted and usually poorly written comics (and I mean comics as a whole) actually apply

or let Marvel get their hands on it so they can actually do something decent with the character. But we all know they wouldn't let Marvel touch their face.
i feel like you only read a limited number of superman comics
few people have to the patience to wade through oceans of shit to find a somewhat okay story

comics are a worse medium than anime

Also since he was mentions let's take a moment to remember what a dumb, shitty villain Doomsday is.
that should've been one of my caveats

what GOOD, WELL-WRITTEN characters are stronger than superman

if at any time superman actually DOES lose a fair fight, it's just poor writing and a vain attempt at curbing expectations

he's not supposed to lose a fair fight, he's superman

that's basically showing me a picture of superman getting knocked out by donald duck's dick, it doesn't mean anything

neither wonder woman nor superman are being canonically represented in the dceu. nice try. same with flash.
there's like a billion different canons who gives a fuck

Quote
characters that are equal to or greater than superman (high diff):

lobo
darkseid
the atom
bizarro
martian manhunter
shazam
doomsday
captain atom
dr fate (but what kind of shitty fucking character design is this)
wonder woman
the flash (who can solo any non-omnipotent character)
firestorm
the spectre
most of the new gods
(if your character can be described as a "god" among superheroes, that should automatically disqualify)

off the top of my head
red = FUCK no

yellow = villain, doesn't count

blue = non-character whose only purpose is to be powerful

green = an actually good example yay

you're gonna need at least 200 more, and that's low-balling it considering how many superheroes there are

also keep in mind that superman is not the BASELINE of overpowered; you can be slightly weaker or even MUCH weaker than superman and still be "overpowered"

wrong
fucking right

that was the only entertaining scene of that JUSTice league movie, the scene where superman comes back to life, gets pissed, and starts curbstomping everyone, including wonder woman

because that's what superman does

the purpose of his character is to be uninteresting
Quote
except it literally does because you cant be overpowered when everyone else is relatively as powerful as you... overpowered within the context of power scaling is a comparative statement
>everyone else
>two characters

so they basically have to find ways to make him WEAKER just to make him more interesting as a character

wonder woman has faster combat speed and martial arts ability
which literally doesn't matter when superman could obliterate her with a single punch

Quote
martian manhunter has greater battle intelligence and more powers
which literally doesn't matter, because two overpowered characters does not make one less overpowered

Quote
shazam has pretty much everything superman had plus magic affinity (which superman is just as susceptible to as everyone else).
which literally doesn't matter, because two overpowered characters does not make one less overpowered

as for villains, it makes far more sense for villains to be OP anyway

I really hate the whole "I won't kill anyone no matter what :^)" kind of character, even when faced with real life shit. It's such a naive fucking thing.

Even this guy?
poster boy definition of a superhero, like say Superman (who they're finally trying to change from being boring/OP, which is hard to do, but that's a different story).
If only I gained a penny every time someone repeated this hilarious misconception.
Cryptonite

wow

It's not like he can do literally anything else and makes all other Superheroes kinda pale in comparison.

Anyone who actually thinks Dark Souls is "hard" really just has a failure to learn how to actually learn and adapt, because once you get the basic formula down, every game is easy bar a few bosses with each installment. But even then that's not the majority of the game.
i think the perception comes more from the period in which the game was released, because triple-A games that required as much of the player's attention as dark souls were running a huge deficit in the last decade

almost every SP campaign of the average video game released in the past ten years is fairly braindead and can be beaten on autopilot, which bred a generation of players who took that for granted

so by the time demon's souls came out, nobody could really get into it at first, because it was a lot more punishing than a lot of other popular games at the time (gta 4, fallout 3, oblivion, fucking CoD), which probably made it seem perhaps more challenging than it really is

also, if you didn't have a background in fighting games, RPGs, other action games like it, or even rhythm games (all of which are relatively niche genres), i can understand why someone may consider it one of the hardest games ever, because if all you've been playing is CoD and elder scrolls (which was true of most people at the time), you're gonna have a hard time with the souls series

Okay, but it still seems strange that there's only a point's difference between "unbelievably boring garbage" and "not a terrible show", or how you can spend a paragraph talking about how great Angel's Egg is and then give a seven. What cost it the last three points, if you had nothing negative worth saying about it?

I wasn't expecting a serious response to that so I'm just going to keep pretending you throw a dart blindfolded to decide the scores.
i kinda see what you mean

i rated LotGH a 4/10 because, despite describing it as "unbelievably boring garbage," it's a matter of fact that there are several shows that have left me in a MUCH worse mood after finishing them

like, LotGH may have been boring, but it never outright annoyed or offended me, like TTGL or dragon maid have

paradoxically, there's a part of me that actually likes watching 2/10 or even 1/10 shows MORE than i enjoy watching 4/10s, because they can have that so-bad-it's-good quality about them

whereas 4/10s are just plain ol' bad, and don't have any entertainment value whatsoever

it's kinda like this



so that might explain why i tend to be harsher and more dismissive with my 4/10s, because they're not even fun to rant about

none of this shit is hard and fast though, and different cases are due to vary wildly based on the context

as for angel's egg's 7/10, it very well could be an 8/10, i just want to rewatch it
